A Customary Court in Arochukwu local government area of Abia state still bears Imo on its signboard 29 years after Abia was created, ABN TV's finding reveals.

The military junta under Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida had in 1991 created Abia from Imo State.

Since the creation of the state however, no major renovation has taken place in the court, leaving it dilapidated state even as the court continues to sit despite challenges.

A member of the community, Ogbonnaya Ikokwu told ABN TV that the roof of the court is collapsed, causing it to leak uncontrollably when it rains.

He further added that the colonial building does not have pews and tables apart from the ones inherited from old Imo State.

"The panel of the customary Court sit under this hash environment to hear cases without electricity, fan nor air conditioner.

"The few benches and tables inside the court were those The floor of the Court Hall and other offices are still just cemented floor with cracks all over.

"The accused and witness boxes inside the court hall looked like cages found in poultry farms. It's not funny at all" he said.

And they may be right! Who knows if Imo State is still "paying"

This is just negligence on our part. Are we saying the workers haven't been seeing the sign post? Who is the chief magistrate in this court, what state pays his allowance?

And nobody has deemed it necessary to fix this anomaly?

Hand over power to yeebohs at your peril.

There is...The difference is the boundary & every thing that happens in both jurisdiction is handled by the various jurisdictions. Imo state won't spend money building roads in Abia state, neither will Abia spend money feeding people in Imo state

Abia state don suffer sha...29 years after?

Someone's father is embezzling the money meant to renew that sign board. I won't be surprised if this runs into millions

Change of name in this case might not be necessary. I might be wrong though but some times, the caretaker of the building might not find it important to change the name.

Left to me, it's an act of history that some states were created from another states as far as they're in the same country.


Happy Sunday

Useless politicians will be allocating billions to renovate their offices and houses on a yearly basis.
You will be shocked one lawmaker's or minister's furniture allowance can renovate this small court to standard.

The level of illiteracy is appallingly high in those parts.

Arochukwu town!


A travel to this local govt will make you weep for them do to chains of neglected bad road in need of urgent attention that seems to be coming from nowhere.

People did not know that so many towns in abia state have not witnessed asphalt roads before and such town are up to 65 percent of the state towns and villages.

Nonetheless, they have been separated and each get their statutory allowance, why not do the right thing?
