city of brown roofs,lol,,ibadan

Billiondoe:


Yes that picture was taken from Top of Mapo hills which covers Aremo-Idi Ose, Ogunpa, Beere, Molete, Ooja-Oba (Kings Market) and Yemetu. It is a known fact that the colonial masters stayed in these parts of Ibadan and made Mapo Hall their headquarters. The King's Palace (Aafin Olubadan) is located beside the King's Market. That is early Ibadan which is closer to Ibadan Toll Gate of Lagos/Ibadan expressway which is what people see when they pass through. That is not up to a quarter of Ibadan. Youths need to learn and get some sense. There is University of Ibadan which is the first. What does that mean? It simply means Education and civilization have been around for a long time in Ibadan, there is FRIN,IITA,CRIN etc. Nigeria major Book publishers are based in Ibadan. Ibadan was the Capital of the Western Region during Awolowo's regime. All these millennium kids need to learn from history so they don't get misinformed. Like if you think I'm right. Share for others to learn.

Thou you said your opinion, but it's good for your opinion to always have back up. You have to ask yourself which of these state have I travel to, or provide pics. Places like Owerri, ancient City of Ibadan, and KD on list can never be ahead of Delta and Anambra. Even Ogun is expected to be ahead of them. They are just being over hype on the media.

Adaure4ever:
1) Ibadan ahead of Onitsha, Uyo, Awka and Owerri? Are you joking or what?
2) Kaduna ahead of Kano? Wtf
how did you rate this crap?
In my own rating.
1. Lagos
2. Abuja
3. Port Harcourt
4. Enugu
5. Calabar

FlyoruB:


Lol. You never see nada. This Enugu slum here takes the cake.

Are you okay? Is everything ok with you? you are comparing Enugu to Ibadam? Honestly no city is comparable to Enugu in Nigeria aside from Abuja.

Ilovemystate:

I hope you've seen this field survey of Slum Prevalence in Nigeria

Adaure4ever:
there is nothing in ibadan, I have been to ibadan before so you will not tell me about the city.
It is an unorganised city with many ancient houses that looks like it wanna collapse, rusted zincs, dusty roads, and there are many slums in it.
Akure is even managable than ibadan.
Ibadan is popular mainly because it was the capital of the western region.

Olodo
You think ibadan is a small place like your state (anambra entirely)?
FYI, ibadan is the largest city in West Africa. How many places did you visit in ibadan?

Ilovemystate:

My friend this is field survey

IBADAN?

Ibadan is largely unsafe. I'm tired. You're not safe at home, at work , on the streets, everywhere. People who have met me know I don't have a lifestyle that exposes me to things like this.

A very good business mentor and owner of GTIN motors (MR Chris) in ibadan was shot dead and his car stolen around Oluyole area of Ibadan on Monday while returning from work. This man fully relocated from Germany 2 years ago to start GTIN motors in Nigeria and now he's dead.

A very rich man, deals in Luxury cars. He should have just stayed back there. If you are abroad and govt is telling you to come back and establish a business here, tell them to provide security first 


Do you mean the same Iyangaku GRA where most political assassination in Ibadan happened is one of the most secure areas? It can't be. I schooled in the GRA and I cannot count the number of assassinations and failed attempts that were carried out during that time. 

Of recent, Bola Amole, the owner of BIMS African Food Store UK was killed there. 

________
Alalubosa GRA

Don't remind me! I lost a cousin who's a week older than me to those boys who were trying to rob him at gun point inside the estate about 12 years ago. 
I also lost a friend there too by Alalubosa river which is the escape route. 

Same thing with NIHORT, Jericho, Onireke GRA, Aleshinloye, Forestry. Those areas are just too silent which makes it easy for those boys to operate. 
_______
Bodija Estate

I can only ask which Bodija is it. Is it Bola Iges? Or Sunday Alalades? Or where Akala's driver was shot dead? Or the regular Kara Mayhem? Or where Mrs Adesiyan (Wife of the Police Affairs Minister) was abducted? Or where a family of 3 who just relocated to Nigeria after 18 years sojourn in Canada were burnt to death few weeks after arriving motherland?

Apologies.. but AriseKola was a big time tout who profited from the Abacha regime if you know the history of how he became rich. Asides him having Major guns, major Jazz and Major money to hire major touts, he is alsi protected by Nigeria Police etc.. 

I will delete this post later. 

People like Fele, Sunday Igbowo work with political giants o.. you can't pay them 

Igbowo works with Ladoja


Do you know the place they call Koto? It's in Mokola. Find out what they do there.

I know Ibadan like the back of my hand. A police station is at Mokola directly in front of Sabo where 90% of stolen items are sold. APete is known for cult activities and robbery. Mokola is known for same (Ask about Koto boys )



This last one, I was coming from the mall at Sango, drove through General gas and was heading to a house just before Dizenghoff. I got to the gate of the house I was going to, parked and as I was stepping out, the boys came on a bike and the whole shebang happened around 8pm. 

There are also guys that touch the wall of your house and everyone sleeps off. Confirmed Jazz.

We also have car snatches and the likes.

FlyoruB:
The infamously insecure Anambra brigade are so fvcking predictable. Dem don invade this thread with pix of old ibadan settlements, instead of showing us what their own state has to offer.

eshietIntrepid:
I agree from One to three, four should be either calabar and kano, eight to ten is ok.

OBAFEMIawolowo:
The list should be

1. Lagos
2. Abuja
3. Port Harcourt
4. Enugu
5. Ibadan
6. Kaduna
7. Calabar
8. Kano
9. Uyo
10. Owerri.

My opinion though

Movic1:


favela is a slum in rio DJ, brazil it has skyscrappers in the middle and around it,so thats not new. ibadan doesnt start and end in d piz above. The way u guys write/comment about ibadan will make people think that dy re no slums in SE.
