Kennydoc:
Why are you finding it difficult to understand simple things? The rating was done simply based on particulate matter in the air, PM10. It's not about dirtiness, cos Riyadh the Capital of Saudi Arabia isn't dirtier than Ibadan, Abeokuta or Osogbo.
Even if Onitsha is very dirty, you will agree with me that this rating would change if the analysis is only based on environmental hygiene.
Hope you've read the UN article about about south east being the safest place to live in Nigeria?

Safe in what aspect? Maybe you want to specify that?

You don't seem to understand the points i was trying to make at all.

As it stands the report can be liken to facts until it proven otherwise.
Ever asked why the reporter/anylist had nothing to say about lagos,osun, ekiti et Al despite the fact that he had to travel/drive all the way from lagos down to Onitsha.
So the question is,why Onitsha and Aba of all state in the federation?

Well, as for whatever measure or logic you chose to apply the point here is, is Onitsha the only state in the whole of SE/nigeria?
And why other measure would W.H.O have used to measure and conclude that Onitsha is the most? Polluted? State-as a result of unfriendly environment also know as polluted/pollution "?

Kennydoc:
You don't understand. Onitsha was rated high only based on PM10 which simply talks about particulate matter in the air. The rating wasn't based on household waste and sewage. The report didn't say Onitsha had the highest release of household wastes and sewage in Nigeria. Such a study that would analyse that hasn't been done. They only stated all those to add 'flesh' to the study, but we have earlier been told that it was a measure of particulate matter in the air that put Onitsha as number 1.
Is my point so difficult to understand?

What else would W.H.O have used to measure pollution, unfriendly/chaotic environment ?
Listen, you don't expect a whole W.H.O to use the word " the most dirties" city do you?

Like I wrote easier on unfriendly or dirty environment is not often refer to as dirty but polluted.

Kennydoc:
So what about the point in bold shows that Onitsha is dirty? It was solely on account of the PM10 that Onitsha was ranked the most polluted, not the dirtiest. Those points you highlighted were just made to buttress their point about the pollution in Onitsha.

Maybe you should check your dictionary for the meaning of the word " Polluted".
Here Is part of the bolded , provided "and household waste and sewage.

I understand that this is hard for you to swallow but, what can we do to amend these?
Too late bro

Kennydoc:
Most backward in what sense please? Show me any article that denotes the backwardness of the south east as compared to the other geopolitical zones with regards to Health, Education, Social services and overall standard of living.

You clearly lack comprehension skills. It's a big pity. Read the report again, bigot!



Put your brain to use. The report didn't talk about dirtiness. Umuahia isn't dirtier than Lagos.
Even Riyadh isn't dirtier than Lagos or Ibadan.



The report has nothing to do with development. Okene (Kogi State) for example isn't on the list, but we know it is far less developed than Onitsha. What about Riyadh the Capital City of Saudi Arabic which is the 6th on the list. Is it also less developed than Osogbo?



Use your eyes. They are not there for decoration. Your brain is for reasoning. Use it.



This one go school so? Don't you understand the difference between air pollution and dirtiness? Do you lack comprehension skills?
He's even impersonating Igbos on this forum with his fake Igbo moniker, and couldn't even wait to revert back to his original moniker before releasing the venoms. Shame!
Of late, many shameless beings have been using Igbo monikers to insult Igbos on this forum. You guys should be ashamed of yourselves. Cc Ebukaobi, VivianUdeogu, etc.




Don't mind them. They are too blind and dumb to understand what the study was all about.

Nobody is even considering the fact that Onitsha is a major gateway to the entire south east, therefore most of the vehicles coming into the south east especially from the Lagos and other parts of the south west must enter and exit the south east through Onitsha.
Why won't Onitsha be that polluted considering how small it is in size compared to the activities going on in it?

Oh really?
Even without the facts up there we all know that Aba and Onitsha are both filled with filths.

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.

Read again abeg and until a contrary report is ssay otherwise the one above remains.

MChaze25:
its not as dirty as yoloba people.
Lol

Oh really

A whole " World health Organisation"says una dirty here you are referring others dirty people.
Una better do something about t asap
Abi , Yoloba man own W.H.O abit

asha90:
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.

Hahahahahahaha

Eyah

I love your personal stats and research

asha90:
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!

Hahahaha

I guess you know little or nothing about W.H.O.
If that will make you happy

asha90:
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

And you know these because?
Make una deceive una sef
Ntor
Do you even know W.H.O at all?
Yey dey smell

MetaHuman:
I give up

Don't mind dude, here,this part says it all ,jareee

The SW does well in both statistical data and is probably the region that is trying the hardest to reduce its dependence of oil. If the Yorubas contributed so little to SW GDP, why can't other tribes replicate the SW development in their own states? Why is it that 4 Yorubas are in the top ten richest Nigerian list when Yorubas only make up 21% of the population?

iblawi:
This is why igbos are too dumb to rule this country. Deposit of cash in bank doesn't mean you are rich dummy. A trader deposit cash in bank daily and withdraws money daily fool. Igbos are traders they buy and sell on a daily basis.

If I deposit N5000 today and withdraws N4000 tomorrow and deposit the N4000 back tomorrow doesn't mean I have N9000 dummy. But on bank records you have done transaction worth N9000 you dumb trader. This is why you can never succeed anywhere you don't find Yoruba.

I have to use Naira to explain so that you can get my point.

Bros you get time oo




United Nations' Multi Dimensional Poverty Index

The United Nations' Global Multi-Dimensional Poverty Index has three dimensions and 10 indicators in estimating Overall Poverty. Each dimension is equally weighted, each indicator within a dimension is also equally weighted, and added. It uses 10 indicators to measure poverty in three dimensions: Education, Health and Living standards. This report was Published in June 2015, and is based on data collected on years between 2004 and 2014.
According to the MPI Report, as at 2010, 46% of Nigerians lived below the national poverty line (Only 28% in Urban areas, and near 70% in The rural). Although a Report by the World bank, released in 2014, showed that only 33% of Nigerians could be considered Poor.

Igbos...aka, cunning tribe

See waya ooooo

IamAtribalist:
All I see here is that the SW (Yoruba) region is the richest region in Nigeria. Now, if you are an IPOB you will minus Lagos so that the stats can favor you.

Bro, those ipod yoots are so pathetic.
Can you just imagine that,how can somebody in his right state of mind exempt me,millions of yorubas in lagos even went as far as saying ibo developed lagos yet their region contribute less or nothing to the nation's GDP?

Ilovemystate:
How can region that controls lots of cash be high in poverty index Use your brain son

No. You should use your brain instead.

The stats is purely base on savings,account holders and amount of transactions.
No. You use your brain.

Use you brain infact you should be embarrassed by the the so call " riches" stats considering the fact that SS isn't up to the population of SE/igbo. Use your brain how come they surpass SE, does that mean that they are more rich individuals in SS than SE or SS more populated than SE

Abeg go borrow brain.
This is why I don't often engage ipod yoot

Yorubanews:
How did you get about the stats? Oh yea, Igbos and their lies.

God bless you

Honestly often I wonder how those Ipod yoot reason.

Yorubanews:
The Lagos state and Osun Houses of Assembly have advocated renewed commitment to Yoruba Language.

The assemblies in pursuant of this goal called on the government and other stakeholders to ensure compulsory teaching of Yoruba language in both private and public schools in all Yoruba speaking states.

Speakers of the two states, Honourable Mudashir Obasa and Najeem Salaam made the call when the former visited Osogbo to invite the latter to a Stakeholder Forum on compulsory teaching of Yoruba as an indigenous language in all schools in the state.

Representing the Lagos Speaker, the Chairman House Committee on Education, Lanre Ogunyemi said, it is important to enhance the teaching and learning of Yoruba language in schools in Yoruba speaking states.

According to him, the National Policy on Education was apt about the teaching of indigenous languages, saying, Yoruba language was not being valued as it happened in other climes like Europe, China, America among others.

“As a state and as a region, we must ensure that our language did not go into extinction, for this reason we must entrench it in all our schools.

“We have observed that in most of our schools, it is either they do not teach or have teachers to teach Yoruba language”

“The National Policy on Education said a student shall learn language of their environment, which is Yoruba in the South West region, Hausa in the North and Igbo in the East, meaning that it is compulsory that our children must learn their indigenous languages”, he said.


http://www.nigeriatoday.ng/2016/05/lagos-osun-assemble-advocate-for-yoruba-language/

This is a welcome development. If the whites are learning, speaking our language why shouldn't be proud of our language?

It is people like u that are addicted to Chinese films and Telemundo's Subtitled/"Voice impositions". Even if you don't understand yoruba be understanding enough to know it can be subtitled. Am Proudly Yoruba yet I delight in learning Ibo and other languages. It doesn't reduce my being yoruba or my person rather I can understand others better.

Igbos are too afraid of Fulanis.
My brother na so. 2 days ago, they old us Fulanis fled. How person go flee with cow?
Fulanis aren't done with Enugu o. They're showing us the real coward of the South.

Heard they are regrouping to attack another state in SE but I pray they don't prevail in as much as we don't seem to get along with akpu eating tribe

ikarm17:
My brother. See the nincompoo comparing ancient times to digital times. Fulanis can never displace a community of 2000 in Yorubaland like they did in Enugu. They displaced these cowards just so their cows can eat

This is not a laughing matter.

I can just seen dem ipob chestbeaters running away with their cassava sticks

I tell ya!

One would thought that as heavy and hairy as they are those skinny herdsmen dare not stand against akpu eaters.

Just this morning the same herdsmen invaded another farm in umuahia can you imagine the guts?

Are Ibo people still begging their businessmen to invest in the SE? Who wants to spend money on a dead cow?

You guys are something else..
