forgiveness:
Ibadan alone has more estates than any cities in Nigeria besides cities in Lagos and Abuja.

Keep fooling yourself.

BKayy:
Those ones na Cities?

Lol, Nigercity I've been to all those places and believe me apart from Offa in Kwara, they are what we call ancient villages in SE.

Or is it because of the new empty main road in Owo that it turned to a city?

Ndi mmadụ sef

forgiveness:
Ota is part of Lagos?

You don’t know anything.

Biafrarep:
For you to throw in Lagos as the only challenger to Owerri and Onitsha shows you already know they have no match in the SW

The Yoruba guy that opened this thread must be full of regrets now, he actually didn't bargain for this

I challenge you Yorubas to name any village from the SW that can remotely compare with any of these SE villages below and I will transfer 10k to your account.

1. Oguta (Imo State).
2. Abiriba (Abia State).
3. Udi (Enugu state).

Mind you I have videos and drone pictures of these Igbo villages and there are also more I will name from Anambra but let's start with these ones.

Sammy07:
Pls who knows Abiribaba or wetin u call am outside south east?
Okigwe? What the fvck is that

BKayy:
Exactly.
The only difference is that we call ours "Village" while they call theirs that is not up to our standard "cities"

Take for Example Obi Cubana's hometown Oba.
Obi Cubana going back there for the funeral was termed "Obi Cubana going to his VILLAGE to bury his mother" but mind youx that Oba has:

1.) One private University
2.) 6 Private hospitals with one Teaching Hospital
3.) 6 Estates and more under construction
4.) One tourist village (Rojenny) and Stadium
5.) Many production Companies (she even hosted the first Indigenous tooth pick manufacturing plant years ago)
6.) 3 Night Clubs and two currently under construction
7.) A shopping Mall (Nigerian standard)
8.) More than 10 hotels with a Four star Nellys Hotel and another under construction
9.) Their own Market and two (under construction, though used at the same time) business districts and One international Market "Alaba International Market Oba"

With all these, the people especially those from there and around still call Oba "a Village"
Its an Igbo thing but I pray one day we change that mentality.

Tell me, from what I listed, how many of the so called Cities in SW can boast of it but some of us still call Oba "a village"
cc Abagworo and Amotolongbo

This is about Oba. I haven't talked about Obosi, Ogidi, Nkpor etc that many still don't give their rightful respect

Amotolongbo:
I intentionally didn’t want to say you are blabbing like a 2year old boy when you said “you mentioned Ado Ekiti in Kano” as if Kano is a house.

Amotolongbo:
I am sorry I can’t engage you with this shallow analogy of yours.

Is Kano a house or street?
Or how will someone tell me he mentioned a town in Kano?
To who?

Amotolongbo:
You would say that you and your ilks don’t know. Stop generalising.

Amotolongbo:
This is undebatable.

Southwest is far more urbanised than the South East..

The question of urbanisation isn’t a claim of superiority of one zone over the other.
Ndigbo are known to be more attached to their villages.

Abia- Umuahia & Abba
Anambra - Awka, Nnewi & Onitsha
Ebonyi - Abakaliki & Afikpo
Enugu - Enugu & Nsukka
Imo- Oweri & Orlu

Ekiti - Ado Ekiti, Ikere Ekiti
Ogun- Abeokuta, Ijebu Ode, Ota
Ondo - Akure, Ondo, Owo
Osun- Osogbo, Ife, Ilesha
Oyo- Ibadan, Ogbomoso, Oyo,

Simdyofficial:
are you high? Ibadan vs Enugu? What's in enugu town? Name 10 good companies in enugu? I have lived in both cities..

BKayy:
Exactly.

This is about Oba. I haven't talked about Obosi, Ogidi, Nkpor,oguta, ohafia,nkanu (with 4 high institution), etc that many still don't give their rightful respect

BKayy:
There is no place in Abia State that has better road than anywhere in Anambra. Abịa state Government House inclusive
To be Frank with you, Aba is somewhere between Okpoko and Atani. And that is for now.

Lets start with Obosi. With time we can enter Nnewi. Did you say no dual road in Nnewi?

Mtcheww... You think Obosi is quarter.
Since you are so focused on Obosi, I think you need to know that Obosi is a full town with many villages (quarters).
I believe you are conversant with Mgbuka.. It is in Obosi.
One of her quarters is this Awada below

DashingRush:
Please don't engage that guy called Bkayy.

He is too ignorant and gets his information on social media.

I used to think Aba is one big hell hole until I visited in February. I was proud of what I saw.

We are not there yet, but we are doing bad either.


Aba roads are not even as worse as we have in some parts of Lagos.

No non-state capital besides Onitsha and Lagos is more developed than Aba.

BKayy:
You can continue fooling yourself. After all people like you believe that the entire Anambra State is "Onitsha"

List of 5 cities that are clearly better than Aba in Anambra minus the capital.
Onitsha
Obosi
Nkpor
Odekpe (Ogbaru)
Nnewi.

Please note that it is not about malice or anything but just reminding you how low Aba has fallen courtesy of the collective stupidity of the entire people in Abia state.

Imagine prioritising tribalism in Elections

udele1:
There is no fence here. You are either part of the problem or part of the solution.

You can't claim not to be a fan of kanu, then sit idle and watch him destroy igbo youths and igboland.

udele1:
If you were not a hypocrite, why do you and kanu attack Buhari personally for Nigeria's problems?

You clap when he claims he married aisha at 13 and calls him a pedophile.

You clap when he saya buhari is dead and shows you his ears.

You are the one that reasons like an illiterate here.

Why then did US go After Osama Bin laden? Was he the one that bombed the world trade center ?

OK. Noted.

HELLASJ:
Just finished mine last month, I must say it worth especially the experience, you got to be serious if you want to learn, if not nobody will take you seriously. Ask questions where necessary and don't do over Sabi.
Where I did mine I wasn't paid but I learnt alot that'll help me after graduation by His Grace!

PS
It depends on your course of study

Thanks

Thanks
Any changeling experience?

Best of luck

Be specific. Is it electrical, civil or chemical engineering?

I actually don't have any idea on the modus operandi of those mentioned companies, in relation to IT students.

Visit these companies and get first hand information. You can also reach them through their phone numbers and social media handles. I visited and submitted my (photocopied) forms to like 5 organizations before settling for one.

JOACHINpedro:
Omo if you dey eye that allawee, do any reg you're required to do both in school and SiWES office. If not you go cry the day your course mates go dey receive alert.
The experience was just like any other working environment, just the inquisition from you as an apprentice differs.
Good luck on your IT

Choice of organization for an IT program depends largely on your course of study, location and partly, the salary. The truth is, most organizations don't pay NYSC members, talk more of IT students. Some are even owning their staff so... . This is why government, through ITF (industrial Training Fund) have arranged some finances for students at the end of the program.

I'm a student of Agricultural Economics and Extension. After a lot of farm practices in school which majorly fall under the 'Agriculture' aspect of my course alone, I decided to go into administrative aspect of it this time, for the sake of the 'Economics and Extension'.

Being in a governmental organization for some weeks now, I realized that you need to be serious if you really want to learn. Unlike private organizations, nobody takes your unseriousness seriously here. But if you have a side hustle, good for you. You can skip days and make some money.

Personally, I am very punctual. I want to learn and ensure that my relevance is greatly felt.
