He is still using the old region template. Igbo's don't really buy into this 6 geographical zones.

south eastern was for a political purpose... can you pls show me where South is located in Nigeria map?

Afam4eva:

I never said there's no work in Aba. I said I have not seen any. Maybe I haven't moved around well enough. It's also faulty to say Aba is now a construction site as if there's construction in every nook and cranny.

Afam 30% of the problem in Aba cannot be solved in 8 years. There might be pockets of construction works here and there but it cannot be noticed because the level of decay is much and tends to swallow the little efforts of Ikpeazu. Abians need to work together to help Aba but there is an unhealthy ethnic divide there.

Afam, you opened this thread and poured your bitter heart on Aba to expose it to another round of bashing and mockery, though it might be true but let give peace a chance for once. I hope you will be able to hold your own when the e-war eventually breaks out. I wonder why we are like this, people coming online to beat their drums while others are developing so fast in education, industrialization, state-wide infrastructure, agriculture, aviation, refinery etc. We are watching..

@ Abagworo, I have warned you severally, stop mentioning any part of Anambra on your tirade focus on your useless state for once.

Akwa Ibom and Cross River States are the real Southeast and were once known as Southeastern State from 1967 to 1976. Igbos live in South Central Nigeria.

Afam4eva:

I don't know these places that you're calling. All I know is that I stay at Ogborhill and have been. In Faulks road since morning. I even went to a place called powerline down the road where I saw an inner street being repaired. I even took a picture. Apart from that I've not seen anything.

Ukaegbu road is the third junction you will see at ogborhill after umuoba road,and ebenma street. Umuola is the fifth junction after ovum street and azuka street or after NTA Aba. Powerline in ogborhil is Enwereji street by emelogu through Azuka extension. Another powerline is at umuobe ovum through starline or giant step school ehere. Just tell me where you are,the street in question is all I need from you. Even Akpu road connecting ehi road and clifford road is under construction. I am only talking of orgborhill.

Please stop misinforming the public! Igbos don't don't live only in the South central of the Nigeria map. Igboland encompasses the southern tip, the central and the east of the south.

Aba, Obigbo and environs are squarely in the southern tip of the Nigeria map. Owerri and environs in the south central, so is Onitsha and Asaba. Abakaliki, Afikpo and environs are squarely in the South East of the Nigerian map.

Thank you for putting that APC nigga right where he belongs.
But you also forgot to mention the igbos in the middlebelt/ cross river /A'ibom

kel4soft:

Then, if that be the case, Asaba should not be included in the list because it was formerly in the Western Region and later Mid-west Region. There was no time Asaba was part of Eastern Region.

However, I understand what he meant by Eastern Region.

menabadoo:
The major roads you will see in Asaba are nnebisi, okpanam and summit road, these roads look very dusty, asaba lacks greens, Asaba lacks inner-roads. Owerri has more plyable roads than Asaba, owerri is generally more beautiful than Asaba, owerri has more dualized roads than Asaba, owerri is neater than Asaba and I think owerri is bigger than Asaba. Owerri is generally more of a city than Asaba.

useless abagworo will love ur comment

forgiveness:

Please go back again and study historical map of Nigerian regions, from southern protectorates to western, northern and eastern regions then to the creation of Midwestern regions...if not clear enough blow up the map a bit...its part of the political history of the country... But does not account for the geo-ethinological view of the country....two different things..

Then again it is not the topic here...leave the topic be.abeg

Scholes007:
why not talk about your own place and leave asaba alone.

Lol! Na fight? I'm a delta person na

This is a very wrong statement bro, I'm from Abirba but I and most Abians always pray for Aba to develop because Aba is home for all of us, that was the reason why we Abians hated TA Orji so much because he did noting in Aba. During TA Orji tenure, I use to tell people that we should give an Ngwa man power because they are original owner of Aba and as the owner he will try to deleop Aba for our own good because Aba is very important to us.

EasternLion:
People should never forget the fact Aba is not a state capital, all other places u compare it with are state capitals.

And also the worst roads in Aba itself are Federal roads, speaks volume.

Onitsha is not a state capital

Illiteracy is not good. Geographically Igbos live in South Central Nigeria and nowhere else. Southern tip is Ijoid Rivers, Delta and Bayelsa.

Please what exactly is south central when it comes to geography

vladimiros:
UYo is in the south south tho, its the Capital of Akwa Ibom

I am from akwa ibom, Uyo is not as great as Enugu yet, but the Infrastructure is on the ground, it will grow

Take your idiotic south-south of this discussion.

To the pseudo geopgraphers this is not the place to learn geography or misinform people ....just let the topic be...

The topic is not about geography

Blind as a fool. Everything is not about idiotic and deceitful geopolitical crap only found in the zoo called Nigeria. It is true that zoo has flowing followers.

DerideGull:


Take your idiotic south-south of this discussion.

you guys mentioned UYo..

I will talk about Uyo..and it in the south south

These maps show difference between Igboland, Eastern Nigeria and Southern Nigeria. Igboland starts from a part of the Western part of the South at Igbanke and terminates at a part of the Eastern part of the South at Arochukwu. It equally terminates Northern at Obollo Afor and Southern at Port Harcourt.

Get yourself educated my friend!
There are some Igbo communities in Benue State and Kogi. When you plan to visit Gboko or Makurdi, follow 9th mile-Nsukka-Otukpa-Otukpo road. Stop spreading ignorance.
Even the southern tip of Igboland is debatable, if you take into cognisance of the fact that Opobo speaks Igbo. I don't know why you mischievously called them Ijoid. What exactly is your intention with your pseudo classification? Can you call an English, germanoid or latinoid?

Favolly:

Lol! Na fight? I'm a delta person na

not a fight dear but you are from delta does not mean asaba is not an eastern city unless you take south east as the only east

Abagworo:

Towing the line of Gowon's geographical delineation of Igboland has rightly put you below an illiterate. The 'Ibo of the lower Niger' are found equally in the southern location of the Nigeria map. Not only in the central. You could be very stupid at times.

So the Umuezeokoha, the okpokus, the obis and ado in Benue state are no longer Igbos because of some imaginary psuedo- geography albiet ethno-geography being peddled by some people here on the forum.

Please leave geography out of this.. We are discussing cities not ethno-geography.

I took all those controversial areas into consideration. Illiteracy is a bad disease that needs serious curbing among some of you. Igbos are not East as wrongfully asserted nor are they at the Southern tip nor in the West. Igboland is completely at the centre of Southern Nigeria.

Afam4Eva, you did the reasonable thing to leave out PH..u were careful not to upset me...i need to point out a lil about Aba.

Aba is an eyesore..dirty, smelly, godforsaken...They say a child is amongst others, influenced by his environment..that urban filth called Aba breeds children, who later grow into adults with skewed reasoning ability, miserable outlook to life and utter disregard for social values..there is practically nothing positive a child can gain from Aba as his environment.

Being born and bred in Aba where there is zero regard for sanity is the reason those riffraffs crossed the Imo river into PH to protest Nnamdi Kanus arrest like Nnamdi Kanu was held in PH..those unambidextrous idiiots from Aba are a reflection of the failed Igbo value system ..a system that is careless, carefree, where anything goes.

Aba and its inhabitants should be bombed to the ground as a lesson to filthyness of an environment that infects the psyche and the mind.

Ikengawo:
All federal roads from ph to the rest of igbo land are deliberately kept in an abysmal state to disconnect igbos in ph from the rest. Aba and PH suffer the most from this

Which Igbos in PH are they disconnecting from the rest??..what are you implying..if you dnt have any meaning contribution you better keep calm and read comments.

PH is Ikwerre and Ikwerre aint Ibo.Ikwerre is Ikwerre...Iboland stops in Imo, and Abia..you can sit behind your PC and type your fantasies but you can test your claims by walking into a meeting in any Obiri/Oviri allover Ikwerreland and greet them by saying "Ibo Kwenu".....come back and share testimony.
