Buddha3: It's a major doubt as to whether you have owned or own a car presently. Cause if you do, you won't approximate a 40km distance to 1hour. Even if you're snail-driving at 80km/hr on a free express, you'll cover 40km in exactly 40minutes or infinitesimally less.
That alone considerably lays waste to whatever extra analysis you're trying to put up.
He said approximately 1 hour and you said 40 minutes. What is the difference?
And in your I too Know you didn'ttt evdn know your submission just validated the guys submission.
Tinubuadvocate: Then if that is the case you should have start capturing ilorin from airport road coming from lagos Also from offagarage you want to enter ilorin from kwara south. Anyway Aba is not a place someone can live .
The airport is not in the city centre but in the SW area. The city center is the area within the General post office.
Aba has better housing than Ilorin. In terms of serenity, I think Ilorin is better.
I wilk take Aba that saw war over Ilorin that didn't fight any civil war
Tinubuadvocate: Do you want to compare ilorin social life and road networks to that Aba. And moreover no GRa or okeoyi new Gra and flower garden in your picture. Also where Is herald?
I am posting mostly the central parts of thee towns. Aba is more beautiful than what you already see.
The Aba GRA lies along the road if you are entering the city from the express, that is why I added it.
I didn't add any estate
The purpose of my threads is to showoff the quality If residential houses in Aba, relative to other cities.
These houses are not estate but where a typical resident or citizen lives in.
If I want to show off where our super rich lives in, I'll be comparing Umuahia our state capital instead of Aba
jazon: Mehnnnnn I cannot believe what I'm seeing...... If this video is not edited, Aba is miles ahead.
The only problem with Abia state is Roads. As for buildings...... Them try. Notice no brown roofs, and you hardly see bungalows. Mind you, Aba is not a Capital city o! Them try.
midolian: where is the lie? That Abia is underdeveRoped? Even if it is more deveroped than the filthiest slum in the world, it doesn't change the fact that Abia is currently where it should not be.
Abia should be bigger than a kerosene depot
Aba is not yet there, no doubt.
This is a city that is still healing from a war performing at the same level with those that didn't. That is the message.
midolian: When you tell an Igbo man the truth about his evil ways, he is quick to point fingers at others in comparism. These people need to be studied as a curse course in school
walefresh3: Make I show u screen shot... So u go believe.... I thought u peoples have been telling us lies that no rustics roof in the east ? See rusticated roofs full everywhere... Below
You Yorubas are funny.
The second picture is Ibadan and you are tagging it as Igboland.
Even the Enugu image is an aerial drone shot of Osogbo.
walefresh3: Keepshot... It is only ibos that are lacking and lagging behind in all developmental index... No single infrastructure that worth just 2 billions dollars...in the whole ibo land
Aba Geometric Independent Power Project is worth $500 million.
The projects are fully indigenous, backed by Abia billionaires. We don't wait for government to do things for us.
Ariaria International Market has it's own independent power project, fully built by the traders and commissioned by Buhari.
Can you now name your $2 billion dollar infrastructure in Ibadan?
walefresh3: What prove do you have to dis your fake assertion ? Is it because of the mediocrity video the op posted above...can u comopare that with dis one below ... These are the most expensive residential areas 8n Nigeria . And all the estates in the video are built by the yoruba Realtors....
walefresh3: Same lies they spoon feed u in mud house in the east abi ? That ibos are the richest and yet no single nyamiri worth 1 billion dollars in history...
We Igbos don't insult, until insulted. I hope you will not cry we add insult to the wotowoto we are already dishing to you guys.
Nnewi has the largest concentration of billionaires per capita.
Main main market has more millionaires than any single concentration in SW.
Compare SE and SW gini coefficient and you will see we spread our wealth instead of concentratin them in the hands of few thieves
walefresh3: Stop telling lies here... Show us prove...it is prove that we want... We have better structures here... Best residential areas are located here in the southwest....stop decieving Nigerians.... No tangible development in the east.... Prove it here.... Let compare the houses here for people to see.....
Even your brothers know SE leads in better quality of housing.
VAT generation is not a pointer to economic development. It might be that the FIRS is not aggressive enough in SE states. It can be for any other reasons.
To be fair, these pictures from the SE region are admirable and one shocking thing about them is that these are just locations that the average person lives in. Not even a GRA.
This should be a wake up call to all SW dwellers, time to start electing sensible leaders,time to start investing in quality housing. I noticed that majority of South Westerners will rather export their capital abroad (outside Nigeria) or to Lagos which is very bad and has left the other SW states economically disadvantaged . Forget sentiments.
BKayy: What you said is fact that only those that have visited Yorubaland in real life will attest to.
A friend of mine decided to do the compulsory NYSC in Ogun State this year after much pressure. He visited last month and was complaining that for the first time in his life, he is seeing teenagers in Nigeria that can't speak English. He attested to the fact that seeing a woman of 40+ that understands "go and come" in Ogun state is rare.
My reaction to his complaints was "Wait until you visit Osun state"
These people are archaic
Even in Lagos here you'll be surprised to find out a lot of them struggle with English
walefresh3: But the same Southwest has more multinationals companies than southeast... Has bigger gdp... Pop... And igr than southeast region... Single infrastructure that worth 19 billions dollars.... Best schools , best hotel, best roads, best highrise building, highest numbers of sky croppers, best water way, best infrastructure, best real estate and higjestt number of proffesors with celebrities.... Oya debunk dis....
All these things yet South West leads in the number of vulnerable households in our national social register.
How can you be richer and still has more poor people?
horsepower102: I have said it before and I will say it until my death. Every Yoruba cities should be developed to Eastern European cities level.
They never experienced any war. War is devastating.
They were the most educated tribe for decades after the civil war.
They benefited from the indiginization policy passed immediately after the civil war.
They were in charge of the economy after the civil war while the north controlled politics.
They have uninterrupted access to the sea.
They travel outside of Nigeria just like Igbos which means that they should know what real development looks like.
The fact that yorubas settled for mediocrity for decades after the civil war shows that is a cultural issue. Lagos that they brag about is not of their own making. It was done with the contribution of everyone especially Igbos. If you doubt me, compare Lagos to port novo in Benin republic.
That's what I keep saying
Yorubas didn't see war, the run the Nigerian economy for more 15 years during and after the war, the had everything going for them, yet they still live in dilapitated houses
walefresh3: Bro I have a lots to post about your dipalated region ... Your region is the worse and most poorest in the south with low purchasing power... All nnewi audio billoniares can not make it a develop City... No single ibo man worth just 1 billion dollars in history except on Internet.... See your city below
