 Politics / Re: Few Pics From Imo State by amakenny: 8:49pm On Jan 29, 2015 |
RareDiamond: Imo guber candidates complain they cannot find any modern venues outside Owerri for political campaign. Udenwa built a modern stadium in Orlu, Okorocha literally destroyed it; built Heroes Square in Owerri. Ohakim designed a standard stadium ready for take off in Okigwe, but could not build it before he left; Okorocha built another venue, Ikemba Square, in Owerri. There is only Dan Anyiam Stadium Owerri in all of Imo state. Next? |

RareDiamond: With new Owerri City schools, new public squares, mew layouts with new roads, new state library, new government house, new education institutions, new hotels, rebuilt colleges, new drainage works and bridges, new cancer diagnosing centre, new Ochiedike renal disease diagnostic centre, etc. etc. etc, our capital city has witnessed mega development under Okorocha government. If most of the people in Owerri capital city vote for Okorocha next election, he shall win second term. 2 Likes |

Becos he wants to govern whole Imo state as it is now, Emeka Ihedioha in 12 years in the House of Reps never signed onto having a new state created from Imo state. He stopped it instead. Lately, Ihedioha toured all of Nigeria with his constitution amendment committee and asked Nigerians to say yes or no for new states. Majority said yes. Ihedioha came back to Abuja and told Nigerians that he found that LGAs that asked for new states did not have elected councilors, and he dismissed creation of new states with that. Question: Before he toured Nigeria to ask yes or no for new states, did Ihedioha not know that LGAs that asked for new states did not have elected councilors? IHEDIOHA MOVED AROUND IN THE HOUSE OF REPS FOR 12 YEARS BUT WITHOUT DIRECTION. Not campaigning for any candidate, but Capt Iheanacho of APGA may even lead Imo state better with direction, not PDP's Ihedioha. |

The process for creating new states was deliberately made difficult by the people who created the states to favour their areas at the expense of SE. A BETTER LAW MAKER FROM SE heading constitution amendment committee should have insisted on remaking the process by amending it first. But Ihedioha based his denial of creation of new states on that same old rules. HE NOW WANTS TO COME TO GOVERN imo state. Oche na ndi mmadu bu ewu? asha80: |

Hard drug would kill a person before it could influence the person to stab dad, and go further to fetch a cutlass to ensure that dad was completely hacked to death. That a dad used wooden spoon on a son could not have made a normal son, even if drugged, to kill dad that way. The dad must have given the son the teeth bite when dad became helpless as the son was battering him. 1 Like |

Abagworo: Yes bitter, but not compromised. Because Okorocha is looking down and letting down on Orlu after all the efforts we made to ensure that he won the election in 2011, the promises he made and our expectations are not any where near fulfilled. Few street lights and broad ways that shall fade away the next seasons hardly constitute long-term development. Presence of pipe-borne water, hotels and sports complex, tertiary institutions in a place do constitute development. By the way, when is Oguta Marine University promised by Okorocha turning out its first graduates, Abagworo? Empty promises and deceptive steps that shortchange one's primary support base are never the trade marks of any successful politician. We are not anti-Okorocha, until we are assured, perhaps mid-year, that he is not completing the fulfillment of the promises he made to Orlu. It may interest you to go through the attached below. They were part of the sustained efforts - often in the highest places at the most appropriate time - for Okorocha's bid for governor before the elections of 2011. Some of the interventions were made at the most critical times when PDP was intent to shortchange Okorocha the candidate.

chino11:They paste Owerri pictures here as they seem to believe that Owerri is all that exists in Imo state - apart from that "work-in-progress" photo in Orlu as pasted by Abagworo. Truth is that there are hardly any new pics to show about Orlu. Reason is that the roads started by Okorocha here remain uncompleted. Recently, street light on Amaigbo/Ihioma Roads and part of Owus Avenue measuring a total of a few meters was commissioned by governor. That's all - and as Orlu has never seen street light before, there were jubilation among the uninitiated. Perhaps for pics from Orlu, one may have to paste pics of a destroyed sports stadium and land cleared two years ago for new one, land cleared two years ago for Prince Hotel, Orlu urban drainage gutter dug and abruptly stopped by Okorocha govt, with erosion water channeled to a temporary hole dug behind and very close to St. Josephs Catholic Church - a potential hazard waiting to claim victims. |

Abagworo: I am not a "Guy" in the sense which that word is understood in Nigeria - fraudsters. I tell the truth. But like a "Guy," you have diverted the subject of my argument with your statement: "This thread is not about your politics of Ohakim or whatever non-entity but about a State which you claim to be yours." I do not represent anything Ohakim represents. Ohakim is gone - not likely to ever come back to govern Imo state again. My stand is that Gov. Okorocha may end up doing a deficit development in Orlu - destroying more and building less here. And of all these, if the Orlu sports stadium destroyed under Gov Okorocha is not rebuilt - or new one completed - by end of this year, a scandal of great proportions is most likely to follow suit. For now, some powerful youth organisation in Orlu zone has blacklisted Okorocha on its listings of men of honour. This stadium matter is one of the factors. It did not cost peanuts to build the stadium.  1 Like |

abagoro: You made a blanket statement of insincerity. Issue I dwelt on was the destroyed Orlu Sports stadium, but you completely evaded discussion on that, but instead pasted a picture of new road and street light of Orlu. I can tell you one thing: Okorocha brought street lights and dual carriage streets to Orlu for the first time. And people out here - including Yours Truly - hail him for that. But note must be taken: the total length of these roads built in Orlu urban so far may not add up to 3km. Most amazing: Amaigbo Rd that has developments up to 3km frm the city centre was stopped with a roundabout after around 350 meters from the city centre after St. Joseph's church - that's all. In essence, add the costs of building and lighting up these few roads in Orlu by this govt, the total cost may not reach half of what it did cost previous govts to build the Orlu sports stadium which is now destroyed under this govt. Therefore, unless the Orlu sports stadium is restored before the end of this year, a great scandal is building up for Okorocha-led govt. Again, without completing the Orlu urban drainage project started by late Gov. Ikwechegh, these roads built by Okorocha-govt shall be washed away very soon - the same manner the roads built by PDP govts here have mostly been washed away. So whither the hoopla about urban development in Orlu? |
| Politics / Re: Few Pics From Imo State by amakenny: 12:02am On Jan 06, 2014 |
Abagworo: I am on ground and understand the issues at stake here more than you. Before Okorocha came on board as Imo state governor, then Orlu modern sports stadium hosted international club football competition - that was when Dan Anyiam stadium, Owerri, was undergoing major repair works - when Ohakim was governor. Orlu sports Stadium was completely built with modern flood lights by 2007 - save for tartan tracks that were about to be laid by the contracting firm before Ohakim came to office. The stadium was dedicated to Sam Okwaraji and commissioned by OBJ in May 2007. Okorocha came in as governor in 2011 and instituted a probe panel on the stadium - for who knows why. Thereafter, demolition of the stadium started. It was within that period that demolition started under Okorocha govt - between January to February 2012 - that a team of Nigeria Premier League stadia assessors declared the Orlu stadium unfit for Premier league soccer competitions. By the way, what is there to defend in the fact that it is about two-and-half years since more than half a million youths in Orlu zone have not engaged in their usual zonal sports competition due to lack of stadium complex - as before Okorocha came to office? Never happened since Nigeria got independence in 1960, about which time the Orlu township stadium came into existence. Common sense dictates that before the old stadium is demolished, a new one must be in place. But only a foundation block laid in Orlu about two years ago for a new stadium is all there is there. This is no politics: Okorocha has to restore the old stadium as it was the day he came in to office - or complete a new one before this year ends. For your info, the Youtube video of Orlu you pasted has been in existence in the last four years. Unless you want to let us believe Orlu-Owerri Rd in Owerri is what you have have as Orlu. 2 Likes |

IGBO-SON:No work on site of proposed Prince Hotel, Orlu, since one and half years ago when Speaker Uwajimogu laid the foundation. Unfortunately, it was recently relayed to Imo state House of Assenbly during the last budget presentation that work on Prince Hotel Orlu, and Orlu sports stadium were progressing. Not true. Orlu stadium remains destroyed under Okorocha govt, it shall be Nigeria's scandal of the century if Okorocha leaves office without a new stadiuum or old one rebuilt in Orlu. |
| Politics / Re: Few Pics From Imo State by amakenny: 1:27am On Jan 04, 2014 |
Abagworo: It is shifting their responsibilities to a latter govt - I mean, today's govts that ignore the matter of public water supply for those they lead. Building of Orlu regional water scheme long proposed by IMSG was next in line of water schemes to be built in Imo state when Okorocha came into office. But Rochas came to office and immediately declared that his govt had privatized water supply in Imo state. Ohakim was promising inquiring people that his govt would start Orlu water scheme - until he was swept out of office. Owerri and Okigwe have billions of naira worth public water supply infrastructures lying under their soil surfaces today. Any govt can put in less to reactivate the water infrastructures in Okigwe and Owerri. Gov Rochas Okorocha ought to denounce this privatization of water supply thing. In the developed world where private companies take charge of city water supply, govts do not just hands off the matter. The city of Orlu is about half a million population, how can a city be built without urban water supply system? Private water boreholes are not pure sources of water for domestic use. |

Since the day IBB threw his desires to Tambuwal, Tambuwa took the challenge from IBB, and has not stopped. Tambuwal may metarmorphose to IBB presidency in APC.

TIMIK WAS FINANCIALLY MOBILIZED, IT SCRAPPED TWO SIDES OF THE OLD ROAD; TIMIK HAS SINCE DISAPPEARED FROM THE SCENE. Ehem, FRIENDS OF OKOROCHA, PLS TELL HIM THAT IF THE PRINCE HOTEL IS NOT BUILT BEFORE THE NEXT ELECTIONS, IT IS NOT PDP THAT WILL SACK OKOROCHA, BUT THE PEOPLE OF ORLU WHO GAVE HIM HIGHEST SUPPORT AND VOTES IN 2011 SHALL SACK HIM FROM POLITICS.

novaman: We need the country Nigeria governed by pro-people leaders to make the country greater, it is those who wants to become Masters that are plotting to make us feel divided, Onu and Enu means the same word in Igbo and Yoruba let nobody deceive you, because the Lord who made so did it deliberately for rediscover by ourselves through UNITY. LUCKY So how do you get pro-people leaders that can govern Nigeria and bring the best to its people? Sack Jonathan or dump him 2015? When ypou do either of this, a worse than Jonathan is (s)elected to take over. Fact is that the unitary system of governance guarantees that good caliber of leaders can NEVER be elected to govern Nigeria. Leaders are chosen and imposed on Nigeria. Since return to democracy in 1999, people have yearned for reforms of the failed unitary govt system which breeds hyper corruption and do-or-die approach (political instability) to capturing power at the over-empowered central govt. But the Caliphate section of Nigeria has been using an undue legislative over-representation which it derives from undue large number of states and local govt areas which it gained from its military dictators to discourage constitutional changes in the political structure and unitary system of government in a pluralistic country like Nigeria. As everything is failing in Nigeria, it may pay you better to avoid making criminals of groups who would want to make it in smaller countries. At the end, you are free to opt into any large group to get your desired giant country of the black world. |

And tell your brothers to leave every inch of yoruba landNo be talk only for mouth, any day Yoruba realise that Nigeria can never become a nation and declare to opt out of One Nigeria, the sufferings of Yorubas and most or all groups in present Nigeria shall be minimized. Northerners would never fight all departing southern groups for one Nigeria. North would contemplate suicide fighting groups in order to have one Nigeria back. Above all, north mostly caused the disunity and consequent fall of one Nigeria. When Nigeria splits, any non Yoruba living in Lagos or anywhere in a new Yoruba country must either live according to the conditions stipulated by the new Yoruba country government, or be put inside prison. It is no use using subtle blackmail to cajole people to continue to hold strongly to the 100 Years experiment on One Nigeria which has not served the majority of Nigerians well. By the way, people from south can not willingly go to live in the north of Nigeria again, so why play to sustain such a country like Nigeria as one? |

tensor777:For pecuniary reasons that profit you, you gloss over the reality that Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa/Fulani enclaves are three highly populated enclaves many of which had administrative structures before the colonialists came. And that peoples in the enclaves have life aspirations, often not similar, but sometimes conflicting with one another, and that the reality of that has made Nigeria a dysfunctional country. For now, your non breakable cord forcefully tying all the nations in Nigeria together is apparently your Abacha-Abdusallam 1999 constitution? Sorry. You also gloss over the fact that before the arrival of colonial masters to what is now called Nigeria a few years ago, the three aforementioned enclaves existed independent of one another without any governmental links that tied them together. Look, Nigeria's diversity has made the country fail to care for the good of 160 mllion people in it. Dividing Nigeria into as many smaller manageable countries as the people may demand is ideal for now. Doing this must surely bring succour to the people in today's Nigeria. It is no longer enough to intimidate people who come from the smaller tribes with the lies that they shall have worse conditions than in Nigeria should they form their own new countries. You cannot war it out against others without having yourselves bruised to no recognition. This is 2013, but you are counting on the past. Switz population is not up to half the population of nearby Germany, but landlocked Switzerland with no oil and gas deposits is about the most wealthy country in Europe.
