Mosques

Onitsha, a major commercial hub in Anambra State, hosts a network of mosques and prayer rooms that serve the Muslim community across the city and its surroundings. Based on available mapped records, at least 20 prayer places are listed within a 50 km radius of the city centre. The most prominent among them is Onitsha Central Mosque, located in the Fegge district at a distance of 1.2 km from the city centre. Other notable listed mosques include Army Cantonment Central Mosque (3 km away) and Ipadeola Mosque (2 km away) on Uga Street in Fegge. The data also shows multiple locations named Sheik Dahiru Bauchi, with addresses in Odoakpu (0.4 km), Army Barracks (3 km), and other parts of Onitsha, as well as in Asaba and Nkpor.

The implantation of prayer places extends beyond Onitsha proper into neighbouring towns and cities. In Asaba, Delta State, about 9–13 km away, listed mosques include Police Head Quarter Mosque, ARASE OLUWA ASABA CENTRAL MOSQUE II in Isieke, Cable Mosque at Cablepoint, and several Sheik Dahiru Bauchi locations on streets like Arthur Richards, Okwe, and Onishe. In Nkpor, Anambra, a central mosque is listed on Isiafor Layout (4.1 km), along with additional Sheik Dahiru Bauchi sites near Main Market and New Market Road. Further afield, the database includes Nnewi central mosque (19.8 km) at the main market in Amaunsa, Otuocha Mosque (21.8 km), First Bank Oka Akoko in Awka (31.4 km), and Anambra NYSC Camp Mosque in Umuawulu (34.5 km).

For Muslims living in or visiting Onitsha, the mapped coverage indicates that prayer places are concentrated in the Fegge, Odoakpu, and Army Barracks areas within the city, with additional options in Asaba, Nkpor, and other nearby communes. The listed mosques vary in distance from the city centre, offering choices for daily prayers, Jumu'ah, and Eid gatherings—such as the Eidl Prayer Ground at the Army Cantonment. While the data does not provide full details on facilities or services, it serves as a practical starting point for locating prayer spaces. Users are encouraged to verify addresses and contact information directly, as the listings are based on available mapped records and may not be exhaustive.
