I think Rochas or any subsequent Imo governor should try and replicate the Port-hacourt Pleasure park in Owerri. That will be a great addition to the city.

This will be a game changer for the SouthEast , Thank God imo pioneered it and i am hoping other capitals will follow suit to save land for agriculture, The East should outlaw the construction of low storey buildings and bungalows both in the city centres and outskirts.

But there are several parks in Owerri already and the palm beach resort is ongoing as well at Nworie bank. What Owerri needs now is demolition or refurbishing of all city houses to 21st century standard or for the poorer ones to repaint their faded houses.

I am not against demolishing slums and shanties, but NO HOME must be demolished because it has architecture of the 1960 or 1970s. It is our heritage to still see those old designs and how we have evolved. Therefore, Owerri does not need to demolish any properly built houses. Africans always believe in destroying the old, instead of building anything new. There is ample land at Naze, at Amokorhia, at Nekede and other outskirt suburbs that can be planned and developed into modern Owerri. Everything must not begin from Orlu road and end in Douglas road. Even US cities as Miami, Atlanta or Los Angeles are still growing in the suburbs without the destructive idea of always demolishing the achievements of the past to a questionable "progress" today.

Just build more wide dual carriage ways in the suburb areas and develop the places as you did in new Owerri and stop demolishing peoples homes.

Sensible input. I totally agree with this.
Let the old evolve with the new. If the owners of these old buildings feel the need to demolish them and rebuild, so be it.
Government MUST NOT destroy them under any circumstances. Cities and towns grow at the pace and capacity of its inhabitants. The most important thing is to have a master plan in place for the developing suburbs, else in the next few decades, they will become an eyesore.

Okorocha has wasted 8yrs years doing nothing other than incurring a heavy debt of over 250billion on Imo state. Below are the only completed projects by Okorocha. #FACT


He was even proud taking VP on inspection. LOL

OreMI22:


So who are the next people Rochas will mould?
Buhari? El-Rufai or Abacha?

Has somebody noted that Dee Sam Mbakwe is still conspicuously absent there? Ojukwu isn't there neither is Michael Okpara or other legendary Igbo leaders.
No need to mention cream of Igbo academia who have been severally honored abroad. NONE of the heroes there are even from Imo State! So Imo state has never produced a hero before?

In contrast, see who states promote their own history and allow people to understand the journey of their state from inception till date. Sometimes i ask myself why we have some of the dullest rulers in the the SE?

Guy I wish you reside in ph to see the garbage dump you call pleasure park.
A swampy area with stagnant water was cleared and grasses scantily planted alas the modocre of a governor called it pleasure park

Afam4eva:

I was there a little over a month ago and i thought it was particularly impressive.
