Driving Around Onitsha In 2021 

Onitsha needs serious urban renewal. It has the big city vibe but is very chaotic. There is no effective city govt to regulate traffic, maintain roads and restrict street trading. I do not know when that will happen but it is quite needed. Thanks for the video.

Aside from Lagos and Abuja, Igbo land and old eastern region is the most beautiful and most developed region in Nigeria.

Who else is watching from Europe

Onitsha is dope but needs modern decorations , beautification as well as traffic light.... good job

My brother u are the best vlog not all this Mugs that video nonsense

I am from Kwale (anioma), my late father was a wise bussiness man who lived all his entire life in this Onitsha. We his 9 children were all born here. Everyone knew him then as "papa onitsha". He was uneducated (only primary 3) but 7 of his children are graduates. Ukwuani igbo language and eastern igbo extremely resemble each other, also in dressings, all festivals and culture, so you dont need to learn anything. But some of our ukwuani pronounciations are twisted. Or should i say some eastern igbo pronounciations are the ones twisted? In weekends, whenever he travels to kwale to attend communal meetings, his fellow chiefs will be laughing and mocking him for his critical "igbo man sence". Most times, at home he also forgets and communicates with us with the eastern igbo accent, then we and my mother will be mocking him. He left us in 2016 at 93 yrs, we all travelled back home to bury him. Watching this Onitsha video brings back all his good memories. The great wise Ajieh of ukwuani, may you continue to Rip!

But some people that has not traveled out of their region in the northern Nigeria will ignorantly tell you that onicha is very dirty. I don't blame them because they have not traveled out of their Village.

Nice video, thanks for sharing your drives brother ! that is the third very long drive in 2 weeks I really appreciate as you maybe saw... take care man and enjoy creating new type of content.

Wa ooo i swear you just make me to star thinking of home it been long ooo onitsha sweet place

I really felt for the lady running to catch a bus, at the beginning of your vlog. In Nigeria pedestrians must watch out for cars. Whereas in most other countries, vehicle drivers MUST take extra care to avoid pedestrians.

Onitsha needs more than a renovation....It needs an entire OVERHAUL ! What Gives ? How can the city that claims to have & house the biggest open market in AFRICA be so OLD & OUTDATED ?

Our Nigerian cities are so dilapidated

Omo u carry vex enter diz year..u just d knack us videos left and right

Have the authorities here ever heard of pedestrian sidewalks? Why should pedestrians have to walk on the asphalt alongside vehicles? It's ludicrous. And those open drains need shutting.

The highway is superb, no doubt. But i have problems with why such an expensive road should be without greenery. The original artist impression of the Highway shows a Highway with ornamental plants on both sides, making the road look majestically beautiful. Why can't they accomplish that dream. This is the gateway to the East from the west end of Nigeria.

The build a multiple lane carriage way and stupidly forgot to build the most important part, the pavements, pedestrians and underpass, no facilities for cyclists, these days all the rich people are on bicycles so our cities must follow global trends with cyclists super high ways for the specialist bicycles. The lovely lady in blue dress nearly got run over for merely trying to cross the road and why should tuk-tuk with three wheels be on a carriage way. Eboh thanks for putting our southeast on the map, please aggressively push your channel, interact in the comments section and attract more subscribers.

Nice job Eboh.

Onitsha one the most busiest city in Africa, Governor u need 2 up ur game on road maintenance

See the beautiful city of Onitsha. When shall Imo state develop a mega city of this ranking? Owerri is still a disorganized dilapidated glorified village filled with bad roads and filth.

Overtake from the left, overtake from the right, no speed limit, no traffic signs, tricycle driving on major highways, tricycle overtaking cars, people crossing 3 lane highways. People loadng from right and left, people cars joining the highway slowing down incoming traffic, no road markings on some roads, Jeez Nigerian are a very indesciplined people. Changing this is going to be a challenge

The post office is begging for a clean up and renovation.

Once onitsha boy nnwa otu now watching from uk, upper iweka now looks so clean, wow, onitsha those days

Nwokem better finish those novels and publish. If Chinue Achebe was talking like you the world wouldn't have known and recognised him. Keep it up Eboh media

I love your videos, glasses up to you, Atlanta GA

After all these years, no real eye catching change in Onitsha ... Heavens help us!

Well done Nwanne, You always make awesome vid!! Eboh ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿

I love that thats my area cherish most owerri road,nkpor junction ,omagba,fegge,okopoko, i love onitsha so much

My husband was born in this city. One day i will visit this place and see my in laws

Greatings from Germany,.. Onitsha my city. thanks for bringing back all these memories. I grew up in Housing Estate Fegge.

Meanwhile God has just saved that girl from accident 🙄

Very lovely road trip. I schooled in Onitsha(Saint Charles Science School) on Awka road. so this really brings back lots of memories. Thanks so much for this well narrated footage. More than anything else I love the way you guys are so real and just talk naturally and freely about general affairs.

Nigeria jaga jaga, everything scatter scatter! Edo boy but I grew up in Onitsha, I'm now in Australia, very shock to see things this way after many years! Thanks for the memories though!

I thought by now they would've cleaned up onitsha at list. Still the same old houses, roads with dust and markets. We should get onitsha right to commemorate with it name as the largest market in NIGERIA.

Rest in peace ✌️ man 😭

I remember those days during Christmas in onitsha, wow, onitsha too sweet those days

Very impressive, can you. show some residential area and modern outskirts also ,I enjoyed watching, learnt a lot. Knowing the huge population of Nigeria and the large number of cars on its road every day, your city deserve credit.

Cool video my brother watching from Atlanta USA

That's a good clip, from Eboh Media. Osha has improved a lot. Thanx dear.

Wow!!! The city is very clean. Very very clean compare to some city.

No place like home 🏡 kudos bro

Eboh Media, Great Job!!! I really enjoyed the ride with you. I was hoping that you would go along Limca road and then drive through Omaba estates, but i guess you were dodging Onitsha traffic jams. Thank you very much for this video! I really enjoyed it!

Very sharp and clear pictures. Thanks for this

Onitsha is a beautiful city. The economic hub of southeast region

They never renovate that five star restaurants

Onitsha no improve ajeh!! This keke way full everywhere nah him dey pain me gidi gon. Sending love from Ottawa 🇨🇦 thanks Eboh

Thank you my brother, I just see the nitel max,I work there some years ago, I was the one that fex the cables the radio for nitel GSM at that max,now I am outside the country watching from Osaka japan, we travel from lagos to do the work then, I work with ania telecom,sub contract with Ericsson telecom,

Beautiful city? Why are pedestrians 🚶‍♀️ walking across the road? Are there no pedestrian crossings? Why are they writing happy holidays? Shouldn’t that be Merry Christmas? What’s the maximum speed limit?

So far all the roads are good, how come people are complaining that willy is not working

Beautiful clean city

Watching this left me in tears... i had to also share with my twin brother. Onitsha is where we grew up. We've been away from Onitsha for nearly 20 years now... i live here in Los Angeles, California US 🇺🇸 and my twin brother lives in Edmonton, Alberta Canada 🇨🇦

Ppl crossing Xpress Roads like Cows....The Street Lights are already falling 1 by 1...Littering everywhere Stubborn Packing here and there. Those Markets should be Relocated it is causing Lawlessness in the Vicinity.

You did this on a Sunday , see how calm onitsha was 😅

Nigerian and lack of maintenance,. when I was in DMGS that Pacific complex was so new and looks good,. now it looks like crap.

Nice 👍

You for hit that woman small

Its a pity that there're no pedestrian bridges in the whole of Onitcha, and people have to cross the express road at their risk and peril. No presence of the government in IGBOLAND, its so shameful. I salute the spirit and resilience of Igbos, they refuse to die, inspite of all what the federal and state governments with the help of some wicked world leaders have done to kill them. Well done and thanks for the video!

Eboh media, you are trying so much nice video

Drove around the Awka Road last week, but very very interesting watching and cool in video. Daålů

My beautiful city

Oga stop calling it sea port please

Nice 0ne nwanne, I really felt as if am in Onitsha throughout the blog,but why is Pacific plaza look so dilapidated. Thanks for the blog

Keep up the good work bro 💯💯

Am miss onitsha🇦🇪

Ignore the law.....lol

How do you know your lane? Are you guys LHD or RHD?

Ehm I'm kinda disappointed maybe because I over expected or my hope was too high... The east need development seriously.. This is like a village in some African countries.

Too much talking (both driver and passenger gisting about things unrelated to the mission and mostly verbally incoherent) things in this video. Gist when you get home, take your driving /vlogging as business, when you get home, you gist to the heavens. Imagine video intro, “Aunty na ene nu anya + ikucha aka 10 times”. So annoying. I came back because of Enugu video - that one was on point, this is not. You can do better, thanks.

So where is that TRAFFIC that people always stay 4 hrs before getting to onitsha??? How come EVERYWHERE is so deserted??? Pls you have to revisit the headbrige biko... I just travelled and people stay hours... the place is so congested but is clean not dirty like it use to..pls share where the traffic jam is ok... dont fool US

Some traffic light counter up to 99 seconds; wow.

Awada is my hood.. Watching from Italy

U tried buh u missed so many streets. Miss gabbs plaza etc

Hello Eboh, awesome video. I am wondering though why does it seem that many people here are wearing red t-shirts, suits, or dresses more than any other color?

There is woman going people home witch her name is kollie garwu from Liberia,she go people home killing children at night for 4, years now.

only god dey save that girl because if no for god she don't fe dey for heaven now now

If this Awka Raod where dualize it would have make more sense.... Is too compacted really.....,😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂......I was born and raised there ...At Osuma street by Texaco Awka Road...

Onitsha fine sha na just good road and city organization e need

It's popularly known as Zik's Roundabout.

Open drainage in the middle of the road!

Hahahahaha one more thing i miss to hearing the way the call passages

IF governor can destroy all these old buidind aqnd give them another place and use those places for another things.

Good job man

Enugu still the best so far. Great job bro.

Sometimes! I am so confused! Especially on social media, there are people agitating for biafra! Quite often such “ agitators” are rather hostile and vitriolic in their bid for secession! But increasingly, ( and thanks to social media vloggers) I have seen Onitsha, Owerri, Enugu, Abakaliki , Akwa and others…. and they are just like any other cities in Nigeria ! These are all functioning and thriving cities and towns ! They are just as boisterous, noisy and chaotic as anywhere else in the old country! I don’t see any great or major distinctions in the South east cities! Nigerian cities all share the same open gutters syndrome, they all have Kekes and Okadas and rickety buses and taxis! They all share the terrible driving and cohesion! I had credited the biafran agitations to endemic poverty and lack of infrastructures! Now let me be CLEAR!! Onitsha needs greater infrastructural development big time!! But so does Lagos, Abuja, Ibadan ( serious one) Port Harcourt, Calabar and Uyo ! The whole country needs to get a wriggle on! I am all for National restructuring! Whereby states control their own resources, ( and practice true federal fiscal revenue) build, own and control their state police ! Their own educational curriculum ! I pray so !

I'm Elma, Marketing Manager ToBase and we noticed your RU-vid account for quite some time.

Commission will be given as a token of appreciation. If you are interested, please let me know. Hope to hear from you soon.

Lawlessness Indeed!

Wow wow I left here 11 years ago how the highway from upper iweka look sweet and wide

This is shocking to me. I didn't know, they have good road networks here in Onitsha. Waoooh, better than the roads in Lagos mainland, Okota and oshodi specifically

I appreciate this video very much but it kind of annoyed as well, the subtitle keep flicking off and on, which keep blanking off the views your trying to show us. It would have been so much better without the blinking.

great work

My Military Friend Kolade Johnson was station at that Barracks. Now they transferred him to jos

Goodluck Johnathan govt. did justice to this road... Nice vlog

Rip😭

If you jam a crazy woman while minding your business,dem go say you wan take am do money.

Dead bus everywhere in Nigeria. Nobody is ready to fix the menace.

We here :) , amazing as usual .

Eastern States are really developed and their Governors really tried.

I wish you will pass my school in Awka road prince memorial high school

Great one

LOL where did all of those people come from @20:30.

Once the seaport is ready, Onitsha is good o go!!
