[edit] Population

According to the provisional breakdown of the Nigerian census Onitsha has a population of 261.604. It has a population of 600.000, though, according to the Daily Sun, April 22, 2007, of one-million-odd according to Nigerian Monthly, June 2005, of more than 1.5 million people according to the Nigerian Tribune (Mon. 29th January 2007, not online), of about three million according to the Guardian, Tuesday, July 04, 2006 and of about 6 million according to the Anambra State government (in 2005). Everybody seems to feel free to make up an Onitsha of their own design with as many LGAs as they please. What are we to make of this? Ankimai 20:08, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
