IMO try small

Imo is finer and more developed both based on picture and live experience. Akwaibom is comparable to Ebonyi in good roads, flyovers and public structures but beautiful private investments are missing. That's why the pictures on this thread are focused on either roads or government structures without full view of well built cities.

Proud to call it y State..
Lovely work..
Many ask if this is Nigeria, yes it is.
BUT we have one problem.
MAINTENANCE...
It is not about putting up lovely structures, the thing is are they functioning?
And they are, Are they maintained?

Accept it or not, Akpabio is the one that change the face of akwa ibom in terms of development and other areas. Before now akwa ibomite were known for house boy and girl. Akpabio change that syndrome in his 8yrs in office. Today Akwa ibomite are proud anywhere they are to say I am from Akwa ibom.

God bless Godswill Akpabio.

chijokz:

I beg to differ.
His predecessor Victor Attah began changing the narrative and set the foundation on which Akpabio continued.

I have been to Ikot Ekpene and Uyo, very clean cities. Kudos to all AkwaIbomites

This is what Yorubas, Igbos and northerners are afraid of that they will never leave ND oil alone for ND to handle. They don't want one side to look like Dubai and then the other side like the Morocco desert.

It looks nice and like someone said, Uyo's economy isn't thriving that much. In Onitsha the economy is thriving but the government can't keep up with road construction. See this estate full of beautiful mansions built on dusty roads.

Bro,most state focus their developments mostly on the state capital, with little to show in the rest towns in the entire state.
Pls,just change it to 5 top most beautiful cities in Nigeria.
I hardly see a state with all it's towns & cities called beautiful.

kingsavage:

Hahahaha he is still pained. Uyo and Awka are beautiful cities that has made Ibadan village look like a glorified rural area. Tell your governor to upgrade your Ibadan village so you can be proud to post like others. Ibadan is a glorified village and should be demolished.

Pictures: massive Ibadan village adorned with brown rustic roof and mud houses.

bro, pls you can't compare ibadan with other because it's ancient city like kano with big land mass(biggest in nigeria and west africa). i repeat no Governor can develop ibadan in 20 years, go and look at some massive development in some area in ibadan bigger than many state capital.

we see

The joy alone on being in these serene environment will add a bonus to your life span.

Uyo is a nice city.

Good food.

Neat, green environment.

Decent hotels

Ekiti come and see your mate ooo.
But where are these people getting money from?

We are all Nigerians outside Nigeria.

Goalnaldo:
Beautiful. Is this Nigeria? The future of that City is bright

See foolish question, is Zimbabwe not Nigeria, one skyscraper in the whole of a city and you're shouting up and down

They have come again, media deception.

Rossnitti:


Yes it is. ...And it's not even near the national capital or major cities.

Just a little town in some remote corner of the country.

In most other African countries like Ghana, Kenya, Rwanda, etc, this level of development can only be seen in the national capital.

Not so in our federal republic.

That is why we call Nigeria the Giant of Africa.

See this ignoramus, which of those countries have goh travelled to,some universities inside Ghana has more sophisticated buildings not to talk of Nairobi

pocohantas:
Their roads are neat and similar. Missed my way, but thanks to Google Map and a hawker.

The second pic was the point I cleared and activated my Google Map.

hi pocohantas. Can we have a meet and greet session tomorrow?

Are these current pictures? Because when I was in Uyo few years ago, the Ibom plaza looked run down and unkempt. Please present accurate pictures.

Sammy07:
Mehnnn, Uyo has left Delta, Calabar and Rivers behind sha.
within a space of 10yrs.

This is what happens when you have visionary leaders.
Tho Calabar is also trying, even without Oyel money.

Calabar is now a shadow of itself due to bad leadership. Before Uyo becomes what it is today, Calabar use to pride itself as the cleanest greenest city in Nigeria, but now it is nothing to write home about. Tinapa used to be Africa's Premier Business and Leisure Resort.... But the vast land and buildings there has been overtaken by weeds.
Someone earlier today posted about how Efiks were the ones selling other tribes to the during slave trade, and I replied him that while other people are developing their states he is talking about who sold who to who, and which culture was deported to where and all sort of nonsense.
Akwa Ibom is moving towards the direction of modern development. Akwa Ibom is the land of promise.

privaldo:


Please speak of what of you know, there is no need to lie to push a narrative. You haven't been to Kenya or Rwanda, if not you won't say any of this.

Don't mind the ignoramus, let him go to Nairobi and marvel
This is the Nairobi(kenya) he is comparing to akwa ibom

Lol see what I mean. Choose 2 out 3 cities. Now tell us which is city and village? Hahahaha

Take a look Olawoore, see why Ibadan is a glorified village. Tell your governor to emulate what has been done in Uyo and Awka. See how cities are developed


Pictures: Uyo, Awka and Ibadan

Stop disgracing yourself, anybody with half a brain that has been to Ibadan Ibadan won't compare it with a city that is just developing, the fact that you just go to Google and picked the first image you see there shows how ignorant you are

Nice pictures. I was there some years back and saw the growing infrastructures and beauty

Calabar is not trying anything. Ben Ayade only knows how to speak English. What Calabar is enjoying is past glory. Though Calabar is very neat. That is the only reason I like it. The state is majoring a civil service state

Calm down, Nigeria is not giant anything. These are oil producing states and should be way more than this.

No state in Nigeria has stable electricity, none has water supplied by govt, none has proper housing scheme..none has proper emergency services, the cities are so organized, generator nosie eveywhere, open gutters, poor waste management system, poor health care system, poor educational system, etc. Development does not mean fine fine houses. Development goes beyond that. We need to hold our leaders accountable. We can afford better country but our leaders have decided to loot away our resources.

These other counties u mentioned are not as rich such as Nigeria..

Compare Nigeria with her rich mates like Egypt, South Africa, morocco, Tunisia, Algeria. Nigeria is not near these countries in terms of development. Don't even talk of smaller and more organized countries like Botswana and Namibia. Well secured and regarded as upper middle class country. That is a huge plus.

These countries have stable football leagues with great tourism industry that attracts massive Europeans. And u know what it takes to have great tourism industry that attteacts Europeans? That means u must have working systems.

Nigeria shouldn't be comparing her self with Ghana, Kenya, these countries are not as rich as Nigeria. Yet, they are more organized than Nigeria.

Why are northern states not here. Lagos is not fine please. Only the Island is fine. The mainland are not fine. Many northern capitals are beautiful too. Northern state capitals have some of the best road in Nigeria.
