Tell us the reason for the demolition or shut up.


You think government will just make up one day and demolish one of their sources of revenue without any reason ?

I wouldn't seek validation on the authenticity of the above post -if it's padded with lies or not- but as a frequent traveller to the Eastern part of Nigeria, 'Douglas Road' in Owerri needs to be re-shaped to suit the beauty of the capital.

My apologies to the natives of this historical market. I may not know the history or how events played out leading to the establishment of the market at its location, but I vehemently feel the market needs to be relocated. Douglas Rd. needs to be revamped to a modern business district, and in doing this, some structures need to pulled out. Not just the refrenced market; this should be extended to the other market dominated by my brothers from the North. This Rd occupies a strategic location in the state capital, connecting Owerri to majors areas- the airport, Umuahia, Aba, etc.

From my experience and observation, this place is the dirtiest part of the state from time immemorial, and this negates the aesthetic beauty of the town. Therefore, it is rather an act of ignorance for anyone to chide the State Government on her objective to re-build the road. Douglas road should portrary the kind of serenity and beauty as seen in places Imolites call 'New Owerri'.

Also, the governor should ensure adequate compensation is paid to those affected and provide a better alternative for the buisness people operating on this axis. Politics of hate and the absence of compassion should not influence this proposed task.

The market should be demolished ,alongside those Owerri village houses

The market should be relocated. the present day situation does no support that type of market there. I dislike Rochas politics but the truth must be told.
