If truth be told,banter aside the south east and south south states ,even the northern states are more beautiful than the southwest states.

This is the reality,even Ibadan and abeokuta though developed is not as beautiful as most northern states.

The southwest have very rustic cities
I think the southwest should look into remodeling and beautification of its cities

Kaduna as been remodelled and upgraded, kano has been remodelled.

Less popular cities like Bauchi are far more beautiful than southwestern cities.

What is wrong with southern Nigeria, is it the governments or people?

I think what you don't understand is that the south west states development is beyond the state capital hence why u think south west is not developed...They spread it to other areas...In Nigeria standards ,south western states do have other cities the government do develop simultaneously...For example in Ogun state, asides the state capital, there are other cities like Sagamu, sango OTA, ijebu ode, ago iwoye, ijebu Igbo,ilaro whereas in Enugu, it's only Enugu town that development is centred on even Nsukka is being neglected by the state government.

That's not the reason,in the south south,there are other cities apart from the capital,Edo as other developing towns,same with delta and akwaibom,even the East and Middlebelt. That argument is flawed.

Southwest cities aren't beautiful, because attention is not played to orderliness and organisation,and the rusty old buildings are just too much

All these Orlu,Nsukka are in the class of Ibafo in Ogun state while Aba can be compared to Mowe in Ogun state if you know these towns I mentioned well...I lived in the East and I know all these places you mentioned very well.You are a mediocre for comparing Nsukka with Oyo...Asides the university, can you list any infrastructure outside the university...I mean in the town...No infrastructure...No motorable road in the whole of Nsukka...They are all bad...Asides Owerri and Orlu in Imo state, can you mention another Town in Imo state?Aside Aba and Umuahia in Abia state, mention another Town?What has the government put in place as infrastructure in all these so called towns you mentioned.

This is what you guys always say to comfort yourselves but he is telling you the raw truth. The state of many major South West cities is alarmingly disturbing. Very old and dirty and unkempt!

Take away Lagos, the South West has the most rustic and archaic cities in Nigeria. And I am not saying this out of malice. I have lived in the north, was born in the east and have also been to atleast 3 major South West cities. Your cities are hellish.

Go to Dutse and see how Lamido transformed an old town into a new city. Go to Kano and Kaduna. Even Gombe! But once you enter Abeokuta or Oshogbo, you start to wonder what's going on.

I live in the north...I know all these places you mentioned...But do you realize that it's the south east that is benefitting more from the federal system Nigeria practices? Imagine Oyo state with almost the land mass of South east has 5 states? Meaning what is given to Oyo state that has the size of South east , south east collects 5 times of it as FAAC monthly yet no visible development in the south east.When a particular state is being cheated with FAAC coupled with migration to the region how do you expect that region to grow? What this means is that the south west has been the states shouldering the responsibilities of most states by providing infrastructures for these Nigerians that have found succour in the region.This is the reason the south west has been clamouring for regionalism because they know they are being cheated.

The money shared by the federal government to different governing units in the country, comes from mainly two sources; Oil and Gas and duties collected at the ports . The South East that you are desperate to malign contributes mega sums from the two areas. Igbo businesses keep your ports running! Otherwise, Tin Can will be as busy as the Lome Port! Since Buhari and his government stoped sharing Oil money, most of the cash shared to states come from duties paid at the ports. Do your checks; Upto 60 of all the containers cleared in Nigerian ports, are transported to Onitsha!

Again, You can not be talking about Land mass here. Allocations are not shared to trees! Allocations are for humans and the South South East is the most densely populated area of the country bar Lagos! Again they contribute most via trades taxes/duties, so it's very wrong for you to be hyperventilating about the sharing formula. Why are we not sharing money from your Cocoa sells? Why are the fulanis not bringing their earnings from their cow sells so we share? Do they even pay taxes? You tuck in your earnings into your inner pockets and then come online to be arguing about the proper ways to share other peoples resources?

Olodo, why not focus on the coming election instead of chasing shadows?

Have you collected your PVC? Who do you intend to vote for?

No region in Nigeria is developed because of criminals running the government and that's why we want to elect Peter Obi for a better Nigeria.

Tinubu urchins are now creating stupid threads to cause confusion after realizing that Nigerians have rejected him.

Nigerian youths shine your eyes, don't fall for their foolishness. Ensuring that Tinubu comes 4th in the election is a task that must be accomplished.

This thread is useless and unnecessary at this time, let's focus on the election.
