Apparently, he also plays Victoria II.
Your nation is like a son. What it does right is your merit, as well as what it does wrong is your fault. When you praise it, be lucid and avoid exaggeration. Praising it too much can make it indolent. On the other hand, when you criticize it, be harsh, but do not ridicule it. Do your best to improve it, not through derision or disdain, but through good examples and dedication.

But that's a weirdly specific thing to reference.

The "Indonesian fast food-chain" thread was probably mocking the "British supermarkets" thread. This thread is mocking the "Indonesian fast food-chain" thread. Actually, I think this goes all the way back to the "Who makes the best pizza" thread.

Sagamu, definitely. The people are lively, culture is vibrant, service is good—basically, anything you could ask for in a superma—I mean, city.

I went with Ikot Ekpene, because as far as I can tell it's the farthest away from Boko Haram.

I've only read Wikipedia articles on Nigerian cities with above 120,000 people, sadly... :(

So many choices! Uggh, I don't think I can narrow it down! This thread really should be split into 0-600 000 and 600 000-120 000 to make it more managable. I don't think this is nearly specific and niche enough!

Which one is the home city of the Nigerian prince?
O'er the hills and o'er the main.
Through Flanders, Portugal and Spain.

Over the hills and far away.

I'd say Jimeta is mine, because their location on the Benue River makes it an ideal domestic trading port. What about you?

Sorry, Thafoo, but you're being inconsistent. The title says under 120,000, but your OP says 220,000. Make up your mind.
