i think you need to visit the african city thread to see that there are many nice cities in africa, not including Northern Africa, and South Africa.

follow the link http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showth...89#post3364189 about 30 sub-saharan cities are on display on the thread and hundreds of pics over the 9 pages.

Nice, Nairobi is known to be one of Africa's best and nicest cities. I have a friend from Kenya who told me lots of stories about the country.

Well there are poor ppl in Kenya, just like any other place in Africa. But it's considered one of the better African countries if you know what I mean.

That's right. There are many poor peoples in Kenya, but Kenya has always been just about the strongest country in East Africa.
