Ghen! Ghen! This par caught my attention no be small A recent study of Onitsha’s water pollution found more than 100 petrol stations in the city, often selling low-quality fuel, dozens of unregulated rubbish dumps, major fuel spills and high levels of arsenic, mercury, lead, copper and iron in its water. The city’s many metal industries, private hospitals and workshops were all said to be heavy polluters emitting chemical, hospital and household waste and sewage. 4 Likes |

Onitsha as a city does not even have up to 20 filling stations, not to talk of 100. This is the reason the report in it's entirety is only fit for dustbin..LOL Twistaray: |

5% and half of the remaining 45% are dirty places according to that report ; God bless southwest no be small...if you think this report is sham then build6 flats let out two to the 5% and 2 to the northern people and give the yoruba the remaining 2 and you had be surprised that some people(not mentioning names though,check this report and you can ascertain them) will be a pain in the ass when it comes to everything(environment,bills,compliance et.al) and yeah no be only them they live for onitscha, aba et.al but ishe ile ni nko ni de ta... 6 Likes |

Because I am a resident, I know the city inside-out. We have barely less 20 filling stations here, so why did the report say over 100? It's very fishy! Twistaray: |

“It is difficult to get accurate measurements in Africa. You can get super-high readings, but ideally the measurements should be done over a year to include different seasons and times of day. The reading in Onitsha may be representative but not altogether reliable,” said a WHO spokeswoman. Unreliable report only fit for trash. Little wonder trashy people from SW are swimming on the trashy unreliable report. 1 Like |

I think [WHO] is based in Switzerland if am not wrong, while I am here in Onitsha. They sat in Switzerland and wrote that we have over a 100 filling stations whereas as a resident I know that we have less than 20. That alone has breached the integrity of the report among other things. Twistaray: |

hensben: Another Yoruba sentimental being. One minute, Igbos are accused of being too tribal and only care about their follow Igbos or perceived friends, and the next, they a're accused of being unable to bridge divides and form a common front. The truth is that Yorubas are obsessed with Ndiigbo, the exact reason they seldom sound rational whenever a matter have to do with Igbos. 1 Like |

Some people really don't understand English. If some of you had taken time to read and assimilate you'll know that there's a difference between a place being filthy, dirty, contaminated and polluted. |

madridsta007: Are you hign on weed or something. Have you ever read where I ask you not to leave Nigeria and form your own country. In fact, i am pro-biafra and i want all of us in Nigeria to go our separate ways. So please if you want to leave Nigeria, do us all the favor of not just talking about it but actually doing it. Start by leaving the south west for starters. Kapish 3 Likes |
