They sold and leased all the family houses at the main road
For others to build shops and mall
D real backwardness

Sonfethopia:
Which one is throw back and which one is throw front. This is the reality of Nigeria, not just ibadan.

And most of them dragging Lagos ... Live here

spagettiluv:
i can give you more from Enugu if you still want

give me the one from Lagos

PHIPEX:
Stop regurgitating lies. Is Lagos not people's ancestral homes. Ancient cities like Rome, Athen and Jerusale. Should be living in muds.

Seek for progress and stop defending poverty

Stop reasoning like a toddler, from time past Lagos POV as always being Urban/ mega city while ibadan enjoys being inferred as anciety city. besides lagos is a state while ibadan is just a city, mo-run!
Ibadan as an ancient city is more sellable to tourist than a modern ibadan ..borrow sense


Oyo state which host ibadan as capital, IGR is greater than 30 states in Nigeria or you wanna define "progress"

BadBradley:
give me the one from Lagos

Lagos have makoko

spagettiluv:
Lagos have makoko

I know. Makoko does not represent Lagos .

Besides in 1970 , there were no inhabitants in makoko which is what this article is about: structures existing in 1970 to present day .

none of them is dragging Lagos,I haven’t come across one,they are always proud of wherever they come from,that beree area is just like makoko of Lagos,it’s a small neighborhood,in fact,it is now a market for foodstuffs,those houses now serves as a warehouse for market men and women,you can visit.
You will only be sTUP1d if you think that’s how the whole of IB looks like .
For bolded,they live in good areas with beautiful structures,they live better than you

Overcrowded and stagnated development-wise. Gba fu mi lekun people will not kill me. ROFLMAO. Kunle, Ponle and Funmi will be here attacking my opinions while riding keke napep around Ibadan, Sango Ota, Oshogbo and Orile.

Mumu. Asif your people are any better than us. Many of ur people are also in the streets of osogbo,ibadan,orile pushing wheelbarrows everywhere. Ode

I don't know what year exactly we switched from RHD to LHD

Nice2023:
There is no yoruba man that I know,that is proud of his village.

Apart from the elites among them,no-one.

Whenever they leave their villages to Lagos,it is finished. No going back.

I don't know if they are scared of their village.

I don't come from a village so I don't know this foolish idea that some of us come from villages, the number of Yoruba people that come from settlements that have not progressed into towns is not as you'd imagine.

Unto your posts, you must not have meet people from Ijebu because those ones build mansions in their hometowns.

yes, not much changes.
everybody dey run come lagos

NothingDoMe:
Wow. Not much changes.

Odidigboigbo:
Where is the modern part located? Bodija, Akala or Agodi the seat of power is like Sango Ota no modern building or infrastructure. Let's truth be told Ibadan people does not build in their town but Lagos

No modern building in Awolowo/Agodi axis. Are you mad or are you daft.

Have you been to old bodija and new bodija.
You can't even get a decent plot of land anywhere in old or new bodija for less than 50-75M at the moment.

The area I grew up around oluwo kekere is just ridiculous now with the prices being asked.

The area that people ascribe with the brown roof is the ancestral homes (agbo Ile) no single Ibadan child exist without agbo Ile, every single house has a dedicated alpha numeric postal code and those homes are well ordered and planned, but for the poor maintenance culture those areas had public water supply and somewhat adequate sewage.

The building were built to superior quality that is why they are no dilapidated the zinc roof themselves are to a superior quality & gauge so the browning is surface rust.

It the families start installing slate roofs the area would loose it's appeal. I'm sure one or two have tried but even the family members would frustrate and sabotage such efforts, they like their agbo Ile like that, remember some of these have family masquerades or family shrines attached which can't be disturbed in the pursuit of a pointless beautification.

Omoawoke:
The essence of showing those pictures is to compare ancient cities with the present day.

I am not here to showcase myself in Boston (I guess that’s where you have a problem, you got bitter immediately I mentioned I was in Boston, you are suffering seriously and I don’t pity you)

I am comparing pictures of old cities with new cities and sorry, I will not snap any picture to prove my location to you. You can die if you want…

But the old Boston building you posted was retouched. Why is it that Ibadan old buildings aren't retouched to prove indeed they are preserved?

No difference, a shithole then and still a shithole now.

If I say BROWN, and you say ROOF, omo na you Sabi....🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃😜😜😜😜😜

kettykin:
That is even inclusive of the fact that they have never been exploited, marginalized, faced genocide or scorched earth policies, no erosion, no earthquake,no war, no Nigeria policy of exclusion. Yet God in heaven denied them progress and left their land desolate.

Even Gaza strip that has been destroyed countless times is not this devoid of progress and growth

😁😁🤣🤣🤣

phantom:
... that's why they hold onto Lagos like their lives depend on it.. 😂 ... 🤦🏾‍♂️

Remove lagos as former FCT, nothing to write home about... the entire region looking like the epicenter of the civil war... 🤦🏾‍♂️

Pele ti e , lagos dey west ... You sef dey claim Enugu na , same una Lagos your tribes men dey call no man's land to have a claim ... Eyin ole yi

I don't get why people keep saying it a sign of stagnation... What do you expect? People's homes should demolished just to show progress without any offense or obstruction of road network? Besides this is only a segment of some ancient developed areas... Ibadan has huge Land Mass reasons why people aren't really interested in buying and refurbishing these houses.... Not to talk of most families are always against selling their family ancestral homes... Some families sees it as a taboo

I have seen 1 difference. In 1970s, the drive was left hand side of the road. Seems those days Naija was neat and tidy. Hmm, who turn us like this ?

you are just an ign0r@NT f0o! who believe that’s how the whole of IB is,when it comes to beautiful infrastructures,none of your b@ckward dung€on come close to Ibadan,because they left ancient area called beree does not mean you are better than them
As for the bolded,your people are still troping enmass to same Ibadan while neglecting the eldorado you have in the east

1979 was quite better

the bolded is very funny 😂😂😂
This shouldn’t be coming from an Iboman who won’t mind risking to come experience civilization in Lagos or Ibadan .
Millions of your people are in IB,ask them how it is over here

1970: They drove on the left.
2024: They are driving on the right.

No wonder Tunde, Biodun, Taofeek, Wunmi, Adetokunbo, Adenira, Sukirat, Abibat, Damilola, Olatubosun, Adekunle, Sadiq, Segun, Murideen, Tajudeen, Olawale, Olufunke, Assist and co are all from Lagos, none of them agree they came from Osun, Ondo, Oyo, Ogun ati Ekiti, now I see



Yoruba wonder, 54 year old man

if they claim they are from Lagos,you have no evidence to counter their claim.
Every Yoruba’s are proud of where they are from

It's really a wonder.


Yoruba land did not experience civil war.

Yoruba people have never been politically marginalized since independence.

Yoruba Land have always been favored first before others when it comes to Nigerian federal government policies


Yorubas have produced President of Nigeria 4 times, Vice thrice.


Yorubas have never experienced politics of exclusion yet take a look at their states and capital, only Lagos state built and developed by Nigeria's Federal government and all Nigerians make some sense, yet these Yorubas will be measuring dick with Igbos, honestly if I was a Yoruba person, I will ask questions and I will also start a campaign to raise awareness for other Yoruba states' massive development cos they are an eyesore considering all the federal favor and political gains Yorubas have enjoyed under Nigeria, plus their proximity to Lagos state the economic capital of Nigeria.


Yoruba land did not start and end in Lagos state owned and developed by all Nigerians

is this epistle not too long for a tiny ancient area in Ibadan like this ?

It's not only Ibadan all the SW states except lagos are like this very backward and underdeveloped. They left their state and ran to Lagos to form omonile. When they see pictures of Igboland being developed by their neighbors in lagos it pains them very well. I repeat this guys cannot develope lagos to what it is today if Lagos was not a state capital. It's not in them.

BadBradley:
there's a big difference in your picture. Old buildings are a sign of heritage and culture and pride
House er old buildings should get facelifts and roof redone.

Old buildings around the world have facade upgrades and changes.

I know you people don’t like us and are looking for every means to spit out your bitterness

Bros, there are enough places in Europe and America that haven’t changed since 1920… just slight modifications..
Carry your phone and google it

Lungs:
A beclouded parochial sentiments of region ethnicity like you would vote for a clueless candidate for a President who has turned the country's economy to a total mess .

Now u are here wailling

A quick reminder we still have 3 more years ahead


YOUR EYES GO PEEL

Your mouth stinks!
This thread is about Ibadan, but the PTSD that Tinubu gave you has eaten deep into your brain and that’s the only thing ringing in your head. Do I have an iota of pity for you, absolutely not. I am glad you are suffering and pained, and yes I supported Tinubu and yes, Tinubu will win 2027 election again. And yes, obi will never be president and yes, you will suffer!!!
