The ancient city of ibadan unfortunately was overtaken by Lagos as a commercial capital. It's gradually taking its place as companies are gradually leaving Lagos for ibadan.

Kukuma say you went to an ancient church in Ibadan...





BTW, what will it cost the government of Oyo State to wash all those 'BROWN ROOFS'?






THE IMAGE BELOW THOUGH...

Ok

Who does that ?

Okay

Ibadan lomo Omo Layipo, now you know the real Ibadan, awa lomo ajegbin jekarahun, Afikarahun for ori mu, awa lomo agesinkole,Ilu ti ole tin jare olohun

We got many nice and historical places in Nigeria but the government has failed to see the hidden wealth in tourism..well I believe one day I will visit all these places

CHECK MY PROFILE, your electronics at best prices

Nice. Good job travelwaka. Unfortunately, Nigeria has refused to take tourism seriously. Countries like Turkey, Dubai, Greece are all making money for their economies from tourism.

The silly comments about brown roofs are quite ridiculous. These are things other countries would have turned around and packaged as a relic of the past. But Nigerians choose to wallow in ignorance and use it as a tribal slur. It's all your loss at the end of the day.

Brown roofs everywhere

Omg,see brown roofs.

it never stop being the capital of yorubaland. The entire yoruba was developing it before the creation of states. That was why it was forgotten buh ibadan is gradually standing back on it's feet.
