You continue to exhibit foolishness day by day, and the only way to curtail this madness is simply to educate you. Go and grab a textbook definition, then come back for more because you lack the depth and common sense to argue. If you're taught in school at all, you would learn in the tier of structure, there are three tiers or rather, types of government: Federal, State and Local. To imagine your foolishness continues this far beats me. Furthermore, let me idulge this foolisheness

Definition of a "city"

an inhabited place of greater size, population, or importance than a town or village

Some define a city as a collection of several towns to make up a city. Now ask yourself, what makes NY or Houston a city? Both places have horrible living areas, but they are highly distinguished because of size, population, structure and what not. Now what are the characteristics of a city? I mean just like any other entity? Some regard cities as having it's own type of government which in the case of Nigeria, that wiould be called what? In your infinite wisdom, a population of more than 2 million residents is still a village? Your redemption is far off, until you find the definition of city and town, then only will I engage any further your mounting stupidity.
pride will not allow this man learn.

Owk, let's assume nnewi is a city, how many dualized roads and round abouts are in nnewi city? cheesy

The kind of wide dual carriage road been constructed in nsukka from opi junction to GRA roindabout may never get to nnewi and awka in decades. Good road with wide pedestrian walkway, road marks and drainage.

How many roads are in nnewi?

chai, awka is finished town, just one dualized road.

Meaning umuahia has more dualized roads than anambra as a whole.

Aba alone has more dual carriage roads than all the Anambra cities joined together.

Lmao... Don't hate the player bro, hate the game.

Nigeria is dead as a country when it comes to a "livable" country in terms of infrastructures such as good road, electricity, etc does it deny Nigeria's status as a sovereign nation? Nope, it does not. What's my point? As much as "infrastructures" play an economic role in whatever entity it is: a nation, a state, a city, a town, a village or what have you, infrastructures itself is NOT a determinant of the entity. That's the whole point of structure/planning. Next.... cool cool cool cool


Whether you like it or hate it, Nnewi with a population of at least 2 million people cannot be termed as a town let alone a village. If you have anything to support this, bring it... Till then, you're blowing hot air.

To imagine this stupidity has gone on for too long is really disturbing on your part. You did not say Nnewi North (as in aka ano Nnewi) as a village, it's the whole of Nnewi that's a village... Ahu adiro gi, like seriously. Bitterness is not good for you, Nnewi still remains the second largest city in Anambra comprising of "FOUR" local LGA's.. So dude, get your definition right.

Nnewi is a village or semi urban like all of Northern and central Igbo from Mbaitoli to Awka which comprise central Igbo. Awka itself is an urban city area unlike Nnewi.

Your definitions of the keywords city, village, town, mega cities is dangerously skewed. Master the definition before engaging into conversation beyond your scope of understanding.

Orlu, as the second largest city after Owerri does not have the population size/structure of a city. Please get it right.
Nsukka on the other hand, and again, does not qualify as a city let alone a mega city in terms of population size/srutcture to be termed "city"

Get your definitions right.

Nnewi is made up of FOUR Local Government Areas and also, these LGA's are part of the 774 LGA's recognized by the Nigerian Constitution. Each LGA is made up of different towns and some towns, different villages. In Nnewi North, remember I said "NORTH ", it is made up of several towns and the most common are referred to as Otolo, Umudim, Uruagu, Nnewichi (ofter referred to as "aka ano Nnewi) which has it's own Igwe. Each town has their own village, so the next time you bulk up towns and village without understanding city structural planning, I will ask that you keep it to yourself. The Nigerian census data may offer some guide/help as to how "NNEWI" in broad is big in population... Next time, get it right.

Orlu has 12 LGAs and is almost same size with Anambra State. Oguta is 5 times bigger than Nnewi.

It's a lie, Orlu is far better than Nnewi in terms of size/structure but population I'm not sure. Orlu city is made up of 5lgas; Orlu, Njaba, Nkwerre, Orsu and Ideato south.
The time you guys are wasting here, you better chat the way forward for Abia state, stop wasting your time comparing Anambra with Abia, try and get things to start working in Abia, ever since your governor won his case against Otti, initial gragra don stop, guys Anambra her people are not the cause of Abia predicaments, TA Orji and family are holding Abians captive, channel your grivences to your government, massive media campaign will make him seat-up, Anambra has been working for thirteen years now, Abia stop working since the days of Ikewachukwu, your attack on Anambra can't liberate Abia.

[b]The former Group Managing Director of Diamond Bank Plc, Dr Alex Otti, has called on governors of the South East states to refrain from using contractors in their revenue drive.

Speaking on Wednesday at the ongoing Enugu State Investment Summit, Otti said that the time was rife for the chief executives of the states to harmonise their tax regimes to attract investors.
The former governorship candidate in Abia who spoke on South East Economic Integration with the theme: “Finance Opportunities for Regional Integration,” said that businesses in the area had suffered setbacks.
“Most states contract out their revenue drive thereby using tax to torment people. In most cases, investors are scared.
“They may think that they are generating revenue for their states without knowing that they are scaring investors away,” he said.
Otti said that the state governments needed to create the enabling environment for businesses to thrive.
He said that the time had come for the state governors to work together to develop the region as an economic hub.
“The situation in the South East needs thinking outside the box if only our governors will realise this.
“Our leaders should get out of the negative mindset, share services together and pay more attention to agriculture,”
He said that Enugu and Anambra states had shown commitments in transforming their states through quality leadership.
“I am not too sure all the states in the zone boast of the type of leadership Enugu has had.
“The truth is that it is because of my realistic stand that I had to give up the job that I was doing to see how I could contribute my own quota to salvage my state.
“This is not a political forum, but if you visit my state you will not be happy if you relate it to what is happening in Anambra and Enugu states,” he said.
Otti said that what the zone needed was pragmatic leadership that should think on how to leverage on the resources in their area for the benefit of the people.
“It is ridiculous that the South East which sits on gas deposits does not benefit from gas gathering facilities.
“We should think of a way to do businesses together and not fighting ourselves,”https://ekosocialapp./2016/04/14/otto-advises-admonish-using-contractors-to-syphone-cash/[/b]

I have no beef with my brothers from other SE states, I took a good break from NL and have no intention on coming back to this rubbish continuously being spewed on here. Gone are my days of ethnic diatribe on NL; however, sometimes you have to set some people straight because this isn't about the Yorubas. After all, abagworo that has been itching for a reply (a non SE person), did you see me respond to him?

We can insult each other and that's fine, after all siblings fight, argue but at the end of the day, they're sibling but deliberately perpetuating lies and distorting facts is something that won't be tolerated. This argument started if Nnewi is a city or not, and NOT if Nnewi is developed or not, but obviously, our resident dolt couldn't backup his facts based on Nigeria's standard, better yet, world standard. As for me, its #CaseClosed.
