They are there too and they prefer it because of the relative peace unlike warri but make no mistake Asaba is Igbo to the core.

There are many ibibios and efik people living in Aba but that doesn't make Aba any less Igbo.

Whenever I stay in Asaba, I speak only Igbo and everyone responds in Igbo.

Afam4eva:
What you just stated here is exactly why i asked the question. I've never lived in Asaba but i come across people from that axis a lot and even those who lived kost of their lives tend to be more Pro pidgin english than Igbo.

Except the people never lived in Asaba. All Asaba speaks Onitsha-like Igbo. Every one of them.

Afam4eva:
I pray so.

Most of our government policy favor green. The government house in Enugu is in a big forest in the centre of the city and surrounded by tall trees.

I will get more Enugu pictures this evening.

Afam4eva:
How Igbocentric is Asaba? Does one hear Igbo being spoken like one would in Enugu or Awka?

Most certainly. Igbo is the only local lingo in Asaba. Even up to Agbor.

Afam4eva:
My fear is that one day an idiotic baboon will become the governor of Enugu and ask that those trees be cut down. I dread that day.

That day may never come. Ever.
Almost all the trees were planted by private property owners and government has no control over such privacy.

One can easily be made to believe that this place is Obodo NdiOcha


Enugwu is beautiful.

True. There are parts of Enugu which can pass for most Oyibo land. More pictures loading..........

Asaba is growing rapidly. My brother and I bought 2 plots of land there last year December close to the airport. We plan to build flats there. Spyder880 I will let you know once we are ready to develop the plot.

Also Asaba plots are generally bigger in measurements. They measure 100 by 100 while other plots measure 100 by 50.

Wow! 100x100 is big. will fit a big house with some good space. I will be waiting for your call bro.

Let me not lie. The Owerri that i went to on 3 different occasions just 2 months ago was not impressive at all. I prefer the Owerri that i went to severally in 2015/2016. Now, it just seems like almost every road is bad and even the ones that used to be okay have been destroyed all in the name of reconstructing them. A case in point is Wetheral Road.

The only important thing to note is that the Owerri you will meet next time you visit will be much more impressive. Not because of the efforts of the government but the will of the people to live in a developed region. I praise Igbos and their determination to leave a legacy for the younger generation, a legacy of self created decency borne out of education and exposure to better ways of doing things.

The government is not as important as we think, the collective will of the people is the paramount issue here.

^^ Isn't that beside Priceless Stores?

I don't think so, priceless stores are around New Owerri.
