- Abuja is the capital and eighth most populous city of Nigeria.Situated at the centre of the country within the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), it is a planned city built mainly in the 1980s based on a master plan by International Planning Associates (IPA), a consortium of three American planning and architecture firms made up of Wallace, Roberts, McHarg & Todd (WRMT - a group of architects) as the lead, Archisystems International (a subsidiary of the Howard Hughes Corporation), and Planning Research Corporation. The Central Business District of Abuja was designed by Japanese architect Kenzo Tange. It replaced Lagos, the country's most populous city, as the capital on 12 December 1991.
Abuja is giving abroad vibe too neat
Yeah! Very comparable to places in developed nations like Canada,UK,USA,etc
@@ogungbesanoluniyi3662 lol you dey crazy, this is just a resident place,
The light was red @10:51. Responsibility and respect for the law begins with the little things!
ABSOLUTELY!!!!
It’s giving upper class neighborhood just like old GRA in Port harcourt and Ikoyi in Lagos. I Didn’t know there was a GRA in Abuja
No GRA in Abuja.

Abuja wonderful
Thank you so guy
Why did the driver say it is called MANtama @ 1:45? It's not, it's Maitama. There is no GRA in Abuja. The whole of Abuja is Federal Government Territory. Hmmm, a few bits of misinformation by the driver in the video, though.

Suggestions: When you talk about a building, turn the 📷 to show it.
I agree.
Ecwa church is the biggest denomination in northern Nigeria
That's Evangelical Church Winning All formerly Evangelical Church of West Africa
Lokoja is the closest to Abuja and kaduna city......and Oga narrator, Abuja to Jos takes 3hours even with the bad roads. Either you follow Akwanga or Kaduna. Kaduna road is bad, but Akwanga is relatively smooth all the way to forest.
Nice video,I commend your effort in showing Abuja to the world,however your tour guide really fed you with wrong information's.
1. There are no vigilantes operating within the city centre,perhaps maybe in the satellite towns and those illegal settlements.
2. There is no GRA in Abuja,I have lived in Abuja since May 28th 1998 and i lived at the city centre. What we have are districts and cadastral zones.
3. The large expanse of compound you called guest house is the safe house built to house newly elected president of Nigeria before he is eventually sworn in as Nigeria President.
4. That main road you accessed from Maitama is Sheu Shagari way.
5. The building you called NYSC Secretariat is called International Training Institute,it is owned by CBN.
6. The express road you called Banex road is Ahmadu Bello way,it is the longest road in Abuja apart from the main express from Zuba to AYA in Asokoro. It starts from National legislative Quarters in Apo District running through Garki 2 District,Central Business District,Wuse 2 District,Jahi district and it terminate at the bridge leading to the largest Estate in Africa called Gwarimpa Estate located close to Life Camp.
7. ECWA church means Evangelical Church Of West Africa. Its the main church of the indigenous Gbagyi people.
8. Amala joint is peculiar to the Yoruba's and the cab drivers who are mainly from Ilesha in Osun State. Am a Yoruba man but I will tell you the truth.
9. Kado Estate was built by Late Lateef Jakande when he was Minister of work during Late Abacha regime,he equally spear headed the construction of Gwarimpa Estate.
10. No particular religion dominate the other in Abuja.
11. Abuja has the highest number of Estates in Nigeria except maybe Lagos.
12. The most beautiful district in Abuja now is Guzape and Katampe 2 districts respectively. However Maitama and Asokoro districts is occupied by the who is who in Nigeria. Basically all the districts are beautiful,no poor man can live in Abuja city.
12. Abuja is full with Mansions,an American man said he has not seen any city in the world that has the number of mansions like he had seen in Abuja. Every districts are full of mansions.
13. You can not get flats in Maitama and Asokoro Districts. It cost between N500 million to N2 billion to buy land or houses there,so how can you build flats on such properties,excepts you want to rent the boy's quarters of those houses.
Thank you so much for watching our videos. your comment means a lot to us
God bless and protect you more
Actually vigilantes are used in Abuja as security /protection. They are paid to protect communities and are actually a good thing. Not just in settlements they are even in Katampe Extension.
The house is not commissioner of police house,but the Inspector General of Police official residence.
@@sylviasworld9397 Thanks for the up date,I never knew they are guilding Katampe 2 extension.
Chaiee bro. Na fight? 😂
Abuja is the most cleaned city in Nigeria
It is Maitama not Mantama your tour guide was feeding you with wrong information
Mantama or maitama??🤷
IT LOOKS LIKE SOUTHERN CAL IFORNIA AND MODERN LIKE JAPAN I WONDER SO DEVLOP NIGERIA WE THOUGHT IT WILL BE TORN AND OLD BUILDINGS WITH OUT ANY COLORS AND DISORGANISED LIKE ANY THIRD WORLD CO UNTRY . IT IS LIKE WEST MODERN GOOD TO SEE IT
You can't rely on CNN or Al Jazeera for the truth my brother!!
They are forever pushing false narrative on Nigeria and other developing countries, they never get tired!
Thank goodness for social media vlogging, they have been able to counter the propagandist western narrative !
👊🏾🇳🇬👊🏾🇳🇬!
Peter obi is not the owner of cash n carry
Your Tour guard is the worse I've come across in recent times 🤦
5:35 Federal housing Maitama... And Inspector general of police not commissioner of police house. Maitama has different sections... We're the video started that is maitama gana street... And he just made it up I have lived in maitama since 1995 we have never called it Gra🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Our house in maitama is bongalo and it's worth billions... So feel maitama is the most expensive... You didn't even take him to my side ministers Hill maitama... Not bad video thou
Wtf is that gbagi marriage process 😂😂 Nigeria ey 🤦
Nothing special about Abuja, no designated Bus stop, no Zebra crossing, no Tram tracks, and directions to other areas. What is all the noise about Abuja ? Casablanca or Rabat or Johannesburg, Abidjan and Angela are well organised cities and beneficial than Abuja. Not having Nice house, Wide lanes, or trees on the Road that make up a city.
You sounded depressed.
@@luckyadeloye3452. I don't get it or understand what you are saying brother. First and foremost, by the special grace of God i have criss-- crossed many cities in Africa. Cities like Casablanca, Johannesburg, Abidjan, and Kigali, these cities have European model or standard. You don't know me from Adam, you should never used such insulting word like depressed. By the special grace of God, i have live all my life in the western world. I am above 63 years, i am in a better position to compared Abuja and other cities in Africa. I am not comparing Abuja with New York, milan, Amsterdam, Berlin, and Madrid.
@@stephenandrewatikongu810 Why must European cities be standard for building cities in Africa? Who told you European cities are standards? Moreover, European cities are ancient cities. Can't we build cities in Africa that are first of their kinds? Why must you think like your colonial masters. Don't you watch cities in Singapore, South Korea and China? Was Singapore modelled after European cities? Must our architecture, designs, roads and signpost in Africa look European? Do we have same climatic conditions? I have traveled many cities in California and Texas and watched so many videos on cities in Asia and Europe and I can tell you that Abuja is a world-class city! Again, European cities are not in anyway standards. They are ancient cities!!!
@luckyadeloye3452 You are getting me completely wrong. I am not comparing Abuja with any of the western world cities. There's a sharp contrast and huge difference. My comparison is with a third world cities like Casablanca, Tunis, Johannesburg, Abidjan, Kigali, Tripoli, and cairo. You claimed that Abuja is a world class city. For me i don't see that or all the noise about Abuja. Brother, don't forget that, Abuja was denied the right to host International parliamentary meeting on the simple grounds that Abuja as a city don't have Government public transport system, no designated Bus stop, no Bus lane, and most of the traffic light are not working. Please i want you to visit Joburg, Casablanca and come and tell me the difference. Yes you are a Nigerian and you still have some percentage of Nigerian blood is running in you. This i understand, one should see the truth and said it. I can't compare Abuja with New York or Washington, the difference is 150 years in all ramifications.
Na that sun I Sha no like.
I love it 😍
@@sylviasworld9397 you live in abj?
It can be merciless especially in March and April
Na wa oh, these are talking about food with one meat or two meat! Are you people serious??
Which kind yeye juvenile chatting is that?
Too much red sands on the roads
No there's no red sand I thinks it's the camera Abuja has one of the best paved road
We're is the red sand?
Nothing like red sand
Is the color of the camera
They did the video under the sun
Eyes dey pain u
@@ominiekwe7241 OK no red sand but why do they allow people parking everywhere and I am trying to compare to a place like Capetown you know what i mean? They park on the side walk and on the grass and cars running g the red light is a no no, how hard is it to make laws and implement the laws so we can have the country of our dreams?
@@MajorrBison even to Europe you will see cars park everywhere even Asia sef
Looks dusty with pot holes
