Education: Onitsha best aba
Commerce and trade: no comparison, onitsha beats aba hands down
Health; is no go area, onitsha remains on top
Industry; only ogbaru industrial park beats everything in Abia state not even aba

The only flyover in Aba was commissioned last year and is substandard compared to those in onitsha

There’s nothing in Abia state that will beats 10 lanes super highway in onitsha

And lastly there’s nothing in the whole Abia state that can beat obosi flyover/interchange

Look for your mate, onitsha isn’t your mate. Maybe abakaliki or umuahia

Onitsha is about the size of Osisioma local government.

Na small small companies dey onitsha. No world class industrial giant there aside sabmiller. You want to be comparing such a place with Aba that is home to Nigerian bottling company, guiness and Nigeria breweries?

Only Osisioma Aba is more industrialized than Onitsha but when it comes to commerce, I give to Onitsha.

Sometimes I laugh when you this Anambra people make comments from ignorance.

Aba has more paved roads than Onitsha, Akwa and Nnewi combined.

While the super highshit is nonsense, Aba has a 10 lanes road from Osisioma flyover to Ariaria junctions and then to Obehie.

Inner onitsha roads are not well paved and connected. You and I know this.

Aba has more factories than Akwa, Nnewi and Onitsha combined.

Aba produces more power than the whole of Anambra state.

Aba has more mega gas plants for power production than the whole of Anambra state.

Onitsha is only commerce and market

FOXDOSSIER:
It is even an insult to have this discussion with someone from Abia.

Abia is clearly the worst and most backward state in Nigeria, this is not in contention.

As for Aba, it is a more or less a cesspit of dilapidated dirty shithole. I hate to have debate with Abia because it is a total let down for any state at all to compete with Abia which is the worst state in Nigeria.

Onitsha is by far more infrastructurally more advanced, developed, organized and serene than the dirty shithole Abia that’s full of the worst roads in Nigeria, despite the fact that Okezie tried but Aba is still the worst space in Africa.

Onitsha is not just far better planned than Aba, Onitsha is the best planned city in igboland and among the best planned in Nigeria. Onitsha was planned and set out by the British settlers in the city. Onitsha is not on the same pedestal with a slum like Aba. It is an insult to make this debate but I will make to humble you so you know your superior.

Onitsha has some of the best inner roads and streets network in Nigeria. Aba is a shithole and doesn’t stand a chance.

Aside the major highways in Onitsha, the city boasts of best planned neighborhoods in igboland. Most imo indigenes prefer to live in Onitsha because it is a far better city than your dirty Aba that’s full of filth.

Aside the Ph-Enugu express the whole of Aba is dilapidated and unliveable. Aba should be demolished and rebuilt from scratch.

Aba doesn’t have the kind of sophistication infrastructures in Onitsha. I can’t count how many flyovers, interchanges, bridges in Onitsha. The same dirty Aba that just got its first substandard flyover yesterday?

Infrastructures, healthcare, commerce, industry, education, etc, Onitsha is by far compare to Aba. Onitsha is at least 100yrs ahead of Aba in development. Stop comparing apple and orange.

Nnewi is the closest in competition to Aba, Onitsha is like America compare to Aba. We can open a new thread to make this debate with pictures if you want .

Lest, I forgot, Anambra is the most developed state in igboland

By landmass, Aba city is about the same size city of Onitsha, Awka and Nnewi cities combined (not metropolis) .

Osisioma local government alone in Aba, is about the size of Awka.

Aba alone houses power plants than the entire Anambra state. And I'm bit even joking.

Aba has more paved roads than Onitsha, Akwa nd Nnewi combine and I'm not even making the shit up.

Facts are there. So what infrastructure are you guys talking about?

what are the infrastructure in Onitsha?
Where are the industries and inner planned roads?

What do you guys call infrastructure?

Aba by landmass in even larger than Onitsha and Nnewi combined.
Aba has more paved roads than Nnewi and Onitsha combined and this is fact.
Aba has more factories than Nnewi and onitsha combined.

Aba alone is more power plants than the whole of Anambra state.

Aba alone is about the size of Onitsha (minus ogidi), Akwa and Nnewi towns combined.

What are you talking about? Lol

FourQu:
Eiyah! All the ewedu gobblers are trying their best to troll igbos with the same brown roofs that their hometown are Notorious for

The pain of ebi pawa not affecting the igbos is driving them stark raving mad . . .

And we love it 😀

I'm Igbo

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.

Yes, this is also true

Jcoleworld911:
First, otti isn’t the brain behind geometric power plant in Aba, also Anambra will soon have theirs too

Secondly, onitsha is both economically/infrastructural developed than aba and also Soludo had invested more in onitsha than what otti is doing in Aba, we are on ground, I can tell you this

Thirdly, Amazon or not, onitsha is and will still be the biggest market in west Africa couple with lots of industries springing everyday

Fourthly, Soludo is the best performing governor in Nigeria as of now, no one comes close. You need to start watching YouTubers from Anambra to understand this eg Anambra diaries, tv, Godwin$blessing etc.

Thanks

on what ground is onitsha more infrastructurally developed than Aba?
By roads, electricity, education, industrial, health or what?

The only thing I will agree that onitsha has more than Aba is commerce nd transportation, others I will doubt it. As a matter of fact, Most major cities in Southeast are infrastructurally ahead of Onitsha. Infrastructure is not about building 5 and 4 deckings everywhere.


Because if you remove Onitsha/Enugu expressway and onitsha/Owerri expressway, Onitsha cannot boast of any other major road infrastructure. The remaining roads are either singles lanes or track roads. You cannot compare the inner road network in Aba to Onitsha, Aba is far ahead.
You cannot compare industrialization in Aba to Onitsha, Aba is far ahead. Aba is better planned.
Aba has more educational and health institutions than Onitsha. So on what grounds is Onitsha infrastructurally ahead?



I want you to educate me

Abakpa a slum?

Tell another joke bro

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.

AsomughaChuks05:
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.

I disagree.
Achara layout, maryland, Trans Ekulu and GRA are planned

Abakpa is the most Populated area in Enugu city but the least developed.

Yes, a presumed corrupt government can indeed scare investors. Investors generally seek stability, predictability, and transparency in the political and regulatory environment of the countries where they invest. A government perceived as corrupt can introduce uncertainty and risk into the investment climate for several reasons:

1. **Lack of Trust**: Corruption erodes trust in government institutions and the rule of law. Investors may be concerned about unfair treatment, bribery, and other corrupt practices that could affect their investments.

2. **Risk of Regulatory Instability**: Corrupt governments may implement arbitrary regulations or change policies to benefit specific individuals or groups, rather than serving the broader interests of the economy. This unpredictability can deter investors who rely on consistent regulatory frameworks to make investment decisions.

3. **Potential for Unfair Competition**: In environments where corruption is prevalent, businesses that engage in corrupt practices may gain unfair advantages over competitors who adhere to ethical standards. This can create a skewed playing field that discourages foreign and domestic investment alike.

4. **Impact on Economic Growth**: Corruption can hinder economic growth by diverting resources away from productive investments and infrastructure development. Investors may be wary of investing in countries where corruption is rampant due to concerns about the long-term sustainability of economic growth.

5. **Reputational Risk**: Investing in a country with a corrupt government can also pose reputational risks for companies and investors. They may face scrutiny from stakeholders, including customers, shareholders, and regulatory bodies, which can damage their brand image and financial standing.

Overall, a presumed corrupt government undermines investor confidence and can deter both foreign and domestic investment, leading to adverse effects on economic development and prosperity. As a result, addressing corruption and promoting transparency and accountability in governance are crucial for fostering a favorable investment climate.

Tinubu who has a glaring notorious history of corruption, irrespective of how many of you try to cover it cannot attract any substantial level of investors. Investors are not fool, most of them are well experienced enough to see through your gimmicks.

yommen:
You have been voting right within your SE, has it developed more than other parts of Nigeria? The day you Igbos begin to look inward more is the day you begin to have answers to your problems.

Considering where SE was after the war and he marginalization, we cannot say that the pace is not faster than other regions. Without federal government, yorubas cannot build anything for themselves

Brenbentondiaz:
Yeah. The Yorubas are tribalistic because a Yoruba candidate won 4 of 6 states in Yorubaland, while the other major candidates won basically more than 30% in all those Yoruba states. The ibbos, however are not tribalistic. They're nationalistic for having the ibbo candidate win ALL the 5 states in ibboland, where the other 2 candidates could hardly muster up to 20% of the votes combined in each state. I know due to the classic ibbo lack of selfawareness, you people don't realise how stvpid you usually sound with this crap you guys always push.

I have told you the truth.
It's left for you to understand the op

Okoroawusa:
Mmm? You say what?

How old are you?

Tell me any Igbo person that has ever won thr west. I'm waiting

PureFace1:
Shut up lol

I guess GEJ that majority of Yoruba voted for during his first term was a Yoruba man too.

If it was really about competence, Peter Obi the agulu fraud wouldn't secure 95% of south east votes, Ngige performed better than him in Anambra in all sectors but sure let's pretend it is not about Igbo being so desperate to produce a president.

When GEJ, if there were a prominent Yoruba contesting, you would have voted Yoruba agenda.
When Tinubu asked you to ditch GEJ for Buhari, you did.

All these still points to the OP. Almost everytime, Yorubas will vote wrongly

PureFace1:
Imagine this retard that majority of his generation voted his tribal man accusing Yoruba of tribalism.

You guys are pushing your propaganda too far, Tinubu only secured 65% of south west votes with many Yoruba voting for Peter obi while Peter Obi got 95% of East votes.
How did Peter Obi secured 95% of East votes if you didn't see him as emperor ? but it is Tinubu that barely got 65% of SW votes that his people see as the emperor he even lost Osun and Lagos state.

You clearly don't know what you are saying, Tinubu would have trashed Obi with at least 10 million votes if South west see him as you portrayed and there's no way he would have lost Lagos and Osun state.

You are just projecting what you are on others, you are the real tribalists. It's not guaranteed that Peter Obi would even be able to perform better than Tinubu if he was the one there, naira might be over 3k by now if it was Obi in charge.

I will see your wailing if somehow Tomorrow Tinubu policies started yielding fruit and the economy change. Hope all you delusional folks will eat your vomit.

Yorubas always vote Yoruba agenda. There's never been a time you see the results coming out of the west to be majority about competence. It's always an agenda type of voting.

It's the truth. Couple of Yorubas had won election in the east, no Igbo person has ever won the west. Guess who's voting along tribal lines

paxx:
genius analysis btw. what do you think the solution is? R u on whatsapppp

The solution I think is a more decentralized system where we do not have to meet often at the center to show our differences.

VeeVeeMyLuv:
How can an individual whose loyalty and allegiance is absolutely to the tribe move this cultural diverse country forward?

What this country needs is a detribalised individual.

It's difficult to achieve that because every major tribe has diverse cultural behaviors, hence they will always disagree when they meet at the center.

The best way we can coexist is to further decentralize the country via regional government.

killsmith:
Herd mentality

Yeah, this is just the genesis of the whole problem.

A Tinubu supporter from the west does not see Tinubu as the solution to Nigeria's problems, he sees Tinubu as a person that projects the cultural heritage of the Yorubas. A demigod

immortalcrown:
Let them continue.

it's going to be very hard to remove that cultural instinct of having to depend on a "leader" that projects their cultural agenda rather than someone that solves their economical problems. It's a way of thinking that has been pass down to them.

It does make sense that people who have been accustomed to a certain type of system might be more likely to support leaders who reflect those values, even if they are not good for them. There's a concept called "path dependence" that refers to how the choices we make in the present are shaped by the choices we made in the past. So, in a country that has recently transitioned from monarchy to democracy, it's possible that the effects of that historical system are still present in the culture and may influence people's political decisions.

Yorubas and Hausa had organized monarchical systems where they paid homage to a single strong leader called Oba or Emir, this influences their political choices as well. They always see a reason to depend on someone who takes the position of what the Obas and Emirs were in this current dispensation, irrespective of whether the person is capable or not. They always want to be led and to have someone they can call their leader. So it does not matter if the person is competent, they will follow him. It's in tune with their culture
This mentality is more pronounced with the hausas than with the Yorubas because the Yorubas re more liberal and has accepted western education more, however this cultural trait is still there in both tribes.

So Yorubas and Hausas are more likely to obey a leader who can enforce himself and create the image of protecting their cultural heritage than someone from the east or southsouth. It's in their culture to worship humans like demigods.
It's the way many Yorubas perceive Tinubu, Awolowo and Abiola and how most northerners perceive Buhari.

It's hard for someone to attain the status of a demigod in the east even Ojukwu who led the Biafran war did not win any state during elections in the east. Peter Obi is getting popular because of his competence and how he sold himself (most Tinubu supporters will argue this).

There are other tribes here, but Yoruba and igbos seem to fight each other.
Some tribes from Kwara, Kogi, hausas and SS(especially ijaws and Itshekiri) join the Yorubas to attack igbos. While many tribes from Benue, Taraba, Edo, Akwa Ibom, crossriver prefer to stay neutral.

So it's a battle between those attacking igbos and igbos defending themselves.

Why is 99% of IPOBidients full of criticism?

They now found their voice on NL bcs Seun is protecting them like a vulnerable species


Keep enjoying the immunity of NL.

Otherwise we would have kept you in the bin where you belong to.

Shut up, there's no immunity on Twitter and we still talk.
Useless person wey dey vote rubbish

Kokorokoedo9:
Problem

Lol, how do you expect someone who only wants to steal money to solve your problems

I feel like praying to God to fix Nigeria is a total waste of time. God has already done the miracle by giving you a brain, it's not going to be his fault if you cannot use it to select or elect good leaders.

There are uncountable number of planets in the universe, God will care less about some set of black people on earth who won't use their brains.
Whether or not you use your brain to elect or select good leaders, it is not very inconsequential in the scope of things, so your destiny is in your hands.

God has some other serious issues to attend to like building new galaxies, blackholes or supernova. He already solved your problem by giving you a brain which you are not using.

It's usually funny to me when some of these pastors think that they can persuade God to help them fix a problem they could fix by themselves if they used their Brains. I think God might even be thinking that we are very unserious set of people because how come he gave everyone on eart same brain and you are not using yours to solve your problems?

ibrutex:
What I expect from everyone now is to proffer solutions whichever way we can think of , regardless of where you belong whether Obidati , Batified, Aticulate etc ..coz it's obvious the govts is confusion is confused.....

Lol, we should proffer solution to someone who rigged an election. He should leave there if he cannot do the job.
We cannot proffer solution to someone who will Lester ruin everything

Did he tell you any of his plans when 1he was campaigning?
He didn't say he had solution to anything

Here we have it

azikiweironsi:
Because I didn't vote for your favourite.
That alone makes you more foolish

no because you voted foolishly which is very obvious

Enugurangers:
In The North. South is the South, they care less if it's SE SS or SW. Heck, they hate SE the most. You can even see how they deliberately singled out SE from the South as if the SE is not part of the South.

This is not true.
