The Ancient Cars Of The Ancient City Of Ibadan. by benzmatic: 10:21pm On Jun 07, 2015 |
I was just wondering how in my travel across cities, rustic or urban, in our great country, I never came across deadbeat cars like I saw in Ibadan the Oyo state capital. though without doubt a cosmopolitan city with an abundance of structural historical relics, the state of some contraptions of rust and steel plying the roads of the city is nothing short of bewildering amusement. I mean cars of the same age that would be regular daily drivers in other cities would be totally ragged out on the roads of Ibadan. is it the state government, the quantity of vehicles on the road, the people's vehicle and road use manners, or the vehicles themselves, or are the vehicles just resonating with the rustic quality of the city as a whole? I really can't tell. to look at the commercial buses is another story to tell. Ibadan, running splash of rust and gold — flung and scattered among the seven hills like broken china in the sun.

The orange car is a Russian made car called Lada. It was popular in Nigeria in the early 80s. 1 Like |

Whooa! Is that, that 'thing' up there actually moving? It might be quite fatal for the driver if the car collides with a fat guy. |

take time to read patiently. I made the first post. Clearly from the white commercial cabs and buses, you can tell it is Ibadan, or Oyo state at least. The poster of the other pictures is not the op. He posted pictures from Edo state. The orange Lada in the picture is not rickety. It's only an ancient car, the owner can actually be commended for keeping a relic on the road. kapish? |

benzmatic: Both Edo cars posted look properly maintained. I wonder why the other poster decided to use Edo pictures on an Ibadan thread. Time travel? |

Re: The Ancient Cars Of The Ancient City Of Ibadan. by Denn(m): 5:15am On Jun 18, 2015 |
colossus2: Keyword here is IBADAN.... pictures should be of ancient cars IN IBADAN. do you now comprehend? In fact, you should apologise for trying to pass on some pictures taken in edo state as if they were from Ibadan. |
