mightyhaze: You people can quantify things with such nonsensical adjectives. Anyone who's never been to Onitsha would think he is describing Switzerland and not a cesspit that we all know it is. 6 Likes |

Apart from the pictures with that Volkswagen beetle and Yellow bus, I don't see much difference when compared to present day Nigeria. Take the pictures with markets as example. Present day Nigerian market, still looks same way or even worse. |

obaino860: Dude! Possibly you went to the poorer side of town or you didn't visit ibadan as you claimed.. I was in that town for a year and i criss-crossed the entire town (from the poorer parts to the richer parts). I have been to Onitsha before and at 1st i wasn't too impressed cuz i met loud, smelly, rude & aggressive set of people people with crappy roads but i kept an open mind because i came there to have fun and celebrate with friends and not to pass judgement on millions of people because of the few that i met on my 1st day. I had good outings later on and if i have the time, i will visit again.. 3 Likes |

jidxin: What wisdom are you talking with? A place demolished to zero level within a space of few years become alive and vibrant again to the glare of everyone by individual efforts no government intervention, and you want to compared a city that has never seen a frackers let alone war to Osha.. I don't support the people calling brown roof.. I'm not that kind of person I'm just enjoying my baifran land 17 Likes |
