fear of what if I may ask? I live in Enugu and I can authoritatively say we don't live in fear. 042 is simply the best.

That guy is high on skunk, don't mind him. I'm doing my youth service in Enugu, I can't count the number of days v left my rented apartment unlocked for days. I would leave house two, sometimes three days and the door, unbolted. What security can my #50 padlock guarantee sef

Many a times v slept in my room with Windows opened... I don't even have curtains not to mention net... And of course, the door unlocked.

Enugu is about the most peaceful state in Nigeria at the moment . I'm from Ogun state... That's to tell you m just being factual.

Nigeria is a fascinating destination, blessed with amazing cities and towns. Most of
these cities and towns are known across the country for their fascinating attractions,
beautiful scenery, natural resources and cultural heritage. Abuja, the capital city is one of the most loved cities in the country. There are other major cities in Nigeria which are very much loved and visited. Some are loved for their homeliness and hospitable demeanour, others are for their economic and business advantages; yet more are loved for their availability of fun, tourism and vacation spots.

We’ve scouted about, dug around and browsed the Internet for recommendations from Nigerians, and tourists, and we still came up with a definitive list of the most loved cities in Nigeria. Therefore, in no particular order, here are the most loved cities in Nigeria to visit:

1. Ibadan
It’s also called the ‘ancient city’ and it’s the state capital of Oyo. It’s described as the
biggest city in the whole of West Africa. Located in the south-western part of Nigeria it is densely populated with so many industrial and commercial activities. This city has the first advance learning institution – the University of Ibadan (formally the university college Ibadan), also the first sky scrapper (Cocoa house) and the first teaching hospital in Africa.

The city is made up of interwoven streets with local and international markets and malls. This city is known for tourism too, with a remarkable museum in the African study institution, botanical and Zoological garden in Agodi and in the University of Ibadan respectively, Mapo colonial city hall. Life in this town is beautiful with diversity of lifestyle and culture.

Re: 12 Most Loved Cities In Nigeria by KingBish(f): 11:08pm On Dec 22, 2014
Op kindly in God's name, delete port Harcourt from this list.
I spent six months of my Life there during SIWES and I can authoritatively assure you that there's nothing interesting about a city I had to wake up by 4am everyday so as to get to work before 8am courtesy of terrible roads and life wrenching traffic.
There's no gentleman in phc. A man all suited up and on his way to work wouldn't think twice before engaging a bus conductor in a physical combat should he spend more than 60secs b4 bringing his #50.00 balance.
At some point I started thinking every resident of phc has some kinda hearing defect cos of the way people shout while conversing.
Don't even get me started with the annoying "RUMU" every area is prefixed with.
I could rant on and on but the truth is that phc no be am at all. GOD FORBID!!

@op, not having Ado Ekiti on your list makes a mess of your selection. Ado Ekiti has similar natural endowments of Jos except for the size of the city. It's serene and has various institutions of higher learning. Abeg redo your list with Ado in the first 5.
name lie I just came back from there,I even stay there a lot.

4. Calabar

Located in South-southern Nigeria and watered by the Great Kwa and Calabar rivers, the city is home to a variety of attractions such as Obudu Cattle Ranch and Tinapa Resort.

The city attracts visitors with its array of tasty delicacies, beautiful architecture and festivals. Every year, Calabar hosts Africa’s biggest street party known as the Calabar
Carnival, where diverse colourful cultural costumes are displayed. There’s never a dull moment in this carnival. For indigenous vacation in Nigeria, Calabar is often the first
location that comes to people’s mind.

The city boasts of several other attractions including an integrated sports complex, a free trade zone and Port and an international air and sea port among many others.
Obudu Cattle Ranch is not located in Calabar. It is in Obanliku LG which some 4-5hrs from Calabar.

What is South South? South–South is a term historically used by policymakers and academics to describe the exchange of resources, technology, and knowledge between developing countries, also known as countries of the global South.

Cross River Akwa Ibom, Rivers, Bayaelsa Delta are all South East . It is a common believe among the civilized world that a typical Nigeria will treat you with contemptuous rudeness rather than research on their ignorance and stupidity.

My list are in no particular order
1. Enugu
2. Uyo
3. Calabar
4. Owerri
5. Jos
6. Lagos
7. Warri
8. Port Harcourt
9. Ibadan
10. Abuja
11. Kano
12. Minna


Jos is living on past glory. Nothing in Jos again. Go to place like ilorin, see how sweet and calm the city is. Cheap and cool hotels. Best maintained Olympic standard swimming pool in Nigeria. Best Base ball pitch in west Africa. Have one of the best well arranged G.R.A in nigeria. Bankers wake 6am, live house 6.45am and in office by 7.15am(No hold up) with good road network. cheap good schools that beat PHC standard. Cheap accommodation. Uyo is another nice city.
