if dia is no nigeria,kano wont b wot it is now,d likes of ibb and abacha were spendin alot of oil money in kano.were is OBJ,GEJ or shonekan huse located in kaduna.i can bet my moni dat dis leaders u are talkin abt are northerners.no southern leader has a home in kaduna.

You mean Abacha and Ibb spending money to aid kano development? Perhaps you will be able to tell me what they did and how they sponsored and aid kano either with their money or govt money.

Obj as a military officer has a house in KD. Don't know about others.

Lovely pictures, Rawani.

Devoid of red mud, gully erosion and nuisance gala sellers.

We'll wel. Ibadan, lagos(presently), haven't been to any Igbo land. Would like to visit onitsha, Aba, Ph.
yea try and visit Enugu and you would never regret it * we are very acommodating *.. Enugu is the capital of igboland as well as kano capital of the North west. Try and eat our indigenious food (OKPA), because i also ate wai-na and Dan-ma- lai-lai in kano (sha you know them ) tongue

Onitsha is nice but don't go to Aba ooo if not you would be suprise.. All the infrastruture in Aba are warn-out and decaying and the govt do not even care with reason best known to them. But i knw Aba would come back stronger!

portharcourt (am presently in ph ) is in south-south and a nice city if i must say. They are predominantly Ikwerre who attually speak and understand igbo but clam not to be igbo because of their oil reserve. But tribe like calabari and Ogoni can not be ignored.

'everything in his ignorant post suggests he is a southerner'- so southerner automatically means igbo abi?....'then drop your obvious hatred for the north'-you must be having a laugh,did you see any comment of mine in this thread before i quoted you?so what is the obvious hatred?.....'and what other tribe could be more proactive and preoccupied to spite the north'- you are actually the one bigoted here.
I guess i'm a bit informed to exchange banter with you this evening. You subtly jump to the guy's defence with the pretense i mentioned igbo in my response. But i will leave you in yourself delusion to draw conclusion as it suits you.

I have been eating igbo food for long, I enjoy fufu, eba, ogbonlo soup and the rich vegetable soups and some kind of reddish, bitter salad, ise ewu must not be ignored grin. Sorry I didn't mention I was born in lagos. I am familiar with igbo food, but I believe the ones in igbo state will teste better. grin

This OP is a huge joke...i was born and bred in Kaduna and school at FUT Minna. guy i live all my life in the north and thank God i left there just some few years back. Dont decieve people with random pic of a minute beautiful places of the WHOLE north and posting trash. Imagine how it will look like if some one post pics of beautiful pics of the south...when i say south i hope you know all the southern states like LAGOS, RIVERS, DELTA, AKWA IBOM, ENUGU, just to mention a few and you are post Kaduna that i am right now. A place fulll of angwas and talakawas..keep deceiving those that have not been here before. Abeg south is far more better o

Now compare Jigawa State to Abia, Ebonyi or Anambra. Jigawa is twice better than those states combined despite getting smaller share of the national cake.
jigawa is only beta than those states in terms of federal government presence.in terms of economics and education its lagging behind them.its not for nothing that two among west africas biggest market are in those states.

Mr Poster what of Borno and Adamawa?

The problem with the north isn't in your original post. The simple reason people dread you and your people is the well recorded history of intolerance and hostility to others who neither share nor subscribe to your ideologies and faith.

For many years even before Maitasine and Boko Haram northern youths have been known for periodic riots that always seem to involve the burning of churches with the destruction of lives and properties of non northerners.

I lived in the north for years my self and you know it is true. For me and my family Abuja is the boundary. Anybody going beyond is parking his life at owners risk!
Sir,if you really stayed in the North as you claim,then you should be aware that the majority of the young men who burn down churches and are hostile to those of different faiths, are manipulated by imams who are in the paybooks of many politicians over here.I've lived here all my life and have travelled extensively all over Nigeria and the hostility I've received from people in the south-east,south-south and south-west,many ordinary/average Northerners won't be able to do it to thesame people from those regions here because it would be deemed as being too uncultured.The average Northerner is peaceful and welcoming.Na the politicians dey cause all the kasala for here
