I am from imo but truth be told, Anambra is the most developed state in igboland. Imo and Abia are the two worst states in southern Nigeria. Grgton

Owerri is more or less a glorified village littered with dilapidated roads and filthy environment.

Your analogy is very flawed

Achike Udenwa was a USA based business man.
Ohakim was Lagos born and brought up

Rochas was Jos born and brought up

Hope Uzodinma though imo state born but brought up in Lagos Nigeria.

The best state governor since 1999 is Chime Sullivan and was he was born and brought up and had his career in Enugu state.

An imo state born and brought up is yet to rule Imo state, that's why me personally is routing for Mr Frank Nneji CEO ABC group for the gubernatorial elections.

oilykid:

I think it's time who we start electing those who were born and brought up in the SE and have a sound career going on for theirselves. Maybe only them can solve the issue facing the SE.

Imo state can easily become the strongest state, economically in the Eastern Region by doing one thing.

Imo needs to link Owerri to Umuahia by rail, and eventually Owerri-Orlu (or Mgbidi)-Ontisha

That means the flow of tge majority of all commercial activity in the SE will run through Owerri and make it (and Umuahia) the connector of SE, SS, NW, and NC. This is a larger economic net than NE SW especially if the link to PH is backed by popular seaport.

But Sam Mbakwe is upgraded to International or scaled up to house the bulk to domestic and the the but depots are modernized, Owerri could suprass every city in the region and begin eyeing Lagos.

I did the math and. Rail from Owerri to Umuahia would be no less than 29-40 million USD.


If this is done, anyone that wants to access the SS, SE, NC, NW and Chad republic markets in one go will compete to be in Owerri

Your wish can happen, after all, Imo state still has Only-Owerri-Is-Imo-State type of governor, as it has had since 2007.
The deplorable conditions of urban infrastructures in Orlu and Okigwe are now a source of shame to well meaning human beings.
Why will any reasonable state governor go into building rail lines to connect Owerri to wherever, with the federal allocations to Imo state and its local government areas; whereas the two old cities in Imo state - Orlu
and Okigwe - are abandoned because no governor has emerged from either of them since 2007?

ProudImolite:
. RAIL is not what we need moreover it falls under the purview of FG. Let's look at low hanging fruits first, . Okigwe and Orlu needs to come back to life in terms of urban regeneration with a 6 lane highway crisscrossing the two towns which will empty into Owerri . Roads are the lifeline of every city ,if the roads are bad the city will die. We need a lot of critical infrastructure in Imo state

Rwanda is not an ideal place to learn about leadership , Rwanda is just a western backed white washed dictatorship cum socialist regime

Ofodirinwa:


Urban regeneration is created by rail. Enugu, Umuahia and Aba are what they are because of rail. Without rail, all 3 are villages. It's a vital ingredient to creating a modern city. If commerce is not traversing through a city, it will stay where it's at. Commerce does not travese through Okigwe. This rail can connect Okigwe to ports.

If I want to make cars, or heavy industry and there are No rails, I will never compete. If there's rail in Owerri I can build a plant of any sort in Owerri and transport costs disappear because I Canova bulk products to sea for cheap.

If I create bulk products and have to drive, on Nigerias roads, automatically I cannot make anything past a certain size or produce past a certain volume.

Importing things also becomes expensive. These are the real ingredients of the modern world. You don't have them, don't know. you need them, and are suffering from a lack of them, but at the same time complaining about what ia created from a lack of their existence.

Okigwe has no major commerce moving through it. Orlu as well. Owerri does and that is why it is what it is. You ppl think everything is a government project when 99% of cities are the byproduct of common business sense.

I want to build a factory that sells things overseas. The factory must have access to sea and rail. Unless I want to sell 10 cars a month

Nchenches:


All over the world, vehicle manufacturers transport their manufacturered vehicles by road to nearest ship or rail yard. Vehicles transport is one of the most bulky transportation business.
You don't need IMSG to build you rail lines from Owerri to wherever before you can start your vehicles manufacturing, or other industries in Owerri.
FYI, in Imo state, Okigwe is the city that's most connected by rail and important highway, thus moves more commerce than Owerri. Owerri is merely a civil service city but ballooned through the foul play of locating nearly every government institution in Owerri area.

Anyhow, for rail lines and yard in Owerri, you can as well ask the federal government to uproot the rail lines that passed near Okigwe, place the rail to connect Owerri to Umuahia or Aba rail lines, since Owerri is the only place that exists in your mindset for Imo state.

Small city Tallahassee is the capital city of Florida in the US. Florida has other giant cities. But only a most poorly educated person can suggest that Florida State governor invest the funds of the state of Florida into building all sorts of infrastructures in Tallahassee, but abandon the other towns and cities in Florida state to rot - all because Tallahassee is capital of state of Florida, all because he wants Tallahassee to compete with other giant city state capitals in the US; this is like what has been going on in Imo state since 2007 regarding Owerri versus Okigwe and Orlu. Successive governors of Imo state demolish and rebuild in Owerri, often building unwanted structures in Owerri, but common urban roads and drainages are lacking in Orlu and other urban towns in Imo state.

pandax:

Good!. Soludo is trying to make it hard for us not to re-elect him. Please he should be covering the drainages, providing walkways and planting trees. He should summon courage to demolish fences/houses if need be. Rochas did it in Owerri to expand Roads and Owerri is better for it today.He should know that we are electing Labour Party all through for Abuja and we will give APGA the local positions, if and when the time come.With Love from me
