shymexx: Nah, I'm in your smelly nyggah-area that has permanently held my people on the choke-hold of retrogression.

Can't wait to fvck out of here.

ifechez: so you don't know the name of flour the mills produce? lol... see the logic of substandard free education at full glare. let me ask u again before I forget, who buys agricultural implement in Nigeria and is the coy owned by a yatibar?

shymexx: Hercules07

Civility and savages are like parallel lines. Let them fight it out dirty.

Hands high to Italiano1, KIRIJI, Superstar1 and eggheaders!!

superstar1: If that is what you see, that is how far your eyes could see.

We see beautification of the face. It is our face, abi.

Suit yourself.

superstar1: That is a proud omo odua


I can assure you, I won't see her in ashi joint like your yellow pawpaw children that would have bleached their skins.
Neither will she be a baby factory machine.

eeeeeee: Outdated Yoruba newspaper quoting stale statistics
Their source is old,i read it.

The proportion of people living in poverty in the
South East region rose from 13 percent in
1980 to 53 percent in 1996, before falling back to 27 percent in 2004. In the South West,
the poverty rate was 43 percent in 2004, up from 13.4 percent in 1980.
The South East’s infant and child mortality rates, at 66 and 103, respectively, are the lowest
of Nigeria’s six regions.

Not surprisingly, the region also exhibits the highest immunization
coverage among children ages 12 to 23 months (45 percent fully vaccinated), the lowest
percentage of children under age five who are stunted (20 percent), and, among women
giving birth, the highest percentage who receive antenatal care from a health professional
(96 percent), two or more doses of tetanus toxoid (77 percent), and assistance by a health
professional during the birth (88 percent).

ketoprofen: Do u know how many upscale restaurants that beat KFC in Enugu?
KFC is in abakiliki road, Enugu.
Since 2007, good restaurants have been on increments in the east such that in GRA, independence layout and esp new heaven, up scale restaurants compete with the number of residential houses.
Even inside the streets of newlayout, Enugu have lots of beta modern Igbo owned restaurants not all these iya eggheaders that full Ibadan.
see how u dey rejoice over KFC.smh

eggheaders: Lols at no money in Ibadan why igbos run to the place to make a living. KFC has an outlet in Ibadan no single one in the whole of alaigbo ditto shop rite has two outlet non in your big for nothing Onitsha. Reason why low standard house will forever remain in Ibadan is because even poor peeps can afford to buy land but can't develop standard buildings unlike alaigbo where the only few available land is exclusively for the rich.

superstar1: It is big enough to have the old and the new.

We don't have to demolish our heritage, to build a house we will resell the decking to another person. For the next millennium, IB has the land to accommodate development.

Get that into red mud tinted skull.

ketoprofen: good.
its good we have agreed that size is immaterial to all these.
fine, so nobody shd give Ibadan the excuse that its big
Big for what? nothing.
capital of 50 yrs

hercules07: There is a need to do more in our SW states, infrastructure is good, we also need the people to have money in their pockets, inasmuch as one east is being tribalistic, we also need to look at the message and do something about the ills that plague our region.

eeeeeee: On a serious note is there nothing that can be done to remove those obnoxious rusted roofs.

Can't the governor mandate them to pull it down

superstar1: It is people like you that they will give Mona Lisa painting too and you will return it am ask them to give you 1mm instead.

That is a beauty that can never be replicated in SE except red mud soil and gully erosion.

That is enduring housing technology of ages. Definitely y1bos never had houses apart from palm fronds hut and on top of trees

Arial.bold:
I actually looked on google scholar to read about this phenomenon and found out that it actually has nothing to do with urbanization. Igboland has been densely populated even before urbanization.even the rural areas were densely populated. The articles I read did not view it in a positive light. It mostly made mention of land erosion, fights over land allocation due to scarcity, migration of igbo people to other parts of Nigeria in search of jobs etc. it seems like a problem. not a good thing.

Another article I read on urbanization actually contrasted igboland with yorubaland and asked the question: even though igboland is twice as densely populated, why didn't they develop cities like the yorubas? LOL This was an article written in 1955. and goes to show that igboland is not densely populated because of urbanization. I mean, the rural areas wouldn't be as dense if that were the case.
So why is it densely populated then?

superstar1: What a beautiful sight of ancient houses with same height and same colour of roof. This beauty can only be seen in SW. No wonder oyinbos come all the way to watch this beautiful sight. Another place you can see ancient beautiful houses are Kano and Zaria, north of Nigeria .

God bless our forefathers and their enduring authentic african housing technology that can rival oyinbos housing technology for ages.

For your info, we call it "a view of brown canopy roof"

Where is the raffia leaves hut of some people?

Arial.bold:
maybe it's due to urbanization?




wow. the entire igboland is the size of Oyo state.

KIRIJI: eaglechild:
I AM A PRODUCT OF AN INCE.S.T

KIRIJI: According to Dr alex anozie, the Ohaneze Ndigbo oyo state chapter, 'They are more ibos residing in oyo than they are in ebonyi which is even an ibo state'

KIRIJI: Shut the f*ck up you b1tch. You say yorubaland is a ghetto yet thousands of your brothers keep flooding yorubaland in search for a better life. The oyo state you so much despise has a larger population of ibos therein than ebonyi state which is an ibo state; This is acoording to Dr Alex anosike the Ohaneze Ndigbo oyo state chapter

superstar1: Even a toad can never claim onitsha.

Segeggs: anambra and imo men will start to claim lagosian and ibadanian if FG should by his idea. Dubiuos ibos.
