Everywhere no be Lagos nah! Try travel small. Even up north... most roads aren't as congested as it is in Eko. Lagos is a business hub compare Abuja traffic to lagos na... wetin you dey hear na "who dey breath" grin grin.
It's like comparing traffic in Massachusettes to that of Cleveland.

Okay, I think it's one. The other is a modular refinery. Here's the brief:

Assa North/Ohaji South gas development project in Imo State, southeast Nigeria will produce 600 million standard cubic feet of gas per day, energy equivalent of about 2400 Megawatts which is enough to provide uninterrupted electricity to about 2.4 million homes

nope,it means that the Assa North project will produce enough gas to generate 2400 megawatts of electricity. It doesn't mean that a gas plant is being built.

There was a gas plant being built by Gej in egbema along with that of Alaoji ( which should have been the largest single gas plant in Nigeria in terms of output). It's turbines already arrived Nigeria but Rochas and his war with Gej hindered completing it under the Nipp project.
unfortunately Gej lost and Apc came to be. Unsurprisingly the last of the power plants (one in the Sw and that of egbema) was totally abandoned while Buhari adopted building 3 mega gas plants up North to be fed by the AKK gas pipeline project under construction.

one of the reasons Rochas deserves whatever he gets

So what exactly correlates the show of roads and houses to impact of insecurity? I expected the OP to show a current picture of Owerri nightlife which in fact is bubbling cause Port-Harcourt is on curfew. Much of the night rollers in Port-Harcourt are now spending their weekends in Owerri

Owerri is more beautiful and developed than Enugu but you won't hear them making the noise Enugu peeps make because of Independence Layout, Trans Ekulu and New Haven.
