Permit me to share some from Onitsha

Onitsha..

ChimaAdeoye:


The worst mindset of Africans is that "GOVERNMENT" must do everything. Including sweeping their compound and planting trees and flowers for them.

Our people must change the mindset of building nice houses without any sort of landscaping with flowers and trees. It is partly a way i still differentiate houses built by stark illiterates who don't quite understand the importance of trees and flowers in having clean air, environmental aesthetics and the good health.

This is not a matter of African Mindset. Go back and look at the pictures clearly, you will see the distance between the houses and the roads is much. The land bought by the owners of the houses does not include those areas close to the main road so why exactly should they be the ones to plant the trees there? Even the inner streets don't have tarred roads. Do you expect the house owners to start planting trees in a tight untarred street?
As I said earlier, this is not a matter of African mentality because Onitsha GRA has tree-lined streets. The government must be directly involved in other parts of Onitsha because this is the main road we are talking about here.

Exercise in futility. Another lame argument.

Oga, I am not arguing with you. Just keep waiting for Obiano to plant flowers and trees around and in front of your house. You will also wait for the next Governor and the next and the next. One day you will be waiting for President of Cameroon to come and plant flowers and trees for you.

I think both of you are making equally good points. It should be the responsibility of both the property owners and the government.

Individuals should plant flowers in front of their properties but when it comes to public areas, it’s the responsibility of the local or state government.

Housing development on the rise in Enugu

raker300:
this is picturesque.

The serendipity of developments in Igbo land shows how great we are.

We need to usurp the bad images circulating on social media maligning Igbo land and replace them with this more wonderful images

This una kind of development is not something you should brag about to be honest with you.

Development should be encompassing. Industrial revolution, agricultural belts and large processing plants. Any development that does not impact the per capital income of the ordinary man is a waste.

Real estate and housing are not the key indices to development. Only greedy estate developers like you will beat their chest and call this development. How about the common man on the streets, the graduates, the jobless youths, the lady engaging in prostitution, the young boy engaging in yahoo yahoo, or the ones running overseas to spoil the image of the country with shady deals. The lack of jobs in Igboland is creating a mass exodus of our people to other lands.

Shame on you for bragging with real estate as development. You hardly show latest industries springing up. In fact many of you don't drive joy in showing the little industrial efforts in Igboland. I hardly see you post Aba shoe shops, I don't see small scale poultries or pig farms, I don't see you post small palm oil mills, I don't see cottage industries, I hardly see you post rice farms and rice mills, I hardly see you post cashew plantations etc. All I real estate and houses springing up everywhere.

What then is development? Is it the development of Ego Mbute? Make money at all cost and come home to brag about the number of estate one has built? If you are talking about development then tell people the Igbo story. The story of young boys in Aba sewing shoes for export to Gabon. The story of the Onitsha boys casting heavy duty body's for mack trucks. The story of the Abakiliki boys farming their hands all seasons to export rice to Cameroon.

Rather than jump up and down shouting development, you should use this page to showcase not just roads, or housing but also the entrepreneurial spirit of Ndigbo.

How about the health care facilities? I hardly see you post world class hospitals and pharmaceutical companies. You even hardly post tech establishments of Igbo people, as a way of drawing their attention to bringing part of their IT to Igboland.
