Traffic in your so called mega city is so scanty because everyone has run away from the city. Only houses that look like coffin where Igbos that have fled to SW for opportunity come to be buried.

For those counting development by building duplex, I laugh. Where are your industries or work for the average person? It’s not by going all over the world to sell drugs so you oppress your village people in December. Yet nothing works in the East. By the way, for hot climate, bungalow is the best. Go around the world and check it, except you don’t have enough land. People who build duplex abd mansions that block the flow of air should pay special fees.

What's more important is why is this topic giving you sifia pains😄

Orlu should do more in road and building planning,nice one OP

More of a conurbation than a city because it is emerging out of various towns and their outskirts being built up with houses. This is a huge problem that Southeasterners need to address because the Federal Government don't care about us. If this sort of rapid urbanisation should occur in any other part of Nigeria the FG in collaboration with UN would have done something to forestall the emergence of uncontrollable slum. Southeast needs a development commission based almost solely on private sector initiatives where experienced and well to do sons and daughters in diaspora bring their wealth of experience to help her development. Since this conurbation is going to swallow Onitsha, Nnewi, Ihiala, Orlu, Nkwerre, Ekwulobia, Awka and Owerri it means almost 2/3rd of present day Imo and Anambra States.

Why are you adding Asaba?

When did Asaba become part of South East?

Oga, Asaba is Igbo. That's our identity. We don't care about your south south or whatever nomenclature. Asaba is Igbo. Enough of the divide and rule.

Simple. No long tori

The full potential of the south East can only come when we exit Nigeria. You can build your own port, all companies in Nigeria will have to build a South East branch or leave the market, more revenues for government for huge projects., millions of jobs due to new industries starting, immigration job, military job, police jobs, civil service. Mehn it will favour us 25 -35 years old Igbos. I wish it would happen now.

All the local government that are in this cities have alot of industries, mention one local government area in this Urban space that doesn't have up to 5 big company?
Traffic, I laugh in China
owerri airport that serve the city, is more busier than all airport in SW combined (excluding Lagos), I wouldn't like to argue about traffic because onitsha and nnewi traffic alone no be here, people travel as far as Cameron, niger just to buy goods from onitsha, travel and see

Exactly we don't need another Lagos, We need at least Abuja or newyork
Rochas really tried in dualization of major roads in orlu, also owerri rapid expansion was his handwork

According to recent data released by different international bodies i.e mckinsey,
Studies shows that they largest built up area and also the Latest emerging mega city in Nigeria
Is the onitsha metropolis area (onitsha/Nnewi/ihala/olru axis)
Anyone with access to Google map can easily see how Nigerians have almost built up the entire area from onitsha in Anambra state down to orlu in IMO state, and are still building more
This new emergin megacity is 2x the size of Lagos (Nigeria biggest city as of today) and 8th times bigger than port Harcourt, the upcoming already have 3 airport serving it, with one being the 4th busiest airport in Nigeria aside the Lagos, pH and abj airport
this new upcoming megacity currently being administered by two state has alot of private, government own institutions of learning also
Alot of real estate development is going around in the upcoming urban metropolis, the major cities and sub urban areas that have clustered together to form this metropolis are onitsha (being the principal city) oba, nnewi, ekwulobia,ihala, orlu, Nkwere other notable towns that has been merged together includes obosi, awka, nkpor, to mention but a few
It's also projected that the City by 2040, with the current ongoing expansion rate the city will hold a population of 30 million people, McKinsey predict that this onitsha metropolis and Lagos will become heavy dominant in human development. It's also expected to further merge with owerri the capital city of imo state and Asaba the capital city in Delta to form a very big metropolis
Below are current picture from goggle map

You didn't answer my question.

By virtue of recognised and gazetted geographical regions and settings, why are you labeling Asaba as part of South East in your permutations?

I have no business arguing the differences between a metropolis and a mega city with you. But under what guise are you including Asaba in the South East? Because you have Igbo speaking indigenes in Asaba? Because Asaba and Onitsha are both seperated by just the Niger river?

Please, kindly stop perpetuating mischief and misinformation. If you want to achieve the metropolis status by combining cities in the East through infrastructural development, by all means, have at it. But kindly keep Asaba out of your calculations. Don't cause problems that you may be unable to solve tomorrow.

Geopolitical zones are not gazetted. They are not recognized by constitution. SW are using zones to deceive themselves. States are the official federating units

Obsession
If you're been honest to yourself
You know that you and your brothers are the obsessed ones, your brothers are opening mutiple threads up and down, igbo this,igbo that, they claim Igbo,l sympathizers, Igbo lovers, Igbo advicer, Igbo mockers,igbo haters

The see igbos in there dream
Most of your unexposed brothers thinks all Igbo people leaves in SW, meanwhile is just a fraction, as we already have an urban built-up space as twice as big as Lagos, and I want us to avoid the owambe lack of planning mistakes you people did in our emerging megacity,

It's not about the pictures, is about the message, (I used pictures that where easier for me to get) also your brother thinks everyone is leaving Igbo land while in sharp contrast our cities are expanding at a massive rate, most of them don't even know how big onitsh metro is the keep onitsha is just the 52km ancient town the British Left

The Google map is the something new. A large swath of land is emerging as an cornubation twice the size of Lagos by landmass recognized by many international organizations and Google map. That is why population of Onitsha metro is larger than population of Anambra state. This sudden merger of numerous towns is a confirmation of rapid economic growth unlike what your propaganda machines have be using to decieve unexposed people from your side

Exactly a development commission chaired by someone like umahi or rochas
The IMO area has better infrastructure courtesy of rochas, the dualized road he built in orlu and the market help in the urbanisation of orlu another town that rapidly change is onuimo (a suburb of umuahia,) immediately the umuahia market was demolished rochas rushed and built a standard market there, today everywhere done open for there

You are making a point though

Onitsha is the HQ of Agberos in Nigeria

Onitsha has the largest numbers of Slums in Africa

Onitsha the home of beggers
