However, almost all political institutions and foreign embassies continue to be located in Abidjan. Abidjan has one of the biggest seaports in Sub-sahara Africa.

Franck Gbahia yeah ivorian i'll die ivoirian
@ZEL DRIS who owns yours ?
Yourselves ?
Abuja for me is West Africa's flagship city when it comes to city layout, roads, green spaces and monuments.
I think of Abidjan as a smaller version of Lagos. Has the nice parts but just like Lagos has lots of slums lurking around.
I like Abidjan and I think it's time Ivory Coast ramps up development in new capital so it could take shape like Abuja
@@deu8894 I agree with your statement.
And I can swear you are from ivory coast 😂
What about Lome Togo 😑😑🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬
you didn't show the beauty of dakar ! plus it's one of the smallest cities in senegal not the largest! ( area)! dakar is beautiful
Why’s you didn’t mentioned about the great cities of Casablanca & Rabat, Morocco in this video about West Africa in 2020?
Morocco is in north Africa
@Darline WilliamsI didn't mean north of the world I meant north Africa, infact lemme be precise northwestern africa, you can google it out
@Darline Williams yes there is when the are dividing the geopolitical zones, as there is west and east africa
Lol
Morocco doesn't even consider itself part of Africa, much less West Africa.
Where all my Liberian are ?😂🤣🤭🤔♥️👇👇🙏🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷

Senegal🇸🇳 and Gambia🇬🇲 in late 2022 and Ghana🇬🇭 in late 2023.
You want to say that even Liberia and Freetown is more bautiful to Conakry Guinea that's is a lie
I think you were drunk before you made this video. I have lived in Nigeria, Abidjan and Accra, you are not serious
Bro what's your problem ?? Oh you mean Abidjan is beautiful than Lagos? You are right 100%,and I agree with you. Abidjan is far beautiful than Lagos, that's very very true. Abuja too is comfortably sitting at the 5th position ooh. I even heard that if not for the intervention of Freetown , she would have sat on the 6th position where Freetown has occupied now.
You don’t seam to know much about any of these cities if you gonna list Abidjan as #2. Abidjan is the most developed city in west Africa and from your accent I can tell you’re from Nigeria. How you gonna tell me Lagos is #1 knowing very well that Abuja is more developed than Lagos right now?
It should have been Abidjan then Accra then Abuja than Dakar then Lagos
My brother don't be biases...Accra is more beautiful than Abuja Nigeria?...in West Africa Nigeria has first 4 cities
My beautiful city Freetown
Abuja is far more developed than Accra. I am sure you have never been there
@S E P I am sure your ass have never been there
You are sick in the brain .
West African cities are poor East African cities are rich
Who knows your position in your family..
Lol Lagos is richer than some East African countries.
@@onyiiilo378 All East African countries. West Africa has both a higher GDP and gdp PER CAPITA as well as industrial base than than East Africa. All without becoming Chinese colonies too.....
Only one state in Nigeria can buy East Africa
Brother try and make your research well, you are saying most beautiful and not most developed. And when you are talking of most beautiful city in Africa not just in west Africa, Abuja is second to cape town.am a Nigerian what's make Lagos more beautiful than Abuja and the rest?
