I Explored Asipa: Empty Houses, No Jobs, No Electricity & a Forgotten Market đIndexĂ© :
I Explored Asipa: Empty Houses, No Jobs, No Electricity & a Forgotten Market đ I explored Asipa in Osun State, Nigeria, and what I saw was heartbreaking. đ This town is struggling with no jobs, no electricity, no bank, and no police station, while many residents continue to call for basic development and support. The market activity is very low, with few buyers and sellers, and many dilapidated and abandoned houses scattered across the community. Locals shared their frustrations about how difficult it is to survive due to lack of opportunities and poor infrastructure. During my exploration, I also visited parts of the IbadanâIfe Old Expressway, an abandoned road that has been left unused for years, reflecting the wider issue of rural neglect and infrastructure decay in the region. This video highlights the reality of rural decay in Nigeria, the challenges faced by communities like Asipa, and the urgent need for development, investment, and government attention. đ Location: Asipa, Osun State, Nigeria đ Issues: No jobs, no electricity, no bank, poor market activity, abandoned infrastructure đïž Focus: Abandoned houses, rural development, IbadanâIfe expressway, community struggles đŹ Support Me â Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/Olaoluwaojeleye đł Account: 0236365511 â Wema Bank â Ojeleye Olaoluwa Samuel đ± Follow Me for More Content: âą Facebook: https://facebook.com/ojeleyeolaoluwa.3 âą TikTok: http://tiktok.com/@olaoluwaojeleye âą Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/olaoluwaojeleye âą X (Twitter): http://x.com/olaoluwaojeley đ„ Raw.

>> People are really building houses.
They are new sites. You see this this is new sites and this is another house.
That's it. Just built.
You see everything. Now you see those roof over there.
This is how it look like. But like I already said, there is no town you go to that don't have new sites. They don't have the places. They are building new new houses, too. There is no town in this life. Even there are so many places that is very abandoned. You will still see someone there. You will still see so many places there. They are building new houses, too. So this is how how everything look like in this place. I just come to They still have another place which is not where we are.
I'm just trying to show you guys first of all you to see.
This is how everything look like in this community I am now.
For the people that want to come back home to build a house, to do different things, you can definitely come back.
This is the opportunity for you. And somewhere like this, if you want to buy land, it's not going to cost like for you to be in big city, want to buy a new land.
These are the houses in the community.
Today is the market day of all this place. Last time I came here, those one was talking about how the market is no more selling like only few people coming to the market. Today I'm back to super. And those people I've been seeing the market since when I came here, it's only few people.
All right.
>> No fighting there.
So boy But what he told me some years ago, a lot of people do come to this market, but today people don't come to the market like before again.
Do you have something to say?
All right.
This part of the market, but you know normally the reason why they build all these building you are seeing right here is because of the market. Like during the market the people can have the opportunity of staying there, but nothing now.
Nothing there.
So uh We use the market in here for market this year.
Do you know what you got there right there?
What you got there right there?
What you got there?
Uh how many days? Do you want to meet them?
All right. As as far as we know >> I don't know.
Goodbye, darling.
I think it was over.
Hello, darling.
All right, I want you to remember any changes.
The uh yes.
So, you see you hear what this woman was talking about. The market right now in this place is is it [snorts] has to be like one line people normally see it has to be. So, since it is changed and people are complaining the market is not like before.
We can't just interview everybody because if I try to go to another person now, what they will be complaining is all about the market that people don't come to the market.
This is part of it.
Today, you can't what you will even think if they tell you today is the market day, you won't know you will not know. You will just think today is just a normal day in this place.
You see?
This is part of all this place.
That corner.

Normally, markets should reach all this side. Last time I came here, I I passed through this side that day. But, I was unable to show you guys the school. This is the school right here since Anglican Primary School.

Oh, last time I visited the kitchen movie, I talked about this calabash and this is asip part. Something like like this is also where Yeah. You know that time if you have this calabash, this is natural as you see.
And a lot of people they was using it to do different thing that during the olden days. Like some people they use this as a sleep as a plate and some people they use this to carry sacrifice and different things they want to do during that time. They use this calabash to do.
This is L.A. primary school in this place.
I want to see the year this place was founded. I want to see.

According to According to what they told me, they said this road This road we are The road reach straight like this to the market. They said some years ago this is the battle express road. I don't know they said there is one village around this side that the road lead to the place but today This Federal road.
What do you know about the road?
Unfortunately, according to what we hear from our elders, they told us that this place belongs to the federal road. This is the old the federal road before they moved this road to the new permanent road now. But ever since then, they have abandoned this place and most of the time maybe when there is road block they usually make use of this road road just to find their way out to their various destination. But we appeal to our brothers and sisters who are abroad to come around and help us in one way or the other that you can assist in developing the community.
Because the Come and help us.
All our life we are all alone.
