Abagworo: Better in what sense? Economically? Just review my posts on this thread. You should know better and this isn't about pictures but GDPs and IGRs. How is the size of an economy determined? The GDP figures cannot be ignored and the GDP of Lagos, Ogun and Oyo are higher than that Abia while their IGRs are also higher. |

Is Ibadan not in Nigeria? If there is good news from there, it is good for Nigeria....no? Also Nigeria does not begin and end with one region, state or tribe. It is only when all corners are doing well that Nigeria can be said to be doing well. |

geez*: Only natives of Lagos can proudly claim the above. Natives of Rivers and Abuja can claim that as well with regards to non-natives.. |

Abagworo: I'm from Lagos but proudly Yoruba and you can't compare the number of Yorubas in Igboland to the number of Igbos in Yorubaland outside Lagos. They are all over the SW which they describe as desolate while Yorubas do not in anyway find the SE attractive for any economic reason 3 Likes |

It is only when all corners are doing well that Nigeria can be said to be doing well. There last time I checked.......statistics that take the whole country into account, are not looking so good that people should have time to engage in this type of argument. I have to say this.....it is usually the Nigerian men and their d.!ck measuring that causes this on NL. And they say it is we women that engage in cat fights....lol |

Have to say the comments on this thread and similar threads are beyond imbecilic and show how idiotic the posters are. You accursed Igbo & Yoruba bigots really need to get lives; your mates are out there doing big things with their lives, you are spending yours trolling about whose slum is bigger and whose poo smells more like the bastards that you are. That Ibadan has enormous potentials is an indisputable fact, deal with it. |

londoner: Is Ibadan not in Nigeria? LMAO!!! That is a lie my dear and you know it, so many of these useless bigots are also women, take your time going through the thread (and similar ones) and see them for yourself. You know that in reality; most of them are failures who have never achieved any meaningful thing in their lives (apart from access to free internet). |

This thread was not suppose to turn ugly. It was simply to report what the Financial Times said, i.e that Ibadan is one of the five cities in Africa to watch for future investment. Some of our Igbo brothers don't like that for whatever reason. Talk of bad belle. |
Re: Ibadan: One Of Five African Cities To Watch - Financial Times by londoner: 5:07pm On Dec 16, 2012 |
solomonkane: No actually, there are just one or two women, who in fact usually are engaged with men in these "back and forths". You hardly find it between women posters, and even when they do, they do not take up pages and pages and attract other women to join it. Its a disgrace and it is plain for all here to see.......its a male ego/d!*k measuring contest almost every day here. |

Some of our Igbo brothers don't like that for whatever reason. Talk of bad belle.Exactly, bt d first tribalistic comment was made by a yoruba. Yes, he started comparing d financial times stories to d east, n d rest of u followed suit(review d posts if u lyk) . But den d igbos here r now tellin u dat we r aware its nt well with u dat we are all over naija(go to d north) n making tnz happen plus d fact we own tnz in d east. Aside of cos, d yorubas dt sell moi moi in d evnings @ enugu which cant compete with d biz @ Aba,nnewi,onitsha. Plus,u shd drop ur IGR stuff cos dey r goin back to d govt dat put dem in lagos. U ppl r only lucky u r proximal to lagos,hence d spill over. I repeat,most tnz in d sw r for foreigners,fed govt n Igbos. U ppl lyk d hausas dnt own much in d east but full ground here(@ owerri road). u personally resorted to insults wch is a sign of defeat. however, am nt goin to engage in any further cross-arguements wt u cos i knw u relish dat.

Some of our Igbo brothers don't like that for whatever reason. Talk of bad belle. You are a big liar. I came into this thread when someone wrote that Igbos are all over Southwest while Igboland is barren. He also wrote that Aba is poo. I can't shut my mouth while falsehood is being spread here in order to downgrade Igbos. |

geez*:Remove Lagos and the SW is dead economically, Agbara and Shagamu in Ogun are Lagos satelite industrial estate. I told you before and still repeat it now that Aba city alone has far more industries than Oyo state. I knw the SW as much as you do, so i challenge you to name the industries in Ibadan while i name those in Aba. Stop peddling Nigerian statistics, it does not prove anything, they are mere estimates of propaganda! 1 Like |

geez*:MYOPIC! The Igbos are the most adventurous and daring ethnic group in Nigeria, they are not just in the SW, they are all over Nigeria, Africa and beyond. From Lagos to Damaturu, Kinshasha to Niamey, the Igbos control the informal sector of West Africa. I dont blame you, you have not ventured out of Ogbomoso, So wont know that. |

geez*:UNINTELIGENT! The Chinese are all over the world doing what they know how best to do, does it now depict that China is backward? Please allow me to teach you basic economics. When someone produces goods or services at a cheaper rate than his contemporaries, due to his skills or better opportunities, he is said to have comparative advantage. This is the reason why you find the Chinese in Angola or Igbos in Mali, its not because the places are more developed, rather they move from stiff competition at home to virgin areas they can dominate. You see why Igbos are really smart? Go to any spare part market in Sub-saharan Africa, you will marvel at how the Igbos control the supply chain and the most interesting aspect is that they make Nnewi their hub! 3 Likes |

Tusky44: Determinants of a city with potential include but are not limited to the following: There are many cities in India that definitely do not have ''world class infrastructure'', yet are booming with foreign investment and local innovation. As for their food, the less said about that the better. |

Rossikk: This isn't about "world class", just like I argued on a thread about Nigerians living in the U.S., , at least, standard will suffice. There's no way you'll expect a economic boom without standard infrastructures. Even China and India knows this that's why they focus on public infrastructures. Your cities you refer to in India have better facilities and infrastructures in place to aid economic boom, and not the other way around. They have access to communication, transportation (MOST IMPORTANTLY), distribution networks, markets etc. |
