Ibadan alone is more known and more relevant than any of your South East states though. Many of your prominent intellectuals schooled there, lol. Source for your utterly spurious, codeine-influenced, chest-beating, paranoid IPOB claim that "Less than 20% of Ibadan is developed" and "Mbaise my village in Imo have more house per square meter than full Ibadan"? I'm waiting.

Lol, you see tell that to those who have not been to those places.
POC, GRAs doesn't have brown roofs because of cost of lands. (How will you buy land 700k per plot and use those zinc roof?)

In port Harcourt, your assertion is wrong.
rather you should say, people are building morden houses in New settlements.(which happens everywhere).

Don't even talk about Uyo
Oga if u have money would u leave your brown roof like that ?

Get your facts right, Ibadan is not the only city in Oyo state. There is Oyo town itself, Oke Ogun area, shaki etc. Pls if you don't know, do a little visiting not research on internet as most of the information on internet about Nigeria are written by those who don't even live in the country. Are there slums in Ibadan? yes but that is the price of being a huge city in landmass, there is a reason why the city is in the Top 10 and it's because of its continued progress.

Am I the only one or is there someone else who has noticed that recently, any issue affecting the whole of nigeria, like bad policies from the government, increased in VAT, electricity bill or fuel pump price increase..the Igbos hardly join in protest. When I said Igbos I mean the 5 South eastern states.

Is this to show that despite majority of Igbos being against this government, yet those that supported the government(especially north and south west) are the ones being hit by the famine? Cause there has been series of protests in Abuja, Lagos and some other northern and south western states, yet the 5 eastern states are quiet about it and going about their normal businesses.

Two things are involved,
1. It is either the Igbos don't see the challenges as a burden. Or

2. Igbos truly don't care about Nigeria and only interested in Biafra.. meaning whatever is happening in Nigeria is none of their business.
The reality is that Igbos didn't believe in Buhari to deliver and they made it known to everyone, they have been punished for it by much federal presence except the historical second Niger Bridge. Those who believed in Buhari as the saviour are they ones lamenting now

I HAVE LONG TOLD OUR YORUBA BROTHERS THAT THE REAL CAPITAL CITY OF NIGERIA IS ONITSHA.


LAGOS AND ABUJA IS ARTIFICIAL CREATION MADE POSSIBLE BY NIGERDELTA OIL AND GAS.


ONITSHA IS A NATURAL COMMERCIAL CITY THAT HAS BEEN IN EXISTENCE EVEN BEFORE THE BRITISH ARRIVED.


IT IS THE CENTER FOR TRADE AND COMMERCE IN NIGERIA, NATURALLY.



GO TO ONITSHA, U WILL FIND FULANI, HAUSA, YORUBA AND ALL THE TRIBES IN NIGERIA.

But why do you want to stay anywhere like homeless refugees from wartorn countries? Do you like the way your fellow Osu people are being treated like unwanted parasites in South Africa, Ghana, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Cambodia etc? Don't you think it's to go back home now that Onitsha is a "paradise"?

Kip kwayet and make research before spewing your nonsense.
Your silly landmass thing has been dealt with before, for the education of everyone, the landmass used for Onitsha is that for old Onitsha and leaving the newer and more populated areas out, just like limiting the landmass and population for Lagos to Lagos Island, Ikoyi and the Iddo areas, not even V.I and Lekki is included.
Mushin, Ikeja, Agege etc are not even remembered.
That for your Ibadan is for Ibadanland and not the built up Ibadan. So if we are to go with your nonsense from Wikipedia then Ibadan is as big as Lagos state, do I need to tell you it's false?

You are so dumb.

The landmass measurements for both Ibadan and Onitsha were done by Google.They did not favour either Onitsha over Ibadan or Ibadan over Onitsha.
Onitsha is too much a toddler compared to Ibadan.

Everybody knows that Ibadan is more developed than the entire Igboland.

Ibadan is too much and exponentially developed than Onitsha which is the developed area of Igboland.

Ibadan has more than 9 GRAs.It is the only city in Nigeria with the highest number of GRAs.

Ibadan has two Olympic size and standard stadia and many other stadia.

Ibadan has more than 12 higher institutions.

Ibadan has 5 mega malls and many other big malls scattered all over its 3,080 sq km (it is far bigger than this of course) landmass.

Ibadan has skyscrapers even more than any other state except Lagos,Abuja and maybe Portharcourt.

Ibadan has more estates than any state in the SE.

Ibadan has better road network than the whole Igboland.

Ibadan has numerous research centers than the entire SEastern states.

Pls,where does little toddler Onitsha come close to Ibadan in development in all of these?


Or are you a comedian?

How can Onitsha be 40 - 55% of Ibadan when ibadan is much more bigger than Anambra?

or have you forgotten SE in general is a bit bigger than Oyo state as a whole

How can Ibadan, which is now way smaller than Lagos metropolis, be bigger than Anambra state which is bigger than Lagos state? Does it make any sense to you?

Don't you know the difference between Ibadan as a city and Oyo state which has Ogbomosho, Oyo-ile, Iseyin, Shaki and co.?

You've been all over this thread and it's clear you don't even know much about this topic. You can see why I have always said that majority of Nigerians are loud even on topics they know little about.
