Workch:
i added ogidi, ogbunike and umunya.
248km square, google cannot lie.
dont cry because it does not favour your sentiments

And we should clap for you because of the addition? International organizations have added beyond that so who are you and why does your opinion matter?

Ofodirinwa:
It is believable, Owerri is the main city in the SE right now. The growth rate over the past few years has been unreal. Aba has grown by more slowly.

This thread is not an good way of gauging city size though

Aba and Enugu are the largest SE cities while Onitsha is the largest urban metro

Ofodirinwa:
He even included Nkpor. Ask Nkpor people if they are Onitsha people

Urban Metro has nothing to with that

Workch:
okay, I will redo that of Onitsha but I won't add Oba to Onitsha, it's not part of Onitsha

Whatever you do is irrelevant. You are not an authority in the matter. Google, Demographia and Mackenzie have decided

BossGerald:
So you didn't see oluyole inside the circled area on the map??

I thought it was that big like you guys portray here, even the whole areas outside the circled part of the map are uninhabited unlike onitsha.

Hmm

That's the difference between SE and SW. SE has populated countryside. SW cities are surrounded by empty bush. The countryside towns in SE makes small cities have huge Urban metropolitan areas. This is what we have been trying to make SW folks understand

Workch:
How do you mean?
Should I be adding Abagana, Awka and Nnewi to Onitsha? 0

I even added Atani to Onitsha, it's still debatable because Atani is a standalone town in Ogbaru local government

But you can add Ikeja to Lagos. Be deceiving yourself. Are you greater than other well established international authorities? Even your Google map is clear

mrvitalis:
Your biased for Onitsha was just too obvious sha... It obviously everyone can clearly see the whole Onitsha metropolitan area and you covered 30% of it max

Thank you. These people keep deceiving themselves despite Demographia deciding the extent of Onitsha metro largest in Nigeria by landmass

Workch:
9. owerri - 302km square
10. Enugu - 225km square
11. Aba - 217km sqaure
12. kaduna 392km square

Stop phooling around. You are just deceiving yourself

Workch:
5. Port Harcourt - 436 km square
6. Benin city - 613km square
7. Akure - 211km square
8. Onitsha- 150km square

See how you cut off small section of Onitsha

Ttalk:
I've always known this

Una hard to educate walahi. Onitsha urban is larger than Lagos

Workch:
This is the landmass of some major cities in Nigeria according to area their urban settlement.

1. Ibadan - 768km square.
2. Lagos (Minus Ikorodu, Epe and Badagry) - 909km square
3. Ikorodu - 238km square.
4. Ilorin - 293 km sqaure

Where are those allocating 3000 square kilometers to Ibadan?

nairalanda1:
Seriously, you guys should stop hating people. Look beyond your village, old man. The world is wider and more wonderful than you think.

That's their strategy to divert attention away from Tinubu's failures

billante:
And they said the south east is deserted.

The traffic jam there they even rival Lagos own

You de mind people we never leave their brown roof region?

Woodshot:
You saw them on a faceful place but couldn't engage only to come to a faceless place to do what exactly?

Cowardice

AviatorMoney:
Ekpeye has no understanding of any Igbo, standardized or not. Unless they learnt it or live together. Avoid false information.
Have you live there or been there before?

I lived in ula upata. Ahoada. They have Eze Upata

arcnomec:
If you're truly from Ndoni and say Ogba speak Igbo then you really need to get your head examined.
I'm a full blooded Omoku man and I can tell you for a fact that we don't speak it,but Ogba language

Ogba dialect

AviatorMoney:
Can you or any other Igbo person understand Ekpeye language because they have Eze as their kings title?

Can you understand Ikwo in Ebonyi? Can ijaw understand each other's dialects? But can Ekpeye understand standardized igbo? The answer is yes

Gajagojo:
That is your own declaration

It is wishful thinking
That is an idea that appeals to your fantasies

You lack logical reasoning. You know nothing bro

SmartyPants:
Looking at that attire alone it is clear these peopke must have cultural ties to the Edo. Unless they recently adopted this attire. Also Ogba is an edoid sounding word is there any word like that in Igbo?

The attire is for the king alone. This is same in Delta Igbos. The king's attire is Benin influenced but the general public don't dress like that. Why are you not interested in his name and first language? Do you understand the criteria used in classifying ethnicities at all?

As for the name, why does it sound similar to Ogbaru in Anambra that shares boarders with it? Where are the Ogbas in Benin?

Ttipsy:
so why is it obi of onitsha instead of oba?

Also why is obi of Onitsha Nnaemeka Achebe, same name with chinua Achebe from Ogidi

AviatorMoney:
The title becomes irrelevant because its not Obi, Nze, Ozo etc.
You Igbo's are really shitty.

If he is nze, Ozo, obi Tonye Pepple, and his first language is not igbo, definitely he is not igbo irrespective of title

Gajagojo:
What is the distance from Omoku to Qtani?

Also what is th distance from Omoku to Rumuigbo

Omoku is not Ogba. And atani is not the southernmost end of Ogbaru. Meanwhile you can tell us the distances

AviatorMoney:
The title becomes irrelevant because its not Obi, Nze, Ozo etc.
You Igbo's are really shitty.

There is no nze, Ozo etc in Nsukka land for example.
Title differ for different igbo subgroups

Gajagojo:
Photo land belongs to Eleme people
That is the history
Oyigbo is not an Ibo word

Okay. Arochukwu land belong to Ibibio too. I'm talking about Oyigbo people not land

AncientAlien:
This is hate speech. Let learn to stay away from this, both offline and online.

You will never hear any logical argument from them. Just bleating like goats

AviatorMoney:
Get lost and stop dragging my people into your Igbo shit. Are u the one to tell a people where to belong and choose. Are u not ashamed that they are not ready to be part of you??

Olodo. Empty head

Gajagojo:
Are you?

Oyigbo (Rivers) and Asa (Abia) are like twin brothers separated by Imo River. Stop arguing what you are not familiar with

SOFTSKILL:
No contest on that just to remind ourselves of the etymology because of the great revisionist historians who love putting the cart before the horse

My own be say, ogba people are Igbos. They can borrow the title of their traditional rulers from anywhere and it doesn't change anything

Gajagojo:
Can you tell us which Local government area you are talking about Let us start there

Ogba/Ndoni/Egbema LGA (ONELGA) in Rivers State shares boundary with Ogbaru LGA in Anambra

AviatorMoney:
He is the Oba of Ogba-Land

He is Nwachukwu Nnam obi. Whatever title he chooses is irrelevant

Gajagojo:
I am asking you to clarify your statement are you saying Ogbaland is closer to Anambra than Port Harcourt?

Yes sir

Gajagojo:
Oyigbo is Eleme land

Are you sure you are okay?
