Because the govt at the centre has refused to give South East water ways, Niger bridge and after how many years just one international airport. You all know the effect of giving Igbos one Seaport ?

Given equal footing, you and I know that no part of Nigeria can match the resilience of the south east.

Oyibo man said it. Even America will know..

Mr. Fash built a bridge and wanted to go on a stupid dream to build another international airport. So tell your governors to build bridges cos the SW has also been deprived of development by the govt at the centre.

Good one for Enugu and Nigeria. Though I haven't been there before but for such an international organisation to endorse Enugu and put them in the league of these other world great cities, it therefore means Chime has made giant strides there. These are the kind of news we want to hear about Nigeria. Kudos.

Yes, Enugu seats on Coal deposits and rocks. It will cost up to N1m to have a borehole in ones compound in Enugu but only N200k for the same borehole in Aba..

And N50 k for a borehole in Lagos

As an anambra boy born in Owerri I can categorically say that Enugu is so on point and Owerri rocks yo the best in east ...Owerri rocks

Aba is money bags in nasty area

No wonder the isreali ambassador to Nigeria was astonished the last time he visted Enugu. Enugu in over a century of existence has accomdated generations, seen developments and war, and several govts. Enugu with one of the best planned network of roads with paved pedestrian walkway, sports arenas, shopping malls with one of best working utilities in any Nigerian city- excellent refuse disposal, traffic/street lights, police vehicles etc when you are in Enugu never miss the sight of the rolling hills you will definitely love it

of course they probably visted nsukka town. They are evaluating towns/cities not states/provinces. Nsukka could be on the top one thousand list

Well planned and very clean city! If you have lived abroad for a long time and looking for a Nigerian city that will offer you the same as abroad...quiet, clean, well planned, road network, less crime, malls, nice houses, Enugu is the best choice! Home to many wealthy and middle class Igbos in diaspora. People there are educated, well traveled and exposed. Lagos, Abuja or Port Harcourt will be too fast-paced for you. You will fit in well in Enugu. My two cents!

Why do you guys like comparing apples with oranges? What is the size and population of Enugu compared to Lagos? Enugu, by all standards, is a very small suburb in Lagos. Nothing more...The road networks in Enugu might not even be up to 10% of what exists in Lagos!

The problem I have with most of our southwestern brothers is the fact that they rarely travel outside southwest. This make most of them feel that the best place to stay in Nigeria is probably Lagos. You need to make out time and travel and see for yourself the massive developments in other part of the country, especially in place like enugu, akwaibom, crossriver etc, before you start giving lagos the unnecessary hype

[quote author=TonySpike post=28636720]

My friend, I lived in Enugu for over a year. Don't make me start a pointless argument! I don't even think Enugu is as big as Onitsha and Aba in the first place. I repeat, Enugu roads may not be more than 10% of the road networks in Lagos. I have seen it all, is it from Holy Ghost Cathedral to Ogui road, Awkunanaw area, Abakpa or trans-Ekulu layout. If you're in doubt, I'll use Google map images to prove my point.[/quote

Am so surprised that you stay in enugu for a year and you still argue that enugu is as big as onitsha and aba.get ur facts right
