Relief has come for residents of Works Layout in Owerri the Imo state capital, as the state government has embarked on the control of the gully erosion that has claimed many houses and shops around the area for over a long period of time.
While inspecting the ongoing project at Works Layout, the Imo state Governor Rochas Okorocha said the ongoing erosion control project will go a long way to alleviate the suffering of the people in the area.


He noted that the road when completed will serve as a link and bypass for commuters wishing to link IMSU junction to Orlu road and Amakohia as this will practically reduce the traffic congestion within the owerri Municipal.
He appealed to residents of the area to cooperate with the state government so as to achieve a durable and lasting solution to the erosion menace because the state government will soon commence the demolition of some buildings and fences built on drainages and water ways.

The Governor also disclosed that the Works Layout Erosion Control will also engineer the construction of another inner ring road within the state capital which will bring traffic congestion in the city to its barest minimal.

So much for being a smaller jagaban, even the real Jagaban would slap you desperately for such deluded comment..

A welcome developement! The presence of gully erosions in the South-East/ South-South regions are becoming an eyesore...Haters: Disgracing their Father's Household since 1872...This thread isn't related to tribalistic politics, and yet the Ndiofes are here ...*Spits*

South east landlocked? lt reflects your knowledge of geography! l imagine in your mind Zaria is at the banks of River Niger and not Onitsha!

"Well what's else can I say for faith is the substance and evidence of things yet unseen"..... Mayb u guys don't know our governor okorocha that's why, but lemme tell u okorocha is a thief, a back stabber with so many unfulfilled promises. He's talking about the controlling erosion @ imsu junction, what abt the roundabout there, has it been completed..? No.! Na only where him buy land na en dem they tarred well. That not even the issue sef. The standard of materials used in the work are poor, all he does is to decieve old men and women with free education. No worry 2015 he go hear am, na anarchy him go get not war. We've not talked of the civil servants that are against him, the same pple he made promise to. No wonder OBJ called him big thief the day he came to owerri.. Okorocha is a dead meat 2015, ask anybody even he himself knows that's why he's trying to make amends now, but we the civil servants too don lock up our mind. He 4got that owerri is a place for white collar jobs, u don't mess with the civil servants else them go Bleep u up

If voting for Okorocha in 2011 was a
mistake,that is if indeed it was a
mistake,may
we make the same mistake again come
2015.

Imo oni baje.

It will take a lot for me to believe anything this man says. I must say that Rochas is one of the disappointments modern democracy. It really saddens me when I drive around IMO state and observe with disgust the level of mediocrity at play in his execution of works.
It is either he is overwhelmed with work or he is just a complete failure who must be pushed out of office ASAP. I admit that we as IMO people collectively made the mistake of entrusting our future into his hands; I dare say that Ohakim would have been a better choice but our emotions took the better part of us.
Sad!

Descartes, see the result of hard work on Nairaland...you made front page .


@topic..so an APC governor is the only Ibo leader working to ensure Eboland does not disappear from the world map as a result of erosion...

God bless Rochas Okorocha...
God bless the 1% sensible ibos in Nigeria...
God bless APC....

Ebola is not in "South West", its in Lagos where we have 60% of the entire Ibo population in Nigeria residing.
