It's true I'm not informed about Nigeria, but I'm fairly informed about India. From what I read, India is becoming a superpower by 2020, which is only 10 months away!
This is why I'm puzzled that Nigerian cities look cleaner, more prosperous, and better organized than Indian cities.
Don't underestimate most African states. They are quite developed and economically stable. I have traveled to many African states including Nigeria and can vouch for this. In all fairness to India, from my most recent trip there, the northern part of the country has really cleaned up during the past few years. Their Swash Bharat campaign has paid off.
