Benin should be worse after lokoja and markurdi
That is a lie na, don't you have sense? Where osogbo, akure, ado ekiti, yenogoa, umuahia, awka, abakiliki and other dead cities in the north and east, omo you nor get sense. Benin is one of the dominandi in Nigeria economically, it is among first four

It may have degenerated now, but i watched a YouTube clip of Calabar about 8 months ago, and i was really impressed with how clean it was with well maintained greenery!
.

Yeah, the City was rehabilitated that way by the then workaholic Governor, His Excellency, Mr. Donald John Duke. He tried to modernize Calabar to give it a face lift for a befitting State Capital of Cross River State, while maintaining some of it ancient ambience.
The city was first discovered by the Portuguese Slave merchants who sailed to shores & called it Cala Berra, before the British took over, then the arrival of Scottish Missionaries who brought Presbyterian Church &Western Education.
The Slave Trade Harbour &Point-of-no-Return still exist till today but has been renamed Marina Resort by Mr. Donald Duke. It's a place you can hangout with friends & have the view of Calabar River.

I wonder why a sane person will mention Uyo as one of the best capitals in Nigeria
Apart from good roads, what do they have
Nobody should mention Owerri again because it should be tagged the hotel capital of Nigeria

Akwa Ibom produce more oil than Rivers
.

I am from Akwa Ibom State but we are not discussing who ranks high in oil production.
Besides Port Harcourt & Rivers State have been in existence before the creation of Akwa Ibom State in 1987 &Uyo becoming the State Capital in the process.

Economic wise, Benin is great but in terms of sight, Benin is an eye sore.

You don't get. Nobody is saying portharcourt is not a city, but it has never been traditionally called Portharcourt city.

Just search "what is the capital City of River State on google and see if anything like city will be added to it. Now do the same for Edo State and see

You don start. undecided

Going by the way they hype Peter Obi here, you'd have expected Awka to be paradise as he was governor for 8 good years but it's all empty noise unfortunately.

Person wey get sense no go type this thing.

Akwa is young, but currently it has better buildings and infrastructure than even almighty Ibadan. It take more than 8 years for cities to be very developed. Obi set in the right motion, now Awka is growing rapidly.

Onitsha is more developed than Awka and that is because it has been developing before Awka. Awka is just 30 years old. Wait fex make e reach atleast 50 before you compare am with state wey don dey exist since the last 70/50 years

Who is chino? Please prove me wrong. Owerri is a mess. This is the present condition of Owerri. Prove me wrong by posting exact same place. People mentioned Owerri out of ignorance because they haven't been there before, so i needed to show them Owerri so they can make the right judgement

Re: Which States Have The Best Capital Cities In Nigeria? by nesphil(m): 11:15pm On Sep 16, 2022
You are talking out of bitterness and sheer ignorance.
What do you know about Uyo
Uyo has everything and the modern infrastructure of a modern city in Nigeria.
if you say that Uyo has only good roads, then you must be spewing trash out of ill-will or hate.
For your info, Uyo is one of the few most visited state capitals in Nigeria today.
