nigeria is too backward.

Port harcourt

Mokola as for now, today picture

No underground train,no trams, no normal train network..., dem just dey build roundabout everywhere a country well blessed by God... Nonsense!!!

Egba girl:

you want us to fight abi?! Lol. We both know that's not true.

It is very true m'lady

The pictures taken are not true representation of the respective state capitals. While I would not hold brief for every state, I do not think that the picture of Abeokuta and Oshogbo are true representation of development. For instance, I was in Oshogbo over the last weekend and I was amazed by the massive road constructions (completed and on-going)within the city.

I also do not think that the red-roof picture of Ibadan is the whole thing about the city. I would rather the OP post the pictures of work done by the government than showing the dilapidated structures met on ground.

Abagworo: Nigerian cities disgust me. Aba and Onitsha actually have some of the best skylines apart from Lagos. However the buildings are not high enough. Mostly 3 to 7 storey block of flats.

is this guy typing from that osisioma village in aba. Are you f**king kidding me with this your dry comedy

ShymX: Northern Nigeria looks alright and probably cleaner than the rest of the country.

Maduigiri or whatever the BH head-office is, is called, shocked the hell out of me. Thought the mofos down there still probably live in the stone-age. And behold, it looks arguably better than most of the Southern cities. With nice roads and street light.

Respect to Northerners!

Bush man! I see u r praising Maidugri so much because u have not visited the people paradise and the land of promise b4....I sharp dude will understand what I mean.

Fake pix! Come and see the People paradise and Land of Promise and u will know that those pix are fake...Lol.. Damutru the Yobe state capital is a village...The most ugly state capital in Nigeria.

Ikot Ekpene and Eket is also a commercial city...

Oyo state residents and indigenes need to seriously pray and cry to God. It seems they are exempted from enjoying the dividends of good governance and democracy. I was in shock the day I went to Ibadan. the place is not developed at all.

Syenite: Akure, Asaba, Awka, Bauchi

AKURE picture is the roundabout built and donated several years ago by first bank and shortly before election in Ondo state last year Gov. Mimiko added water fountain into it and beautified, and n for sure he showed it to everyone who care that is an achievement, even during the debate he said the water fountain and its twin brother located just a few meters from the water fountain has created jobs for people earning them about Ten Thousand Naira daily, for people see it as a tourist centre and they go there to snap pictures. What a major achievement for a Governor of an oil producing state!

Abagworo: Nigerian cities disgust me. Aba and Onitsha actually have some of the best skylines apart from Lagos. However the buildings are not high enough. Mostly 3 to 7 storey block of flats.

chai,so nigeria term of a developed state is when it has tall buildings that reaches the sky?So skyscrapers is now equals to development or what.When wil 9ja pple accept d fact dat a properly and beautiful planned city is worth more than building skyscrapers everywhr without direction.?

who is this one?

Orlando Owoh:
Nothing has changed. I got to know how this place has been ravaged by guinea worm through my father who had to leave.

## try n b arguing base on hw much u knw a certain place,lyk l said l wz in ado btwn feb n june l can tel u pples r suffering dere,u hardly c house witout a toilet in abakaliki wia mi aunty presently live

I respect Ilorin for its roads. Damn!

ShymX:

Never that, I was just messing about on the thread. You should know I like messing with Ibadan people whenever there's an opportunity to do that.

Anyway, the story is true.

No beef, all I want is a kiss.

What kiss? Kiss ko kiss ni. My fren!

Oya take like that LOL!

But we shall talk about this matter elsewhere. I refuse to agree. That's not the version I know lol

make dey stop dat whinning abeg wch levels nah, na only top view we dey see oooh, make dem enter streets sef..........





NONSENSE....

Spiff20: tanx ibiso i lik dis pix

you're welcome miss spiff..

Abagworo: Port harcourt

thank u my brother

Naija

N_girl: Based on my own experience, Yoruba states are the worst states in Nigeria. Ibadan is one of the dirtiest and noisiest places in Nigeria. You guys might not agree with me but it's what I've seen.
Some people talk as if all SW states are like Lagos but most are nothing like it.
Eastern states don't look good either. Even some of the cities some times look like villages.
Northern states are not as bad as people think but they're still horrible.
In as much as you guys keep "praising" some Governors, most of them are them are doing absolutely nothing.
The best states in terms of development are still Cross Rivers, Rivers and Lagos.

NB: These pictures are old. You can't use some of them to compare what these cities look like now

You're talking nonsense woman, Ibadan is as of today one of the cleanest in Nigeria, if not the cleanest. Ask somebody.

Na lie u dey lie bros..Schooled there for some years and toured that state wella and am not talking about 2007 oo, its recent.

Arcard: op d onitsha u knw must b heaven, for me onitsha wowo

Onitsha south worwor.. but onitsha north is cool except all those market areas.. gra, 33, housing, omagba, nkpor... and their plenty 4 story buildings

am yet to underdtand the meaning of this thread

By recent you mean you've not been to Ibadan since 2007 I believe. If you can't tell us right here and now where in Ibadan the dirt is, you best STFU.

Here is Ibadan: https://www.nairaland.com/1345282/ibadans-new-look-roads-infrastructures

St_Ichimaro.Gin:


jeez, I ll keep silent in calling u names, 'cos ur post itself IS ENOUGH TO DO SO.

..tell me something, (even if u were to grade development on road only), why isn't Borno a commercial capital (even only in north)?

...heck, im done wif U here.

Borno has no seaport nor was it a formal capital. infact it is a land locked state at the hell end of the country and was kinda neglected in the scope of things considering Kano and kaduna and the colonial presence and influence... u can't compare maiduguri to Lagos.. but it is a cool city

Abagworo: Nigerian cities disgust me. Aba and Onitsha actually have some of the best skylines apart from Lagos. However the buildings are not high enough. Mostly 3 to 7 storey block of flats.

bros you are so correct.. the problem is just the poor state of roads... especially in the market areas.. main market starting from new market road.., head bridge, ariaria.. but business is always what bring most outsiders to Onitsha and aba so they end up seeing just the market areas. a drive to gra or 33 will paint a different picture. in the case of aba, ogbo hills

Idongesit619: Ikot Ekpene and Eket is also a commercial city...

eket.. can never forget the seven months I spent there in 2011.. nice small city.. fine sweet girls.. rich oil workers.. more like an Exxon mobil residence city.. the clubs.. sodoni, tempest, the hotels on Marina... missing the city, ubong and his delicious dog meat

You just showed Yenagoa Government House.

Emmadani: chai,so nigeria term of a developed state is when it has tall buildings that reaches the sky?So skyscrapers is now equals to development or what.When wil 9ja pple accept d fact dat a properly and beautiful planned city is worth more than building skyscrapers everywhr without direction.?

Look at Chicago and tell me if you prefer Owerri, Enugu or Calabar.

chikejude: You just show Yenagoa Government House.so who paid u. U for show the shame called a city.

akal-w- akj?
