Watch as grown men and women start fighting over this statement now. We have reduced ourselves to this.

Asaba is more developed than lagos. Developed or not, doesn't it worry us that Nigeria is still a developing nation in 2025?

Do you agree?

I, for one, love the drive to project our state positively. We need to build our state to enviable heights.

If VAT is a good measure of how valuable and viable a state is in business, then how do the two states compare in this regard huh

Asaba the home of Nollywood is by far more developed than Enugu the home of water tankers. Enugu is really disgracing the south east because as capital for over 80 years, it still depends on streams and over-taxed water tanker drivers for its water needs.

He is doing his job. How else will be market the state and the capital to outsiders if he doesn't present pretty picture.

To him, it is more developed and it is left to those who want to invest to decide if he lied or not. Healthy competition between states isn't bad, he didn't pull down Lagos, he just said what he thinks and that's good
he told a blatant and unnecessary lie sir and it's not part of "doing his job" because it doesn't even make sense. I keep saying that media aides to Nigerian politicians especially veterans like Ovie who has been doing SA/SSA for close to ten years (?) should be encouraged to go for crash courses on their jobs. Please let's stop supporting rubbish because na our person do am, Asaba is trash and all Delta past and present politicians are utter failures

LAGOS is an environmental disaster.

The whole development of LAGOS is a farce.

LAGOS is largely a massive slum

Honestly I don't see the hype about LAGOS

When the late Buhari insinuated that a lot of Nigerians youths are lazy, we castigated him for not showing Nigeria in a positive light even though we know he was not lying.

Now someone have done the opposite and you still want to crucify him.

I bet you’d have a different tone if Emeka said exactly what Ovie said and if he said that Enugu or Owerri was more developed than Lagos.😊

Which part of Lagos are you talking about? Even Iba New Site, Okwafor, Ikorodu, Ikotun, Igando and others are far more developed than your Asaba. Dey play

Lol. Have you been to Asaba? These places you mentioned are not as developed as Asaba but definitely Ikeja, Lekki, VI, Ikoyi are more developed than Asaba.

That's sorry state of Enugu as one of oldest state capital. It's not funny at all.

Small yansh dey shake,he dey seek for attention Asaba ko Adaba ni,only Ajao estate alone can swallow all Asaba development/infrastructure
I honestly don't understand the basis for comparison here. Comparing Asaba to Lagos is as good as comparing Keke napep to Toyota Land cruiser! The fact that Keke napep is new and well decorated with security apparatus and state of the art gadgets does not bring it close to a tokunbo Land cruiser even with no decorations!

I'm sure he was sleeping and dreaming while making the post.

You have only lived all your live in Asaba.
Sometimes dey travel abeg. There is no state as developed as Lagos. The billionaires in Nigeria all live in Lagos. Even ur leaders have homes in Lekki or BI. Or is it because of the only one semi-fly over.
oga, have you been to Asaba?

There is what is called, sanity, serenity, fresh air, calmness, great ambient homes

How many people well for Lagos.

About 93% of the roads in Lagos are ditches and pools.

Verify from those who live in Lagos but know Asaba. Not some guys who took a night bus from Ibadan to settle in Mushin.

I live in Lagos but know Asaba.

No other city/ state compares to Lagos. If only for that fact that there's opportunities for everyone to express and take, that's enough. What's in Asaba? Or the entire Delta state?

Nigerians mostly attribute development to clearing all the wetlands and other habitats and building houses as development.

Big time lies of this century! How can this governor turn to Lai Muhammad in broad day light??
Re: Asaba Is More Developed Than Lagos - Ovie Success by lucianohase(m): 10:16am On Sep 04, 2025
Is he even their governor? I don't think so, but he has similar surname ..... Someone who has stayed in his enclave like in Gaza strip for years doesn't know how Lasgidi is......
