Onitsha has the worst PM10 levels in the world, according to a new report
Four of the worst cities in the world for this were located in Nigeria -- Africa's largest economy
The WHO urges all cities to start monitoring their pollution levels

(CNN)The word "Africa" often evokes romantic images of elephants crossing the Kalahari, thundering water at Victoria Falls, or panoramic views from Table Mountain.
But an increasingly common sight for Africans -- especially those in Nigeria -- is that of smog, rubbish and polluted water, according to a new report.
Four of the worst cities in the world for air pollution are in Nigeria, according to data released by the World Health Organization (WHO).
Onitsha -- a city few outside Nigeria will have heard of -- has the undignified honor of being labeled the world's most polluted city for air quality, when measuring small particulate matter concentration (PM10).

The statement read in part, “Let me state very clearly that yes I was sanctioned by the Georgia Bar Disciplinary Board for professional misconduct and negligence due to an unfortunate ethical violation that took place about 10 years ago in 2003.

“There are no ifs, buts or ands about it. However here are the facts, verifiable facts.

“I returned to Nigeria in 2002 to prepare for party primaries and general elections.

“Prior to leaving the US, I had left instructions with my para-legal to close out pending files when due. He had instructions to pay my client $25,000 whenever her cheque was sent in.

“The cheque did not come in until January 2003 as the records show and at which time I had already been in Nigeria for over six months.

“Unfortunately, after paying in the cheque as instructed, he withdrew the money again as instructed with cheques I had given him for sundry matters and he never paid the client but made away with it.

“This did not come to my knowledge until I received a letter from the Georgia Bar in 2005.

“The letter was addressed to my Lagos address which I had left with the Georgia Bar as my contact address for any housekeeping matter that may arise after I might have left.
