Eze china road and projects. Just imagine what a governor constructed for his people and named it a tunnel? This man has finished my darling state. There's nothing that this man does in Imo state that lingers...419 Governor

Let me reveal part of why I'm supporting Biafra.
No hatred please.
A bit long but beneficial for your vigilance. I'll summarize.
Apart from the genuine reason that self determination is a welcome idea to me and that the whimsically forced union of the independent regions was without consultation with the local potentates, I have other (maybe personal) reason I seriously believe we should allow Igbo's to go.
Let's not force it, it's just not working please.
I'd begin with what I saw some months ago at Ladipo car-parts market.
I took my Toyota Sienna for service and my mechanical engineer decided we should go to Ladipo market to buy the necessary parts.
I agreed.
When we entered the market, I saw many things. These boys are the ones making most of these things with inferior materials by themselves. Infarct, they also took dead parts, muffled some things inside with fake chemicals, spray them paints and voila, they package it as new ones again.
Another time, I took a Volkswagen Golf 3 I just bought for sake of doing only short distance wakawaka, to the same Ladipo market to buy "catalyst" as my engineer called it.
The prices ranged from 8k to 25k for that model of car.
I went for the unit sold at 18k because I felt that would be close to the better and match effectively as average.
After buying and a panel beater was still helping to fix it, I went back there to find a local canteen I had seen around selling Fufu and Eba. The canteen has pieces of net used as demarcation to form of walls which allow for breeze and also enables see-through.
I saw through, another shocking revelation of how these boys were slicing up empty pots, loading copper materials inside and packing the both ends in the pots with tiny sheet of the catalyst. Then they seal it up. What this means is that 80% of the content is the copper material, but if you look from both ends of the sealed pot, you'll see catalyst!
When I challenged one of them about the daylight fraud, he said, unconvincingly; "if we call big price for una to buy full catalyst, you go fit pay?". I nagged, wailed, wailed and wailed but I was almost becoming nuisance. They were all the same doing it in the market and gave me a dismissive shrug; the kind that street boys call "kò Kan ayé".
I later returned for some discreet recording of their fraudulent operations, but the gadget containing that piece of footage and other works was later stolen (another story). But that's not where I'm going.
Tonight, I escaped untimely and avoidable deat by chance/grace/luck -whatever!
I just picked my small Benz CLK from a mechanic shop. I had complained about a sudden strange noise at the front absorbers. After he examined it, he recommended changing the tie rods, ball joints, linkage and some other parts in that system. He told me about a complete pack that contains everything along the steering line as against buying the identified units in pieces.
I preferred the complete pack.
He told me about new one versus tòkunbò.
I preferred the new one.
I did because he told me the new one is original and has not been used, even though it's more expensive.
That was 2 days ago.
I picked the car this afternoon.
I had only driven to Berger from Akoka and was returning, the new complete pack rod broke while I just turned the steering to enter the road from a side I had pulled up. No motion yet; I wasn't speeding and had not entered any craters on the road. Nothing at all that could have triggered a fracture.
I quickly called the mechanic to come and "see the life outside" of the new thing he purchased for me.
When he arrived and saw it, he opened his mouth wide agape.
He examined the rod properly again and confirmed it could only be Aba-made.
I actually saw when he first brought the complete unit before installing. It was packed in a shiny transparent nylon just like the original. He confirmed it's the usual way the product is packed by the maker, but this particular unit, examined after the incident, is an imitation put in the same pack.
He called the seller he bought from immediately. Guess what the seller said; "that means e don enter pothole with the thing! Let him go to church tomorrow and do testimony".
Even if I entered pothole, the old one that was only giving a mildly strange sound NEVER fractured or broke off completely as this supposed new one that hasn't done 150 kilometers
I don't know how many victims they must have killed by selling their Aba made imitations. And those that narrowly escaped must have been "doing testimony" in churches over avoidable or unwarranted crises such as this one.
Please let's all come out and support them to go to their own way. Then, we shut our borders against imitations and fake products. These things should be limited to Aba, Onitcha, Owerri, etc. I also learned they make imitations of the red wines claimed to have been imported. Same way, people must have been consuming fake drugs and dying slowly or quickly.
Enough is enough please, you guys should koman be going to your Biafra land.
We're not doing again, please.
PS: I have great Igbo friends, but this doesn't justify for the acts of the non-challant, fatally fraudulent, kidnapping rogues who care less about lives of others for sake of "making (blood) money.
Segun O'Law.

haba, thats a joint where two slabs meet, the engineer should go and cover it up with a filler.it must be given way due to weather condition.


Truth
When I see them I easily identify them because I'm one of them - An Engineer
You reason like one.
I'm never a fan of Okorocha or APC but truth be told, this has nothing to do with quality. It's inevitable in civil construction

To start with its not going to be solved by your method because all I see there is a failing pre cast slab. The contractor should have paid more attention on the either diameter or quality of the steel they used to reinforce the internal beam.. Remedy is to dismember and do a proper steel work there. Thanks.

I was born & bred in Owerri.

In my lifetime, I've never seen a governor as useless as Rochas Okorocha.

Never ever gets done properly except to owe workers & pensioners..

Imagine an underground tunnel just constructed barely 2yrs ago has given way just like that.
