Wickedtruths:
Obafemi Awolowo University has more traffic lights than the entire Southeast states combined.

Wickedtruths:
Ibadan is the 3rd largest city in Africa. Aba on the other hand has been designated as a latrine by the World Economic Forum. Living in Aba is a death sentence.

In Aba, they almost declared a public holiday because Chicken Republic opened a store there.

Broveens42:
Very big Slum with cocoa house feeding on crude oil

Lolz
I love the way you cry

You can actually do better
Bring it on
This particular joke is stale

mancoconut:
Don't you guys get tired of this petty and useless comparisons? no city in Nigeria is up to world class standard including Lagos which is massively overrated, na only Abuja even try... I wonder how Ghanaians, South Africans, Rwandans and other Africans who come from countries where cities/towns are far more modern and developed wound feel when they you guys disgrace yourselves with rubbish.

At the rate our Afonja coneheaded brothers are running and fleeing these days, I won't be surprised if one of two of the runners end up representing Nigeria in the next Olympics as our next Usain Bolt.

Ibadan had a TV station before France got one. The WNTV station was established before any TV station in France.

Cocoa was the mainstay of the economy at that time. When Awolowo was flying helicopters in the Western Region, Azikiwe was traveling by Bedford lorries. Obafemi Awolowo University was built by the Western Regional government in protest after Azikiwe made an Igbo man the VC of University of Ibadan. The school was built with 100% cocoa money.

Go to Carter Bridge and Eko Bridge in Lagos, you will see Igbos pushing wheelbarrow and picking pockets there. Both bridges were built with cocoa money.

As at when the West was doing great things with cocoa money, what were Igbos doing? Cocoa House, Obafemi Awolowo University, NTA Ibadan, Western House in Lagos, All the Industrial Estates in Ikeja, etc were built with cocoa money. Kindly show us a single thing Igbos built.

Wickedtruths:
Most of the houses with rusted roofing sheets were built early in the 1900s. They were a sign of wealth and when Nnamdi Azikiwe came to Ibadan, he was shocked at such level of wealth and development. That was why he wanted to use NCNC to takeover Ibadan politics.

As at when those in Ibadan were building these houses, Igbos were still living in trees and muddy toilets with thatched huts.

Poverty was so rampant in Igboland that when they imposed tax on Igbos, the women rioted because they were too poor to pay. That was the Aba Women Riot of 1929 where 51 women and 1 man died. Igbo men have been historically cowards. They are always running away.

You mean same Ibadan city that is almost equal to the whole 5 eastern states in size?

Wickedtruths:
We have the Benin empire, we have the Ife Kingdom, we have the oyo empire, we have the Kanem Borno empire.

Mention just one ancient civilisation built by your Igbo fathers.

Other people were building legacies and monuments, your fathers were in the village square, fighting for the hands of the village prostitute in marriage.

Nigercity:
Yet nsukka City landmass is bigger than that of Ibadan
Lolz

Oga you joke no funny

Prosperchuks1344:
They started it, didn't you see one useless afonja thread comparing their rotten Ibadan to Awka?

Wickedtruths:
I'm giving you hard facts, Igbos are allergic to orderliness.

Wickedtruths:
Look at this unfortunate akpu-eating machine.

NGpatriot:
Ibadan City center...

Nice pics bro

Let me help you

our Igbo ukwu artifacts predate ile ife. while our forefathers were carving and forging iron ore and solid minerals into beautiful sculptures your forefathers were still using sand and red mud to mold sculptures depicting your conehead heritage.

we had Nri kingdom and Arochukwu kingdom.

we had a local clothing line called akwete.

Oyo was never an empire but rather a puny kingdom headed by a chief priest beaten blue-black by dahomey female fighters.
