Ignorant people just full this thread...

I am an IB boy to d bone and i mean there is no place i do not know as i grew up there with all family though in and out...i rep RING ROAD..MOBIL/OLUYOLE ESTATE...If you want peace,ib is the lace for you,if you wan enjoy,ib get am,if you are a family man and need good schools for kids while you work,you can surely get in ib...places i would recommend but u know everything depends on pocket but you sure cant compare pricing of laagos to ib as ib is relativelly cheaper.

If you want a normal life now with constant electicity,try and find a place around Alao akala express way..over 30 clubs and pubs and hotels on this high way with security and at least 20 hours electricity and good family people living around and hard woking..no touts or thee aabouts..

Oluyole is not bad but very quiet and same as akala express..if you want close proximity to places like mall,settle for ring road,starting from Akinyemi,D Rovans hotel,town planning,Mobil-7 up road(oluyole)not oluyole Aree area,then Oni and sons,High court,Adeoyo,Olusanya,Ajeigbe,Anfani,Challenge,down to Idi odo,Felele.(Felele is a bit rowdy but they have electricity and nice stores and close to challenge where you can get a cab to any part of nigeria like a transit hub for anybody entering into Ibadan.you must pass challenge.

If you want the extra rowdy then you move to all this bode,molete,foko,oke padre and so on...then we have the Yemetu,UCH which is relatively quiet and have nice quarters...

Then you can head to AKOBO,BODIJA and houses here are not too expensive also and very serene also...educated people with close proximity to Uni Ibadan and lots of joints and malls around here also and there you have bodija market....i guess you could gauge prices as i am describing all this places but as bodija is?with 500k?you will get a 5 bed house with tiles and water and everything all set so thats how ok it is if you wanna live in ib...

400K Gets you a nice place around oluyole.felele about200k...Akala about 400k....molete about 100k...rind road about 350 k..all this places are nice places with no agberos or there about...ask any one and there is no traffic in ibadan...the roads have just been expanded to double lanes and life is generally smooth and if its food....food yapa yaski...

I presently live in dd agos but i enter my IB every week and i usually catch the best of fun around mokola,eleiyele,ologuneru side where there are new settlements and hotels and there about...there are nice hotels everywhere and ladies from universities up and down...

Go check it out and i promise you it is a land doing well with no stress or hypertension..

Shalom.

As at 2017 a friend of mine, rented a room for 26k per year, Recently price have sky rocketed,i want to leave lagos for a while, im trying to get two bedroom flat in Akala i keep getting 400k-600k per anum and oluyole 350 -500k, while alalubosa 700k-1.3m and that's high,i stayed in jericho during my first time there, for almost 2years,i got to know places,ibadan is good really,standard of living is cheap,but the jobs don't pay well at all,and majority of it occupants re not too exposed to the core,sorry to say.... Jericho is good but electricity there is 2nd to zero...Odo ona has better light than Jericho, i dunno about now oo..but before now..that was just the case...I'm leaning towards akala, as they have new house and a quiet environment... The light im not sure....but people re saying it okay, alalubosa would have been a nice pick..but instead of spending 1.3n on a 2bed with no central generator or swimming pool, i did rather head to Aerodome or add 300k and get a standard mini flat in lekki with everything one Could ask for....

If I really reply some of you in this thread. I'll scatter it. Most of you haven't been to ibadan before and all you make of it is some BS you heard from someone or so. Most of you here are people living in the east and Lagos. Most of you in lagos live in bad houses not average. Dirty places like bariga, ebutte metta, oworonshoki, lagos island and many more. Even ur rich men don't feel comfortable in their houses cos of the rainy season that will flood them out.

If you've ur mind set to relocate to ibadan, check and ask for the things you want to experience In ibadan and I'm sure you will get to experience them all. Ibadan is a big city and the only city in SW that can rival Lagos. So the beef is understanding. Ibadan has everything you might need. Constant Electricity, Good roads, Security, Jobs, good houses, good education, recreation centers, malls, Sightseeing, hotels, good food, and many more.

Bro, don't keep risking your life on that road. Aside the fact that on some bad days, you might be gripped in traffic and you'll regret stepping out of your house, you might also likely get tired of travelling that long often. That's from my own perspective though .
