If you call Ibadan slum, that means Lagos is slum considering Ajegule and all those other gutter places in Lagos

Ikeja is not even more developed than owerri. Not to talk of port harcourt.

I an swear that you have never been to Port Harcourt
It's 2023 and there's someone, a Nigerian for that matter that thinks there's a state more developed than Lagos..... Damm!!! There's a lot of education to be done

The honest truth is that Lagos is the only manageable region in the entire South West, which is why every yoruba man claims Lagos.

Ibadan is on the same level as Kwara state, but we're not ready for this conversation
A quick search on the Internet and you will be convinced Ibadan is among Top 5 out of all the 36

you lack ability to reason. I didn't say there's a state more developed than lagos, I said there are capitals more developed than Ikeja.

Awka is the worst that I have ever seen. Basically looks like a village.
You haven't been to Awka before, just shut up.

Awka is 10x better than any of those slums in the south-waste.

This is nothing but pure hatred If you think Owerri or any Capital in that region is more developed than Ikeja. Have you seen whole of Ikeja before, what more development are you expecting from that city ? Little to zero bad road, everywhere is littered with traffic light. No matter where you reside in Ikeja, there's banks, hospitals, and companies near you... Is that same for the Owerri you are comparing to Ikeja ?...

Not to even go far, which shopping mall in Owerri is better than Ikeja City Mall ?
Not to even talk of the fact there's International Airport in that same ikeja you are comparing to the Owerri.... Bro, it's a total insult to even put Owerri and ikeja in same sentence....

No matter where you are in Nigeria, you will have a reason to come to Ikeja, state one reason that will make me come to Owerri. Just state one freaking good thing in Owerri that will make me wanna come...... it was even in this page I remember there's a city called Owerri

Never new Jericho, Dugbe, New Bodija, Adeoyo, Mobil Ring Road, Eleyele, General Gas, Sharp Corner, Akobo, Omolayo, Akala Way, are not in Ibadan and those are just the few i decided to mention, the list is longer... And am pretty sure you know not even one out of the more than 10 GRA in Ibadan was mentioned, likes of Iyaganku GRA, Agodi GRA, Alalubosa GRA, Onireke GRA, and the rest.....

I belive anytime you come to Ibadan, you have no one to take you around, reason for your myopic reasoning....

Thats fair, Owerri Mall really outbeat Ikeja Mall.... But Wonder why you've never sent pictures of Owerri international Airport

But there's something you are missing out. All the best things in Imo state are in Owerri... that's not the same for Lagos state, if you want to enjoy life and sleep in exotic hotels, Island is there, and Island is part of Lagos state and you can agree no enjoyment in Owerri outbeat that of Island.... Ikeja is pretty closer to Island than Owerri is, that's a plus....

And just like I said, what more development are you expecting from ikeja, you want the houses to be pulled down and rebuilt ? That capital already have all social amenities....

We are talking about Owerri and Ikeja and not Imo state and Lagos state. Ikeja no be owerri mate.

Seriously, Ikeja is small. The international Airport is not in Ikeja, it's the local airport that is in Ikeja. The international Airport is in oshodi isolo local government, ask anybody that knows Lagos.

I know both places well.

owerri has better planning, better roads, better serenity, better hotels, better shopping malls and it's bigger than Ikeja. Accept it and let peace reign.

You must travel out of this your enclave to see things for yourself.

I served in port Harcourt, I was there for 1 years and it's mile ahead of Ikeja. It's not even close

Ahhh there's Lagoon, Duchess...and many others...
Hospitals worth more than 1m USD in setup. Ikeja may have small land mass but the investment there is heavy.
