Can't see the tunnel - what I see here looks like a 1960 colonial bridge over river osun.

redcap:
AbaGWORO is an untraveled semi-illiterate, that thing you've got there is a mere RAT hole,go to Maryland Lagos to see the mini-tunnel constructed decades ago and you are here appluading this drain Pipe.

Nairaland gives non entities the opportunity to interact with people they cannot even clean their shoes in real life. Nobody in your village can claim to have travelled more than my third tier employees not to talk of my humble self. Don't abuse this opportunity Nairaland has afforded you.

AlPeter:
Abagworo, saying other states needs to learn from this is an insult. Do you know how many like this exist in villages, in certain states in nigeria?

Any other state governor that emulates Okorocha shall provoke the citizens of the state to revolt against the governor.

Since he joined APC, Okorocha abandoned the rest of Imo state outside the state capital.

Google Okorocha or Imo state, no trace of Okorocha government anywhere with development infrastructure outside Owerri since Okorocha got second term.

The tunnel on show here, during the days when local government areas' allocations were not confiscated by state governors, local government councils built better bridges, tunnels, culvert, built and graded streets every year.

But Governor Okorocha uses nearly all the allocations coming to Imo state and its local government areas to destroy and build on one city, Owerri, since he joined APC.

Visit Imo state outside Owerri, see people's sufferings from roads excavated and abandoned by Okorocha contractors in the last four years.

Mention the village and show me pictures. Meanwhile read what I wrote earlier on so that you will not start showing photos of tunnels or interchange.

Abagworo:


Sincerely I don't see it as a tunnel neither do I see it as interchange. I believe its a low budget traffic decongestant that will play the role of tunnel or interchange. I foresee many States borrowing this idea in near future because its definitely affordable.

Next? An under ground Metro around Owerri Metropolitan City, if people outside Owerri continue to plead for Okorocha government to complete the roads his contractors excavated and abandoned in those areas.

Okorocha officially named areas outside Owerri as villages. Any way, a village is most beautiful to live in if the village has pipe borne water and electricity. Okorocha doesn't provide pipe borne water and electricity.

Former governor of Imo state, late Mbakwe , provided both pipe borne water and electricity to villages. He even provided industry in every lga. Then, LGA used their federal allocations to also build infrastructure.

Okorocha governs Owerri his own style.

The summary of your nonsense is that you hate Rochas Okorocha for joining APC. Show me what every Governor since the creation of Nigeria in 1914 has done in your Orlu and I will authoritatively prove that Okorocha has done it 5 times over between 2011 and 2016. Open a thread for it and bring your pictures of schools, roads, dualised roads, hospitals, markets, number of government scholarships from primary to university level from

1914 to 2011 vs 2011 to 2016.

I'm waiting

Is your principal, Okorocha, not having a heart of steel?

Why has Okorocha chosen to visit extreme punishment even upon school children in the Orlu you mentioned? In four years, school children walk through muddy roads excavated and abandoned by Okorocha contractors, roads to nearly all the schools in Orlu Urban LgA. Why? If the contractors had not excavated the roads, who cares?

Do we talk about the stadium Okorocha dismantled since 2011? Which normal state governor would watch youths in Orlu without organized sports five years running?

The Ihioma road and other two in Orlu dualized, before long....

BREAKING NEWS: Imo State Governor Rochas Okorocha Escapes Death As Substandard Bridge Collapses
[/size]
March 25, 2015 • By Sean

What could have been a major disaster was averted just by divine providence in Owerri, the Imo State capital when a pedestrian bridge built by Governor Rochas Okorocha at Heroes’ Children’s Park, opposite Concorde Hotel, collapsed under the governor.

The incident, which happened when the governor stopped over on his way to the NUJ Governorship Debate to interact with some students of Development Comprehensive Secondary School, Owerri, who were around the park when he came, caused a stir among on-lookers and passers-by.

Trouble however started when the governor took the students up the bridge to teach and inspire them on how to become leaders.

No sooner had the governor started the teachings with the students when the bridge caved in with the iron bracing of the bridge cut under the weight of the governor and the students and the students panicked and started shouting “Jesus! Jesus!!”, while the governor feigned ignorance of the situation even as his security aides rounded the spot to help him down.

Our correspondent who was there reports that when the incident happened, the governor’s aides, especially the members of the security operatives, who were visibly shaken, started shouting to the students: “Jump out!, get down!, jump out!” and the students jumped out from the bridge and ran for dear lives.

In the midst of the melee, the governor said “we’re too many here, please jump down”.

Our reporter can report that this was the first time the bridge was being used since it was constructed two years ago by Governor Okorocha.

It would be recalled that Akachi Road Bridge and several buildings (including the multi-million naira Imo Film Academy, a new security gate being constructed behind the main entrance gate to the Government House; office complex being constructed in the Imo State university campus, Owerri as well Princess Hotel Okigwe) constructed by the governor in the state had collapsed raising questions about the standard of such projects.

School Block Collapses In Owerri [/size]

April 20, 2016

Written by: Joe Nwachukwu-Owerri

Luck was in favour of Orji Primary School pupils in Owerri North Local Government Area of Imo State as a section of their school building collapsed when they were on holiday.

Report Maka Ndigbo from Owerri, Imo State capital, stated that pupils of the primary school, last week, were spared of what could have been a massive disaster when a 12-classroom block building collapsed during a rain storm.

Maka Ndigbo gathered that the collapsed building was one of newest structures at the primary school. However, no life was lost in the incident as pupils and their teachers were on holiday.

People, who visited the site of the collapsed building, told Maka Ndigbo that what could have been a serious and unfortunate incident was averted by the fact that schools in the state were still on holiday when the incident occurred.

The Orji Primary School is said to be accommodating several hundred pupils and teachers.

The issue of collapsed building in the country, according to some eye witnesses, is not new, but that a newly constructed building by the state government to collapse due to rain storm indicates a bad job by the contractors.

Imo State government has been severally accused of doing inferior jobs in the state as some of the roads the government constructed have been nicknamed “China Made’ which connotes non-durability.

The roads constructed by the state government are known to have been washed away by the first rains. Close observers say that the state government normally award road contracts to those who know little or nothing about road construction. And the contractors, they say, often turn out to do shabby works as expected.

Some people also believe that non payment for jobs done by the government may be responsible for shabby deals by the contractors.

According to tenants who live near the primary school, the school building collapsed due to the impact of a heavy wind storm and rain fall last weekend.

While there was no casualty recorded after the incident, members of the community expressed dismay over the collapse, saying it was a bad statement on the image of the state government.

The roof of the one story collapsed building was shattered, splitting the building into two.

A civil engineer, who pleaded anonimity, told Maka Ndigbo that most of the buildings were not well constructed.

He also accused the civil engineers in the state Ministry of Housing, who were supposed to supervise the construction work on the building, of negligence.

He said: “Government should look into construction of buildings. These buildings must be built based on certain standards so as to withstand strong wind and rain storm. Sadly, some Engineers act in ignorance of basic and key building principles”.

The collapsed school building was one of several others built in some wards in the state by the government under the free education programme of the state.

There are fears now over what happens to pupils and their teachers who are supposed to go back to the buildings when schools reopen later this month.

Some parents, who spoke to Maka Ndigbo, were of the view that government should assure them of the safety of their children in those schools after the vacation.

Keep deceiving yourself. Deep in your heart you know the whole truth.

Atlanticbreeze is known to be from Anambra pro-Obiano and anti-Peter Obi.

I made it clear that this is not a flyover, tunnel or interchange but a unique and cheap concept never before used but can serve the purpose of tunnel and interchange. Okorocha has completed one flyover and is on a 2nd one at the moment. All these in the past 8 months despite the economic downturn.

This is not a tunnel or interchange, its just a simple twin box culvert, if u see interchange u go bow

You go it right, it's not tunnel but funnel.

Shut up, atlanticbreze only came to respond to arressa's comment when he made reference to Anambra. I don't care about what happens on any of Imo State threads so far as they maintain the rule of engagement of not mentioning my state.

Even people in New York, Johannesburg, Cairo, Niamey, Nairobi and Rio De Janeiro are suffering. Okorocha is not God and cannot stop your suffering.

Imo is not at war with Anambra hence your rule of engagement is unnecessary. I've never found anything wrong in criticism by any Nigerian against Imo State as it encourages progress.

This has always been my issue with you right from time. Focus on your state and let me focus on mine, any attempt to breach this simple rule will see me and you again in the trenches. I can accept comments from others who are sane concerning my state but not you in particular. I have consistently made it clear to you that I am now solely on NL just to keep a 24/7 surveillance on you and all your usernames. It is something I am so glad to sign-up to do so far as NL exist..
