Every State In The South East Have More Than 1 City by horsepower101: 11:57am On Mar 21, 2018 |
I have noticed that Most states in Nigeria tend to have only one major city and its usually the state capital. But in the south east, each state usually have more than one major city. Abia state: Aba, Umuahia Anambra state: Onitsha, Awka and Nnewi IMO state: Owerri, Orlu and Okigwe Ebonyi state: Abakaliki, and Afikpo Enugu state: Enugu and Nsukka This is in addition to surrounding towns that are also developing into their own future cities. 5 Likes 1 Share |

You people have started comparing when other zones compares you get angry. Good job for the person that mentioned Kaduna, Ogun and Delta state. My Rivers state is - Bori, Eleme, Abonema, Omoku, Ahoada, Oyigbo then Ikwerre local government because they have relatively developed towns like Aluu,Igwuruta,Omagwa, Isiokpo and Elele. So OP don't think it's only in South East you have such almost all states in Nigeria have other developed towns and cities using Nigeria standard as development. Because going by internationally standard of development no Nigeria cities or capital will make it except Abuja. 6 Likes |

Zonacom:Nnewi is not your mate Read more As a fast developing city and a major industrial and commercial hub in Africa, Nnewi experiences voluminous financial activities, therefore hosts major banks, and other financial institutions. Industries are dotted around the city and adjoining towns, Nnewi metropolis is made up of two LGAs south and north host Nnamdi Azikiwe university teaching hospital, National Engineering Design Development Institute (NEDDI) and others Industries Nnewi is home to many major indigenous manufacturing industries including Ibeto Group of Companies, Cutix and ADswitch, Uru Industries Ltd, Omata Holdings Ltd, Cento Group of Companies, Coscharis of Companies Group, Innoson Group of Companies, Ebunso Nig. Ltd, John White Industries, Ejiamatu Group of Companies, Chicason Group, Louis Carter Group, etc. The great majority of industrialists in the cluster of spare parts factories in Nnewi are also traders, and most of these traders are producing one or more of the products they specialize in marketing as traders (usually motor vehicle parts), and most began by distributing their products through their preexisting distribution networks. Nnewi is part of eastern Nigeria's industrial axis. The town has through culturally grounded institutions that act as sophisticated networks expanded to include an international dimension through trading relations with exporters from Asia. Over the last decade, the town of Nnewi has experienced relatively rapid industrialization. In excess of 20 medium-to-large-scale industries have been established across a variety of sectors. Since 1970, Nnewi residents have controlled approximately 80 to 90 percent of the motor-parts trade in Nigeria. Nkwo Nnewi Market is the major import and wholesale point for motor spare parts in Nigeria. The industrialists of Nnewi are adapting foreign technology to local needs, providing employment to thousands, and making available goods and services which are relevant actual needs of the Nigerian citizens. The first indigenous car manufacturing plant is located in the city, while the first wholly Made-in-Nigeria motorcycle was manufactured in Nnewi by the National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure (NASENI). 8 Likes 3 Shares

NO NIGERIAN STATE HAS A CITY. STOP INSULTING CITIES ALL OVER THE WORLD. THERE IS NO STATE IN NIGERIA THAT EVEN HAS A STANDARD TOWNSHIP LIKE WHAT IS OBTAINABLE ALL OVER THE WORLD LIKE AMERICAN COUNTRYSIDE TOWNS. WHAT WE HAVE ARE GLORIFIED VILLAGES IN THE NAME OF TOWNSHIPS. LETS HAVE A STANDARD TOWN BEFORE WE CAN TALK ABOUT CITIES. FUNNY ENOUGH, THE WHOLE WORLD IS NO LONGER TALKING CITIES. THEY ARE UPGRADING TO SMART CITIES. OP BEFORE YOU CALL ME AFONJA, AM HARDCORE NWA AFOR. BUT LETS STOP CELEBRATING MEDIOCRITY! In The Whole Nigeria, name one city for me that has all these; Standard Transport System Like Tokyo Standard Railway System Like Beijing Standard security Outposts and Stations Like London Standard Electricity Like America Standard Communications System Like Oulu, Finland Standard Water Supply to every home and Offices Like USA Standard Gas supply to homes and flats like in Russia Standard Road Network like Munich Or California The list is endless. Nigeria is generally a shithole! Op even mentioned Onitsha as a city. Lol. I laugh in Southern Greek. Which place in Onitsha has a standard road network? Quote me anywhere, there is no place in Anambra that has dual carriageways even there so called Cities. Though Anambra has good tarred roads, 90% of them are just one lane! Quote me anywhere. You see people building mansions all over Onitsha, Nnewi, Awka, Amawbia, Nkwelle, Nsugbe, Ogidi etc ... But the road that leads to a Mansion worth billions is just one lane... Lol. 3 Likes |

SamoaJoe: I understand your point but below is the definition of a city from Merriam-Webster dictionary Definition of city plural cities 1 a : an inhabited place of greater size, population, or importance than a town or village e.g.: We spent the weekend in the city. You are talking about something different which is infrastructure. I am not delusional that our cities are lacking in that aspect but they are still cities regardless. 1 Like 1 Share |
