Onitsha is a true testament of the doggedness of the Igbo man who built up that city with no government assistance

Demographia has confirmed what I have been saying. Anambra-Imo axis and Nsukka area have unusual population density. This is not about the main cities but closely packed semi urban towns forming a continuous urban sprawl

Na so, state boundaries are difficult to distinguish between Anambra, imo, Abia. Okigwe (imo) and Uturu (Abia) is the same urban metropolis

This is Onitsha, Anambra state. An Igbo man might brag about his wealth but not with the beauty of his Hometown. The beauty speaks for itself.

Forgot haters trying so hard to paint Anambra state bad. Aside Lagos and Abuja, Anambra state is the 3rd most generally developed state in Nigeria. Google is your friend.

Aside Jos, The South East Anambra particularly got the best weather you will ever desire in Nigeria.

A region with little effect of Harmattan built by philanthropists and explorers.

Proud to be from this beautiful state, and proud to be Igbo..
