I thought we were talking about Ilorin and Ibadan?
Did you even read my post?

You seem to always want to bring in Enugu. I find it funny when you say that a city with a functional international airport is not major while one with a non functional local airport is.

Post after post its all southern cities being mentioned as desirable.

ii. medical consideration; relating to the study or practice of medicine; "the medical profession'' in the said cities.

considering the level of sanitation, cheap and quality public health, and advance medical services practices in some of cities. Lagos, port Harcourt and Ibadan top the list.

IBADAN is a gold mine for all those who do not know of the great treasures of that city. I advise all youths who think they can make do with =N=50k salary/income to relocate to that city, you can even make do with =N=30k and a decent self contain apartment somewhere.
Its a big city, really big that you can get a plot of land for =N=300K or less and start a house of your own. There are loads of places that are new sites/settlements that are far better that new cities of Lagos. Ibadan is a place you can train your children the way you want them to be, to be exposed and conservative, to be religious and respectful and that city has some of the best schools at all levels.
If you are not a rich man you cannot enjoy Abuja, anything less than =N350k is suffering in Abuja and you will need a good car while that city can be boring except you are ready to cough out thousands to escape boredom or make do with joints in the outskirt of town.
Enugu is calm and serene but more expensive and too homogeneous. One of the beauty of Ibadan is the presence of people from other climes which present you opportunities to build companionship outside your cultural mentality.
In the next 5years, I see Ibadan competing with Ogun in industrial capacity and more in commerce as I also hope to get a nice structure there.
