doublecross: but it is the truth. i can not cope in any other state in nigeria apart from lagos.

antartica: Nigeria look so impoverished.No place in nigeria seems to look like normal human beings inhabits it,even university campuses.

LeoMax: So clap hands for yourself, who was supposed to buildd Onitsha in the first place ? Me ? Is that an excuse for people to still in deathtraps like that ugly building ? Be sensible

PROUD-IGBO:


^^^You should remember that Onitsha is a city built entirely by individual Igbo effort with no federal presence or stolen oyel/federal money- so try and put things in context when analyzing. Besides, the pics show only the area where the old building was located and not large swathes of Onitsha metropolis.

@Topic: Onitsha has so many if these old buildings (esp' near the main Market area) which were built in the 60's and 70's. Some are subjects of litigation or jointly owned by the 3rd or 4th generation of a family, hence maintainace suffers.

Though i do wish the same fate would befall Murtala Int'l old terminal. That would make them do the right thing and build a 21st century Terminal and not settle for the patch-patch work they''re presently engaged in.

kayusfit: Gej is the cause of all this. I hope the house will impeach him cos of this building. A slow and daft president. When our darling OBJ was president, no boko haram and building collapse. Niger delta fool. Tinubu for 2015. ACN for life

bakila:

Disrespect to planing control and regulations have led to the incidence in this thread and other parts of the country.

ibietela2: Wooooow this is great

jason123: On a side note, is this the Onitsha people talk about on NL ??

No part of Nigeria is developed apart from Lagos, Rivers (PH), AkwaIbom and Abuja!!!

9jadelta:

akwa ibom? Where u wan put kano?

Though i still agree with u... These places still need oil money to build dose dirty slum they call home... Hehehehehehe

Johnpaul2k2:
where are you from sef
this Lagos everybody is calling all the time is the afford of Igbos
i believe you need to know that.
One building just failed down since the origin of Nigeria
[size=16pt]How many has Collapsed in Lagos i think i lost Counts [/size]

aurenflani: This ur statement is really out of touch with Nigeria's reality. I mean which Nigerian town was built with oil money besides Lagos and Abuja? But for your enlightenement purpose let me inform you that [b]Igbos are the highest number of ppl you can find working and doing contracts in the oil sector [/b]so d question now is - Is oil money going to building the east? Yes and yes sir.

chipmunkey: I hope it's not Dangote cement.

Very dirty environment.


Chair, the man is so poor that he had to take his only possession (bed) out before the building collapse.

manny4life: Unfortunate that things happen... SORRY to the victims of this mishap

As much as what Jason123 said was inappropriate, but damn, how many people are going off on him? Please people, take it easy, and Jason123, please try and stay away from tribal comments that will lead pages like this into several e-tribal hate.

cjotech:

U must be d dumbest fool on nl for saying d above.
Don't they have worst slums in d places u mentioned above.

If I must ask further, how old are u sef!

blink182: You thought onitsha has the appearance of Shoprite. The town Iƨ̣̣̣̇̇̇ one huge garbage dump site. You need a stomach of steel.

Ileke-IdI:

Funny how this picture looks exactly like some part of Ibadan, yet some ppl will come here to post selective pictures and tell us that SE is New York.

Small exposure.

Montalo: goat! Wia n wia v u been in onitsha? Talkin ish..

Odenigbo Aroli:

Like i said earlier, you will have a better day if you will just shut the Zap up ! I am really trying very hard to be civil here; If you want to say something about the Igbos like I know you do you should come out and do it instead of hiding behind this news to attack the Igbos. BE A MAN!

shymmex: Wow! This can't be Onitsha, the most developed city in Nigeria.
