Stop being penny wise, pound foolish....its better to remove them than wasting scarce resources keeping them

massmediang:
Governor of Imo State, Emeka Ihedioha, has commenced removal of the iron bars which former governor Rochas Okorocha placed across the major streets of Owerri.

Okorocha who is now the Senator representing Imo West constituency, used the iron bars and artificial palm trees to beautify the state capital.

But Ihedioha seems to want the state capital to look different so his administration has embarked on the removal of all the iron bars across streets in the state capital. The trees are also going down one after the other.

Massmediang gathered that this action by Ihedioha is coming with mixed feelings among Imo people as some of them are happy with the action while others feel that this is tax payers’ money being wasted. Some feel that Ihedioha should face more important projects while others feel that most of Rochas Okorocha’s numerous projects, including the iron bars and artificial trees are remind them of the wasted and bad governance of the past administration and should be removed.

This beautiful city is under total destruction and heading back to the stone age.

Governance is building on your predecessor's good achievements, not the destruction of public property because of hatred and pathetic desire to fight your predecessor and destroy his achievements.

Poor people of Imo state, be careful what you wish for, enjoy your ride back to backwardness, hopefully, you'll learn from this sad experience and make better decisions next time..

Shut up

You are the one not making sense, and hat do you mean by artificial tree?

Those iron bars were defacing d state not beautifying it. U need to visit Owerri to understand my position

Is this your own definition of defacing? now Imo state is going back to stone age

If care is not taken this guy will be worse than okorocha.

backward ever, forward never people. Where is the continuity? One wasted taxpayers money to erect it, another is using taxpayers money to remove it. I understand that our politicians are clueless, but don´t they have advisers that actually are intelligent? because this is a waste of resources,

emmancipated:
I just hope that this Ihedioha doesn't turn out to be worse than Okorocha. Let him get down to business and let all these petty fights slide.

Sure this man has no program. He’s worst

What about the trees?

It seems that ds dude called Ihedioha is after witch hunting, instead of working on the manifestation of his blueprints to lift imolites from shattered economic outlook he choose otherwise. Imo I hail ooo...

Peacemaker5129:
After all they will blame Hausa and Yoruba for their backwardness

Quit sounding like a complete moro'n! This is strictly a Imo affair and has nothing to do with you, so what's the nexus between Ihedioha removing all these pretentious rubbish defacing the state capital and Hausa/Yoruba?

Are you so insecure and full of bile that you always look on Igbo affairs with bitternes....always yapping about how Hausa and Yoruba are being hard-done-by Ndigbo? I suppose, according to you the Hausa and Yoruba are minding their own business, with a saintly halo hovering over their heads, while the 'big bad Igbo' are always looking for any given opportunity to blame them for anything, and the reverse is never the case!?

I don't understand. You mean the picture below

You said "Governance is building on your predecessor's good achievements, ....."
I like the word "good" in your comment so, what will happen to the bad achievements and misdeeds?



Look, you're not from Imo State so you don't understand what's really going on there. Rochas deserves to be jailed and allow all the stolen monies and properties of the State by the Okorochas retrieved back.

He's on the right track! We wouldn't be here today if Rochas had spent the money he used buying and building all these rubbish on real development like provision of reticulated pipe-borne water supply; adequate primary healthcare; solid and durable town and rural roads (and not the substandard rubbish he built all over the state); greening up the state capital with trees; etc! If Rochas had provided real development and not spent scarce resources on all these pretentious crap like tower; fake palm trees; overhead bars; and ugly statues, Ihedioha would have have now been able to concentrate solely on real development like some of you are demanding he does!

I live in Owerri. Those iron bars were not strongly-fixed (like most of Okorocha's jobs) and they fall during heavy rain and winds, posing serious danger to motorists and pedestrians.

Ihedioha has also commenced clearing and desilting of all gutters in Owerri metropolis (something Okorocha never did in his eight-year stint as governor), but the opposition won't report that.


Those of us who live in Owerri are already seeing what the new governor is doing. Let the opposition and keyboard analysts who have never set foot in Owerri keep talking nonsense.

He should remove them ASAP. Those things are death traps. Same with the roads Rochas built. China projects with over bloated costs.

Ihedioha is already down for business considering his moves and policies since he took over. Follow Imo politics before you spit inciting comments'. Those cross bars are purely counter productive as in no meaningful investor will consider Owerri as an investment destination on the reason that haulage trucks cannot move freely. The iberiberism governor did not consider the heights of truck with containers when he devised the foolish beautification.

Considering the know fact that the past administrations projects lacks quality one fears those iron pose a threat to life of the road users as well.

Ihedioha consults before he acts , he is not like Rochas the Mr. Know it all.

So you've not been told that you only make sense when you SHUT UP.

plaindealer:



At your age, you can do better than ignorance, bigotry and illiterate talk.

Ihedioha should hit the ground running with his own projects and stop wasting time undoing what another man has done. Four years will soon go like smoke screen and there would be nothing to show. A word is enough for the wise

Irrespective of party differences, Imo state is imo sates. Governance is a continuous process, why not start from where Rochas stopped than removing those bars wasting government resources.

jlinkd78:

Defacing like this one abi

You people will be alright las las

As wasteful as some of Mr. Okorocha's initiatives were, the fact is that they were done with taxpayers money.

Might surprise you to find out how much it is costing Imo State to dismantle some of these things.

The question is: is it necessary? At this rate, it seems to me like Mr. Ihedioha will spend his tenure in reverse gear.

I hope he moves forward soon.
