Johnnyessence:
And you Fulani man is licking buhari ass.

Johnnyessence:
and that's why Aregbesola failed woefully in his government by owing more than 15 months salaries before leaving office on November 27 last year . Tinubu presence always depleting the state treasury .

Onitsha, World's Dirtiest City

Approaching Okpoko market through thick smog on the back of an okada (motorcycle taxi), the natural reaction is to cover your nose to protect yourself from the dust storm – but the effort is futile.

When a lorry zooms past, kicking up yet another red cloud of dirt, a trader turns the head of a sleeping toddler away from the road, a protective act that is as poignant as it is pointless.

This is a typical day in the southern Nigerian port city of Onitsha – which last year gained notoriety when it was ranked the worst city in the world for the staggering levels of PM10 particulate matter in its air.

Onitsha’s mean annual concentration was recorded at 594 micrograms per cubic metre by the World Health Organization – massively exceeding the WHO’s annual guideline limit for PM10s of 20μg/m3.

PM10 refers to coarse dust particles between 10 and 2.5 micrometres in diameter, while PM2.5s are even finer and more dangerous when inhaled, settling deep in a person’s lungs. Sources of both include dust storms, gases emitted by vehicles, all types of combustion, and industrial activities such as cement manufacturing, construction, mining and smelting. Onitsha scores highly on most of the above – as do other rapidly growing Nigerian cities such as Kaduna, Aba and Umuahia, all of which also featured in the WHO’s 20 worst offenders for PM10s.

In Onitsha’s very busy Okpoko market, my air quality monitor registers 140 for PM10s and 70 for PM2.5s – all way over recommended healthy levels, but still nothing compared to the readings triggered in other parts of this densely populated commercial and industrial hub.

The entire vicinity of the market is perpetually dusty, as wood-sellers saw lumber into different shapes and sizes. The air here is made worse by all the fine sand particles that fly off the back of trucks as they visit one of the many dredging companies on the bank of the River Niger, just behind the wood market.

BeautifulMind2:
Ignoramus here is Igbo land can you compare it with any of your backward states

adem30:
That's a true Leader and not a SLAVE MASTER LIKE SARAKI.

You dare not talk to Saraki while standing, you must be on your kneel.

Even a Serving Senator was not left out.

Bodingo:
Osun-Oshogbo man, face your state that is in OLX waiting for buyer since the days of Adam and Eve.

Ryabcool:
but wetin concern West for this talk again?

chiedozie198100:
what a disgusting soul u r.

MyVILLAGEpeople:
Kudos to Ambode. I just wished he was given another term. But Tinubu decides who becomes the governor of Lagos state.

kayfra:
After a lie is repeated too many times, then people no longer question it. That's how most of them end up delusional with the empty boasts on almost everything

kayfra:


Oyinbo to je smarties. Make iPob no ruin dem reputation

yemaldo:
This is a big lie, that article is far from the truth, 4 billion dollars in 1956 haba

kayfra:
"Reportedly". You see that qualification in the article. Na someone like you report am to them na

kayfra:
iPob Bureau of Statistics

The Igbo is full of arrogance and braggadocios. He is always praising himself. He is not humble at all; his empty pride gives folk the impression that he is very childish; mature people are not proud and certainly do not boast about their powers.



If you are around the Igbo all you hear are boasts about his real and imaginary accomplishments. He is very vainglory seeking; he is title crazy

Have you ever seen a humble Igbo man who does not present himself as god almighty himself even though he is a starving man? If you listened to these people boast you would think that they are as powerful as the gods are supposed to be!

Your taunts will never make us clamour for presidency in 2023. Whine all you can, we don't care. Most Yoruba's hate the thought of an igbo man as President, while the hausas fear that if the igbo man takes the presidency, he will divide Nigeria. We have accepted our fate, and we are not bothered about it.

No Igbo man has been president since ironsi, and even with the war, we have faired better than every other tribe in Nigeria in almost if not all human development indices at the moment. So why should we trouble ourselves with presidency. It is for you Yorubas to lose sleep over it.

Gandollar:
They are pained because of your ignorance. PDP already zoned the 2023 presidency to the north.
