God forbid...w@ happened to awka, owerri or Enugu...?

stop showing your f00lishness.....if at all you are igbo, you l know that we are not into segregation, any place can be used for the biafran capital if it should come to actualization

coolzeal:
This has nothing to do with mediocrity. We all know T.A Orji and Mattew Elechi are the worst governors in the east.

I'm sorry this has everything to do with the love and inexplicable passion for mediocrity. Our leaders are just content with poorly executed projects that is why we have this issue.

...and yeah, this is not just a TA Orji or Elechi matter, almost all other Nigerian governors are guilty of this same mess.

Udmaster:
Umuahia City is so Underated.

Yeah and you're now over rating it.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder sha, but op, have you ever left umuahia before? Then again it depends on what appeals to you.

Raiders:
ochendo really performed well in Abia state. I guess that is the reason pdp got reelected in Abia state

You obviously don't know what you're saying.

It depends on Ur budget... How much are U looking at? The cheapest room at Gina Hotel goes for 8k. There are hotels for 5k though. Whats Ur budget?

Thanks Bro, Comfort is everything to me. I can do anything between 8 and 20 if the place is right.

No be this Abia wey I dey? Did u say most beautiful place in Nigeria? I guess u've not travelled to places, op

Nigerians are funny. Are we even looking at the same pictures?

What in these pictures will make one believe that Umuahia is beautiful. Even the buildings are generic. I stay in Lagos but I have been to Aba, Owerri, Enugu, Abakaliki, lived in Awka, Nnewi, Onitsha and I can confidently say that amongst them all, the only place Umuahia looks better than is Onitsha. Period.

Must you prove your point with an insult? Smh...ab.eg swerve..

Funny O.P. Please why did you not upload pictures of Agbama housing estate and the roads there!

Please stop misleading the public. You upload pictures of certain streets and say Ochendo was working? How do you justify the fact that Aba was in the same state for eight years under his regime?

You people shouldn't mind him o. Showing Abia tower and Michael Okpara square is different from paying workers their hard earned salaries. Gratuities have not been paid in Abia state since 2000..

I will upload my own pictures very soon so that people will know the truth!

God will visit him in anger.

Nonsense..... All these are uncompleted buildings that has been under construction for over six years and you call that beauty of umuahia..... I regret opening this thread..

johnjay2012:
I honestly don't want to use foul words here, but this post is completely useless, which of the Umuahia is Beautiful? I am sure it is the ones in your dreams.. Using digitally enhanced pictures to deceive people. Show us the refuse dumps along Aba Road...

Bros, no make me vex oo.

seconded....... why won't it look beautiful when the pictures were edited...... blurring out the backgrounds and all that. popping out the colours on Photoshop..

fake people.have you hone go amuzukwu and orie ugba ibeku the claimed place of T A Orji to see how the place looks like or does it mean they are not part of umuahia. YOU JUST PICTURED PERSONAL HOUSES TO DECEIVE PEPPLE.

snowDiva:

I apologize for any insult

Excuse me,is this what u abians call beauty or city? I see,to a hungry man even gall is sweet.After all the years of siting bad roads and poor structures around Abia,little wonder why average buildings seem like new London to u guys.

tohpahz:


Why if i may ask??
Is he beta that ochendo??

Yes of course.

Or does his antecedents speak bad of him? He has no dent as far as i am concerned.




Prove me wrong?

Op why all this lies na
You jst dey snap fine houses and tower
Why you no snap d real thing

Esp
Cooperative road known as GATE

Gosh that place dirty die
I weep for that city

cohug:
Are u sure. That's where I come from ooo, since when? Lord hear our prayers.

When was the last time you visited Umuahia? Seems you don't travel home at all.

Udmaster:
MORE PICS..

OP how about the new international market and estates coming up along Uzuakoli road? It's a massive project and a new town entirely.

Greatidonis:
Please fellow Nairalanders, I will be visiting Umuahia soon from PH probably for 2 or 3 days. I will be glad if someone here who knows Umuahia well can suggest a good hotel in a safe and serene part of town that I can stay and enjoy my stay. Thanks.

Empire hotel or De Merit hotel will be just fine. Thank me later!

galaxi:
lol!! may God punish the poster. umuahia is not this good looking,if it was we abians will not be insulting T.A.

Guy sorry for quoting you but you re wring cos all the pictures the guy posted their was exactly what when I was on my way to nysc camp at akwa ibom state. I can vividly remember the state court complex we passed during the the journey. So don't talk as if he imported all those pictures cos they are the reality on ground. Note: am not from Abia state but really when see good we should say it as it is and the bad as you see it. May be aba is bad; I don't know cos I didn't pass through aba but umuhia is ok because the way some of you painted Abia state u will not believe that any good can come out of the state.
For the guy saying is only in akwa ibom that roads are painted with signs, not only in uyo in short we have begging Sullivan to reduce money or to stop painting/ applying make up in our roads cos it like every four to six month he will do another make up on the road. As well as some states that u he not visited do apply the make up of a thing.
All in all am not saying that we shouldn't make our leaders give us dividends of democracy but when u see some good works done, appreciate it or probably don't talk down/ claim nothing is on ground when you know its a lie at least you should urge him to do more where you think is necessary.

[quote author=cohug post=33640124]Are u sure. That's where I come from ooo, since when? Lord hear our prayers. ...This pix is a lie,a complete set up.Abia is not peaceful, a very lawless area.

obailala:
Something I have noticed about most Nigerian city roads, the roads are never marked and I wish someone could explain why

Is it just that we so passionately love mediocrity or what is the reason exactly?... For crying out loud, after spending hundreds of millions to build a new road, why is it so difficult to spend a few thousands to mark the roads properly and give the city a nice and meaningful look?

Today we keep hailing the roads in Akwa-Ibom but in my opinion, there's just one thing that differentiates the roads in Uyo from other city roads in Nigeria, Uyo roads are marked.

UYO
www.nairaland.com/attachments/725021_uyo_jpg449eb4698d0dcfacec2af89e36791acc

New roads are marked - at least in Uyo, Calabar and Benin.

There's another difference between roads in Uyo and most places (Lagos for example), they are built to the highest standard. They are built to last and if you notice there is no exposed storm drain, everything is underground - as it should be.

That tower is whack,i ply through that road wen ever am heading to enugu,umuahia is rated beyond par

fheyizsmart:
THESE GUYZ NEEDS SOMEONE TO REMOVE THEIR BLINDFOLD, WHAT IS SPECIAL ABOUT ALL THESE COMPARED TO EDIFICES IN OTHER STATES.

apart from Lagos, Umuahia is more beautiful than the rest south west cities.

it is a bold lie, Umuahia is better than many cities in the south west.
