The World-Class Roads In Owerri: ‘Change’ Has Indeed Come!

There is no doubt that impunity has tragically become the trademark of the political class in Nigeria, inspired by the awful followership that is bereft of the needed orientation and will to hold political office holders accountable for their perpetual failure, a situation which has reduced the nation into a jungle of impunity and a cesspool of corruption. The result is that the political class, prime enemies of the people, imposes oppression on the people without the compunctions of conscience and with no resistance on the side of the oppressed.


There is no doubt that impunity has tragically become the trademark of the political class in Nigeria, inspired by the awful followership that is bereft of the needed orientation and will to hold political office holders accountable for their perpetual failure, a situation which has reduced the nation into a jungle of impunity and a cesspool of corruption. The result is that the political class, prime enemies of the people, imposes oppression on the people without the compunctions of conscience and with no resistance on the side of the oppressed.

One of the consequential problems besetting our nation is mass ignorance amongst the people, a defect which the oppressors have utilised to their own selfish advantage.

The above leads us to the rationale for this publication. The spine-chilling Federal Roads situation in Imo State is a monumental affront on the people of that state. It is an outright concession of failure which requires no use of a microscope for confirmation. And, indeed, failure in Nigerian politics has become so commonplace that it is now a way of life, so that no eyebrows are raised when it happens.

That the Federal Government ignores the terrible state of its road in many parts of Imo State, with emphasis on Owerri North Local Government Area, remains a major mystery that might only be comprehended with the help of divinity. The videoed/pictured road published with this text is a Federal Government road in Ezeogba, Emekuku, inside Owerri, the state capital! It is a major road, on which both pedestrians and vehicles must learn the craft of swimming expertly before contemplating the idea of plying on it. The road is a national eyesore, and a confirmation that the much touted ‘change’ by the ruling APC was a tool of deception, which, not surprisingly, has remained a mirage.

Looking at the road, one is bound to conclude that that part of Owerri is under no government, or that it is a place abandoned by its government to survive on its own.

This, in any way, does not exonerate the state governor, Mr Rochas Okorocha, seeing that several deplorable state roads are prevalent in the state. Like I have written elsewhere, a government that is unable to provide such basic things as water, good roads, sound health care system, good schools, etc has no right to exist.

You may now enjoy the video/photos featuring the world-class roads in Owerri North Local Government Area

Modified:

On a serious note, isn't it the height of stupidity for anyone (especially those who supported and are shamelessly still supporting Jonathan) to blame Rochas or the present FG for the horrible state of federal roads in Imo state and the rest of the south east?

Just when you think their ignorance and pettiness can't get more absurd, they jump in with a brand new level. It defies all sound logic that the very people praying for the perpetuation of the ineffectual past administration can be this shamelessly bold to actually shift the blames of the failures of their hero to a state governor. Tufiakwa!

Truth be told, Imo State roads are in a deplorable state.
Uratta, Ihiagwa, Orji, Urualla and even some of the roads in New Owerri roads are death traps begging for attention.

What would make a married woman secretly tell her ex-lover that her new child belonged to him? Is it that she didn't know the father of her child or is it pure hatred against her husband or was she trying to dupe the lover?
