Twistaray: It doesn't make sense to litter a city with outdated houses. Houses should be renovated as needed. I know houses built 60 years ago in the east with new roofs or repainted walls. That way, the oldness of the house doesn't get too obvious |

InyinyaAgbaOku:what are you talking about? That's how to judge a city.. Old bad bad settlement and new settlement.. . New York as an example has Manhattan with all the sky scrappers and stuff and at the same time has Queens and some part of new Jersey etc which are old and eye sore.. Lagos has vi, Ajah, lekki and at thesame time has mushin, aajegunle maroko etc. South Africa has Johannesburg and at the same time soweto... Do you expect the entire Ibadan to be an Eldoradoor what? Even Abuja with all the maitamas still has its guagualada... Not everyone can afford to live nice areas in a particular city. 5 Likes |

Twistaray:So, people don't renovate houses there because the town is large? No, its attitude. You don't just litter a city with old houses , it makes it look rustic. In Ibadan, all the old houses are still occupied, so it's not as if the houses are left for new ones. |

I served in ibadan, inside the polytechnic to be precise.... I enjoyed every moments of experience I had in ibadan... Visiting dugbe mall every thrice a week, and other exciting places to be.... The only thing I can say is that ibadan people likes Amala so much.. And I also enjoy seeing them having arguments, the scenario is always hilarious cos of there accent.. |

InyinyaAgbaOku: Cheii This is one of the reason why I don't enjoy engaging anambra fellows. ![]() You still don't get my point. Isn't it obvious that what's been done is your tiny anambra is happening is ibandan? People move/migrate from place to place, move from a place to a better one. Until you can prove me wrong that what's been done in anambra isn't been done in ibadan whatever you say is base on assumption ![]() Nigeria is development mr, not developed abeg ![]() Still don't get? ![]() 2 Likes |

Twistaray:The bigger a city is, the more developed it should be if there is population . Oyo receives more allocations than anambra. |

I served in IB and I had lots of funny experiences. Very cool and cheap city to stay and yes, Ibadan is very dull for a typical Gidi boy like me. I learnt how to eat amala from Iya Ope (Apata), iya kisun (Sango), and Iya Dunni (Challenge). They are very lazy tho, they open shops by 9-10am. 1 Like |

I used to have several misconceptions about the city. it took one weekend away from school to change my mind. need I say that I had so much fun, I didn't want to come back to lagos. I won't even mind relocating there because it's really quiet and economical to live there. 3 Likes |

Ibadan is a city that is very accommodating. Forget about sentiment. Ibadan is one of the Great Cities in Africa. Try and get to Ibadan today you will discover some interesting places to enjoy yourself. To be frank, it is a peaceful place to be and you will love to dwell there. |

donodion: hahaha. .. "woju bi ina beetle" Lawd!!!! I shared a room with two Ibadan babes for a year. Dang!!! Those girls got lines.
