You are comparing this with Ibadan, are you not ashamed? Onitcha by landmass is 52km square while Ibadan alone is 3,080km square by landmass. If you put all these your beautiful houses in Ibadan, it can not fill one local government in ibadan.

If you divide Ibadan by Onitcha i.e 3080/52 = 60; this implies you will see 60 Onitcha cities in 1 Ibadan. Beautiful houses are spread in Ibadan because of landmass while Onitcha houses are compacted in a small landmass area that can not fill half of one local government in Ibadan.

Out of 33 local governments in Oyo state, Ibadan alone has 11 local government areas. If you divide 60 by 11, you have approximately 6, it means Onitcha city as a whole can only fill 1/6th of a single local government in Ibadan.

Can you now see how funny you people are when comparing Onitcha with Ibadan? Google is your friend, you can do the calculation and research by yourself. Empty barrel makes loudest noise! And upon your empty noise, if you never reach that brown roof republic to hawk gala and hustle in multitude, you never reach your 'Obodo-oyinbo'

Some years ago a very tribalistic fellow followed me to my 'village' ,he is a tiller , he spent 1 month on the job, when he returned he almost fought me, reason ? Why did I call estate , village...


Anyway he is married to an Igbo lady and he is based in Ihiala ... He speaks Igbo more than me, and he is now completely Igbo, he now calls me Yoruba man.



We have done well since after the war, considering what we have in Nigeria

Ibadan is 95% slums and shanties, so what's the need of having big useless landmass filled with ghettos. Mind you Lagos is the smallest state in Nigeria. Now can you also do the same comparison between Ibadan and Lagos.

You talk ignorantly and I laughed at your foolishness in 3D. Do you really know what slum is all about? Do you know that acute housing deficit is one of the major cause of slum? Your small areas are crowded, no big motorable roads; major areas are fast turning to slum gradually.

At moment, there are many slum areas in Onitcha metropolis compared to Ibadan. Do you know that even internationally, UN-Habitat even identified four main slum settlements within Onitsha metropolis to include: Mammy Market Slum, Otu Slum, Okpoko Slum and Prison Slum. However, Okpoko Slum is the largest.

You can reference it here to confirm your stupidity:

http://article.sapub.org/10.5923.j.arch.20170704.05.html
If four slums can be identified only in that small enclaved city, tell me what is left in Onitcha landmass ? Cite internationally recognized slum in Ibadan to back up your claim. The whole Onitcha building can only fill 1/6th of Ibadan based on previous analysis. Google it and do your calculation.

Stop embarrassing yorubas here, there is no single slum in Onitsha.

Ibadan is almost 100% slum with exclusion of their government house and few buildings

This is what you see when you view Ibadan from top. Ibadan is almost 100% covered with mud houses and rustic brown roofs.

Honestly you are a daft! Do you think cities are rated based on how big they are? You rate cities based on how well planned they're, presence of essential amenities etc.
Can you compare Ibadan to Lagos/Abuja/PH? Mind you IB is bigger than all of them.
I live in Ibadan at the moment, IB is also a beautiful place to live and raise kids. Let's appreciate ourselves and free our hearts and minds from hate.

Stop running away from the main thread! You can't even compare yourself with Lagos. In population alone, Lagos city alone is times five of Onitcha population. You should expect volume of housing to be more in Lagos than that your small enclave. However, Ibadan metropolis is more in population than your enclave zone.

That's because southwest was already living in houses with galvanized roofing sheets, while your grandparents were still typing wrapper, living in huts with thatched roofs to fight clan wars with cutlasses.

Stop running away from the main issue! What is well planned with tiny road and compacted building? You can't even compare yourself with Lagos and Rivers. In population alone, Lagos and pH city alone is more than Onitcha population. You should expect volume of housing to be more in Lagos and PH than that your small enclave.

However, Ibadan metropolis is more in population than your enclave zone. So, why leaving the thread topic discussion to hide under canopy of Lagos? Beside, why raising your children in Ibadan and turn Ibadan to your 'Obodo-Oyinbo', you should have gone back to that slum-micro city.

The whole buildings and landmass in Onitcha can only fill 1/6th of a single local government in Ibadan based on previous analysis. Shame on you, despite many years of allocation from federal government + drug money, this is the only development you can boast of on 52km square landmass? Very shameful!

If it is a land of millionaire, why not staying there to make your millions? Why must your comming to West be like your fertile land, your Obodo-Oyinbo where you can hawk gala and raise your children for better future than what you lived in small enclave Onitcha before running down to Ibadan to secure future for your children?
