You know the reason why Abeokuta is not really that developed? Most projects (govt & privates) are just scattered in other areas apart from capital, which is alien to Nigeria system. Akure & Ibadan is more developed than Abeokuta.

The pictures of Abeokuta looks decent still. However, they need to give that state an identity, so as not to turn it into the snarled up massive ghetto that Lagos is. Lagos is terrible and that is the honest truth.

I have never even seen pictures of other places in Ogun apart from Abeokuta. What are the other places like?

You are very correct and that is because Abeokuta is more of residential than commercial. In those days, I know a lot of folks actually worked in Lagos and were living in Abeokuta. I also think that because of the proximity of Lagos and Ibadan to the town, also has an effect. If you look at it, most of Abeokuta indigenes prefer to build their houses in place like Lagos and Ibadan. If you go to a particular street in Egbeda, you'll want to believe that you are in Abeokuta because all the landlords in that street are from Abeokuta. It is now that most of them are considering building their structures in that place. If you follow Kobape road, you'll definitely find new developments going on there, particularly a place called Laderin.

other places in Ogun too are very cool, some cooler than Abeokuta in terms of housing.
But truth be told Ogun is in its construction stage. I don't think Ogun can follow the ghetto path of Lagos coz it's very big.

The UK list is quite impressive cos there are less than hundred black tutors at UK Universities, and shockingly I saw over 30 Yorubas. That means about 30-40% of all black university tutors are Yorubas. Highly impressed.


And if you can check the top 50 Universities in America - you should be able to dig up about 20-25 names. I had them before, but lost everything at work.
