In This Video, We Compare Owerri, The Capital Of Imo State, And Osogbo, The Capital Of Osun State, Using... Visible On-Ground Indicators Of Development Not Online Sentiment Or Regional Bias.”show more

Comparing Owerri to Osogbo is like comparing New York to Ogbomosho. Even my LGA, Ogbaru, is by far more developed & advanced than Osogbo, Akure, Ibadan & Abeokuta combined. It is an insult to civilized world to compare developed Owerri to backward & uncivilised Osogbo.

As for me, I love the perceptions that SouthEast states ain’t developed. I don’t want the publicity for our cities yet, becoz I want our cities to be fully developed by the Igbo’s alone. I love it when they say “Go back to your village”. 🥹

Na Nkwerre them supposed dey compare Osogbo with. It's a big insult to compare it with ordinary Orlu self.

I don't know here but I think is South East

Data is scared

This why when I see people who has not gone beyond Akure and Lagos say SE is underdeveloped I laugh so hard. At least have gone to all the SE states and SW states.. the difference is clear. it only Lagos I can say stands out in the SW, others are still way behind compared to SE

The only city in SW that can be compared to Owerri is Lagos.. no other place there comes close.

@trigottista Welcome to Ekwulobia in Anambra state. It’s just another town & a village in igboland. And I bet, majority of non-Igbos haven’t heard of it before…… Igboland is developing massively but on the low, maka ndi go and develop yoru region🤣🤣….. God bless Igboland🙏🙏❤️

My inlaws were coming from Lagos to my village and I told them to be free and all they were saying is Imo is not safe ,based on our culture they will have to come, you could see the shock in there eyes that day , one of them started asking if I can get him a land and I said NO

U can add more color grading to owerri then blur oshogbo we don't care, stay in ur state thats all we want ..meanwhile this is oshogbo city with real 24hrs electricity not propaganda... Oshogbo

You can't praise ur state without comparing and forming victim???u ppl need Jesus at this point

Lol tribal sentiment aside, south east have better infrastructure (both in the city and village) than south west (except Lagos)

No city in #Nigeria can be compared to any Igbo city, I know those yariba cl0wn 🤡 will come after this comment saying “what about Lagos and Abuja”? Na we still build am! Without the involvement of the #IGBO #MAN those cities would have been nothing.

The first 1 minute of the video I already faulted your narrative. You pic Osogbo to compare with Owerri based on what? Of all the SW states. Anyways all these comparisons still don't change anything the Sad Easterners still run down to SW.

Never heard of Owerri vs Osogbo b4. So obviously the comparison is ur own fabrication. 1. Imo was created in 1976, Osun created in 1991. 15yrs difference. 2. Imo an Oil & gas producing state. Osun non. 3. Same Osun that almost doubles the size of Imo. So the comparison is flawed

Why would anyone even want to compare owerri and osogbo. Una dey disrespect owerri

I personally wish Alaigbo will become as developed & vibrant like Abuja or Lagos with haters unaware AND CONTINUALLY UNDERRATING, then boom! Igbos will travel for Christmas massively but only few return All Igbo business owners will move their headquarters to Alaigbo Quietly

A glimpse of Kano State, Nigeria. Run a comparison

Ala Igbo if the most developed region in Nigeria Ya Gazie ndi igbo

Why are igbos obsessed with the Yorubas? See you only compare yourself with something superior. Gu The fact that you keep comparing yourself with Yorubas shows they are superior, ask yourself why not north, why not Edo? Why always Yoruba? Are you guys in competition?

If we do Owerri and Ibadan, Owerri wins, Owerri-Ogun, Owerri wins, Owerri-Ondo Owerri wins, Owerri-Ekiti, Owerri wins…those states cant stand Enugu, Abia, Anambra

I did like to see Ebonyi and Ekiti

You should get small shame. Osun State was created on August 27, 1991, from part of Oyo State. Imo State was created on February 3, 1976, from East Central State.

Yor-Thotz is right. Too often Nigerians debate development based on hype or sentiment, ignoring the on-ground reality. Owerri vs Osogbo shows that progress isn’t always where the loudest voices say it is.

Simply experiment.... take a land trip from lagos to SE, after lagos, you will not see any meaningful, modern development till you get to delta state. Same with come from the north, you will start seeing development after benue.

@trigottista Ndi go and develop your region are having epilepsy and convulsing under these comment sections

The road you post for Oshogbo is called “Ona baba Ona “ and that’s just the entrance of Oshogbo. Why don’t you post the developed part of Oshogbo as you did for your Owerri ? Una dey mad 😹😹

Which Nigerians expect Osogbo to be ahead of Owerri? Owerri was the last capital of Biafra in 1969, and has been the capital of imo state since 1976 (50 years). So which sane person would expect Osogbo to be ahead of Owerri?

How old is Imo state and how old is Osun state, secondly Imo state is an oil producing state and Osun is a civil servant State.

Mentioning Osun State along side imo state, is already an insult to imo. Imagine comparing Osogbo to Owerri. hmmm another insult of its own. Now the narrator used so many annoying words to describe SE, he should not try that next time. Osogbo can't even come close to Abakaliki

@trigottista Whenever I discuss Nigeria with friends . Igbo brothers will talk about their state capitals , talk about their towns and villages. Most other people will casually mention their states , say a little about their state capitals and nothing about their towns or villages. Why ?

Osun is a stretch oh. When I visited Abeokuta capital of Ogun that should be next to Lagos in development. I was in Shock. The SW in general is so lagging. Afikpo which is a town is far developed that oshogbo a state capital.

You igbo cap shit a lot comparing a state that was created 1991 to a state that was created 1976 it's the highest order of stupidity.
