I don't know if Abakpa is bigger than Obiagu but they are the most populated slums in Enugu. Truth is that apart from Independence layout where the government house is and politicians live, the rest of Enugu is unplanned and full of slums. We are just covering the city as old capital of eastern region. But you still see Enugu people attacking Anambra state that is far ahead of them as if Anambra people are their problem. Ever since Anambra state built its own airport, you hardly see Anambra industrialists going to set up anything in Enugu. Currently, there are close to ten medium scale factories being built-in different parts of Anambra state and more are in the pipeline, that may be the cause of envy by these Anambra haters.

So those pictures look fine to you. See how the whole place scatter scatter and look disorganized with winding roads and you are calling it fine. No wonder Nigerian leaders use your brains to play draft.

The problem of Abakpa Nike is mainly its untarred and dusty roads. It's better planned and more built up than Obiagu.

Yes, Abakpa is a slum. It's nothing to be embarrassed about.
Abakpa may not be a slum to you by your standard but by global standard, it is.

That means you can call some entire states a slum, up to 17 states in this country cannot boast of places like this as their state capital.

ABAKPA is not even part of ENUGU capital territory, is just that it's close to the capital.
But even at that it's developed is just like you sending pictures of four corners, amaechi, Garikee and Ugwuaji axis which is also super developed as ENUGU CAPITAL TERRITORY THEY AINT BRO IT'S JUST THAT THEY ARE CLOSER TO THE CAPITAL TERRITORY OF ENUGU.

What then will you say when you see nnewi, abakpa is a well planned city with nice roads, most of them currently under construction.
As l am talking to you businesses are trooping to Abakpa, we have chicken republic about two years ago, Roban stores last year, crunchiest last year, the biggest importer of mini bus came last year and you think such a place is a slum ?

A lot of work is going on in abakpa currently and businesses are trooping in . Old houses along major roads are now hot cakes as investors are ready to pay any amount to buy and demolish them for their businesses since there is no more empty land along major roads.

. even abakpa that you just posted is planned unless you are blind, it is London when compared to nnewi in terms of planing
And almost all neighborhood in Enugu are planed , even the areas government don't know about its existence, the people still plan it in their own way.
Awka and nnewi are the most unplanned town I have ever seen, in Awka you will see ia road bending for a building.
When Peter Obi was governor, he said he has mapped out 500m to plan Awka, Onitsha and nnewi but all na scam.
