Not only Ibadan. Oshogbo, abeokuta, ife, ondo, ekiti, ijebu, oyo town, etc all have one thing in common: preponderance of mud houses with rusty brown roofs.

With our money right

You wish. BTW, oil us now below $40 per barrel. Very soon, you will be drinking the oil.

Quality people/tribes don't make to much noise or beg for appointments, their works speaks for them.

Until she can compete with the likes of Oteh, Okonjo and Obi and uncountable other Igbo ladies at the international level, she remains a local oduduwa champion. Why not let's see her CV? We know FBN is a yoruba bank, so no biggie.

u wish u have an institute like IITA in the cave u came from right.

u wish to have the first Skyscraper in alaibo right? )
what about the first university? almighty Lagos nko?
lol. iboes are no match to the Yoruba's!
get that Intl your thin skull
NOTE: Your opinion doesn't matter.

I ask you again, what are you doing here?

WIZGUY69:
To tell u that alaibo is backward & underdeveloped!
oya hang ursef.

You are an insecure heeeeediot

WIZGUY69:
Oga! Are u sure u are Yoruba man?
U keep dancing to the tunes of the iboes.
Reread the topic carefully.
Eastern neighbourhood!
Not comparism between eastern neighbourhood and western neighbourhood.
If it's comparing niegbourhood, the iboes can't stand the Yoruba's.
I swear to God!

What then are you doing on this thread?

forgiveness:
Fine. that's all i wanted to the know and all you said also confirmed that Oyinbo's and Ndigbo's are also found in Ibadan Neighbourhood.

IITA is not your "neighbourhood". It is locked up and secluded from your people. Only staff snd residents have access.

Besides, there are really no impressive architectural masterpieces at IITA, just well maintained environment, great labs and farms.

Speaking about forests, there used to be very dense forested lands between Udi and Oji River from the old road. Are they still there? Also, lots of them along Enugu-PH road

forgiveness:
Is IITA in Ibadan?

Yes, but not built nor managed by a Yoruba or by NIGERIA. Indeed, it is an oases in the midst of the poverty and brown roofs of Ibadan. BTW, the highest ranking Nigerian ever to work in IITA is an Igbo man who was the DDG, Prof Okigbo.

I read an article comparing IITA and UI. The article discusses how they were at par, infrastructurally speaking, in the 60s and early 70s. Today compare and contrast.

Cjrane2:
There are no longer any forests left in Igboland. However, you are 100% right. People should plant more trees and flowers. Especially in urban areas. Someone had actively been planting pine and palm trees along most road medians in Enugu. Hopefully, they are allowed to grow and transform the ambiance of that city.
We do need more trees and flowers planting campaigns in our key cities. It is often a crucial but ignored aspect of development

Lots of forests in Abia State between Umuahia and Bende and the boarder areas with Akwa Ibom

IBADAN- AERIAL VIEW

When did IITA @ picture # 4 become Ibadan neighbourhood? Please leave Oyibo property alone. Ole, onyeoshi.

menix:
This is cheating!!!!

How can 60 percent come frm South West...

No!!!!

Lagos is not no-man's land when it comes to ashawo

QuotaSystem:
I have deliberately refused to post Abuja for reasons best known to me.

But ask yourself:

Who are abuja indigenes? Northerners

Who built Abuja?



Who administers Abuja?

Who have been the FCT Ministers that developed Abuja?

Who constitutes the majority in Abuja?

shattap. Elrufai confirmed that 73% of Abuja is igbo-owned. Google is ur friend, use it

Ritchiee:
Still laughing at FKO81,I could not see anybody in the ilk of Prince Bola Ajibola the first Black African to head the United Nations Organisation...Biko Yoruba,help your Igbo brethren...don't worry we would do that but lazy people are not allowed in o...lol

Bola Ajibola was never the HEAD of UNO.

Ritchiee:
I have seen the list FKO81 posted.Lot of stories in it unlike the one I gave which are real achievements without long stories.
In entertainment,arts,musicians etc... Fela shits on all their flat heads. Yorubas have gotten 5 Grammy awards,Igbos have zero....All hail the Great Yoruba Nation.Lazy people should not aspire this o...lol

Can you mention the Yorubas with Grammy award and the link? Or are you mistaking Grammy nomination with Grammy award? I am waiting

SaiBuharii:
Proudly Ndigbo

Yoruba(Yoruba)and their ignorance. Ubi is not an Igbo name. It is Cross River; same area as Franklin Ubi. Yoruba should cure their ignorance.

Lol

Old news. We all know that SW is the natural home of human rituals and ritual-induced human kidnappings. Have you ever wondered what gbomogbomo means? This is something that was rampant in SW even before Igbos started wearing diapers. Before Igbos starting migrating to SW centuries ago, such barbaric acts were not found in Igboland. The early Igbo migrant returnees brought it into Igboland. Thank God it has gone back to it's owners: SW.

First class king is in the eyes of the beholder. What is first class in the op's village would be 5th class in Igbo land. The UK has a first class monarchical family, the US has none. How has that raised any issues? Stupid low life Op.

The op is a local village champion. In this 21st century, your Yoruba oba is MORlBUND and must eat human flesh. That is barbaric culture.

Adding state of origin makes this a mediocre resume. Who cares about your state of origin except you are talking about a govt job, for which in fact you really do not need a resume to land.

Plus, a glimpse at your Facebook page by an employer could spell your doom, even when a content was only shared, and not originally posted, by you. It is unwise to add a Facebook identification to a resume. Ever heard of LinkedIn? It's more professional

Axeurdaddy:
Lol. Its your brain and your mouth, you're free to say whatever, Even if its dumb

Where are the Victim's Kinswo/men in Nairaland? In limbo?

Idiataqueen:
Nigeria is not a country, i can still remember vividly it painful tho.Am tired of all dis fulani supremacy dat is why i dont pity them i only pitied d foreigners living in north, they all WISHED for dis bokoharam stuff when d food turn sour they started crying,i also pity jonathan too becos he is a victim.

Correct

ichoku:
We have been on this for so long only that we didn't see it coming in full force.

Well, this is not current news, just posted it because each time such heinous crimes occur Nigerians tend to get on with their lives as though nothing serious had happened. Were it to be in saner climes, the parliament would have passed a law in her name in memorial of her. The worst thing is that I read that those arrested in connection with this murder have all quietly been released. So in essence she died in vain while discharging her duties as a teacher.

It's been 11 years now; but did we remember to mourn this brave woman whose life was cut short by religious barbarian?


Nigerian Muslim students beat teacher to death

An angry mob of Muslim students in northern Nigeria beat their teacher to death on Wednesday for allegedly desecrating the Qur'an, police and witnesses said. Her attackers accused her of tearing a portion of the Qur'an she seized from a female student during an examination.



An angry mob of Muslim students in northern Nigeria beat their teacher to death on Wednesday for allegedly desecrating the Qur’an, police and witnesses said.

Oluwatoyin Olushekan was attacked and killed by the mob in Gandu Secondary School in Tudun Wada district, northern Gombe state.

Her attackers accused her of tearing a portion of the Qur’an she seized from a female student during an examination.

Bashir Dikko, Gombe state police spokesperson, said: “There was an incident today [Wednesday] at Gandu Secondary School in the metropolis in which a teacher was lynched by some students who also burnt her car and set three blocks of classrooms ablaze.

“The school principal, who is a Muslim, sustained minor injuries as he was also beaten by the students when he tried to shield the woman from her assailants.”

Police are still investigating the cause of the incident and have embarked on a 24-hour patrol, especially around the Tudun Wada area, the spokesperson said.

Dikko said eight people have been arrested over the killing and the state government has ordered the closure of all secondary schools in the metropolis to prevent the spread of the violence.

A neighbour of Olushekan, a nursing mother, described what happened.

“From what we learnt from the staff in the school, she was invigilating an examination on Islamic studies when she caught a female student engaged in a malpractice and seized the paper she was copying from and tore it,” Badamasi Aliyu said on the telephone from Gombe.

“A student who was standing by the window shouted ‘Allahu Akbar [God is great],’ telling other students that she had desecrated the Qur’an, and this led to the attack that caused her death. It was a cold-blooded murder,” Aliyu said.—Sapa-AFP
