gbanikiti: I think you need to grow up. Because you are free to social media doesn't mean you should use vulgar and abusive words. Why will you say am deluded? If you don't have anything to write then don't comment. Its my thread and not yours.

But, please, respect Ibadan.

Again, I'm sorry

eighTHREAD: I think we yorubas need to stop reply this thread cos the OP is obviously silly. Don't mention me again.

He's deluded!

gbanikiti: You are the silly one here. University college of ibadan can't be a federal university before independence. Everything federal started 1960. UNN was founded in oct 1st 1960. In 1963 UI got its new name and was made a federal university.

I need to open a new thread for this to make it straight.

Ignorance.............blatantly celebrated

jibsai: Well ...all the above is a baseless talk, if you wanna argue city/town I believe u should spend time to observe, u can't say "so I was ibadan" and think you are making any sensible point. In south korea(anywhere with 150k population becomes a city google that.) In the UK (a small place could be a city by right or special grant e.g lister city or hull city, u can't compare it to london or manchester..london city refers to the commercial hub of london alone and not the whole greater london which means london city is a borough council with a mayor and greater london has Lord mayor mind u dats how LG are broken down in the UK) Greater london is a county and london city, fulham, westminster with about 20+ borough council are LG within london nd they work as a cooperation google that too))) now u don't know ibadan so, lemme start ma counter argument
1. Ibadan has more than 2 institutions, I hear of some myself I don't kno all... Few of them are the premier Nigerian versity Ui, Poly ib, leadcity university (Now these ones am gonna list research them and see what they do, u might need it later--->IITA, Niser, institute of agric more plantation, CRIN (cocoa reseash inst of nigeria) school of nursing eleyele, UCH has several colleges awarding various medical/health certificates including nursing, medical biology, chemistry etc nigerian school of jornalism, institute of mathematics and statistics...Ibadan is regarded as the educational capital of Nigeria just like lagos is commercial/financial capital...u displayed your ignorance by not knowing this bro, every informed person know ibadan is home to top schools and hundreds of reseaching centres
Now what do u mean by Mini zoo? UI is one of the very few higher schools in nigeria with a standard and functioning zoological garden (I challenge you to mention others if u know?) There is another zoo inside Agodi gardens so which one are u calling mini most def not UI's and am sure u didn't enter agodi garden so which ZOO are u talking about?

*Landmass of ibadan metropolitan area is largest in nigeria, you are the only one that wanna dispute dat not even kano or kaduna learned peeps will argue. Lagos can't fight us, cos they gat too much water am sure u can check an atlas map to verify. Ibadan is situated inland so we gat land plenty.
What is mini in a museum u def don't know what you are talkin about so I'll let dat pass. Now the fact is "ibadan city" is only 5LGAs of ibadan metropolitan area. An area that start just after fiditi town in Afijio LGA in Oyo zone of Oyo state. Akinyele LGs(northern most part of ibadan) covers over a thousand villages and settlements and has its boundry to ibadan north LGA at Orogun junction just near UI's 2nd gate. The largest LGA in the metropolitan area is Iddo(iddo is the largest town here) just after ibarapa axis of oyo state covering hundreds of towns and settlement including omi adio, apata gaga, kuola all the way to Eleyele/ologun eru area closing boundry with ibadan north and ibadan south west. If u read the below carefully then you might understad that ibadan has gone beyond just a city, it is an international mega city, a city state and a traditional state. An Historical settlement of highest order

What we refer to as "ibadan city" is the 5LGAs dat make up d Metropolitan area.

1. Ibadan north IBNLG--->Areas of Bodija( old bodija, New bodija, University of ibadan, Samonda estate (u can't even buy land here if ur not holding at least 35m cool cash ask around), Mokola axis very big area because there we have mokola hills and downBelow (on the hill, we have the famous Premier hotel am sure u didn't get there!, festac town where we have d cultural centre, the proposed site of ibadan hilton hotel, dandaru dam, down d hill is mokola roundabout and the new mokola overHead bridge, ibnLG is home to sango, Oke-itunu and the great Poly ibadan.

2.

Massive populations in all these places bro)

3.Ibadan North West IBNW: (The area links part of old ibadan city ((where you people that are ignorant of our city call dusty/muddy)) to d commercial/financial hub of ibadan.

There is Sabo wigatap estate its owned by LG its a bulk of 2 and 3bedroom flats all in 3_4 storey rumours has it dat u will need to pay heavy for it. Then, Adamasigba is d border mokola which is in IBN. Adamasigba is famous for lekan salami ssport complex, home of 3sc team. Also @ IbNw Jericho where we have d popular magazine road dat houses many leading publishing firms, jericho nursing home, Dstv sw Office is also here.

4. Ibadan south east IBSELG(This is the core old city area like Mapo u must have heard of famous Mapo Hall ofcos everybody knows it, Oja'ba where olubadan's palace is located, kudeti where we have the first church in ibadan an anglican church, Yejide, Elekuro where we have d prestigeous Wesley college, sanyo, soka(u heard of soka saga), ode aje, Molete, the palacial residence of late lamidi Adedibu is here the molete overhead bridge is d boundry that leads U into Newer, Fresher Ibadan (I.e Ibadan south west.) SE is densely populated and that's where u find majority of old buildings and brown roofs

5. Ibadan South West IBSW: (This is one of the most choiced area, its the area for the big men am not sure u got here during your visit OP? You can never explore only this LGA in a year. This is where we have Bola ige international market aleshinloye, Alalubosa GRA wow! Bro if u have 40-50m u can get a land there too, we have the famous Ring Road lenting about 10-15km and on the road you will find thousands of modern sophisticated buildings public and private..Examples?

On the left inward you have the famous oni and sons, Ajeigbe and joiceB residential areas its made up of houses for middle class family or persons and many top guys too, mostly bulk of flats, 3storey room apartments...so u can say the left of ringroad inward is for middle class and right inward for big boys...also at IBsw we have the famous oke-bola where we have st james cathedral, the great ibadan boys high school Baptist building etc, @oke-bola-dugbe road is the boundry btw IBNW and IBSW oke-ado where we have the famous and first standard nigerian stadium liberty stadium, prestigous jogor centre is here, ibsw is home to Nigeria tobacco company thats why we have NTC road, near it is Olubadan stadium 2 stadia in one LGA lol, ibsw is home to the fabulous Kakanfo inn @joiceB off ringroad, ibsw is home splash fm. 105.5 most listened radio in Southwest nigeria @felele this area is massive and thousands of peeps live here.

This is Ibadan city if you can cover these 5LGAs the remaining 6 LGAs that surround the city are metropolitan areas...
NB a place with a population of over 3million people is a city no matter what your argument can be...Ibadan has history, landmass, massive population, Technology, mobility, great educational culture, nature and ofcos we gat sweggggg..Whatelse shall we call ibadan If not a city

By the way, thank you jare

He is just deceiving himself.

Clown!

I think they call this "medicine after death"?


Ajimobi is not coming back. FACT!

Youssou N'dour is number 1 in Africa.

Youssou N'Dour is a Senegalese singer, percussionist, songwriter, composer, occasional actor, businessman and a politician. In 2004, Rolling Stone described him as, "perhaps the most famous singer alive" in Senegal and much of Africa.

- Wiki

N'Dour's first international album releases on Virgin, The Lion (1989), produced by George Acogny and containing the N'Dour-Gabriel composed single "Shaking The Tree"; and Set (1990), produced by Brian Eno-compadre Michael Brook, prompted Brian Cullman to write in Rolling Stone:

"If any third world performer has a real shot at the sort of universal popularity last enjoyed by Bob Marley, it's Youssou, a singer with a voice so extraordinary that the history of Africa seems locked inside it."
