Agodi is the best place to live in Ibadan for average earners
Amazing! I grew up in this ancient city and never regretted it. Whenever bad belle peeps want to show the world the picturesque town, they go to the ancient settlement of the ibadan city to take aerial pictures, making it look like a local place, seeing the decayed roofs all over. They have forgotten that every ethnicity and tribe had their own ancient cities and sites with ancient look. I have been to london, budapest, Berlin, etc and have seen their old structures too with buildings built with red bricks, made of muds . Before such decayed roofs are posted online, they fail to realise that Ibadan was once the largest city in the whole of africa. Civilization of the yorubas started from the city. Ibadan was the NYC and London of the Yorubas at that time. The city of Madam Efunsetan Aniwura, the iyalode of Yorubaland and the richest lady in the black race of her time in the 1790s and the most influential woman in the black race at that time, with over 2000 slaves and army under her control.

There is no proof anywhere that Ibadan is more ancient than Enugu or Onitsha, Rome, Athens or London.
None of these places have brown roofs

Which ancient city? Please stop the cheap lies. How do you explain Abeokuta that has old houses everywhr?

The problem is that most rich Yorubas don't visit their villages, leaving their village houses to rot. Most Yoruba natives who are non-native of Lagos don't know the way to their villages. Yes, I know lots of them.

This is different from what you see in the east where people do traditional marriage in villages and always travel to the village to celebrate easter and Christmas. So, Igbos who have terrible village houses are compelled to refurbish it before those events, making our cities and villages look decent.
yeah my bro we don see how decent Aba looks like.. Mtcheww

Mehn that akobo ehn....out of every 24 hours they have light for at least 18hours.....for those that love stable power supply then go to akobo....for those looking forward to mingle with fellow wealthy people or socialize then “aerodrome GRA” is for you...aerodrome is cool and it is not far from ventura mall and u have access to UI slayqueens too...lol.......but if u like clubbing very well and u want a place closer to some good clubs then just get an apartment at bodija or agodi.......
That holdup on Akobo is the only downside. I don't know what has changed currently.

You mentioned Aba. You should show me the areas in Aba with brown roof like the SW cities I mentioned.

I've lived in Aba myself. You may condemn the roads in Aba but certainly not brown roof houses

There were Igbos in Lagos before 1970.

Why do you single them out as the problem? When there were communal clashes in Lagos who was fighting? Was it not northerners against Yorubas? Why are Igbos on your mind?

This shows you the damage IPOB and their mentally-ill leader, Nnamdi Kanu, did to Igbo people by insulting and antagonising all the major tribes in Nigeria everyday for over a year.

I was Born and Brought up in Ibadan and I know IB City In and out... And I've also been to so many places in the Country and I must say, people have a very distorted view about Ibadan. There are places in Ibadan that has the same atmosphere with that of Lekki, Magodo, VI, etc in Lagos. The same way there are ghetto and slums too that competes with those in Lagos as well.

For example, It's almost impossible for an averagely rich person who lives in Magodo or some parts of Lekki in Lagos or even someone who lives in Kubwa or Wuse II in Abuja to afford living comfortably in Aerodrome in Ibadan, only if you're really super rich and can stay rich for years.

So, to those that see Ibadan mainly and only as a city of brown roofs... May Sense fall on y'all. AMEN

Oga is like you have never been to Abuja, you just here it, how the Bleep to you add wuse II to that list. Do you know what kind of fuckery that is.

i love ibadan. I've always been skeptical about that place until i visited oluyole estate. very serene and easy going place. no traffic. and the population of THE DEVELOPERS selling wares by the walk way is zero. living in Ibadan is like Lagos 1970 before the ibos came in and destroy the standard.
