- IITA stands for International Institute of Tropical Agriculture, established in 1967 and operated in more than 10 sub-Sahara African nations. This institute got generous donations by Rockefeller Foundation and Ford Foundation, so the neighborhood of staff has been heavily influenced by north America. It's remind me of the my time in Virginia; To me, this is the best neighborhood in Nigeria, better than Lagos, Victoria Island, Abuja even Banana Island. Right now some of the facilities are available for visitors as resort, so if you plan a vacation this would be a great choice.
The best neighborhood is in my village in obowo, imo state, a clean clear stream of water runs 100 ft from my backyard, I wake up in the morning to birds and squirrels eating nuts near my window, the road is good and the food is fresh and my house looks like a resort, now I know why my father retired early and went there to set up a snail farm.
That’s sounds like paradise. Wish someday I can visit. My dream is one day purchase a camp van, drive all the way from China to cross Europe continent, cross Canal to Egypt, then reach at Cape Town South Africa, to see all the beautiful scenery, meet all the nice person.
You must share the video with TH-cam, so people could see Nigeria
Yes, sure. Will share all the best moment on TH-cam.
Make a video and upload it then. We need to see if it's true lol
@@sylviasworld9397 Don’t mind that mouthy Ugowoundo!!
That place cannot top this IITA backdrop!
It’s a pity that both federal and state government in Oyo can’t extend this paradise to a larger part of Ibadan!
Ibadan is such a letdown for a big Nigerian city !
WOW!! in my own country and I don't even know about it, beautiful video again mate
I really love your videos.. Am a huge fan 👍
Thank you so much. I think because of my DJI Osmo Pocket camera, it stabilize it self
Thank you so much for showing us this lovely neighbourhood LieutZhuNG. I hope you enjoyed your stay.
Thank you for watching. Yes, Nigeria is a country of opportunity.
that s a nice video my friend, i am planning to go there next week !
have you gone? i also plan to go this week
Thanks.
Wow. Nice scenery.. A place to be... 👍👍🇳🇬🇳🇬
At beginning I did not believe this place could exist in Ibadan. For sure I will visit it again
It was nice having you and your team from GAC, we look forward to receiving you again.
Thanks you so much, I am so jealous that you can work in such wonderful place.
@@LieutZhuNG are you working for GAC?
I worked there for 2016 so beautiful environment
I love that place very much, will bring my wife and baby there later
its nice because its green...its like a serene village...you hardly see green estates like this in major cities around the world.
Thanks for the video.
Can we visit this place for tour?
Wil they allow outsiders?
Thank you
I gotta subscribe to your channel, China is doing a great job for Africa. Thanks to you all👍🇳🇬
Thank you so much. I will try to make more video, share more thought, hopefully will be helpful.
China needs to be watched with Hawk eyes. Any business with them must be strictly contractual. And when they are done, send them packing.
China is also benefited from Africa.. IITA Ibadan is a research center for many years. Is not build by China 👍🇳🇬
Your comment is irrelevant to the video. The Chinese should learn to respect and appreciate good things built and established in Africa, we are not less knowledgeable than they are. Not everything good and beautiful comes out of your Chine, Africa has a lot of amazing and beautiful places to offer the world.
@@KM-flyer - I enjoyed watching the scenery in the video but I have to be honest when I saw a crew of Chinese ppl I immediately felt a knot in my stomach. Anything Chinese ppl are involved in is orchestrated by the Chinese Communist Party. This maybe a Chinese propaganda video.
sounds like a fantastic place to go! how long is the drive from Lagos?
1hr: 30 mins
I love your coverage of this area in Ibadan, I wish you can reach out to the Oyo state governor to improve the rest part of the city by enforcing modern roofing instead brown zinc, improving other infrastructure and plant trees, meanwhile I prefer Uyo, Obudu, Calabar, Ikotepene, neighbourhoods to this. But nice job anyway
I would like too, but just a TH-camr. Our state need more industry to create jobs and generate taxes. Then everything will change. Thanks for watching and trust me!
I hate brown roof
He is speaking from the point of view of cost not from the point of view of comfort. IITA is a research centre not a residential area.
Gentleman actually I am talking about the neighborhood. The IITA is the leading agriculture research center in Africa. They have experts from all over the world to help developing local community
@@LieutZhuNG Oh! i get the point now
How much does it cost to live here for a month ??
This can't be the best in Nigeria. What about Bonny island in niger Delta, uyo, port Harcourt, Abuja, lakowe golf estate in Lagos and many more. Take your time to explore every state in Nigeria, you will see similar or more beautiful breathtaking environment.
What camera do you use?
DJI osmo pocket, pretty handy
@@LieutZhuNG I want to get one but I Don't have the money so I'm saving for the Fimi palm what are your thoughts on the Fimi palm?
@@Biobele Has not used it before so no idea. But Osmo pocket has good sound quality. Now their 2nd generation is out, will be a better choice with bigger sensor and wider angle. This kind of mini gimbal camera is perfect for VLOG.
i am going there on april 5
Great experience there
OF COURSE IITA IS DEVELOPED FOR INTERNATIONAL RESEACH WITH INTERNATIONAL RESIDENCY AND COMMUNITY WELL BEING IN MIND FROM THE ONSET.
Omo na wa o.
Please what happened to Victoria island ikoyi lekki
real estate is booming
@@LieutZhuNG of course it is because over time it's an asset but then can also be a liability how you may ask when the money on a particular item sky rockets and no one can afford it begins to depreciate making harder to find a buyer
Who are the developers of this place???
Donated by US charity foundation, if I were right Ford foundation.
I would not have believed this was southern Nigeria. Where's the ubiquitous red dust? No litter on the streets and no crowds.
This is most unusual.
Here is donated by US charity fund and accommodate experts from all over the world to help Nigeria develop agriculture
@@LieutZhuNG That explains it, thank you.
Lol...the ubiquitous red dust of southern Nigeria is ubiquitous to all of west Africa except coastline areas. Nigeria is an absolutely beautiful country.🇳🇬🇳🇬
@@aao449 Isn't Lagos on the coast? There's a tonne of dust there.
@@oceejekwam6829 - Not all of Lagos is coastline area. Coastline areas have more whitish - grayish sand.
Anyway, I never get tired of seeing how beautiful this country is and continues to get from the north to the east to the west to the south.🇳🇬
Can one buy a place there
I do not think so because the IITA is an international organization, the facilities are mean to provide for international & local staff
The rooms we stayed were for people who attending conference there. When its not conference season, the IITA rent them out as resort to gain extra revenue to support research
@@LieutZhuNG interesting and it's located in Ibadan Nigeria do you have any ideas how much that may cost to rent for a day one of the rooms
@@saucegod3173 The company paid for It. Seems around 25k-35k, standard room with two bed
@@LieutZhuNG please where in ibadan is this place i need to visit even if it is just a day trip i neef to see
I hope they treat the Nigerian workers well?
Yes, very decent place. All the people are nice.
@@LieutZhuNG - Hi, she actually was wanting to make sure that the Chinese nationals were respectful to the Nigerians we see in the video.
People are treated by their personality not nationality.
This place is pretty nice and beautiful,but not the best in Nigeria, have you been to million park and rest in Abuja
Been in Abuja many times, way better than expectation. This is still my favorite LOL
@@LieutZhuNG being to Abuja dosnt mean being to the estate he is talking about...
@@tosinojo7310 he knows what he is saying
Are you saying the best neighbourhood can never be in Ibadan?....also,has omini ekwe ever being to IITA neighbourhood too?....I doubt it if he has ever been to Ibadan before self....he only believes in brown roof pictures of oldest part of Ibadan city they always parade online
Who are the people comparing IITA with their neighbourhood and Abuja. Please start watching more of NTA news and less TH-cam videos. It's a shame really that most of you don't know IITA. So tey competition of states and region don enter the fight. Which way Naija!!!!
The neighborhood resembling the typical neighborhood in North Virginia, where I have stayed before. Only better because of climate in Ibadan is for sure superior. Hopefully some real estate developer could build this kind of property, not necessary luxury but neat and comfortable.
@@LieutZhuNG nigeria can make it
What is stopping Nigeria from replicating this all over the country?
They don't believe its Ibadan
You know Nigerian media only shows them brown roofs
No, it is not the best neighbourhood in Nigeria at all. It is good with the green space.
I compared it with Ikoyi and Abuja, still find its more comfortable to live.
you should mention where else is better so we will know and go check out
@@walkbylight Hi !
For me there are many places across the country that are beautiful than IITA in Nigeria, most are hidden places and restricted neighbourhoods.
There are even public ones like LAKOWE, in Lagos and Some parts of Bonny Island, Rivers State.
However, as for resorts IITA can not compete with many because it is not a resort but a research institute for Agriculture.
Thank you
Nice place but I don't think that's the best
For me, yes, better than Ikoyi and Abuja. LOL
The best neighborhood in Nigeria is in Ibadan?? you obviously have never been to Abuja before
I have been in Abuja, but this neighborhood is better organized, typical us style
What do you know about Ibadan city except the brown roofs picture you always feed yourself with to make your self feel better
The same question I always ask when they parade brown pictures of Ibadan....where is IITA,where is NIHORT..where is U.I...where if CRIN
..where is NISER...etc
