Welcome to Onitsha: the city with the world’s worst air


The Nigerian city has recorded the world’s worst levels of PM10 air pollution. But although the results are lethal, the problem is not taken seriously here


Approaching Okpoko market through thick smog on the back of an okada (motorcycle taxi), the natural reaction is to cover your nose to protect yourself from the dust storm – but the effort is futile.

When a lorry zooms past, kicking up yet another red cloud of dirt, a trader turns the head of a sleeping toddler away from the road, a protective act that is as poignant as it is pointless.

This is a typical day in the southern Nigerian port city of Onitsha – which last year gained notoriety when it was ranked the worst city in the world for the staggering levels of PM10 particulate matter in its air.

Onitsha’s mean annual concentration was recorded at 594 micrograms per cubic metre by the World Health Organization – massively exceeding the WHO’s annual guideline limit for PM10s of 20μg/m3.

PM10 refers to coarse dust particles between 10 and 2.5 micrometres in diameter, while PM2.5s are even finer and more dangerous when inhaled, settling deep in a person’s lungs. Sources of both include dust storms, gases emitted by vehicles, all types of combustion, and industrial activities such as cement manufacturing, construction, mining and smelting. Onitsha scores highly on most of the above – as do other rapidly growing Nigerian cities such as Kaduna, Aba and Umuahia, all of which also featured in the WHO’s 20 worst offenders for PM10s.

In Onitsha’s very busy Okpoko market, my air quality monitor registers 140 for PM10s and 70 for PM2.5s – all way over recommended healthy levels, but still nothing compared to the readings triggered in other parts of this densely populated commercial and industrial hub.

The entire vicinity of the market is perpetually dusty, as wood-sellers saw lumber into different shapes and sizes. The air here is made worse by all the fine sand particles that fly off the back of trucks as they visit one of the many dredging companies on the bank of the River Niger, just behind the wood market.

Ochanja Market: The Sufferings, The Politics and The Way Forward.

Ochanja Market in Onitsha Anambra State is currently in a deep mess. Failed Drainage systems have cost the traders a lot, because the buyers can no longer access their shops because of excessive flooding. Who do we blame? The Government that imposes huge tax on the shop owners or the trade union whose utmost concern is to play politics targeted at milking the revenues generated from the market? What about the traders themselves? They block their flood channels with all kinds of refuses and they are now paying for their carelessness.

NGpatriot:




How do you as a human being sit all day to conduct business on top of odious rot, decay and garbage without care or concern?

How do you as a society buy consumable goods that you put in your mouth and bodies in that kind of environment?


What kind of government look the other way while people live and exist in such squalor and filth?


Even pigs can do better.


This is just too sad.

Thelimitbreaker:
Look at what this malnourished charlatan is saying... Of a truth it can absolutely happen anywhere but it's headquarters is predicated in our Naija... Wake up and remove the scales from your eyes... Throw away all these party affliations while we all "stand together" in making our country a better place to habitate in.....

DamnnNiggarr:
you don't leave in Onitsha,
That's not Ochanja.

But why are you allover the thread??

I still don't understand Why people dump refuse on the road

Simplyleo:
Again, Tinubu keeps embezzling money for everything in the South East. Even the money for the evacuation of refuse in onitsha, Tinubu still stole it.

Nawa for Tinubu o.
