You mean the majority of the west with just a stone throw away from the hub of trade and commerce in Nigeria(Lagos) are not even involved in trade or commerce.

Wonderful!


And What makes a house expensive?

It's like you have never built a house before, the cost of land pushes the cost of building to an incredible amount.

Land is not at premium in ibadan even though there are lands that are quite expensive, although I won't get into the details here.

We have many buildings in ibadan, if only you travel often you would have been able to make an informed analysis.

The old houses you love to masturbate over serves as villages to most indigenous people in ibadan and some of those buildings are over 200 years old.

And those houses are not up to 20% of the building in ibadan.


Land costs just a fraction when building a house in the East. For instance, here in Owerri, you can buy land in a good location for just 3 million while it will cost you about 30 million to erect a two storey building of 6 six flats.

You can't possibly tell me that cost of building materials is cheaper in Ibadan than Onitsha. You can't tell me that labour is cheaper in Ibadan than Onitsha because we make use abo.ki labourers here who charge low rates.

It's a fact that Igbos control trade and commerce in Nigeria, even down to your OWN TOWNS & VILLAGES!! Go to any timber market, building materials market, drug market, motor spare parts market, general goods market etc in your town and tell me those that run the show there.

Ask yourself why Igbos largely live in the upscale areas of any city or town they reside in while others find it difficult to do so in reverse (check out Lagos, Abuja, P.H, Kaduna, Kano, Jos etc). There is even a general saying that Igbos are often the reason why rents are high in some places simply because they are willing to pay high prices for good houses.

I have been to Ibadan and a few other yoruba cities as well as north, so I know what I'm saying.

How many thirty story building are in the East or the whole of Nigeria?


I served in Aba (NYSC), I have been to Owerri and Onisha. I haven't seen this so called thirty story buildings that cost 350m


And how many igbos live in upscale areas? Are you sure you have ever left the east? This your argument is typical of those living in the East who believes that majority of the upscale areas around Nigeria belongs to igbos. They forget rich and poor people exist in every tribe.

Meanwhile, you haven't been to ibadan.

USA has slums but very much developed than Britain.

Lagos has slums but million times developed than Igboland.

You are always posting the old part of Ibadan which is not up to 5 percent of Ibadan.It was built when your progenitors were packing their blockoss with their bare hands.It is still better than most parts of Igboland.
.
STOP COMPARING YOUR 5 SE HAMLETS WITH IBADAN.

Do you have any place like these in the entire SE?


Travel and leave that your market place for once.


IBADAN IS MORE DEVELOPED THAN THE ENTIRE IGBOLAND.
Ibadan, the capital city of Oyo State, is presently enjoying a serious boom in the real estate sector of the state. There has been an impressive turnaround in the sector unlike before. The obvious evidence of this development is how major players in the industry are now coming to Ibadan, to tap into the limitless opportunities the city can offer because the environment is peaceful and quite cheaper to run a business compared to Lagos and Abuja.

Though most of them have their offices in those aforementioned places but the land seems to be greener in Ibadan; there are so many lands and new areas to develop. That was the potential the likes of Alhaji Tunde Ologburo’s Quikborn Nig. Ltd; Otunba Olumide Oshunshina and his Megamund Nig. Ltd (Carton Gate Estates) and few others saw long before now to have hugely invested in Ibadan real estate sector. Before Adron Homes & Properties and others lately joined the fray, they have all contributed to the development of that sector in building serene, classy estates with irresistible amenities which can be bought at reasonable prices, depending on one’s level and taste. This is in addition to the existing Government Reser ved Areas/Estates and privately owned estates.

We also have other developers in Ibadan apart from the popular ones that are doing wonderfully well in the industry too. Out of these estates however, there are some that are very popular. Those that you don’t have to live in Ibadan to reckon with.

While some of them are old estates built by the government, some are newly developed estates with master piece architectural designs. But guess what? Some of these estates don’t come cheap, they are exclusively for the super rich and influential personalities. In this special report however, City People Correspondent, Dare Adeniran presents to you 10 most popular estates where the rich live in Ibadan and why they are the most talked about. Read on.

OKE AGALA ESTATE

The total turnaround story of Oke-Agala Estate located at the notorious Igbo-Agala Yemetu area of Ibadan which used to serve as hideout of hoodlums, ritualists and men of the underworld, is quite an interesting one. Now it has been fully developed and a plot of land is sold there as high as over 20 million naira. It is a well structured estate with good road network and several amenities.



IKOLABA GRA

This is one of the few government reserved areas where the rich and powerful celebrities live in Ibadan. It is highly exclusive for people who can afford it. This is where we have Nigeria Customs Service, Federal Secretariat, National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) and others



.IYAGANKU GRA

Iyaganku G.R.A is exclusive for super rich and powerful people. It is a residential neighbourhood with breathtaking structures. This is where the likes of Chief Kola Daisi, Chief Bayo Adelabu, Senator Folarin and many influential people live in Ibadan. Glo Chairman, Chief Mike Adenuga also has his home (Gold Digger’s Place) within the estate. Many expertrates also live there. In fact, Iyaganku G.R.A is called billionaire G.R.A in Ibadan, with high tech infra structural facilities including a fully armed neighbourhood police station.



ALALUBOSA GRA

It won’t be out of line to describe Alalubo as Magodo of Ibadan. The estate is famous for being a place for the classy people. The selling point of the place, apart from the beautiful landscape, is the fact that it has large coverage areas, which now house many privately-owned estates, thereby making properties in this area a hot cake, as a plot of land is sold as high as 25 million naira, while landed property with structure goes for 35 to 40 million naira.



KOLAPO ISHOLA ESTATE

This is another fast developing estate near Akobo/General Gas axis. Though it was abandoned for many years but the estate has bounced back and it has since become developers’ favourite construction site, due to its location and space. Both land and developed property have turned gold here. Selling point of the estate however is the fact that its main road leads back to Dizzengolf, along Iwo-road. A plot land with C of O Title in this estate can’t be sold for less than 12 million naira.



AERODROME ESTATE

When the former Governor of Oyo State, Otunba Adebayo Alao-Akala, proposed to convert the then abandoned Samonda local airport to a housing estate, many came against the idea but today the place has risen to become one of the most expensive and fast growing estates in Ibadan. At the initial stage, a plot of land was sold for about 3 million. But now the same land goes for between 15, 17 and 30 million, depending on location and sizes. Aerodrome GRA is a hot cake due to its location; it is on a well tarred major road, along Ojo Express road and a few metres away from the University of Ibadan. Privately owned estates are also springing up within the estate almost everyday


JERICHO

This is another government-owned estate in Ibadan and its existence is dated back to the colonial era. But now many new structures are springing up every now and then. In fact, Odua group, in partnership with a privately owned real estate company, recently constructed two beautiful estates within the estate.



ONIREKE GRA

Though it is a mixture of rich individuals living in Onireke GRA but the estate is known to be populated by Lebanese in Ibadan and that has been the case for a very long time now, perhaps because of its closeness to Dugbe (Central Business District) where most of their companies/businesses are located. It is a fully developed high brow/low density residential hub. Land or property here is quite expensive too.



AGODI GRA

Apart from being a residential estate for the powerful people, Agodi GRA prides itself as a clean and serene environment. In fact, it could be best described as the seat and home of power. This is where the Oyo State Secretariat, Governor’s office and house, the Deputy Governor’s house and the Fi

When you view ibadan from above, it is only the dilapidated high rise that one can see , others are shanties of mud houses and rustic brown roof.

My suggestion is that Ibadan should demolished to pave way for decent development. This is not development at all except yorubas are just deceiving themselves.
