By 1976 when Imo state was created, there were hardly any huge differences in the levels of urban development between Owerri and Orlu. Bad governance and primitive greed of an Imo group arrested development in Orlu.
Two governors from Orlu senatorial district reduced Orlu to rural area status.
why do you choose to be idiot I only blame those that are replying ur useless comments here why can't you go to govt house and rant ur useless ranting there. warri used to be the most developed city in bendel state before creation of delta but today u can't compare warri to asaba. Why can't we igbos get sense for once, someone from another SE state will be busy attacking his neighbouring state out of hatred or jealousy, despite that abia govt isn't doing anything in aba is aba not booming in terms of business and production what is ur orlu known for? If at all u are from imo State

sanctity454: GOV HOPE UZODIMMA SEEKS ADDITIONAL FEDERAL PARTNERSHIP
During his official visit to President Muhammadu Buhari today, Governor Hope Uzodimma briefed Mr President on the progress of work at the Oguta Seaport, a State-owned project being developed in partnership with the Federal Government.
According to Gov. Uzodimma, the detailed engineering has reached an advanced stage having concluded the hydrographical and hydrological studies.
Following the increased water volume at the Nworie River due to the performance of the Ballon Technology Flood control system, which now aggregates and empties flood water from Owerri Metropolis into Nworie River, His Excellency sought the partnership of the Federal Government in building of a Power Generating Plant at Nworie River for electricity supply to Owerri Metropolis and its environs.
Governor Uzodimma also informed the President that his government in collaboration with the Security Agencies, have tremendously controlled the security situation in the State and paved the way for improved economic activities. With newly acquired Armoured Personnel Carriers and other technology-driven gadgets by the State Government, the Nigeria Police Force and the Department of State Security would effectively cover the ten (10) Federal Constituencies in the State and greatly improve the security of lives and properties.
His Excellency, the Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma gave assurances of the continued efforts to harness available resources in building productive partnerships with the Federal Government and Private Sector for the development of Imo State and the welfare of her citizenry.

If Hope Uzodinma can achieve that oguta port, with SMICA getting international flights, I will vote again and again.
is hope uzodinma building any seaport in oguta? I hope isn't my own oguta because so far as oguta is concern there's nothing like seaport from oguta to osemoto, maybe I'm no longer in this world
SmartPolician: Look how Rochas Okorocha was busy wasting scarce state funds on substandard projects. And then, someone has the guts to say he's qualified for presidency.
Tomorrow, that con artist is made president and he will disgrace Ndi Igbo. Then, other Nigerians would say that an Igbo man was the worst president the country ever had. Well, Buhari has won that ignoble title; it should stay with Fulani.
We should be promoting people like Peter Obi, David Umahi and Sullivan Chime. People who have really shown the stuff they are made of, not a man who sees projects in his dreams and hires local contractors to build them without plans.
okorocha remain the most mumu governor look at where he constructed pedestrian bridge, look at the one at freedom road all those bridges doesn't deserve to be there. He will tell you that each of the bridges cost 1billion the way he said that each of the empty general hospitals he built cost one billion naira each, Honestly rochas is a criminal but hope isn't a saint

sanctity454: Sometimes I do ask myself why is that PH road is the most developed part of Owerri city, even though roads like onitsha road axis saw serious development before it? I need opinions on this.
Abagworo: Ebonyi State has no need for 5 flyovers not to talk of 17. I must commend Umahi for not using all these funds to buy houses in Dubai, London and Houston like his contemporaries but then it is equally a waste. The number of Ebonyi youths jumping and racing hawking in traffic should be a problem for the Governor more than flyovers. Many of those youths already know what to trade but lack capital to actualize their dreams and a little trust fund from 10 out of the 17 flyovers could have helped at least 4000 of them with over 1 million Naira as start up capital. The roads are enough

Amah70: Unfortunately, two prominent traditional chiefs of Owerri were kidnapped yesterday. It's no more Oru/Orlu/Orsu axis affair where politicians hibernating in Owerri must have believed the mayhem would be restricted to.

I tried to reach that side (40 40 junction) on Tuesday i was in owerri but there was no much time to do that. I want to see how far the denka's City project has gone
Abagworo: Obasanjo very intelligent man. The only Nigerian who was able to enter the heart of Boko Haram at its deadliest moments and come out alive. The originator of carrot and stick but can we remember Odi? Maybe it was a stick before the carrot but OBJ is far better than Buhari. As far as I can see through my future reading glasses it won't take long before this IPOB crisis will spiral into bombing of major cities across Nigeria. A new approach other than military must be used to save the day.
u are becoming more useless and stupid nowadays, u can't talkless
