The giant strides of APC rule is finally coming to light!

God bless Imo State!

While other South East States were voting to despise APC at the expense of competence and accountability, Imo state was voting in the line of what’s best for them.

By the way, I am from Imo State (before someone will call me an Ogbomoso man 😅)

It Has nothing to do with the political party in charge. The investments that shot up Imo state GDP started before uzodinma was declared governor by Supreme Court in the previous election.

It started during Okorocha, and that still makes it one of giant strides of APC

Repeated consolidation of predecessors vision.

APGA has never been know for growth. Where is Anambra which happens to be their pilot state?

Look at the development in Ebonyi in last 8 years. Anambra is still struggling to replicate such in last 16 years.

Give it to APC! It’s the best thing that happened to Nigeria in last five decades.

Yes, I see your point.

Waltersmith is taking a bold step in Imo State. God will bless their founder. The company is even getting started with that Modular Refinery because they intend to expand the capacity of the refinery and build an industrial park in the same area.

I am also keeping an eye on the Shell gas and NNPC/Seplat gas projects. These projects will transform the state, attract new investments into the state and give lots of people jobs.

Imo State hasn't been fortunate with good governors like her sister states in the region though.

Tales by moonlight 🌛.How can an elephant 🦣fly,or a crocodile 🐊climb?
I will only believe this if I come across it on other news websites or TV news channels.Is it Owerri that has nothing except hotels and hotels that will push Imo state to the third largest economy in Nigeria,or what?
But honestly the state capital generates a high volume of bleeping, with the huge numbers of hotels and nightclubs there.
As I write now,new hotels are being built somewhere in Owerri to accommodate the high volume of sex in that state.
Lol!
