For some of you who don't know the SW, the OP is just being dubious. Just imagine an Anambra or Enugu man telling you that Nri is the largest city in Africa because Nri hegemony and culture starts after you cross Onitsha and extends far deep into Enugu state. We can as well have Awka Nri, Aguleri Nri, Ezeagu Nri, Agulu Nri, Adazi Nri etc. Back to Ibadan, I served in Gbongan, Ayedaade LGA in Osun state and anytime I was to board a bus to Ibadan or Lagos, immediately after the border town of Ikire, all hamlets, villages etc you see have an Ibadan suffix after its name, the real town Ibadan is still about 45mins after Ikire, just before you get to the old toll gate before you start getting a semblance of an urban area. So stop your exaggerated size of Ibadan and talk of Ibadan proper and its area. 2 Likes |

patrick89:You mean awka is paying 10k? In which country if I may ask. But who is talking of money here. They are talking of development, Don't shift goal post. If it is awka where I served, abeg, stop it. All jergos you wrote is full of pains you are going through and I don't care. You can hang yourself if you like. Awka is poo. You people are wretched that why you run to yorubaland. Very ingrate dirty tribe. Spit. |

Yyeske:Bros, na wa for you o. Wh9 talks say Ibadan is the largest 8n Africa, the whole world knows it is the largest in west Africa. I mean largest city in West Africa. Even akure will swallow 4 out of 5 southeastern states capitals and still remain. Disprove me on that. I am open to criticism but with fact. |
Re: Awka Should Be Ashamed Of Itself - Why Is It Underdeveloped? by Yyeske(m): 1:03pm On Dec 01, 2017 |
Michael004:We are talking of the city proper bros because I know those villages and hamlets after Ajesire dam on river Osun after Ikire are not part of Ibadan city proper even if they are usually included in the landmass of Ibadan. Ibadan just extends from BAT factory and toll gate area along the express from Lagos to Ojoo area and a bit along Ibadan-Ilorin road and from around Abeokuta express towards the southwest of the city to the northern fringes and toll gate around the Ibadan-Ife road. I'm not saying it is not big but the built up area of Ibadan isn't as you guys are exaggerating. |

uglyafonja:you see how dull you are? you illiterates only spread one angle as the picture of Ibadan (a 3000sq km city) and that's the angle close to the bowers tower which is the tower on the highest hill in Ibadan. http://thenationonlineng.net/bowers-tower-and-ibadans-historic-hills/ the city started growing from around the hills over 400yrs ago when the first group of settles established Ibadan after the fall of the Oyo empire so that side of Ibadan is filled with very old buildings. some of them are as old as 100years!!! can you show the true skyline of a 3000sq km city in just a few pictures of the ancient (400yrs old) part of the city? the answer is no. any serious photographer who wants to show us the skyline of Ibadan will either use a drone or show us satellite pictures which are all over the thread. the pictures of the modern side of Ibadan are all on the first and second page for you to see. I'm emphasizing on the size to show you the foolishness of your brothers who only want to see the brown roof part of Ibadan!!! and I still stand by my point that the modern side which is at least 2000sqkm (2/3 of the city) dwarfs the biggest city in the south east (Enugu) which is just 600sqkm!!! 2 Likes |

OMANBALA1:I promised not to comment on this thread but this shameless show of hypocrisy got my attention. One of your idiotic brothers with the moniker ugly.afonja has created more than 5000 denigrating Yoruba threads within the last 48hrs yet when a Yoruba guy decided to return the favor, we are suddenly more tribalistic,bigoted and very hateful. I refuse to insult you even though I think you deserve much worse than that. I guess you are a blind bat who only sees when yorubas decide to pay back your bitter kinsmen in their own coin, but never notice when they start the troubles. We havent forgotten how you bitter lots started nairaland tribal war, or how yorubas gave you a long rope before retaliating. You deserve every hatred thrown at you and even much worse. It is ironic that the most hateful, most bitter, most spiteful tribe is complaining about others dishing them a taste of their own poison. Such an hypocrite. 1 Like |

LasGidiOwner:see him repeating the same foolishness. buy a drone and leave the hill. use a drone and capture from where you can see cocoa house and Femi Johnson. also capture other parts of the city away from the hill. you can't capture the bad part of new york (Harlem, east newyork, Brownsville, etc) and define the whole city with the bad part alone. it's foolishness!!! 1 Like |

Jaideyone: Oga, No need to buy a drone. You can see even much more on satellite than drone. Satellite technology is just one click away and there will be no need for deceitful arguments when the truth is quite obvious. You know the bitter truth about the "rusted roofs" The place is a huge slum being hidden and labelled "Biggest city in Africa" Which city? We knew it's not a city but an eyesore, lack of toilets and sanitation facilities etc, but kept quiet not to ruffle any feathers Ibadan is the same exact Nigerian version of Kibera. Even Kibera is better planned and less a slum than Ibadan. Yet, it is the place that insults other parts of the country as villages. So people exposed it for what it truly is. 3 Likes

Yyeske:good let's pick from toll gate around BAT to moniya (not Ojo). how long will it take you to drive from toll gate (around BAT) to moniya if there is no hold up? type distance from challenge to moniya and you will get 28km if you fly in a straight line like a bird. apata to moniya is even longer (but Ibadan actually starts just after omi adio). so how long will it take you to drive from omi adio to moniya? omi adio to moniya is at least 80/90km drive!!! and that is how big Ibadan is. now what about Ologuneru(on the way to Ido after Eleyele) to Adegbayi(after Alakia on the way to osun state)? I'm only engaging because you arr more reasonable than your fellow south easterners. now try and picture those areas of the city (if you know those places) and tell me the area won't be up to 3000sqkm as reported online. I can comfortably bring out 4 Enugu(Enugu city) which is about 600sq km) out of Ibadan!!! |

Yyeske:How is it possible to add what is not part of it to it. No part was added to Ibadan, those part are on there own. That is the fact. |
Re: Awka Should Be Ashamed Of Itself - Why Is It Underdeveloped? by Yyeske(m): 2:48pm On Dec 01, 2017 |
Jaideyone:The modern parts of Ibadan doesn't exceed the Oluyole, New Ife road, New Bodija and Bodija, GRA, Sango, Challenge, areas around Iwo road, Agbowo and some few other places, don't think you can teach me Ibadan because I can sell you in the real Ibadan built up areas. 4/10th of Ibadan is old and if non contiguous parts of Ibadan are included, it is up to 9/10. 1 Like |

Michael004:Google map can help you, the built up areas of Ibadan isn't bigger than Lagos, just that the total Ibadan landmass is usually included into the city and making it look bigger than usual because of historical connection. I can as well say Nri is the biggest city in Nigeria since its hegemony and culture covers a large part of Anambra and Enugu States |
Re: Awka Should Be Ashamed Of Itself - Why Is It Underdeveloped? by Jaideyone(m): 2:59pm On Dec 01, 2017 |
Yyeske:it exceeds those areas by far!!! Lol Include Apata, dugbe, mokola, old-ife road (Alakia/isebo), new Ife road, Eleyele, Jericho, Ologuneru, Olodo, akobo, bashorun, ile titun, so many more ou didn't mention. You want to sell me in Ibadan just because you stayed a few years here? Big joke. I spent 5yrs of primary school, 6years of secondary school and I've been working in Ibadan for 5yrs since I graduated apart from the 2yrs I spent in Owerri and calabar!!! Ibadan is my home. I will burst all your lies. The old part of Ibadan is less than 1/3 |
Re: Awka Should Be Ashamed Of Itself - Why Is It Underdeveloped? by OreMI22: 2:59pm On Dec 01, 2017 |
Jaideyone: You know your Ibadan. If i had posted anywhere else but Ibadan you would be first to say it. So stop playing games and accept the truth. You can see anywhere in the world on satellite now and Ibadan cannot continue to be hidden. There needs to be 20 years plan to de-slum Ibadan. Stop hiding the fact. Zoom what?? Does Ibadan even have streets in 95% of it's districts? |
