South East is beautiful..
A typical street for commoners in owerri

Owerri has really gone from bad to pigsty. Abakaliki of yesterday has surpased Owerri in infrastructure and development. Owerri lacks urban planning, almost non existence of sanitation nor road sweeping. The comparison is quite impressive because with all the education imo state is yet to have a befitting state capital. Owerri has remained largely a glorified rural area full of slums. Onitsha, Enugu, Awka, Abakaliki, Asaba are the best cities in igboland.

Even Aba appears to be looking better than Owerri. Imo indigenes invest everywhere but their state. Imo needs a governor like Obiano or Soludo to bring ndi into investing and developing their state.

Owerri gone so bad, I know Abakaliki has taken over in development, but Awka need to sit up. the comparison is also an eye opener. Akuluno yet quarter of their investments are sited outside their state and igboland. Igbos should wake up!!

Sea and river ports! A state like Anambra could go into some kind of partnership with a state like Akwa-Ibom to make Onitsha a port of final destination. Containers and other goods can be shipped to Ibaka deep sea port, then transferred to barges and transported upstream to Onitsha where all the necessary customs duties and paperwork would be sorted out! This is how a true federal economy works, not having to wait for the centre to approve every breath you take…every move you make….etc (apologies to Police)!

I’d also like to see states like Anambra, Ebonyi and Enugu exploit their hydrocarbon deposits without Abuja dictating when, how or even if they are allowed to! Was watching a programme on AriseTV the other day, and one of the guests speaking to Charles Aniagolu was talking of how coal deposits in Enugu today are worth about a trillion dollars!….That is, as at the last time the quantity of coal deposits were appraised! The anchor reminded him that coal is a dirty fuel, and he was told technology exists today that can clean it up! The west industrialised powered primarily by coal, so if they now want to preach to us today on the dangers of coal to the environment and tell us to use cleaner fuels instead, that’s all well and good, but they have to pay us or compensate us in some way for not using it!

We all remember last year in Enugu, when a chamber containing natural gas was breeched while digging a borehole for water. It burnt for days before finally being put out! This is another pointer to the vast mineral resources underneath our feet that are presently either being ignored (owing to the toxic Nigerian political-economy of hate and hold-them-down), or are being exploited in a half-hearted manner…with most of the financial benefits going to Abuja or diverted to a neighbouring state as we saw in the case of Anambra!

Quite on point

Envious bitter frustrated imo man, yes over 80% of innoson motor parts are sources locally in Anambra. Take a hike if you can't come to that realisation.

If it is just importation, why hasn't anyone from your useless backward worthless shithole imo state started importing it to imo state to assemeble. Innozon is building even a big production plant at another location in Anambra and thousands of Anambra people are employed there. Bunch of wicked envious frustrated people

Envy of Anambra's success and progress is too much

Good development. Anambra leads

Anambra is doing well

Putin is in shame

Despite the huge debt, Owerri is still a slum, no almost non existence of roads, no urban planning, no drainage systems, no pipe borne water, no employment opportunities, etc. Owerri and imo state at large needs to embark on a massive urban planning and renewable. Imo is a failed state as it is right now.

Present condition of Owerri

longayink:
Anambra state debt is N77 billion
Enugu state debt is N91 billion
Abia state debt is N103 billion.
Ebonyi state debt is N76 billion

Imo state debt is N204 billion.

Anambra, Enugu, Abia, Ebonyi states each has more than two to three sprawling urban cities the state governments take care of their infrastructures. But Imo state has just one - Owerri. Where went the borrowed money?

Driving through Owerri

No one needs your validation. Abia your state is the worst and most backward state in Nigeria. You should be worried instead moving from thread to thread. You should be concerned about the terrible condition of abia state. Now that Peter Obi has given you aba pigs, Alex Otti, hope that you pigs support him

NwekereNdoki:
I like that Soludo is focusing on roads, when that is properly tackled and all the major roads in Anambra being in good shape, Anambra has what it takes to be a metropolis in SE

There's tension right now in Abuja as Nigerians are trooping to immigration office to collect international passports to enable them escape from Nigeria.

The momentum increased since the conclusion of 2023 presidential election.

Why are Nigerians running away from their country in this massive scale?
