Despite efforts by both the federal and state ministries of environment, some states in Nigeria have remained dirty.

In 1973, the United Nations General Assembly and United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) set aside June 5 every year as World Environment Day (WED) to address environmental issues like global warming, deforestation and food shortages among many others.

Considered as one of the greatest annual events, the day aims at raising awareness about the leading issue of environmental sustainability.



Despite efforts by both the federal government and state ministries of environment, some states in Nigeria have remained dirty.

In no particular order, here are the five dirties states in Nigeria;


1. Ekiti state: A recent survey conducted by the Community-led Total Sanitation (CLTS) ranked Ekiti as the state with the highest number of persons who openly defecate in Nigeria. About 1.8 million residents of the state out of a total population of 2.7 million is believed to engage in the menace.

With heaps of waste along the New Ilawe Road (Few kilometres from the state House of Assembly), Ajilosun, Bank road, Oja Oba (Yoruba word meaning "King's market" and other locations in the state, Ekiti is sure one of the dirtiest states in Nigeria.

2. Lagos state: Often referred to as the Nigeria's commercial nerve centre, Lagos state is one of the most populated states in Nigeria, a situation which has stretched its infrastructures such as housing, health care, roads and waste management system beyond limits. The resultant effects is the development of suburbs, slums and ghettos with the poorest environmental conditions within the state.

The Dustbin Estate located in Awodiora, Ajeromi Ifelodun Area which is an expansive shack settlement erected on a heap of refuse located beside a canal, which drains waste, and floodwater out of Ajegunle is a good example.

Despite the activities of the Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA), residents still dump waste in drainages and canals in the state which leads to obstruction of the waterway.

3. Benue state: Also called the "Food basket of the nation," Benue is one of the states with the poorest environmental condition. Makurdi, lacks the features of a modern day state capital. Despite the existence of the popular River Benue, 80 per cent of the city lack potable drinking water. From North Bank, Wurukum, Wadata residents dump waste in drainages, uncompleted buildings and roads.

4. Oyo state: The ancient city of Ibadan is the third most populated city in Nigeria. Like Lagos, its huge population is the major reason for this.

5. Abia state: Popular for the production of over 70 percent of all locally produced goods in Nigeria, Aba (located in Abia state) has been ranked among the dirtiest in the state. Abia is also battling with the case of erosion which constantly destroys roads leading to loss of lives and properties.

Are you ready to discover them? Below is a list of the dirtiest states in no particular order because it is nearly impossible to say which of the areas below are more polluted than others.

Oyo State

People who live in Oyo State should get better waste management system, and this can really help to change the poor situation with pollution and dirt all across its territories. This state has some polluted areas that is an eye-saw and a major risk to the health. Some areas have really poor waste management systems.



Lagos State

Lagos has been dubbed the dirtiest place in Nigeria this year. Aside from the fact that Lagos State is the most populated state in the country and one of the most developed, it has failed to lead in that regard. Lagos recorded some level of cleanliness during the area of former governor Raji Fashola especially when he introduced KAI, But can’t say the same for the present regime. An example of dirty places in Lagos is the popular Dustbin Estate located in Awodiora, Ajeromi Ifelodun Area which has a heap of refuse located beside a canal, which drains waste and floodwater out of Ajegunle.





Anambra State

Anambra is another dirty state in Nigeria that really needs to be kept clean. A visit to one of the main city in Anambra state, Onitsha will shock you as you would be greeted with lumps of waste on the road sides and various street in the town. The inhabitants of Mkpor and Nnewi another town in the state are known for throwing dirts at the popular park in the area thereby causing pollution which has health effects on passersby.



Kano State

Another dirty city in Nigeria is Knao state. Even though Kano is one of the richest Northern states in the country with a large population, the environment is nothing to write home about.



Benue State

Even if Benue is home to one popular rivers in the country, its inhabitants still suffer from water borne disease due to polluted water from dirts and feaces thrown into the river. If you stay in Wurukum or you are a resident of Wadata, you will agree that people dump waste in drainage, road and even uncompleted buildings.

REVEALED: The Tribe With The Dirtiest Women In Nigeria- See Where The Igbos fall

Truth be told, Nigeria is filthy. I can’t be partial on this. If you doubt me, just observe carefully the moment you exit the Lagos airport, dirt decorated along certain roads will bid you welcome. Sadly, Nigeria still faces challenges despite substantial progress made in developing policies and strategies for water supply and sanitation service delivery.

In 2013, statistics showed that about 70 million people, out of the total population are said to lack access to safe drinking water, and over 110 million lack access to improved sanitation while open defecation rates continue to pose grave public health risks. So far, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO), Nigeria ranks low in water and sanitation coverage rates in the world.

If you must know, in Lagos and Ibadan some still carry excreta in buckets popularly called ‘agbepoo’ and as for the market women, it will be of benefit to you if you don’t know what they do behind the scenes if not, you won’t bother patronizing any of them. In some places, the problem of lack of proper toilets is solved by defecating in uncompleted buildings or bushes. Sadly one tribe comes to mention anytime the word dirt is being mentioned in Nigeria. Let’s see the notorious tribes that are said to harbour the most unclean women in Nigeria.

As it stands today it is said that Southeastern girls are the cleanest of the region but Ete (South-South Efik, Calabar etc) ladies are the cleanest of all. Sadly we still have those among them who observe poor hygiene and this has made them earn the number 4 spot on the list of the tribe with the most unclean women.

We hope they keep up the good work in maintaining good personal hygiene and help educate those who still languish and swim in the ocean of dirt every day. Do you think there might be an external influence from another tribe? Just saying though. Let’s look at the next on our list

IGBO

Still known to be clean folks with a high rate of personal hygiene, it will amaze you to know that there are some who still see the need to have a little splash of dirt as they go about their everyday activities. It’s simple if you see an Igbo woman who is dirty, just find out who her friends are, her neighbours are and of course her upbringing. You’re sure to find one factor that has contributed to her newly found fetish. I know it might sound cliche but it’s strange to find an Igbo woman that’s unclean.

Even those who are known to be very unclean find it hard to comprehend how certain Igbo women turn out to be dirty after being known widely as a tribe with clean women. Igbos are known to abhor dirt so much that they can disgrace you publicly for it. I remember when my mum sent me photos of the dirty dishes I left in the sink. Ladies and gentlemen, it was just a plate and cutlery and this woman blew up my phone at work. It was downright embarrassing. So imagine when you see one who is dirty. It is an ABOMINATION.

YORUBA

Please don’t come after me. Myth or not, this tribe has remained the undisputed champion. Even with the level of development, we have seen in some South Western states, many Yoruba women still chose to make living an unhygienic lifestyle. It practically spices up their day.



Although they tend to disagree with this fact, their fellow Yoruba men often attest to it. For instance, popular controversial OAP, Daddy Freeze confirmed this on one of his radio sessions. Not many have been cool with him in recent times but he is all out to speak what he feels is the truth irrespective of whom it might hurt or is involved and this time, he has got some messages for his fans.

Daddy Freeze who once spoke about love and tribalism started a debate which got many talking while he sat back to laugh when he revealed that the best tribe to marry as a Yoruba man is to marry an Igbo lady because they are very loving, caring and clean, unlike the Yoruba ladies. He said;



“I kinda agree…especially since I am Yoruba myself…From my ‘little’ experience, gathered during my university days and early bachelorhood and with body count on both sides, (before I gave my life to Christ), I can, through my own experience, say that Igbo girls are so much cleaner, more respectful, value marriage more, less argumentative and problematic, treat husbands better, are more beautiful, have attractive bodies, are more family oriented, cook better and are much more enterprising than Yoruba ladies.

Also, a Yoruba man married to an Ibo woman was brutally honest, he gave very graphic views about how off-putting it can be dating a Yoruba lady. One among his many examples was about a few Yoruba women he knew living in Brooklyn, NY whereby their baths were caked in fungus and still the women in question didn’t think much of it and would invite friends over. Admittedly, the more educated one gets irrespective of the ethnic group, the better one becomes about personal hygiene and general cleanliness of one’s environment. However, all things considered, Yoruba women remain the second filthiest.

HAUSA

Our Hausa ladies are known to be beautiful and well dressed, I mean the ones who are well to do. As one who schooled in the Northern part of the country, I was shocked to discover that behind all the Hausa expensive perfume, pretty face and pointed noses, loads of dirt was something they adorned themselves with daily. A typical Hausa girl is spoilt and lazy and finds it hard to take care of minor things and must look for someone to tidy up. It’s sad though.



Photo credit: Jumi Travels

They make for such beautiful brides with luscious hair with the most soul-piercing voices but can’t even keep their environment clean. Only a few managed to escape the trend of laziness and dirt. Going further into their environments, I must say, I don’t see any reason why a festival to celebrate dirt isn’t held frequently because, with a historical record of the tribe that has produced the highest number of heads of state and presidents, one would think that by now, the Northern region would be heaven on earth.

Unfortunately, this is not the case and the women don’t seem to care as they are seen going about their normal daily activities living in dirt-filled environments that encroach their homes.

THIS IS IGBOLAND AND THAT IS ANAMBRA´S FULL AERIAL VIEW IN PIX 4.ONE CAN SEE THAT ONLY ABOUT 4% IS PARTLY DEVELOPED
Only Ibadan is more develoed than the entire SE...fact.

I can feel your pain!

sogodihno:


If Igbo lands have good leaders with functioning brain ni, thier land should have been the best in Nigeria, do u know a whole SE is less than the size of just one state(Niger) in the north, in term of land mass, Oyo state alone can swallow 3 to 4 states out of the 5 States in the east, it is easier to develop a small portion of land, compare to bigger one, yet Igbo land is nothing to write about, the only aim of their youth in life is to travel to Lagos.

SpaceTour:


All you do is wasting your time online while your own state of Abia is dilapidated, filthy and worst state in Nigeria. I can only pity you bro because I know how painful it feels to be an indigene of a cursed large village called Abia state

Stop deceiving people here.
