Owerri: Roads And Roundabouts Flooded by Nobody: 9:18am On Jul 05, 2018
A facebook user shared pictures of flood in Owerri, along Okigwe Road yesterday. Flood covers roundabouts and roads as a result of heavy downpour.

The user took a swipe at the Governor when he said sarcastically that "Our Governor is working" .

the rain was too much yesterday, and when did you take this pic. because I passed this area 25munites after the rain didn't see this flood, so did you snap while it was raining or after.

Not a new thing. Flooding is a global thing. It has happened in major cities across the world, so Owerri own is not an exception. Even though I know say Rochas na cow.

I remember my days at FUTO.....Owerri a small town has been a flood zone especially around "New market" in serious rain times because of blockage of the drainage system caused by market traders and consumers and no great sanitation techniques. Not only in okoroawusa tenure but far back 10yrs ago.

Someone need to change tinz

This present administration has on several fronts proved to be a step back from what we used to have.

Just look at this same government house roundabout that was constructed a long time ago by Mbakwe, complete with giant drainage systems and whistling pines. One can easily see that the design was well thought out in line with peculiar weather and environmental conditions of the Southeast.

But Rochas came and in his wisdom, closed up ALL the giant drainage systems and fell all the trees, replacing them with tiny gutters that channel floods to no where and inconsequential road pillars.

I don't know if we are cursed in this part of the world. Making progress seems so unattainable even when we have several templates to borrow ideas from.

This is an unfortunate situation we have found ourselves in angry

This is not good. The drainage must have been crowded with dirt and plastic materials.
