Naturally, Onitsha should be designated as a city for only serious skyscrapers. Infact, the whole cities in the east should consider having a collective master plan on this. The high population density in this area makes this the best option. The Chinese did exactly the same thing and that has helped with providing quality housing for their teeming populatio.

I didn't know if it has the highest number of storey buildings, but I can confirm that it has many storey buildings. But it was due to the fact of limited space. And it makes the city to be fine.

Below is the over all picture from Google map compared to Ibadan city at the bottom of all the SE maps.

From the Google map, you will realise that there is no high population density in the SE states as a whole sir. Development is just concentrated around certain streets and areas. That explains why it is true fact that Igbo population is a minority population and clean data of national demographics even from INEC have since confirmed this.

Those storeyed buildings pictures remind me of Isale Eko family houses especially those around Iga Idungaran. Those are not skycrappers, if you want to see skyscrappers come to Lagos Island and Victoria Island, Lagos.
Even Lekki, Ikoyi, Ikeja and Yaba still has more skyscrappers than all you are showing there sir.
My advice to the South East states governments including Anambra state is for the state government to improve security in those expanse of bare unoccupied places and encourage people to move there. There is so much undeveloped spaces because the population is small despite the small land mass.

Okay sir.
Below is a satelite image still showing far more places which development can reach but yet to be developed.

The storeyed buildings may not really be necessary or just be replicated in those unoccupied areas if there is enough security and human population in Anambra.
The real issue is security and low population.

If you look at the Oshogbo satelite image you will realise the issue with the Anambra built up area is not really about storey buildings but low human population.

Zoom very well. Those places outside the city are densely populated and semi urban. These are places where low income groups reside thereby avoiding creation of slums in the city. You need to visit and stop relying on Google

You are referring to just few streets in Onitsha and Anambra as a whole but when you compare size of built up area in Ibadan and Oshogbo from the Satelite images, you can never even refer to Anambra state as urbanized .

There are just few built up areas and the rest green and unoccupied in Anambra despite having small land mass, mostly bare and unoccupied but Ibadan and Oshogbo are showing large areas of built up spaces to prove it is urbanized. These two cities of Oshogbo and Ibadan are equally very large so if Anambra that is small in land mass still has a lot of unoccupied areas, then it is low populated and low urbanized. From Satelite image, Abakaliki seems to be even more urbanized

I did not create the satelite images. I am just drawing your attention to the fact. It has nothing to do with emotion.

To even think that ONITSHA ISN'T THE CAPITAL OF ANAMBRA STATE

THERE IS NO PLACE IN THE WHOLE OF SOUTH EAST THAT YOU WILL DRIVE FOR 3MINUTES WITHOUT SEEING CONCENTRATED BUILDINGS
