The brown roof town was rated above FCT , Rivers state, Delta state ,kaduna state. I think we are getting to the last straw of data that will break the data camel's backbone

You've really not explored Oyo State then. It's a beautiful place.

Ibadan the capital of Oyo state is 3½ times bigger than the whole of Lagos state. Just for those who don't know. It is well.



.

Na so east dey less attractive?

Fake list!!!
Anambra remains the number one state. Millions of youths are migrating there daily in search opportunities opened up by Obi, even the OP lives in Anambra

If NBA had move their conference out of Enugu siting security challenges and host it anywhere else outside the South East, you will be dancing makosa Since it doesn't suit your propaganda, you want to change the narrative.

Nobody is discrediting any information. You can't use the criminality and violence in 1 or 2 local government to judge the entire region.

Orsu and ihiala both in Anambra and imo are the hotbed of ipob esn violence. Nobody is denying the fact. The two Local government shares border and their terrain makes it difficult for security agencies to penetrate.

But on March last year 2024. There was breakthroughttps://saharareporters.com/2024/03/08/nigerian-troops-raid-destroy-alleged-ipob-esn-supreme-headquarters-anambra-kill-scores

Combined JTF and Vigilante from both States liberated those villages. Their were massively dislodged. The few that makes it alive run as far as possible and stay in the bush where Army and communities vigilantes set up by Ordima Orsu and ihiala are still hunting them to finish the remaining ones.

There is no record of hotbed of ipob violence in Abia, Enugu and Ebonyi. None.

But you can't say the same about the ritual killings that is endemic in SW.

Go and console your greatest female Chimamanda Adichie crying publicly about the horror in the SE and lamenting "this is not who we are".

She too used to be full of pro-Igbo hubris. Now she is subdued and dispirited. At least she is no longer making excuses and has reasonably concluded, albeit belatedly, you guy have a serious problem.

Unlike your sort who got the SE got where she is backing and egging on Kanu, IPOB, UGM etal.

Wow so Oyo is preferred to the FCT ,Rivers state,
Delta state, AkwaIbom in terms of relocation .

And kwara is having a higher relocation index than Rivers state. This is getting interesting.


And Lagos is not even in the list.

They're relocating from Lagos because of skyrocketing rentals!

Igbo Kwenu!

Not even a single Okoro state? Na wah ooo

WhizdomXX:
You have said it all. Me talking I'm from Delta State and I'm disappointed but I know it is true.

Reasonable Igbos, for the sheer horror the SE has descended into, don't sit online joining threads like this to be making excuses or pointinf fingers at what is going on in this or that land.

It makes sense for a man with fatal disease to be lying he is in robust health while claiming he is better off than his neighbour with a migraine?

Reasonable Igbos accept there is work to do and focus on that. This is why Soludo, to shut up the unreasonable, excuse-making and finger-pointing Igbos, announced that it is Igbos responsible for 99% of killings in Igbo land. This is a Governor with security report some unhelpful and unprogressive noisemaker are not privy to.

Yet same folks sit online making excuse and shifting blame whereas Soludo's brave utterances was a call to action for Igbo, especially those pointing fingers at others, to accept they have caused problems for themselves and must embrace the task of finding solution.

Those sort can be deceiving themselves. The fact that Nigerians are not relocating to the SE speaks volumes.

It has already gotten there my brother, the population there is really massive, my wife is from Oyo state and she recently got a government job in Pyo state, so we moved there, omo, that place is now crowded, just like Lagos and now expensive..

I agree to that

slivertongue:
Too many false stats lately. When it's not on revenue, it's on poverty or education etc

Cost of living in Oyo is cheap. Stop beefing, Bro.

Enugu host NBA conference this year. NBA didn't see Oyo, ogun etc But they see Enugu. The joke is on you.

If SE is not secure according to agbadorians, they would have taken their conference to another region. But they choose Enugu.

Hotels everywhere booked in Enugu till November December! Visitors from Abuja even as well as other African countries coming to Enugu. Enugu airports very busy 247.

Hospitality industries in Enugu are cashing out steady. 247. Continue with you propaganda.


Mind you Abuja and Lagos are two places mainly hosting NBA conference. But this time, they chooses Enugu, why ? They see what you can't see.

Enugu will now be hosting NBA conference alongside lagos and Abuja.

Finally NBA members are now permanent residents of Enugu.
We are talking residence you're talking conference, how are the two related?.

The internal refugee people of Yisreal will be the first person to cry to the UN if Oyo state asked them to leave tomorrow.

stanluiz:
Nobody relocates to your Oyo state.

Infact most people from Oyo , ogun, kwara relocated to Lagos more than anyone other people from other regions. That's why most of you are lagosians

yommen:

Not beefing bro. Some of the stats are questionable. Did you read that of qualified of teachers and how South West is behind the North Central? Cost living is better in most northern states

Have you condenm the ritual killings that is endemic in your region ?

You see it and keep silence. See no evil. Say no evil. That's your mantra in the South West.

Continue hiding the ritual calamity. It won't stop it. It will continue to come out.

ProudlyLagos:
beautiful owerri yet all living things are in a hurray to migrate from the region to Lagos and Ibadan? What are the jobs available in owerri? It would be easier to get a job that pays that amount in Ibadan than owerri….I’m saying this as someone who have been to owerri because I served there, and aside from hotels, clubs and olosho business pls tell us the economic viability of owerri compared to Ibadan Abi na beauty won feed you? Even the modern part of Ibadan as more real estate value than your whole 5plot of unproductive region……Dey play😂😂😂😂

Two months ago I attended a program at Omi Adio, Ibadan and I am not impressed with the crowd am seeing everywhere.

SW leaders need to do something about the excessive migration into the region.

Ibadan that used to be very calm, peaceful with lesser stress has now turned to a over populated city just like Lagos.

Relocate to Epe.
Epe is like Ekiti or Osun inside lagos state in terms of calmness and serene

Ikaeniyan0:
Only Lagos, Ogun and Abuja lead Oyo state in fuel consumption. Oyo state generate more VATs than all the states in the south east in 2024.

No state in the south east can compete with Oyo state

And you go say u go school o. For the record, my state is not there. So I'll ask u, do you know the yardstick used to compile this data? Do you ever wonder why Lagos didnt make the list? I'm sure u would expect Lagos to be there.. that would mean u lack understanding and illogical

Akwa Ibom make sense

You're grasping at straws. Without the massive VAT from Oyo state, the south east will collapse

You can continue to tax your people. Na only tax Una sabi.

Imo and Anambra are still richer than Oyo. Economy is measured by GDP not tax.

Factcheck0001:
it was the turn of the ibos to host NBA n they moved to to a south east state.

Check Google n see that it is always moved around, so to avoid noise of marginalisation they moved it there n check rate of turn up.

It was very low compared to previous years cos people were scared of their security.

Before u argue have your data cos grok will finish work for me here

So na ghosts booked all the hotels and filled up the Enugu International Conference Center which is the venue of the conference??
