I don't know if you call atiba(that is where the alaafin is) which is the main local government in Oyo town a remote village then why do you still argue that Oyo state is more urbanized than anambra state? Because it's the 2nd or 3rd most urbanized area in Oyo state after the capital Ibadan and maybe Ogbomosho as the case may be.


Oh really?

What is false about my statement the fact that I said I'm serving in Oyo town or the fact I said Oyo town is the 2nd or 3rd most urbanized town in Oyo state?

Urbanization is a word for becoming more like a city. When populations of people grow, the population of a place may spill over from city to nearby areas....
The poster seems explaining in the number of big towns associated with the capital city of each state to judge urbanization. Even when states like osun, ondo, akwa ibom etctl that some mentioned with very low business strength have more big towns than abuja, rivers, kano that have heavy population & business depth.
And that's why u see in rivers, lagos, abuja and other big cities, dwellers could go as far to go wider to there other towns even if small to leave there.
U won't tell me u want to rate states been urbanized and not start from the capital to the infrastructure provided and as well as there population depth and also the industries that thrives in them.
Lagos, FCT, Rivers, Anambra, Kano, Ogun(cos of nearness to Lagos), delta, Oyo, abia, Kaduna are my best 10.
One make more money in those states than any other and should be used in rating urbanized states...

Sha, how is Port Harcourt close to Lagos?
Even if that where to be the case, Lagos should be the ones benefiting from Rivers and not the other way round. .... . Most of the things shipped through Lagos are owned by other state but due to the wicked nature of the government, they forsake our ports and give glory to Lagos.
Note: Lagos was a capital, Abuja and Cross Rivers.. ... They were made to standard by the whole federation and not indegenes only, That makes Rivers state the most indegenous developed state and that's what matters.

Lol, you don't have sense

We are talking about urbanization and not population

Anambra has just three major urban areas, Nnewi, onitsha, awka.

Ogun has abeokuta, Ota, ifo, mowe, ibafo, sagamu, ijebu ode, ilaro.

Ogun knew if they spread industries to most areas of the state and also provide infrastructures for them then it will stop migration to the capital.

In anambra's case, most of their industries aren't distributed , they are concentrated majorly in onitsha and Nnewi while awka is the administrative capital with just few industries

So ogun has more urban cities than anambra and thank God you have confirmed it yourself too that anambra has just three major cities



you are still typing trash.....
you are seriously comparing Ogun to anambra...
mind you d industries in anambra are evenly distributed...
Ogun industries are where they are because of proximity to Lagos, and not because of Ogun state government directive...
Even d industries in Ogun state see themselves as more lagosian than been in Ogun...

Mind you, the OP has said it all...
You afonjas are bent on arguing trash....

Anambra has cities like ekwulobia, ihiala, otuocha, aguleri, umunze, okija etc..

Anambra is d only state in Nigeria after Lagos, that when you pass you will not know you have passed someone village.....

D different between urban and rural areas is minutes....

And you know very well that d state is small....

Anambra has d 2nd population density after Lagos...this is not about d residential population but people visiting d state on daily bases...

Anambra is highly urbanized, you can confirm that from d google...

D Ogun state cities ,you mentioned are even rural considering d type of houses and settlement there.....

Okija town host 3 private universit,but that does not make it highly urbanised...

Ozubulu in anambra host numerous industries, but d workers live inside d industry residential quarters, and some lives at Nnewi.,that does not making ozubulu urban...

Most of d places, you mentioned in Ogun are just farm settlement and also d yoruba nature of living in clusters...

If not, what is d occupation of those dwellers..

we have farm settlement like igbariam, Anam, ogbaru, and co....but they are not regarded as urbanised area...

Even Abeokuta, that you mentioned have 70% residents as farmers just like Ibadan....

So youngman, think before you argue..

Porthacourt international airport is in omagwa, but omagwa, but omagwa is still a rural area...

80% of d oil industry in porthacourt are located in onne ,but one is still rural..

IMO state airport is along aba road and d place is still rural..

So next time think properly before you type...

D anambra state in general is not an agricultural state..it is a commercial and industrial state just like Lagos...

it is d current governor that is introducing a mechanised agriculture in most agrarian community...

Thanks
