It's not about having other tribes. Every state have other tribe. The list above is fair enough. Onitsha and Asaba are not cosmopolitan. Those places are heavily, tribally controlled. Lagos, Abuja, and PH (I that order) are the cosmopolitan states we have NIgeria as of now. Kano also come a little close.
They don't understand it to that level.Who will allow a non indigene to occupy elective position in Onitsha and Asaba? But go to Lagos,Abuja and Kaduna and see things for yourself.Dats wot we called Cosmopolitan States.

Take this rubbish list away. What is Kano doing there? A barbaric state for that matter! Where is Onitsha? Where is Calabar? U drink soap true true

Have you ever been to Kano before you debunk that assertion? FYI, Kano is far more cosmopolitan than Anambra or calabar state. The different is even clear

Remove KANO & ENUGU from your list.

IBADAN is not a state. Put OYO instead.

Then repalce those two earlier mistakes with CROSS RIVER & DELTA

Kaduna is one city where no one really has an ancestral linkage to...
Most people in kawo are from kano,katsina,sokoto states originally,most people in Kakuri are from kogi,osun and benue states,and most people in sabo Tasha and barnawa are Igbo's ,ss or the middle belt..
Igbo's have been known to contest and hold seats in Kaduna south,Yoruba's are currently commissioners in Kaduna state...in my opinion thats croc city is the most cosmopolitan city in Nigeria especially when you factor the numerous institutions in that state...
A great example is oshiomole who had a house in ungwar rimi without having a house in Benin and dasuki who's lived in Kaduna while being a prince of the sokoto caliphate

Edo ? grin. I think I'll pass
Edo has been cosmopolitan before Eko was even founded.
Sure Lagos later grew as British Lagos colony with much trade and later as FCT.

I guess many people don't know what cosmospolitan means.

The most cosmopolitan states have something in common : most were or are FCT, Regional capitals or otherwise historically commercially important. People have moved to these places since centuries and decades to try their luck, or be close to seat of power : Lagos, Oyo, Abuja, Kaduna, Edo, Enugu, Kano, Rivers and such fit in.

Sample the mix of people in these places and see the mix of people.

Plateau, Sokoto and Delta are also very diverse. Akwa Ibom and Cross Rivers has increased too.

Nearness of Niger and Nassarawa states to Abuja and Ogun to Lagos have made these places increasingly diverse too.

Some like Lagos have HQs or major offices of multi-national companies.

Plateau, Sokoto and Delta are also very diverse. Akwa Ibom and Cross Rivers have recently increased in diversity also.

They are called LAGOS-IBADAN media for a reason

They're something else! Always trying to compare and bring out charts and statistics where they will place themselves at the top! Meanwhile they're oblivious of the fact their country has been declared as having the highest number of broke ass niggers in the world, and a shithole to boot![/quote]
