It has 236 clubs affiliated to it.

Soladoye said that the CCII had repositioned to ensure that Ibadan would become a mega city by 2040.

He called on Ibadan indigenes to work together to achieve the aim.

“We have come up with robust programmes and projects for economics, political and cultural renaisance of Ibadan land.

“There is no room for pessimism, cynism or armchair patriotism. Let nobody discourage us that the project is impossible; in fact we have started already.

“We should be tired of still chorusing the greatness of our forefathers almost 150 years after.

“We need new songs and heroes in Ibadan land,’’ he said.

The president-general said that the inauguration of the committees would enable the organisation to increase its activities.

“We want Ibadan to become the economic hub of South-West Nigeria.

“We want to see the city become the leading tourism centre in Nigeria.

“We want to see it become a reference point for self-help community projects.

“We want to return Ibadan as the seat of political leadership and direction for South-West, and we look forward to seeing CCII as an internationally recognised community voice in Nigeria,’’ he said.

He urged the company to include agro-allied and manufacturing in its diversification agenda for the economic prosperity of the Southwest. Odu’a Chairman, Chief Segun Ojo said that the commissioning of the Ace Estate was part of the Odu’a group ambition to engage in activities that would further “promote and enhance rapid economic development of the South West as per the mandate of our shareholders”.

” What we are witnessing today is a major milestone in the quest by Odu’a Investment Company limited to add quality investment into our real estate portfolio and also to what was bequeathed to us. It is a dream come true by the Board and Management of Odu’a to resuscitate some of its derelict properties across South Western Nigeria “he said

” I wish to affirm that Board and Management team of Odu’a will continue to sustain the heritage bestowed on our generation by our founding fathers. Beside real estate, further Investment in the Agriculture and Agro Allied processing sectors will be intensified to ensure our region’s food security and serve as avenue for job creation and economic empowerment of our youth”
Ace estate was conceived and delivered as a flagship to announce Odu’a re-entry into property development based on consumer demand and insight.

Your opinion

Even you can claim its the smallest and the slowest growing.

FriendNG:


Not my opinion Kano is larger than your Ibadan and more developed.

Danladi7:

Nigeria census says kano is more populated followed by Ibadan by just 300 000 plus.Agreed!

The largest here means landmass "verily,Ibadan is the largest city in term of landmasse in west Africa"

As for more developed,you have no evidence to back that up,so it's remain your ordinary opinion subjected to bias!
By the way,we are not comparing Ibadan devept with kano here neither does the topic reads "most developed".

You can open a new thread to showcase kano city.Doing it here when the topic has nothing to do with it is inferiority complex!

FriendNG:




Sir even when it comes to Landmass Oyo as a state is not the largest in Nigeria not to talk of West Africa.


So I don't wax there you are feeling superior. When the largest city in all ramification is Lagos followed by Kano.


In total the largest state is Kano. I don't have to open thread for Kano as you said we are passive and docile which u assume. We do things when we wanted too.

We have too many educated illiterate in Nigeria.

Learn the difference between a state, city, town, village, community, etc.

Ibadan is the third largest city in Africa after Cairo and Johannesburg.

Ibadan is the largest city in western Africa.

This is what happens when Google becomes ones enemy instead of a friend.

FriendNG:



Mr Afonja go and brush your dirty buccal cavity.

In both city and state. Ibadan is not the largest city and Oyo is also not the largest state. Olodo.

Danladi7:

You are very irritating jare!

who said oYo state is the largest?

who said Ibadan is the largest in term of population?


LARGEST IN TERM OF LANDMASSE(google it) AND 3rd LARGEST IN TERM OF POPULATION..how many time will we repeat this!

AT independence,THE CITY WAS THE LARGEST IN TERM OF BOTH(please google it and show me google result before you disagree)

shukuokukobambi:


Did your education by any means include definitions of LARGEST and POPULOUS?

Lagos we know as most POPULOUS followed by Kano. This thread is about Ibadan, the LARGEST city (Not state!!). I'm sure you now realize you've been barking the wrong tree?

When we come to most populous, we will surely place Kano after Lagos but until such a time, just give it a rest

FriendNG:



First Wikipedia understand largest by population not by land mass.


Secondly even in landmass Gusau is bigger.

shukuokukobambi:


Which means even gusau is larger than Kano?

FriendNG:


No. Kano is the second largest.

Gusau is only largest when it comes to landmass

shukuokukobambi:


For the purpose of this discuss, we're talking measurement of landmass so I'm surprised gusau is larger than kano

FriendNG:



Mtsw shut up. Ibadan is not even largest in Nigeria not to talk of Africa. Lagos remain the largest followed by Kano.
