My Hausa Brothers LOVE their HONDA's beside, NICE pictures but it seems to be a developing area of Gombe though..

@op
Where specialist hospital and what's the name of the second 1? I have forgotten.


Be careful, you know security issues they have with this part of the country, if they see someone snapping anyhow, they might get spoked and cause you trouble.

Gombe o ni baje...impressive though! At least, one Northern state dey rep.

May I suggest to the MODS (OAM4J and AFAM) to create monthly state platforms, where a minimum of three states, will be analysed and discussed per month. A particular state, say Benue, can be discussed and dissected this week, and then perhaps, Niger next week and so on. Nairalanders would be made to judge the STATE of THE MONTH based on the progresses made on the level of development and modernization attained by the state governments. I suggest this can be attained by asking for volunteers from each state of the federation, to present pictures and if possible, data from the state budget e.t.c.

Thanks

The streets look frighteningly deserted. Could it be attributed to BH?

Thunder fire BH o, I wouldn't mind living in Gombe if not for them

lacasa: Nice one.

Even wt insecurity n other vices, the North still remains the Prefered choice/destination for non-indegenes in Nigeria.

Whyy?

Because Arewa is still the simplest & most accomodating region to live, in Nigeria

Dankwambo carry on!

Sai Arewa!!

Lol.

Syenite: The streets look frighteningly deserted. Could it be attributed to BH?

Well i may be wrong though but i think from what i saw, most of the pictures above are from one particular estate cos 90% of the pictures are not even of the main road, more like street views which you can easily see anywhere in the country. Then again, i could be wrong.

Then one wonders where those census figures are always emanating from.

Not bad for a northern state with low revenue

To be frank Gombe and Jigawa are the best in the north if not in Nigeria taking cognisance of the little allocation they get compared to others

The places he took are mostly resiential areas..

Good work so far. However, most of the roads lack an edge barrier. This means drivers are not protected from the gutters especially at intersections.
Nigerian projects hardly show complete regard for safety.

The North is just a very beautiful region.

This dankwambo is really trying do you know that he had constructed 52 road in gombe metropolis in less than 2 years. N has rehablited almost all d primary schools.

The state fine, fine pass abuja self....lol @ op, what's your aim? Are you the brother to the Govenor?

I was posted to Gombe for Youth corp service in 1997,in a remote area,what amaze me most in Gombe State then was the Quality of the Road construction ,absolutely brilliant,well I realise PTF funded d project!i can't thing of any road in Lagos that can match the standard of quality of road networking,despite the fact that the whole state is sparsely populated,a local govt might comprises of 10 houses,vehicles takes about 1:30hr to pass by,misplaced priorities on the hand of Fedral govt.

:DTaaaaa! See washing. Na dia Govt house area wen u see so and dia one major road and one estate behind d deputy Governors lodge. Dead town! Had to travel everynyt to tunfere resort outside town to fit sitdown drink beer. U knw how it feels wen every time u want to drink u must pass their Good bye from gombe sign post? 99% of bike men dia dnt hear english sef. No worry forget d road gombe is d most backward place I've been to in 9ja

you all must know that it is much easier to construct roads in the north due to their relatively flat and dry terrain unlike south which is rugged and wet

See u, u see people for street or car for the road? na una sabi o! me i no dey for bokoharam wahala o. nice effort though.

lacasa: Nice one.

Sai Arewa!!

Looks much better than lagos if you ask me!!! especially the roads. I mean the worst road according to the

posted pictures would be a standard road in lagos

+1000 likes, spot on

I served in Gombe in 2011/2012. First, when I was posted there,I needed the help of map to know the state was in the north eastern part of Nigeria

I had a great service year,the town is beautiful, the people are nice and the tangale girls are sweet . It called the 'jewel in the savannah' but i call it my 2nd home town. I love visiting the town and I still do.

Gov. Danjuma goje transformed the state,and Gov. Dankwabo (tolban) is trying to build on his legacies. This is one state i know PDP is working. I'm looking forward to my next visit there.

Gombe state is a kool place to be; apart from those kalari boys misbehaving

TA. Orji and Martin Elechi nd some oda gov shuld go and learn frm dis governor

Arsenate: The North is just a very beautiful region.

yeah! beautiful until the advent of Boko Haram

All this southerners that are saying northern governors are just looting hope now u will change ur mind(remember gombe is in the league of ebonyi n ekiti in years of creatiön ) . First it is sokoto now gombe still counting.....

Nice effort by op usm tho I saw a lot of repeated pictures. The North has the best road network in Nigeria. Don't mind living there if not for the arid weather and unrest.

I was in Gombe during Goje's regime. Long before BH
Empty town! Very very empty! Travelling from Borno to Gombe raises serious questions on the real population of the North. The state capitals look empty and the countryside is deserted. I don't know where they get the high populations they post as census figures. The only densely populated town in the North is Kano.

These pix are nice but I doubt if they are representative. This must just be the capital

I dey pack cum Gombe bye 2 lag

By the time Nigeria do census then the population of Gombe will be 5 million instead of 50,000. even cows no dey to make the place a little bit populated.
