Ibadan does not belong to the class of others listed above reason being that it is just a senior village.
I love staying in Ibadan anyway because its peaceful, calm, no traffic, the people are friendly though most of them are a bit timid.
I love the place ad can build to live there any moment.

In terms of absolute direction from the centre (Abuja), calabar is located southeast .. There's nothing like south-south in the cardinal points. It was just a geopolitical coinage.

Nigeria is a fascinating destination,
blessed with amazing cities and
towns. Most of these cities and
towns are known across the country
for their fascinating attractions,
beautiful scenery, natural resources
and cultural heritage. Abuja, the
capital city is one of the most loved
cities in the country. There are other
major cities in Nigeria which are very
much loved and visited. Some are
loved for their homeliness and
hospitable demeanour, others are for
their economic and business
advantages; yet more are loved for
their availability of fun, tourism and
vacation spots.
We’ve scouted about, dug around and
browsed the Internet for
recommendations from Nigerians,
and tourists, and we still came up
with a definitive list of the most
loved cities in Nigeria. Therefore, in
no particular order, here are the most
loved cities in Nigeria to visit:

1. Ibadan....
It’s also called the ‘ancient city’ and
it’s the state capital of Oyo. It’s

with local and international markets
and malls. This city is known for

levels of immigration. Abuja is
Nigeria’s seat of power and it is
believed that in Abuja, life is good.
Whether rich, middle class or poor,
there somehow is a place for all. It
is also considered a highly business
destination. While in Abuja,
experience a different kind of
sightseeing that will make your visit
memorable. Places like Jabi Lake,
Silverbird Cinema and Millennium
Park are really cool spots to unwind
and have fun. For folks who love to
shop, some of the big shopping
stores in Abuja will give you value for
your money.

3. Jos
‘J town’ as it is popularly called is
one of the “cool” and most
loved cities in the northern region of
Nigeria. Aside from its recent crisis,
the city is a lot of fun and people
love it particularly for the weather
and serene environment. The
southern part of Jos is said to be
peaceful and the people there are
really accommodating. What’s more?
The standard of living in Jos is very
affordable. It also boasts a number
of attractions including two
museums, a wildlife park and game
reserve, breathtaking waterfalls and
striking hills and rocks. Jos is a
beautiful town and is a really nice
place to raise a family or live.

watered by the Great Kwa and
Calabar rivers, the city is home to a
variety of attractions such as Obudu

Ibadan is among the earliest developed settlement, It is better regarded as a settlement

a coinage that will stand gladly cos of some external interests

Yes it is the largest city. I guess in your opinion, it's Lagos abi. Lagos is not a singular city. It is a city of cities with their respective Obas. Different city communities make up Lagos. Oshodi, ikorodu, etc have their Obas. So in other words, Lagos is made up of different cities put together. But Ibadan is a singular largest city with just an Oba.

i just wait make i nor see warri before...we for wear one pant fight for here

OK nah..........

I tink say u nr 1 put Warri b4 you for see pepper way go solidify your yansh. U get luck.

Hehe Illorin, Lagos nr vex eh cuz Warri nr dey carry last
