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. |

Ado-ekiti will surelly take the lead. |

The one i have visited, LOKOJA is the worst. |

kasiem: Have you been there before? |
Re: The Worst State Capital You Have Visited by Beaf: 1:06pm On Nov 12, 2011 |
afam4eva: You gats to be kidding! No place on Earth is worse than Iyana Ipaja! It is the definition of the word, hellhole. |
Re: The Worst State Capital You Have Visited by Afam4eva(m): 1:07pm On Nov 12, 2011 |
Beaf: Maybe i exaggerated just a little bit but Lokoja is very bad. |
Re: The Worst State Capital You Have Visited by edogirl2: 1:09pm On Nov 12, 2011 |
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** 1 Like |

Beaf, remind me please. Iyana Ipaja is capital of which state? |
Re: The Worst State Capital You Have Visited by Afam4eva(m): 1:16pm On Nov 12, 2011 |
Akanbi_edu: 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. |
Re: The Worst State Capital You Have Visited by Abagworo(m): 1:21pm On Nov 12, 2011 |
In the Southeast it is Awka. |
Re: The Worst State Capital You Have Visited by Afam4eva(m): 1:24pm On Nov 12, 2011 |
Abagworo: I assume you have only been to the south-east. The thread implies Nigeria not just the SE. |

Re: The Worst State Capital You Have Visited by kasiem(m): 2:07pm On Nov 12, 2011 |
@abagworo, i can understand that umuahia and abakaliki are now better than awka? Ooh, wonders shall never end ooo. |

Lokoja is an enigmatic failure, an epitome of chronic benightedness |

edo.girl: PICTURES NEEDED . . . . We have advanced to a point where people ought to POST IMAGES to support their claims. You have a Cell Phone Camera, I am guessing, why not use it more often than not? |
