Although i was so eager to watch this video, I exercised patience to watch the 2-minute long ad. Nwanne, Thank you so much for the fantastic job you are doing to change the narrative about Igboland. I have been sharing your videos at the US University where I am now where everyone was encouraged to share a video of their hometown. The reaction has been like Wow! Truly, the impression about Igboland and Africa in general is changing. Thank you so much! Biko jisie ike! Also, combining the aerial shots with shots taken on the ground level is a fantastic blend of visuals. That is showing how it looks on the ground, and from the sky. Thank you so much for sharing and the great work you are doing on behalf of all of us!.
Yoluba journalists are calling Awka village capital because our so called billionaires have no good advisers, they would have elected towers at Awka, look at how many of them from Anambra State claiming to be billionaires, with nothing in the State's capital to show.
Incredible. When I was in university Awka was termed as nothing more than an LGA headquarter. Now look at this expanding metropolis. Bro are you Anambralstson on nairaland?
Every city should have its own unique identity. Though trees are always good to have around but we can't continue as Africans to live by other peoples standard.
Also it's cold abroad. When there flowers blooms it's nice no doubt but have you seen how ugly it looks in winter or snowy times. Our wheather is hot. That alone will kill flowers and trees. Also I once heard someone abroad say Africans are too thin they must lack good nutrition. I paused him to educate him that africans enjoy organic food straight from the farm which is why they maintain a reasonable weight. Plus the sun alone will make you sweat. It's foolishness to assume that because someone living in Atlantic Canada where they get 8 months of cold and 3 months of mild sunlight is plumpy and looking nice and plump then they are healthier. That's a cluster of excess fat, toxins and other cancerous foods they process over there. I told him keep quite my brother, go to the gym and run for your life. You are not healthier than Africans living in Africa.
I have worked in Awka for two years, around 2017/2018,now living in the north, but I seems not to recognise any place,and the city look more beautiful than I knew it.I guest ukwuorji and governors lodge area are not included here.
This is really amazing man! Nice work. Very good shots and nice sound to go with it. That school in the beginning clean tdie. I like that you showed it twice man, I was anticipating to see it again, lol. Which school is it?
It’s finer than so many capital cities in Nigeria already. Or you need is an airport and two or three skylines. Anambra is a state I admire, self made people with three to four great cities and towns. Awka, new I, onitsha and even ihiala
@@davidojamesjameson419 Awka is a beautiful city with wide roads, though inner streets are usually not so wide just like every street even in Abuja. But generally Awka is a beautiful city with good roads
Awka is doing well thanks to the individual efforts of the Igbo people. It seems that Awka is more modern and organised than Onitsha or am I not seeing properly? One thing I've noticed from watching several videos of cities across Anambra is that our state Governments are not doing enough. I mean the major cities in Anambra are littered with tiny, unkempt and dusty roads. I often wonder how these cities would have looked like without the industrious nature of our people
Anambra generally has the best road networks. Cities of Awka and Onitsha have wide decent clean roads, flyovers, etc. Anambra is generally the most developed state in igbo land. Places like Owerri or Aba have the worst roads in igbo land
@@youngman6981 you are the one running from thread to thread misinforming people because you are a paid agent. Point out any lie in my post. I only informed the people rightly because your post is filled lies and misinformation
Good footage and editing. I will take a contrarian opinion to most here. Buildings are neither a sign of beauty or development. The natural environment was always beautiful. If people had built around without cutting down every tree, it would have remained so. Infrastructure, jobs, access to good education, Healthcare and improved life-expectancy are signs of development. All those are more important and can happen without tall buildings. Having said that, it's clear to me from your drone shots that parts of these cities are better planned, less chaotic and cleaner than most in Nigeria. Let's deviate from "shinny toys" though and force focus on jobs, education, Healthcare and infrastructure.
@@kingmemanagement4283 As an investor you would do a CBA using DCF analysis and pick the one with the best return on capital. Governments also have to do cost benefit analysis. Since they will NEVER be able to do as much as the private sector their role is to create an enabling environment. Since this place was starting from scratch what they had was an opportunity to setup world-class infrastructure and building code standards (No open gutters, underground utilities, electricity and drinking water etc) That would have been needed development, that no other city (except Abuja in some areas) has which would both improved health outcomes and attracted people and subsequently investors. Nigerians need focus on important things. Norway does not have fancy buildings like New York, but their people are happier, live longer and no one is hungry -essentially they have better quality of life than New Yorkers.. The point, Akwa will never be Lagos so stop chasing "biggest, tallest etc." Instead beat them at what don't have.
Awka is not developed as expected, Abakaliki still dwaf the capital to the ground. Look at dust, sand dunes and refuse dump on the tiny roads. Awka is only from Government house to Aroma junction federal road, Obiano should try cleaning up the roads, build inner roads and lots it up like Umahi did to almost all the roads in the city of Abakaliki. To me Awka is still underdeveloping below it capacity. Onitsha is another big name with dead or no infrastructure go show for it while Obiano is drinking away time on Alcohol, doing cosmetic painting and patching of failed substandard projects littered in Awka. I pity my people. Vote wisely Omambala.
@desmond nedu Alaegbu, 🤣 so you have not stopped crying. Read people's comments on this vlog, more than 98% confirmed that Awka is a beautiful city with decent roads, FLYOVERs, etc, unlike the glorified village called Owerri that's a dumpsite of bad roads and filth. Onitsha is another beautiful clean organized city where millions of imo indigenes are running to for greener pastures. Now Bornu is more peaceful than Imo state courtesy of your incompetent failure governor. Imo state needs to borrow Obiano to turn things around in your backward shithole Imo state
@Desmond nedu Alaegbu, this is the condition of the glorified village called Owerri. Owerri is the worst state capital in SE. Owerri is littered with dilapidated filthy tiny roads everywhere, while Uzodimma is busy using Imo allocation to rub bleaching cream. Owerri is just Wetheral road, our Imo governor should build roads in Owerri, clean up Owerri. Just look at how Owerri looks like a stone age village Imo is a failed state ruclips.net/video/AkVJM4S8blM/видео.html
@@desmondnedualaegbu5526 I am from Imo state but i am ashamed of Imo state. I was in Owerri recently, that town looks like Syria. Bad roads and filth has given Owerri a trademark. Our governor is always confused. He hasn't even paid workers. Imo state is now worse than Abia state..

Unfortunately I...
You are right my brother, don't mind them
They have better road n more constant electricity supply in the north than in the east
Nice but when will they plant trees in all the roads and streets or don't they see how it is in Singapore or UK and in USA?
Chukwudi Nwangwu it’s akwa uk?

Awka is really developing ! will get there like other capitals in the States soon.
With the amount of infrastructure they are building in the city everyday, they will definitely get there soon.

No single tower building in Anambra state what a pity chaii Jesus help us oo small small building no single federal project
And the roads are very slim just like slim mama with red powder make up Lol .
You need constant electricity for high rise buildings. Those require elevators.
