BeijinDossier: Jacob Zuma, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf and Akofo Ado all flew into Imo state directly from their countries because Owerri airport is an international airport. If Owerri airport is an international airport, why then do you think that Enugu airport is a local airport? |

pazienza: Chai. Its good to see that there are people like you who go straight to the point rather than beat around the bush. The only reason I wanted Ikwerre to be part of the greater Igboland was because of the port Harcourt seaport. |

I saw a break down of urban cities in Nigeria on Wikipedia and I decided to share it here. After seeing this list, I think this should be one of the major points we should use in promoting our region as the largest urban geopolitical zone in Nigeria. Another thing I noticed was that the Northwest geopolitical zone has 7 States. Here is the statistics from demographia as written by Wikipedia: Note: All Wikipedia's data on urban landmass are gotten from demographia. Southeast: 29,525 sqkm Number of recognized urban cities: 5 Onitsha: 1,965 sqkm Nsukka: 645 sqkm Aba: 91 sqkm Owerri: 130 sqkm Enugu: 78 sqkm Urban Percentage: 9.85% South south: 84,562 sqkm Number of recognized urban cities: 4 Uyo: 729 sqkm Port Harcourt: 158 sqkm Benin City: 228 sqkm Warri: 142 sqkm Urban percentage: 1.49% South west: 79,665 sqkm Number of recognized urban cities: 6 Lagos: 1,425 sqkm Ibadan: 466 sqkm Ikorodu: 130 sqkm Osogbo: 104 sqkm Akure: 117 sqkm Abeokuta: 62 sqkm Urban percentage: 2.89% North West: 176,303 sqkm Number of recognized urban cities: 4 Kano: 251 sqkm Kaduna: 153 sqkm Zaria: 88 sqkm Sokoto: 88 sqkm Urban percentage: 0.33% North Central: 242,425sqkm Number of recognized urban cities: 3 Abuja: 225 sqkm Ilorin: 83 sqkm Jos: 70 sqkm Urban percentage: 0.16% North East: 272,395 sqkm Number of recognized urban cities: 2 Maiduguri: 155 sqkm Bauchi: 88 sqkm Urban percentage: 0.09% You can see clearly that Igbo hardwork pays and even those who claim to be more economically viable are not as urban as the south east. Assuming cities like Awka, Nnewi, Umuahia and Abakaliki were also taken into account, the SE urban percentage should have been around 15%-20%. Whenever anyone tells you that the SE is the most backward region in Nigeria, remind the person that the SE is the most urbanized geopolitical zone in Nigeria and back it up with data from Wikipedia. By the way, how can we promote the likes of Awka, Nnewi and other cities which were not taken into account so that they can be recognized as urban cities next year because, I see no reason why Ikorodu, Warri, Osogbo and Bauchi will make the list while Awka, Umuahia, Abakaliki and others will be left behind. It was also sad not to see my Asaba in that list. We also have much work to do in Enugu because I used to think that Owerri was the smallest urban capital in the east not knowing that it was our eastern capital city of Enugu. Nsukka's position in the list is also shocking. Abeg Spider88 should bring us more pics of Nsukka. From the stats, Onitsha is the largest urban city in Nigeria. 1 Like |

nnamdijonathan: WIKIPEDIA kwa? ![]() ![]() ![]() Bia, this is a respectable forum. Stop posting Wikipedia things here. You should have cited the page so i will change the data myself and post it here. Mind you, i know SE is the most urbanized region in Nigeria. But Wikipedia isn't a credible source. Did you even notice that Nsukka and Osogbo are bigger than Aba? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() You should know that much if you graduated from any university in Nigeria. My yoruba friend in school wrote everything about every Yoruba town there. I'm sure he wrote a few about Igbo, but didn't want to offend me by telling me. Please stop citing wikipedia in a respectable forum like this. You probably wrote some of that data. 7 Likes 1 Share |

selemempe: Some Austrians identify as Germans, Hitler for example. Doesn't make Austria, part of Germany. The trap here is dragging in an unwilling partner into a union, I thought we should have learnt our lessons from Zik failed experiments with the North? Ikwerre officially dont identify as Igbo, this is the reality we must work with. Nevertheless, all genuine Ikwerre people are welcomed in Igbo gatherings and can even lead Igboland if they prove capable. This is the way to go. 3 Likes 1 Share |
