Patrioticbreed9: You are still using scale to compare. The reason it is agreed that Yoruba is an ancient urban dweller, even ahead many European cultures, is because our cities comprise the full characteristics of an urban center. I have written and gave my theory online that the word "urban" is etymologically derived from Yoruba word "Oba". If you want to see my contribution on cognates between Yoruba and Latin/Roman root words go to Nairaland Culture Section. The characters of an urban settlement comprise geo-labels such as Upper; Lower; Cross or Tri; Center; Outer; Market; River; etc... These characteristics are fully captured in every Yoruba town, such as Oke; Isale; Orita Merin (for cross) but Orita Meta (for tri); Arin; Ita; Oja; Odo; and so on. These characters are found to repeat in every Yoruba town. You will also find it exactly mirrored in foreign places Yoruba have settled. It is part of the culture. Metropolitan buildup is foreign to us. The characters of metro or mega city are, Main Street or Broadway; City Hall; Mall; Boulevard; Waterfront or Marina; Bridges; Highways; Drainage & Waste treatment; Statues, and so on. In contemporary times Ibadan is far much bigger urban city than Lagos is. Towns linked into towns are inside what we call Ibadan. Lagos does not have that. Meanwhile, Lagos comprise all the characteristics of a mega or metro city, far more than Ibadan. |

MetaPhysical: MY BROTHER, WE CAN DO ALOT BETTER THAN WHAT WE ARE DOING TODAY, IF WE PURSUE A MERIT BASED SOCIETY WITH A FOCUS ON FUNDAMENTAL HUMAN RIGHTS. IF WE CANNOT THEN LET IGBO GO EAST AND YORUBA GO WEST. WE DONT NEED THE NORTH, IT IS THE NORTH THAT NEED US. NA OUR MONEY THEM TAKE BUILD ABUJA, WHICH IS THE ONLY THING OF VALUE NORTH. |

MXrep: The words "urban" and "development" have become co-dependent and interchangeable, to the extent that "municipality" has completely been eroded in nomenclatures of city planners and public policy makers. When was last decade you heard anyone for instance say, Lagos Municipal? Your post proved a part of the point I made earlier. Urban is not a well understood term. Many people are ill-informed and throw it out loosely. |

How nice will it be to have that undeveloped island in the picture to be used as the new CBD. Exclusively for High Rise buildings... Minimum 15 stories or more. |
