I nervously stand outside your bedroom door, contemplating for a second what I am about to do. I entered your home under false pretences.

I convince you I was stranded and you so generously offer me your guest room for the evening. I wonder if you are always this nice or if, perhaps, you feel for me what I feel for you.
I wonder if your kindness is just because I am your girlfriend’s best friend, or maybe you actually do feel your heartstrings tug when you imagine we will be under the same room together for the night.
I consider knocking. Maybe if I knock and ask for your body politely, you will offer yourself to me. I feel my p#ssy give a little shudder, imagining you teasing it, touching it, fucking me.

I dismiss the idea of knocking and simply open the door. Your bedroom is almost dark. The only source of light is from the moon shining dimly through your window. I can only make out your silhouette on the bed and I can hear your deep, yet gentle breathing as you sleep.
I walk slowly towards the bed. You are lying on your back, your legs sprawl carelessly on the bed. I gently join you in bed. Straddle you so I am resting on your waist. You open your eyes slowly, perhaps wondering where the weight on your body was coming from.

You peer up at me through incompletely opened eyes, watching me curiously as your brain try to make sense of what you are looking at.
You attempt to get up, but I gently push your shoulder so you lay back down. I place my face close to yours and kiss you. You do not kiss me back.

I don't know what the fuss is about. Onitsha for example should not be a surprise because the land mass of the main Onitsha city is relatively very very small so i would be shocked if it wasnt already built up by now, compared to much larger cities in Nigeria.

Yea... very true.

I think we should refer to them as Densely populated areas

Onitsha has a very large industrial layout called Harbour Industrial Layout. In this layout there are more expatriate than Nigerian nationals, which means that this city has seen the influx of more foreigners in the recent past.

Developed in which sense?
All the children are in good school with adequate number of teachers who are well paid promptly?
They have reliable and comfortable public transport used by most residents?
What of 24/7 electricity
They have tap water instead of drinking traces of their own shiit from boreholes in the same compound as their septic soak away tanks?

Onitsha host more high-rises than any city in Nigeria, having two skyscraper in middle of slums don't really make sense to me, last I visited Ibadan more than 85% of Coco house apartments are empty no tenants, especially last floor to fourth floor, same with Marina and most areas in Lagos, outside banks headquarters, majority of the skyscrapers are empty

Building skyscraper in the east is not problem, major issue fully utilization.

Onitsha below

High-Rise Buildings? Looking for them...

The same people arguing blindly against the Onitsha status are the same sophisticated mor0ns urging you on each time you display your wanton idiocy of insulting and denigrating your fellow Igbos on this forum
