Ibadan should be more than this. From your screenshots, you left out Odo Ona, Alomaja Adebayo, and Idi Ayunre. Those are part of Oluyole LG and they fall in Ibadan.

Either way, you did a nice job even tho normal source put Ibadan at 3080 sq km.

No Lagos City, you can you go through what the OP shared. Are you allergic to reading?

Only Lagos and Kano are bigger than Ibadan city.

it's not by state, its by city.
Did you fail comprehension in school?

According to Google Maps, Kano is smaller than Lagos, Ibadan and Kaduna.

It's by urban area settlement of the city and not by the total local government in it.

Lol, that's why you should not argue with my submission, the city of Ibadan alone is almost the size of entire Lagos

But actual data says otherwise.

The data from Google says Lagos City is larger than Ibadan city. It's not hard to leave lies you have grown up with.

Sometimes I wonder if education Nigeria is a waste, someone is seeing what Google actually extrapolated and he's still stuck to his long beliefs and lies
