  2. Nice one bro. Been showing some work igbo colleagues who haven't been to Nigeria for donkey years your videos and they're impressed! Watching from Sheffield, UK. Keep it up nwanne mmadụ! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

  3. Looks amazing. My great-great uncle Charles was the Archbishop of the Holy Trinity church there until 1967. I'm always curious about how Onitsha is doing because he always said great things about it. Love to see this place doing well!

  4. Seems like they would do well to create some parks and develop the riverside a little.

  5. Nice town Onitsha, Otu Nkwo. However, the concept of GRA in African cities should be done away with. It Carrys with it, dark and egdy history of subjugation of the natives. It's legacy is one of colonial recism and segregation, predicated on the illusion that the natives are not good enough to live beside the visitors. It is almost sixty decades now, since the colonialist left and we are still into this GRA business. When the British surrendered in 1777, the Americans changed everything British to American. Today, as result of lack of information and awareness, not only has the GRA tradition continued, it represents status symbol and prestigious addresses. We will be closing that chapter of shame and humiliation, in our history, to call those areas something else, instead of GRA.

  6. Great videos of eastern Nigeria, for those of us here in the United States, where can we donate to make sure you keep producing more videos!

  7. What is unique about this video? The Igbo's are good at condemning other places in Nigeria but look at their place. Nonsense biafraud land

  8. Nonsense undeveloped, go look for lagos or abuja video too, then you will see this is real village compared to them, no plans no green arears or high scrapers, those who are admiring this nonsense are villagers who has not traveled in Nigeria talk less of other countries, anambra were they have one od the richest people in Nigeria looks like this what a shame, abd most of those beautiful things build in lagos and abuja are built by them!

  9. Onitsha sea or river line can be turn into other big cities in the world or Lagos lekki, Victoria. Igbos bring such innovation to onitsha. Stop building everything in Lagos.

  10. I was born here but have continued to explore the world. The final one minute of your video captures areas of the Old Nkisi or GRA where I used to play truant with my gang of 9 to 11 year olds in 1972. We would scour the bushes for unspent or live M4 Assault Rifle bullets, we would then start a huge bonfire and toss bucket loads of these lethal ammunition into the fire and run for cover! The exploding bullets will send people nearby into a panic. One day we were discovered, rounded up and given a savage trashing. Another trick was at the burnt-out Onitsha Main Market before it was rebuilt. We would go in there and re-emerge with pocket full of Shillings, Pennies Sixes! If Scorpion Dagger or Zoro is still alive, just ask them. Best era of my life !!!

  11. Immediately subscribed . Your approach to editing and music is bby far on another level. Lagos videographers are gonna be jealous of you . Even though europe had stolen a lot of africa's wealth , I see africa as more beautiful than europe

  12. An almost completely other and attractive side of the too busy commercial city called Onitsha – thanks.

  13. Anambra has potential but without planing and good urban renewal it will decay. The state government can recover those houses along the bank or Niger and plan a CBD (central business district) there and improve the skyline of the cith

  14. There is woman going people home killing Nigeria children her name is kollie garwu from Liberia,herbalist needed to destroy all her flying wings.
