eaglechild:
Not true
The OP says developed states not state capitals.
Outside, Enugu city, Enugu is basically rural wasteland apart from parts of Nsukka and Agbani unlike Anambra that is most urban/ semiurban and developed.
Anambra has the best intra state roads in the east.
Yes some parts of Onitsha may be subpar but u can drive to most towns in Anambra without stress.
Same cannot be said for Enugu.
Enugu city is ok but u need to get around more to see what i'm saying.
who is comparing Enugu n Anambra in terms of development? On what basis is it Good roads, Education, communication facilities, organised housing, light, Sanitation, entertainment. Enugu city n these other parts may be d urban areas in Enugu but all d other l/g Awgwu, udi, nkanu etc have good roads n lights more than awka, onitsha and all d big cities in anambra, it might b a rural area bt it is developed. What Enugu lacks is water and Water in Anambra is nt even provided by d govt.

most nigerians dont really know onitsha. there are places you will see in osha that will make you think you are in ikoyi. people take the disorderliness of upper iweka as hw the whole town is. but i know wen obi is done with the beautification of upper iweka and expressbut will definitely change peoples' petception.

Forget about Nairaland stuffs, I know Onitsha well. My friends stay at the GRA which is cool but majority of Onitsha is like majority of Nigeria which is nothing to write home about.

Industries:

Lagos, Abia, Ogun, Anambra

Urbanization:

Lagos, Anambra, Kano, Rivers

Commerce;

Lagos, Anambra, Abia, Kano

Other cities larger or equal to State capital;

Lagos, Osun, Anambra, Delta, Abia

GDP;

Lagos, Rivers, Abia, Delta, Oyo

Serenity;

Crossriver, Imo, Enugu, Akwa-Ibom

Literacy and education;

Imo, Delta, Anambra, Edo

I think Anambra should be. 2nd to Lagos followed by Abia and Rivers.

bloggernaija: This list is a joke. These guys are putting one city state as the most developed. Apart from the state capitals, the rest of those states are creaking villages with absolutely no social amenities .even some of the capitals are glorified villages.
My list is
Lagos
Ibadan
Rivers
Kano
Abuja
And the rest.

Like someone said above, nairaland dont usually include the north when discussing stuff like this. Truth be told, Kaduna is far better than almost all southern states apart from 2 or 3 in all facets. Talk about agriculture, education institutions, commerce and industry, social ammenities like power road nd water. Not to talk of nigeria's defence in which kaduna houses everything partaining that

Re: 10 Most Developed States In Nigeria: What Do You Think? by emmatok(m): 12:50pm On Apr 21, 2013
Development has nothing to do with oil deposits, or manufacturing plants.
e.g. Texas vs New-York.
NY is more developed than Texas.
But Texas got more investment in manufacturing and oil.

The major qualities of a developed state is Trade, financial markets and property markets

This is why Lagos,Anambra and Abuja are theost developed states in Nigeria.

A developed city is a highly urbanized city.

Why can't you believe? Forget about my issue with Chino. We disagreed because I wrote 3 years ago that Soludo was an opportunity lost by Anambra while Chino was in support of Obi. Chino is not a responsible man. Rather than counter my points, he resorted to making it seem like Imo vs Anambra just like his master Obi did when El-Rufai criticized his budget.

. Are you sure you're a nigerian or you just woke up and decided to post this shit for comments... Have you been to Anambra and delta before? You don't conclude by passing through the state via federal road... Of cos every federal road is cool... Anambra and delta has the worst road networks in nigeria in terms of the states I've been to... I just finished my service this feb, and I served in delta, asaba precisely.. I was really disappointed.. Still don't know why EFCC haven't apprehended their Gov Dr Oduaghan.. You didn't even mention imo state,cross river, kaduna... #fuckit...

Vision2017: Delta shouldn't make the list. Truth be told, there are only 2 major cities in Delta and these are Asaba the state capital and Warri. Other glorified towns cum cities are only but a mere shadow of what a city should be. Delta is mostly beclouded by thick bushes and forest virtually everywhere. Nothing is happening in Delta and I can't help but wonder why Delta made your list of the most developed state in Nigeria. Delta remains a dungeon where wild animals thrives
Ur statement is a sentimental statement. Delta State is developed. Becos dere are good roads nd oda infrastructures compared to Anambra State.

Omo_Tier1: Whoever compiled this list is a village champion!how can you say Akwa-Ibom is more developed than Edo? To even see Delta state on that list means the op really does not understand what development really is!

For all I care, the only state nearing anything called development in Nigeria is Lagos. Abuja comes closest but still years always from being a developed state. All others are glorified towns still developing.
omo av u even visited akwa ibom b4 to knw watsup?D last time mikel obi visited akwa ibom he said what he saw in akwa ibom is comparable to what e sees in europe.Infact thr is allround development in akwa ibom,good road network in all d local govt,health facilities even in rural areas i wil even say some rural areas av stable electricity supply dan d capital city it self.I wil say dat d only tin dat needs to be done in akwa ibom to make it well developed is provision of industries.Akwa ibom is d first state to bluid an international airport on its own,no funds or assist watsoeva 4rm d federal govt,its also creating its own international sea port.Afta al d roads n oda project av bin completed,it wil concentrate on building industries.Let me just say akwa ibom as a more brighter future dan any oda state in 9ja.Just an opinion.

You lie! The road networks in Anambra isn't perfect, but it is not among the worst in Nigeria. By the way, apart from Enugu-Onitsha expressway from Building material market to Awka, name any other road in Anambra that is in a bad shape?

@OP it is obvious you have tried to do justice to a post way out of your league. The ideal thing to have done is to put in a bit of work and research into arriving at your list - that way even though it might not be scholarly, the criteria by which you arrived at your list would be clear to all. I would say you should give this another shot.
