You don't have to quote everything all over again pls, edit your post. Some people are using data to browse, that Is why I didn;t post pictures of every single city.
Ilesha is no more than 350,000 at most.

Southwest Nigeria. The most beautiful, best developed, tranquil and peaceful region in Nigeria. Rich in history and their ancient past, yet modern, egalitarian and evolving!

Op, as at 1991, Ogbomosho's population stood at 650,000 therefore it's probably double that today.

Probably The combined populations of Ogbomosho North and South local government areas.
Many of us take LGA populations as city populations.

Ilesha was bigger than Oshogbo before, but not anymore.
Offa is comparable to Iwo town, not Ishagamu. Shagamu is scattered and has many satellite settlements.

Point of correction bro. Yeeeb.o people don't have cities in iboland, rather they have 'townships' and 'villages'. They have to leave their region for places like Lag or Ibadan to experience city life. Onitsha, Enugu, Aba are all parts of their collective 'villages'. cheesy

lol...op if you dont have the intention of harming your pple just delete this thread. Everybody knows that lagos is the only city in yorubaland as was confessed by one of you some months ago. Mentioning hamlets like owo and ilesha without pics is just to fill the space in pretence that u dont wanna consume data. When it comes to cities Igboland wins from commercial and industrial ones like

port harcourt
onitsha
Aba
nnewi

to serene and neat ones like

Enugu
owerri
asaba
awka
umuahia

even agbor beat most of the hamlets u posted

I repeat lagos is the only city in entire yorubaland. Op should have just shown us some photoshoped pictures of "lagos at night" instead of posting all the local govt headquaters in yorubaland as cities. As for akure, she is just a member of brown group of towns that litter lagos ibadan expressway.
By the way have u gotten over the oyo tremour? Till then keep your stale 'erosion' jargon.
