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.

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.

Twistaray:



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:


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?

Twistaray:


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.

I really have no time for your ilk, do yourself a favour, think about improving your life and that of your parents. With your 2.2, add fasting and prayers to it and you may just be cured of the hate and bitterness.

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?

NewNigeriaMind:


You are in your late 3o living with your parents, you graduated with 2.2, pushing papers in a no-class law firm and you are currently supporting your siblings because your parents don't have the means to do so anymore.

Yet you are here displaying the typical igboid attribute-chest beating.

This is my advise to you, focus on your life and pray, work hard so you can lift your parents and family out of the pitiable condition they are currently.

If only you are worth more than one of my shoes, i would have taken your lamentations more seriously. By the WAY, bitterness kills, stop being boisterous cause you only show your poverty mentality when you don't even have a kobo to your name.

You are beneath anyone close to me not to talk of myself, have a little respect .

Peace

However, the WHO also said on Wednesday that the pollution data from Onitsha was not necessarily reliable because it came from a single monitoring station.

“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.

So if I call them "dirty, filthy, stinking ipob youths" now, I would be very accurate?


Solid!

Joe4lv:
@OP,please give us the criteria for this rating and not just using 'polluted'. Is it noise pollution, environmental pollution, etc.

You don't just post something without write-ups to back your claims.

Until you edit your post and give us the bases of those ranking, your post remains null and void.

I can even see umuahia there and I hope it is not what am thinking?

masterpat:



If i call u a very big fool, i believe i will be very accurate as well

Kennydoc:



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

TheNonce:





Get lost from my mentions you this dirty onitsha ipob animal! This long epistle of painment you just posted is trash!




If you like cry all day like a 5 year old girl, or you can go and report the o.p to the police if you want! Na you sabi! Go and clean up your state capital abeg! I can smell the stench all over the thread!




***covers nose with peg***

Kennydoc:


You aren't worth my epistle. What do you know? To even refer to Onitsha as a state capital shows the level of your ignorance.
Get out!

I hope learning isn't difficult for you, sincerely.
The list talked about most polluted cities in the world. They only measured air pollution and rated the cities accordingly, so you cannot extrapolate it by yourself to mean dirtiness. Most of the cities listed there aren't necessarily dirty, but they have the highest concentrations of particulate matter in the air most of which are released by exhaust fumes of vehicles, generators, industries, even dust from roads.

Onitsha is the gateway to the south east, apart from being the largest commercial city in the south east. It has very heavy vehicular traffic when you consider it's size compared to any other city in Nigeria. What I mean is that because of the very small size of Onitsha, and the fact that more than 50% of all vehicles entering and exiting the south east pass through the town, it has the highest vehicular density in Nigeria. That's the reason why the particulate matter in the air is so high, compared to Lagos. The study only measured the particulate matter in the air in the different cities studied.
Even if Onitsha is dirty, the study didn't rate the town as the dirtiest in the world.

There is a whole lot of difference between air pollution and dirtiness. Beijing has always been known to be one of the most polluted cities in the world cos of the concentration of particles in the air. Even the atmosphere in Beijing often looks hazy in the daytime cos of the high concentration of fumes in the air, but Beijing isn't a dirty city. It's the capital of China and is better organized and neater than even Abuja.

AmericanQuarter:



Don't bother yourself as we all know that Onitsha is a beautiful neat city. Someone has already pointed out the basis for the survey and it was limited to the Eastern cities whereas we know that the PM for Lagos is by far more than Onitsha or any other major eastern city. So worry not as the reality defeats the so called report.

NewNigeriaMind:


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.
