KingKingKing:My brother, that is the bubble we find ourselves in. Everything in this our country is viewed with the eyes of politics. And we wonder why we are where we are. The first time I went to PH, I couldn't help myself but spit. The city did not live up to its hype. This is really a wake up call to everyone, not just the government. 11 Likes |

Lifestone:Do not mind them. As if Lagos, Ekiti, Oyo, Ogun or Osun is doing better environmentallyental. I don't know why they always writing propaganda about Rivers as if it's by force to join APC. Rubbish people. Lagos is as filthy as it can get but, the focus is on River State which is environmentally cleaner. Useless OP and useless post |

Please let's not bring politics into everything... I'm a huge fan of Governor Wike and that's because of the several road projects in Rivers state which has made driving much easier than it used to be before he assumed office, but the truth is that the garden city is fast becoming very dirty and there is need to re-strategise to find a lasting solution to it! Instead of living in denial, it's good to acknowledge that there is a problem and then tackle it! Port Harcourt residents should also help by adhering to times by which refuse can be deposited and Government agencies in charge of cleaning up this refuse should up their game and clean the place ASAP, government should also provide refuse tanks at strategic points so that people don't throw refuse on the ground... Refuse has completely covered one lane of the East west road between Eliozu and Rumuodara junction, Eleme junction is covered with refuse, Oyigbo, etc... So let's try to tell the truth and stop peanut politics!! 10 Likes |

MXrap:Why didn't u take pictures of waterlines junction, especially the bus stop area? 98% of the pictures you are taking are within an area in G.R.A which has always been clean. PH has been really dirty for some months. Imagine ppl throwing dirt in the middle of aba road. Go and take pictures of rumuola, rumuokwuta, artillery junctions, rumuomasi/elekahia road, okporo road, rumuokoro junction and stop showing us an area in GRA phase 2 11 Likes |

WisdomFlakes: OP you can just bring just Oyigbo and make a write up like that, just because you are looking for who to call a bad name, it is a major problem in this country, we have not being able to perfect the act of waste disposal, every state in this country has similar issues. |

AnthonyAk: Cosmopolitan, multi-ethnic and multi-cultural centers prospers more than cities inhabited mainly by natives. Check some of the cities in UK, US and other western Europe. Compare it with that of Eastern Europe inhabited by natives mainly. Come to Nigeria, Cities like Lagos and Abuja are inhabited by mostly by people from other states. Check also multinational companies, you see Chinese, Indians, Europeans, Americans and Africa, all working together. Each respecting one another Compare it with companies dominated by one section or natives, in fighting, same with states dominated by natives, clan clashes are very common. I love multicultural settings and institutions. Check all the United Nations establishment, do you know what it takes to be employed as a professional staff there? The organizations works so efficiently with everybody being respected irrespective of your ethnic origin. You wont see any verbal abuse. You don't know what you will do the next person will find offensive. So, there is always a mutual respect. I love staying in company of people from diverse background than staying with people from my own clan or ethnicity or religion. 1 Like |

myners007: Go and sit down my brother. If it is Ambode, would you talk like this. But because it is wike, the report is now bias. Honestly, the problem we are having in Nigeria is not from Buhari, Atiku, wike, Tinubu or any of this so call leader. The masses are the major problem. When we fail to say the truth because if hatred for a particular party or ethnic group. May God deliver us. 5 Likes |

myners007: In as much as I hate seeing post like the one the op just made, I agree with the write up 100%. This is not the Port Harcourt I grew up in. The garbage everywhere in ph today is appalling. Each time I visit uyo and come back to ph I weep at the level of degradation our dear garden city has become. Port Harcourt of today stinks with rubbish everywhere. Sad but this is the truth. Port Harcourt was truly the garden city about 18 years ago. Presently it's a gabbage city! 5 Likes |
