- Raw, Unfiltered, Inside the Real Streets of Abidjan Cote D'Ivoire
#Abidjan is a city on the southern Atlantic coast of Côte d'Ivoire, in West Africa. It's the country’s major urban center, with skyscrapers rising above the Ébrié Lagoon. Modern landmarks include La Pyramide, a ziggurat-like building. St. Paul's Cathedral is a swooping structure tethered to a massive cross. Artwork, cultural relics and handicrafts are on display at Le Musée des Civilisations de Côte d'Ivoire.

Much love from Nigeria 🇳🇬.Ghanaians come and see how a capital city should look like ..
Abidjan is beautiful, no packaging, nobody tell you go here ,don't go here,everywhere you turn to is so beautiful, 24million people, 24/7 electricity, peaceful country above all they are humble people love from a nigerian 🇳🇬 brother ❤
Wow so nice from you bro 😊. This is what they don’t show to the world 🌎. They show only slum when it comes to Africa. Love from Ivory Coast 🇨🇮. A word to this UA-camr :
Thank you for this great video about my country .really do appreciate the great work you are doing in general about African countries. Keep it up
We love you our Nigerian brothers and sisters ❤️❤️
Nous vous aimons aussi
thank you dear mine
Abidjan is very nice,plateau is African Manhattan, very nice
And don't forget they have d second largest migrants from Africa countries and still behave well to them,I have never heard of xenophobia there. Love❤ from Sierra Leone 🇸🇱🇸🇱
You are so right on that.
Ivorians are very humble and friendly people.
You bragging about being a nuisance in foreign countries, what a delusional statement
Who got the first ?!
two thirds of ivorians have parents who immigrated from all over west africa.
@@briopalumpus8676 lies
As a Nigerian I must admit that this is the best CBD in the whole of West Africa. Well planned, organization on point, good road networks, better and well maintained buildings, no hawkers.
Exactly but I doubt whether it will be the same in 20-30 years time. There will be population growth and if not managed well will pose a big problem
You're right but there are hawkers not just in plateau, when you visit places like Adjamé or Abobo, you'd see more than enough hawkers there
@@georgepresley5120 during the french back rebellion, that invaded the country from Burkina Faso, in 2000 till 2011, the country was cut in two, with the rebels occupying the North to the center of the country, and established their headquarters in Bouaké the second largest city of the country after Abidjan. And the loyal forces of the legitimate government then, occupying the center from Yamoussoukro the capital to all the south. The population from the rebel held areas fled to Abidjan and the population of that city had been increased since. Cities like Bouaké never recovered although the man backed by France and the rebels has been in power since 2011. The big cities of the country like Bouaké, Korhogo, Man, Daloa, San Pedro, Abengourou have been neglected since the french backed government has been put in power. So everything is now concentrated in Abidjan since the crisis and rebels war.
The city's CBD is nice and planned but then see those electric cables should have been underground instead of the way they are currently.
In Abuja's CBD, cables are underground and roads are wider.
@@joemartinsemezieatueyi498 they can’t be perfect but this is great planning and development for any city in Africa and way ahead in west Africa. I mean even Tokyo has the dangerous looking overhead electric cables and wires in the air…and Tokyo is pretty close to perfect as a city in global terms. I’m British but I can see how well Abidjan city is managed from this video, I’m impressed and thankful that this has been shared with us. I now would consider visiting in future but East Africa is my next trip
Beautiful city love from Nigeria 🇳🇬🇨🇮🇨🇮.
Much love from Kenya 🇰🇪 to Abidjan and all Ivorians,.. I like the way your city is developed and you don't make noises about it,
it's because you're not a French speaker. Just as there is a “rivalry” between Ghana and Nigeria. there is the same rivalry between Dakar and Abidjan on the French-speaking side haha
@@djeffx92 I never knew that,.. but I don't see Senegalese in the comment section with negative comments, or they are warming up 😂😂
@@djeffx92 Nigeria and Ghana isn't rivalry though.. Ghanaian started disrespecting Nigerians right from GHANAMUSTGO time , in west Africa Nigeria controls 60% of everything, from economy, population, cities infrastructures etc , some countries in west Africa are just like some states in Nigeria.. each state in Nigeria has at least two cities
@@titusngetich1222 as it's an English channel, there are few French speakers here, maybe that's why. But hey, the Dakar-Abidjan rivalry is happening in a more sympathetic atmosphere. In general the inhabitants of these two countries appreciate each other but from time to time we like to say "yes but our country is more beautiful than yours" and vice versa
@Nik Zahui yes in "real life": senegal/ivory coast, cameroon/ivory coast, ghana/nigeria, kenya/tanzania etc.. we like to make fun of it nicely but everyone generally loves each other Afterwards, it's just on social networks that some frustrated people try to stir up hatred

People need to realize that Côte d’Ivoire was on a great path to become a relatively advanced country but the different crises experienced by them didn’t allowed them to. Right now they are building many infrastructure not only in Abidjan but in others cities as well , the country just need another 10 years of stability really.
You have people from France , Lebanon, Congo , Cameroun, and other French speaking countries that always travel to Côte d’Ivoire. Oh and it’s not that they don’t make noise about Abidjan they do 😂 but it’s just that they don’t do it in English as Ivorians say “ même Paris connais Abidjan est le plus dou au monde”
Translation: even Paris knows that Abidjan is the best”
Tres bien dit et commentaire tres honnete. Ca me fait marrer au fond de moi quand ils disent qu'on ne fait pas de bruit. Ivoirien, sa bouche, Ah Ah Ah, c'est juste qu'on le fait en francais avec les autres pays francophones et pas beaucoup en anglais.

@@miss7968 abuja is better
@@Robio_scorpio Abuja is not better than this. Shut up you nigerian
From what i have seen/heard so far, i think life generally in Abidjan, the Ivorians economic capital is pretty cool for anyone seeking a better life to what we have in most Nigerian cities. The constant electricity, less traffic, good road network, working government, no omele issue, no agbero, good and affordable internet supply, mouth watering foods, gorgeous women and the ever ready French no bribe police and the tranquility it has to offer makes its more preferable destination to settle in. Abidjan should be called the paradise of West Africa.
I think I see myself moving to this great city in some years to come. Lot of love from Nigeria 😊🇳🇬💓
A Nigerian living in Abidjan past 4 years Plateau was my old neighborhood -Ibis Hotel -these are my jogging/walking routes-(they increased my rent so I moved) hope you visit my new neighborhood Angre 8eme Tranche!!!...way more busy here!! good job
Cool.iam ivorian.i looking for a english speaker to improve m'y english.

@@corneliusjoseph6207 go and visite. I am sure you will love it. Be incusitif as you can find a good gem
This is a country we should all be proud of in Africa. Thank you African Tigress for showcasing it as it is. Despite their past crisis they have bounced back stronger and more beautiful. A good place to visit and explore for investment.
Just make sure you can speak French else you would be in frustration. I was there 2019 and its a beautiful place but communication was a problem. I had to use my phone to communicate.
If it wasn’t the lack of dreams of certain African leaders. This country should been more advanced then this.

Another great video!! Ivory Coast is such a beautiful country. The roads are better than some of the ones I drive on here in Maryland. So wide and clean.
This city stands out amongst the top 3 most beautiful African cities…. It really stands out
This video has brought back the beautiful memories and experiences I had when I was living in Abidjan for some years, my only problem is the language barrier but Ivorians are more friendly and welcoming like Nigerians than in the East African country I'm temporary living now.

I am a Liberian, I was living in Ivory Coast from 2000 to 2002, but in Danane city. Beautiful country, delicious food with beautiful women and hard working men. We are only about 5 million plus people in Liberia with so many natural resources but our leaders failed to develop our small rich country Liberia 🇱🇷 Look and see how Ivory Coast in developing fast. Even tho they have corrupt leaders too but at least they love their country and they are doing their best to develop their country
We loveeeeeeeee our country more than anything all we have is our beautiful country we go back to build it more and more Ivory Coast 🇨🇮 is our pride ❤

This is one of the best African cities in west Africa. I don't even understand why someone in their right mind would compare this to some chaotic cities we're used to seeing! No motorbike no little yellow vehicles driving anyhow.
Kris Rob little yellow vehicles 😂🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣
All I can say is wow, this reminds me of a very nice version of Miami. Definitely a jewel of Africa, if I could do it again I would invest in Ivory Coast 🇨🇮 than Ghana 🇬🇭. Ghana 🇬🇭 is full of corruption, the government is to influenced by the west. This is why it’s even so hard to get anything done there. This is the best organized and cleanest African city I’ve seen in west Africa.
What did you invest in Ghana, that you can’t replicate in Côte d’Ivoire?
@David Cecconi You have to be more specific than this, why is the question? You have Lebanese, Indians, Chinese, Nigerians, Diasporas making fortunes not committing suicide. If there are scammers out there their names and companies should be exposed, it’s like saying don’t invest in America and then leaving the specifics of the why blank.
@@DD-bs7sy when I first came to Ghana 🇬🇭 it was a few years before the year of return, opening a business even then was a hassle. If they heard even a slight foreign accent your price go up by 2/3 dealing with anything smh. I’m not saying this behavior doesn’t exist in Ivory Coast but for Ghana 🇬🇭 to be so far behind and still developing. They need to be more business friendly. If you don’t have anyone on the ground doing leg work for you that’s not a local you will get little to nothing done. Ghana 🇬🇭 has at least 50 years before the laws get caught up to protect investors and it’s own citizens, these are major barriers for the country that’s slowing its growth. Ghana produce literally the most electricity ⚡️ in west Africa, Ghana 🇬🇭 is supposed to be the most developed in west Africa period but because of this but corruption and citizens not demanding more has slowed Ghana down. I would know because I’ve invested massive amounts of money in business in Ghana 🇬🇭.
@@Africa-for-Africans you won't regret on ivory coast, it's more international than Ghana. You only need good people to guide you

Thank for your nice video, Abidjan is so beautiful. I live in UK but this City look like Europe or New York
It is good for west Africans in particular to know their history. Am surprised a lot of west Africans are saying that they did not know that ABIDJAN has always been the best city in west Africa. IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE CASE. I think though the HDI is a good measure of development too
Exactly
Many people heard about the country during its war years maybe that's why.
West Africans countries that speak English are close minded when it comes go French speaking countries that's why...but they Don't know what they are missing
I'm from Liberia and my dad who had traveled all over Europe and the US always said Abidjan was his favorite city. I can't remember if it was because of the beauty or he if he had the best time there. Either way I would love to see first myself.
Right !
Amazing! Abdjan looks so much like Paris! A very beautiful city. I would love to visit one day.
Abidjan the proud of West Africa 🙏
Beautiful POV footage, my Tigress! Abidjan is such a calmer metropolitan environment than other west African centers of commerce...and a lot cleaner! Thank you for taking us along!
This place has really opened my eyes to how far Accra is behind despite all it’s hype it’s past few years. It’s severely lagging behind other regional cities. I believe Ivory Coast deserves the spot for 2nd most developed mainland West African country ahead of Ghana and Abidjan the 3rd most developed city. To say otherwise is a disservice to Ivory Coast.
They need to ditch there French puppet of a president though…
RISE AND ALL HAIL WEST AFRICA!
Make sure that you remove all the Chinese and English puppets in your country first. We Ivorian we will really appreciate that.

Thank you African Tigress for this marvelous visite. Please repost this with a French title, in order to get french speakers subscribers.
Very Beautiful, clean city with wide road's . Thanks for taking us along ❤❤🙏.
I'm from Ivory Coast.Thanks for promoting our capital city which less known by English people.This beautiful city was built in the late 70s and early 80s after the first president Felis Houphouët Boigny met president Kennedy in the 60s.So there is almost nothing new since late 80s.Thanks to social media that helps us show the world that Africa was build even before mot of East Asian countries like Singapou,Corea,Japan.The late president Felix promised to build a city that looks like New York (Abidjan is surrounded by a lagoona Ebrie ). Unfortunately the development and major constructions stopped after his death in 1993 and resumed after 2012.This country would be far ahead in development if it didn't have almost a 20 years Crisis.
And the country has a very diverse economy 40% of the world cocao production with Ghana 20% totaling 60%,natural gas and oil gold and diamond and all the agricultural products you could imagine.The country reaches 90% of electricity coverage even very small villages have acces to power at very reasonable cost compares to many countries and potable water is available in most areas is in progress but a few cities have issue with their water facilities with the growing population .There still much to be done.Most of ivorian think Ghana and Nigeria are far ahead of them.Whats the reality there compares to Ivory Coast
Mon beau pays .... la chaleur ivoirienne
Tu es unique

Abijan is such a beautiful and clean city, already in ❤️ with Abijan
Since the 60's, Ivory Coast was already the most developed colony of France in West Africa. . Ivory Coast had the largest french population outside of France until the 80's.
Many of them lived in different part of the city, mainly in Plateau, the downtown of Abidjan and in Zone 4. in the southern part of Abidjan.
Ivory Coast also had the largest Lebanese population outside of Lebanon. Most of them live also in Southern Abidjan in Zone 4, Marcory Residentiel, and Bietry. So you have different parts of Abidjan which has a middle class demographic. It is not all concentrated in one part of Abidjan. The rich and middle class Ivorians are also in Northern Abidjan, mostly in Cocody, and Riviera. When the country became independent in 1960, Houphouet Boigny, the first President, developed the country since the 60's. Most of the buildings you see in plateau were built since the 60's, 70's and 80's under Houphouet Boigny. Ivory Coast were only comparable to South Africa and Kenya. Even Nigeria although economically richer and militarily more powerful, and larger in size and population was not as developed as Ivory Coast. The downfall of Ivory Coast started in the 2000 after the death of Houphouet and a struggle for his succession. The crisis ended up in a french backed coup and later a rebellion that plunged the country into a civil war. The rebels were put in power by the french and they are still rulling the country till today in a very autocratic rule. Although the country has taken a step back as far democracy and human rights and human development are concerned, the country is finding its way back to normalcy and its development is slowly but progressively getting back in motion. So it is nice to see the country back to normalcy after twenty years of crisis and a civil war.

I think you will find Rhodesia had the 2nd largest white population in Africa until 1980 when Zimbabwe got it’s independence - Rhodesia was also the bread basket of sub Saharan Africa with the 2nd best economy and infrastructure in Africa after South Africa - Rhodesia and South Africa were considered developing countries rather than 3rd world. Mugabe got hold of newly independent Zimbabwe and the country prospered for 20 years, and in the year 2000 the wheels fell off the economy he single handedly ran the country into the ground - sacrificed the economy to hold onto power. A very sad state of affairs.
Im still trying to figure what could be beneficial about having the largest Lebanese population?

Abidjan looks so clean and beautiful. No street hawkers loitering around. No trash, open gutters and filth. Accra Ghana shame on us.
It so clean and beautiful
The greatness of this city is that there is no no tuktuk and motor cycle taxi nonsense unlike many African cities...bravo ivorians for maintaining well your city

The closest sub Saharan country to South Africa and Namibia as far as road infrastructures is concerned.
True I think it's even better than Kenya and Rwanda
Infrastructure isnt behind either
@@africanrenaissance5298 its better than Kenya& Rwanda in infrastructure development , roads networks etc no comparison, Abidjan& libreville in gabon has first world infrastructure development those are facts ,even after civil war still able to bounce back, must Africa know only Ivorians music less exposure to their country
@@africanrenaissance5298 African Tigress already confirmed- their highways are dual carriages
@@africanrenaissance5298 Thank you !
Beautiful country thank you for showing us TIGRESS ❤️ .
Wow I never no Abidjan is well developed
La Côte d’Ivoire 🇨🇮 My country of birth… Abidjan petit Paris !
WoW! Thank you very much for this video. It remind me when l was working for a Canadian ngo. Our office was located in the plateau district, that funny looking building you just passed called les pyramids. Wow, plateau in those days was the place for business and entertainment. It was the location of all major banks and supermarkets. Mon Dieu, merci beaucoup madame pour ce beau souvenir du plateau et la ville d’Abidjan. Thank you very much and enjoy your stay in Ivory Coast Abidjan la belle!
