phantom:

Benin, the place is a huge disappointment.

kasiem:

Ado-ekiti will surelly take the lead.

Let's know the worst state capital you've visited and give reasons why you think it's the worst.

For me it's Lokoja. I don't know if there's are two Lokojas but the one i went to is a disgrace to any city in Nigeria. Even Agege is better than it. Infact, any town in Lagos(Egbeda, Iyana Ipaja, yaba) can be the capital of Kogi state. The state looks so dusty, the roads are in horrible shape etc.

Beaf:

You gats to be kidding!
No place on Earth is worse than Iyana Ipaja! It is the definition of the word, hellhole.

Akanbi_edu:

Beaf, remind me please. Iyana Ipaja is capital of which state?

Abagworo:

In the Southeast it is Awka.

How bad is Yaba ?

kasiem:

@abagworo,
i can understand that umuahia and abakaliki are now better than awka? Ooh, wonders shall never end ooo.

afam4eva:

he didn't say Iyana Ipaja is the capital of any state. he was just challenging the fact that i alluded to the fact that Ipaja is better than Lokoja.

incidentally, i was in ado ekiti yesterday. my first time. only ever been to 3 other state capitals, so no point saying it's the worst or not. but i genuinely felt sorry for the people. if the town had remained just that, a town, i guess it would plod along at its own pace, like several similar towns across the country. but as a state capital, it's unfit for purpose. the capital should've been located in a village/small town with adequate green/brownfield site for development. i was overwhelmed by the pitiable disarray of the place. also the 45km road to ado, from the akure-benin motorway, is the worst road i've travelled - though i admit i don't travel much. the fed needs to give a state like ekiti additionall help, starting with that inter state road. in the circumstances, i don't see any positive for an outside investor in ekiti at this point. a shame as the people are quite nice. **agree benin is not great**

asha 80:

umuahia is planned and awka is not.do not even go there

Beaf:

No need to correct that bigotted mumu called Akanbi_edu.
