gbanikiti: oh i see, you don't even know Ibadan. All those areas you mentioned are part of Ibadan city. Mokola is not a city on its own but an area in Ibadan city, so are other areas you mentioned. It is like saying Upper Iwekka is a city in Onitsha, which is just an area in Onitsha. Get it? 6 Likes |

I posted this on political section as an eye opener, ibadan needs to be restored to what we know it as. And it takes the youth to know this. If ibadan be created as a state by the confab meeting, it still doesn't change anything with bad leadership. |

This topic is very silly. Nobody ever said Ibadan was the largest city in Africa. Maybe in the past but no today. Ibadan is ranked #16 largest city in Africa. Lagos is #1 in terms of population. |

gbanikiti: you are so clueless dude. what is the definition of a city? ibadon is a city because it has a population of over 1 million people, because it has a large settlement area (though the layout may be poor or lack basic infrastructure). dont confused poor planning, lack of infrastructure and old houses together. Nigeria is a country of slum...every city you go to in Nigeria is a form of slum, the situation is worse in the North b 7 Likes |

@ OP Ibadan is a city. Lagos is a state and Lagos Island is a town Lets be clear. Ibadan is still and will still be the biggest city in west africa. You have not been to the whole of Ibadan, trust me, molete, challenge, bodija, cocoa house, etc is not the whole of ibadan Also notice ibadan is a continuous city unlike Lagos were LGs are WELL divided |
Re: Ibadan Isn't, Lagos Is The Largest City In Africa. by red101(f): 1:38am On Aug 29, 2014 |
yea that's true. the answer will be different depending on whether you are talking about size of land mass vs population. |

Ronke001: Lagos state not lagos city.Thank u my sis,this issue has been discuss sometimes ago.Now this is d solution. There are many cities in Lagos state i.e.Surulere, ikotun, igando, ikorodu (just to mention but a few )and all these cities have kings compare to Ibadan that can only have streets or maga streets. A state can house many cities but a city can not. So, Ibadan is a city while Lagos is a State that housed many cities. |
