Abia1stboy:
While Abia state remains the worst state in Nigeria

Abia has infrastructural deficit, but then... Abia still lead all the Northern states in Education and production. Half of local footwears in Nigeria is made in Aba.
What does North produce?

Arewa Amaka o....

Texman21:
putting emotions before facts as usual.we have nothing to offer to the world?google is ur friend.

Texman, the only thing North produces that may not "ready" available in the East now... Is Tomatoes, Beans, Soya and Beef. The rest is also grown locally, example Abakaliki Rice, Yam from Benue.
Otuocha in Anambra does Yam and Rice too.

Calling my assertion petty I couldn't let it slide.

MasterKernel:
Arewa! You've been running away from my mention, I'm looking forth for an opportunity to cut you into sizes.

You're not better than the Almajiri, is Onitsha Ugbo Eastern Nigeria? It's Delta State. Don't even make the mistake of comparing South South to North, that will be a mistake.

South south is worst than South east...dont worry i go soon table una matter

Benue is North Central, I was referring to Core North, thanks.

South South! Awerra!!! Have you eaten today? I'm not from Niger Delta, I'm Omo Igbo, but I dare you to compare Niger Delta to North.

They're literally feeding you.

On what basis can the two measure?... Please relax.

1. Economics
2. Sports
3. Innovation
4. Education
5. Development
6. Human resources
7. Natural resources

since you're an igbo... Then come and defend your backward south east... Leave Niger Delta alone... Doing everything possible to force Niger Delta into Biafra Because of oil... Them no want una... Form your Biafra with your 5 unproductive states

Continue posting the same pics three months in a row.....be deceiving your ancestors

No condition is permanent

I love the fact that you took up my challenge.

You called Eastern Nigeria unproductive states, good. Need I remind you that Eastern Nigeria leading is on the following indices.

1. Education
2. Sports(Football)
3. Commerce (SMEs)
4. Entertainment Industry
5. Innovation


North has the following indices

* 3rd and 4th deadliest global terrorists groups
* 3rd highest IDP Camps
* Poverty Capital of the world
*Highest out-of School Children
* States with the highest drug addiction
* World Illiteracy Capital
* Hunger
*
Emir Sanusi and IMF has warned that Northern Nigeria is ravaged by extreme poverty, without free money from the South, Sudan will be aiding you. With all the imbalance in terms of Federal allocation, yet... You can only boost of major roads, with no form emancipation from Northern leaders.

In the East, there's balance in wealth creation. Multinationals are there as well as the SMEs.

Brilliant thread Arrewa.

I created a similar thread a few years ago under a different moniker, with more pictures of our state capitals (though not as recent as yours).

Feel free to use as you wish.

Kudos Allah ya taimaka.

Arrewa:
God bless the North

These are some really beautiful pictures, I must admit, the photographer is gifted, he would do a lot more if given the opportunity to, however, these are shallow beautification projects and not the development that we need as a country, the north should focus on poverty, illiteracy, unemployment, out of school children and terrorism. Bridges, roads and flyovers are not development, they are just for eyeservice.

In my home state, with an estimated population of 7million in it's largest city, less than 21% of the people are living in poverty, while in states like sokoto, almost the inverse is the case, nearly 80% of the populace lives in poverty, these northern states need to set their priorities right.

Arrewa:
yes I do

Heard that you guys have fine guys. Would like to open a start up there

VicThory:

we will gladly welcome you to the land of honey and milk...

Boko boys will wake up one day and reduce these beauties to pebbles

CSTR2:

Nobody will stop them.

You can go and join the north in their new poverty republic.

Your moniker reminds me of days as a chemical engineering student.

Nice pictures. I love OP's attempt to change the narrative about his region. The North should have the lead in terms of state government infrastructure in Nigeria.

What about intellectual and moral development

I hope #BokoHaram don't come to shred it down within a twinkle of an eye.

Parts of the North no doubt, but don't say everywhere.

North is that developed and their youths are constituting nuisance here in south west.

Arrewa:
Hausafulani Mara mma

this is really beautiful. Please look for a beautiful hausa girl for me. between 18-21 I don't mind converting to Islam.

meanwhile, the real northerners are out there with plates begging for whatever a southerner can drop into the plate. even if na poison dem go collect.. Mumu governors, building structures for looting purposes whilst human capital development is close to zero..

Human capital development, I think that is the major problem of the north, the south need infrastructural development more than the north, human capital development the south are there.
