List of towns in Anambra State:

Anambra State is a Nigerian state, located in the southeastern region of the country.The state was created on 27 August 1991. Anambra state is bounded by Delta State to the west, Imo State and Rivers State to the south, Enugu State to the east and Kogi State to the north. The State Capital is Awka, while the State’s Largest City is Onitsha.

The state name was formed in 1976 from the former East Central State. The state is named after Omambala River, a river that runs through the state. Anambra is the Anglicized name of the Omambala. The city of Onitsha, a historic port city from the pre-colonial era, remains an important centre of commerce within the state.

Nicknamed the “Light of the Nation”, Anambra State is the 8th most populous state in the nation, although that has seriously been argued against as Onitsha, the state’s biggest and most populous urban area was discovered to be over 5.6 million in population in 2022 by Africapolis which makes Onitsha second largest urban areas in Nigeria after Lagos.

The area currently known as Anambra State has been the site of numerous civilizations since at least the 9th century AD, including the ancient Kingdom of Nri, whose capital was the historic town of Igbo-Ukwu within the state. Residents of Anambra State are primarily Igbo with the Igbo language serving as a lingua franca throughout the state.

During the Nigerian Civil War (1967–1970), Anambra State was part of Republic of Biafra formed by Igbo nationalists. Anambra was severely affected by the war. Today, Anambra State is one of most urbanized state in Nigeria.
