I had the opportunity of driving through Ekiti State from Omuo Ekiti-Ifaki-Ijero-Aramoko -Ijebu-Ijesha....

Realized that unlike our Igbo brothers that are usually in a hurry to demolish their ancestral homes...our Ekiti brothers do leave such "monuments".

Same Nigeria, different "approach..

One of my "passengers" asked why don't they build new structures but I was like, "why build the new ones when you still appreciate the ones built by your ancestors?

You made a good point

Ido Ekiti is located in Ido-Osi Local Government Area of Ekiti State, Nigeria. It is situated in the northern part of the state were the routes from Oyo, Osun and Kwara states respectively converge. Ido-Ekiti is the headquarters of Ido-Osi local council. It is bounded in the east by Ipere and Iludun, in the south by Igbole and Ifinsin axis and in the north and northwest by Usi and Ilogbo Ekiti.

Wow!..this is nostalgia at its best...I served in this state a couple of years back en yeah the infrastructure is horrible...inspite of all these I still consider it my second home cos there's sumfin you can't take away from those folks..their welcoming en friendly nature is second to none en d weather is simply amazing with nice outdoor scenery..they just need to work on giving ekiti a general facelift cos the state has the potential of transforming into a major stake-holder in the tourism sector of the economy.................#proudlyibo to jupiter en back....

I have been to quite a places in Nigeria and out of the those states I must say Ekiti alongside Ondo stood out for me. The scenery and landscape is unriavalled in my opinion. Some of the places reminds me of carlifornia in terms of landscape (hills, beautiful trees etc.). How ironic that it is one of the most undevelop in Nigeria?

Ondo has it all in my opinion, from nice beaches to mountains to clear blue skies with panoramic textures. If I had a magic wand I would just copy and paste some parts of prague, San fransico, Paris, Venice buildings, road etc and then mix with some progressive African Architectures.

Correct. States with those hilly California/Utah/Nevada like scenarios include Ekiti, Ondo, Abia, Enugu, Cross River, and some northern states (eastern flank)

In the case of Ekiti, that quality is not shown in these photos though.

Gosh, Africa is so blessed. The thought of what Nigeria could've been is haunting... Then again, when you throw in that sense of being in a place that hasn't changed for centuries and sometimes millennia, and you get some of the most inspiring, and inspired, spots on the planet. I am not sure whether the static change is a good or bad thing but it surely was a raw experience.

Nl isn't linked to my mail deliberately, plus I don't do mails lol. Too many lessonsss. Good night.

PDP please this time correct all these imbalances in your states, in Ondo, in Ekiti and in all others that you plan to win. Although Fayemi, an Engineer was there, he didn't do nothing. Will Ekiti for ever remain a Dunghill? Fayiose please build 5 five star Hotels in your major cities. It's business.
