South South is better than South West in all ramifications


I hope you are happy now grin grin
Ss is home to the most corrupt governors and politicians but the people there would be looking for north and south west that is stealing their oyel money
Ask bayelsa and delta state what they have been doing with the 13% derivation they have been receiving

Here is the latest data on bank account ownership in Nigeria. Again, the SS is ahead of SW.

Delta, Edo and Rivers are above all SW states.

Being able to own a bank account is a function of education, economic development and enlightenment.

Comparing SS with SW is an insult to the Niger deltan people..

Remove Lagos from south west and the remaining 5 states are all shithole..

I laugh when I hear some certain people bragging that SW is the most developed region..

Left for me we should allow them to continue wallowing in their delusion and ignorant while others progress..

They have been programmed by their leaders to believe that they are the best..
My brother, big insult. How can somebody compare Akwa Ibom to Osun or Ogun state?

Ekiti, Osun, Ogun and Ondo don't even have standard airports sef.

Nobody is attempting anything
I think you have forgotten the recent elections where thugs were attacking "igbo" people
Do you know how many SS and middle belt people were attacked?
Smh
Re: No State In SW Is As Developed As Rivers, Delta Or Akwa Ibom by SSFeedsNigeria(op): 5:07pm On Apr 25, 2023
In educational enrollment, SS is also ahead of SW. I will soon upload the data.

I don't know why Yorubas like dwelling in fantasy. They believe their own lies and refuse to travel out. Their region has remained stagnated or even retrogressing when you consider the gains they made during Awolowo era and prior.

I deserve praises for creating awareness about this deplorable condition but I guess they prefer their delusions of grandeur.

South west have had the worst leaders so far but they are very comfortable with them,they are shamelessly bashing Igbos who have had fairly useless governors..

The difference between Igbo an Yorubas is igbos hold their leaders accountable while Yorubas are very comfortable with bad government.

Why are now putting eyes in SS wealth. If they give SW governors the money from Delta they will not still do anything.

BTW move out of SW and see what other states are doing. Just look at the government hospital in Edo state, no SW state can even come close. I was shocked when I entered inside.

Op see the way you belittle Lagos development because it was once a federal capital but you can't see that those South south state are oil producing state you removed edo, cross rivers and beyelsa but included all south west and remove Lagos


If you want it fair compare Lagos, oyo and ogun with those three South south state

Ogun state still does not have a functioning airport. Edo state allocation is still bigger than Oyo state allocation. Edo state currently has one of the best government hospital, next to Bayelsa, U will never find such in SW.

Hello, are you educated at all?

Didn't you read my last paragraph where I gave you my reason?

Abeg carry your obsession with SE to them, it's non of my business. I really find it pathetic how you guys keep bringing SE to this discussion. Argue based on facts and stop running away shouting ibos grin grin
But almost all the Yoruba guys on this thread have agreed with you that SS is better than SW. grin

So why the thing come still dey pain you if you are truly from SS? grin

If anybody tells you that Bayelsa in any point of our nationhood was or is among the states with the highest poverty rate and you believe it, then you are the most gullible person on planet earth.

Lower your voice comrade, I have been laughing so hard at their pathetic attempts at reducing the thread into another round bigotry.

I can't even wrap my hands on why they keep shouting ibos in this thread instead of arguing based on its merit. Is it they're scared of confronting SS or they're trying to be condescending.

Whichever one, it's really pathetic.
Ok. Yorubas are scared of confronting SS.

So are you ok now?

🤣🤣😭 You Yorubas are not just low in self esteem you are also very uncivilized. Because your tribe is so low on the intellectual scale you assume we in the Niger Delta are like you.

Who are you to tell him or her what we in the Niger Delta feel about your tribe?

Do you assume that everyone who questions the idiocy of your Yoruba are Ibo? So ibo are the only tribe brave enough to stand up to your evil in Nigeria?

You assume everyone who questions the devilish behaviour of Yoruba must be Ibo? 🤣🤣

The day northerners and we South southerners will openly show igbos love is the day some yorubas will scare to death and piss in their pants.

Lagos vs Rivers------- Lagos state is more developed. Lagos state has many developed cities like Lagos city, Ikeja, Lekki, Eko Atlantic, Ikorodu, Epe, Badagry etc unlike Rivers with just Port Harcourt, Bonny and Eleme. More better cities are in Lagos than Rivers if we do the rating

Rating: Lagos state vs River state cities
1. Lagos city
2. Ikeja
3. Lekki
4. Port Harcourt
5. Ojo
6. Ikorodu
7. Epe
8. Badagry
9. Eko Atlantic
10. Bonny

Akwa Ibom vs Osun state------- Osun state as as a whole is more developed than Awka Ibom in terms of infrastructures. Apart from Uyo that's a little bit better than Oshogbo in terms of transportation infrastructures other cities like Ikot Ekpene, Eket, Ibeno, Oron are not better than Ilesha, Ede, Ife, Iwo, Ejigbo etc. I have been to Uyo, Ikot Ekpene and Essien Udim. No doubt the first two are in the top 3 cities in Akwa Ibom and are very nice but Osun state has more cities in the top 10 than Akwa Ibom if we do the rating of both cities.

Rating: Akwa Ibom vs Osun State cities
1. Uyo,
2. Oshogbo
3. Ilesa
4. Ife
5. Eket
6. Ikot Ekpene
7. Ede
8. Iwo

3. Oyo state vs Edo

Ibadan is far more developed than Edo in all ramifications. Moreover, Oyo state has more developed towns than Edo state.

Rating; Oyo vs Edo cities
1. Ibadan
2. Benin
3. Ogbomosho
4. Oyo
5. Ekpoma

4. Ogun state vs Delta state

Delta state is the most developed state in South South because there are many developed cities apart from Warri and Asaba. Notwithstanding, it's still not as developed as Ogun state. Ogun state has more developed cities, more infrastructures, educational institutions and industries than Delta state.

Rating: Delta vs Ogun state cities

1. Abeokuta
2. Warri
3. Asaba
4. Arepo
5. Sagamu
6. Mowe/Ibafo (Redemption camp)
7. Sango ota
8. Ijebu Ode
9. Agbara
10. Sapele

Though Delta still has Agbor and Ughelli but Ogun state still has more like Ilaro, Igbesa, Iperu, Ikenne, Ilishan, Owode, Ijebu Igbo, Odogbolu etc.

Ogun state state is far more developed than Delta state.


5. Cross River state vs Ondo state c

Apart from Calabar that's more developed than any city in Ondo state, Ondo state holistically is far more developed.

Rating: Cross River vs Ondo State cities

1. Calabar
2. Akure
3. Ondo
4. Owo
5. Akoko
6. Ore
7. Obudu

The gap too much abeg.



6. Bayelsa state vs Ekiti state

Nothing dey Yenagoa. Ekiti town is far better but Bayelsa is more developed.

Rating: Balyesa vs Ekiti state cities

1. Brass
2 Ekiti
3. Yenagoa

As you can see, SW is more developed than SS
