Show Owerri photos.
Imo state is Owerri for some people.

... after all, Ihioma Road, Asika Ilobi Avenue, Owus Avenue, Alhaji Tijani Street, Enugu Road dualized by Rochas government in Orlu, as well as Okigwe’s Owerri road with the other urban roads dualized/reconstructed in Okigwe by Rochas government, have almost all gone bad to be photographed now.

Ihedioha government was on rebuilding Owerri capital city roads before his tenure ended abruptly.

Opposition forces, mostly from Owerri zone,
who are using salary payments and civil servants’ strikes as camouflage, are yet to allow the present government find its feet.

your last paragraph here is very laughable..you no serious at all

Cc: mynd44 OAM4J and there brother laslastical to carry us enter promise Land

Recently I visited the upcoming Enyimba mall
And watched the investor interview online
Where he Said he has been hearing bad new about ABA (cos he was a Nigerian in diaspora) and therefore he suspended his upcoming investment since then, not until he came back to Nigeria and visited ABA, he was schocked (he was expecting slums, unplanned settlement and bad City roads but he was disappointed ) seeing this he hurriedly resumed his suspended investment, and he is speedily moving fast in construction (even when some part of the building where destroyed and looted during End SARS sagas).
So very soon checkbest l.t.d will soon finish there upcoming mall.

where did you see the video?

Lord bless you... This is why we Anambra and Anioma especially Enuani think alike and inter marry.... We are cousins and we look at things from the same page

I am an Nnewi man marrying an Anioma lady , many of us in Anambra are more comfortable marrying from Anioma in short we prefer marrying Asaba, Illah, Ogwashi, Ubulu , Ukwuani etc people due to cultural similarity

Look at the way you analyse it.... Lord bless you

GOVERNOR HOPE UZODIMMA'S STRATEGIC ENGAGEMENTS WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT YEILDS INFRASTRUCTURAL DIVIDENDS.

As against the back drop of ceremonious claims on association with the Federal Government by the previous administrations of Imo State, the Shared Prosperity administration of His Excellency the Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma has fruitfully been engaging with the Federal Government for visibility in Imo State, project-wise.

The latest to the records being the Federal Executive Council (FEC) approval of N16.7B for the total rehabilitation of Ihiala-Orlu-Nkwerre-Umuduru road.

This landmark achievement of the shared prosperity government is coming barely a year into his administration and this project, indeed, stands conspicuously as one of the major FG road projects in Imo state since 2010.

Recall that, His Excellency the Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma has constantly made it known that his affiliation and association with the Federal Government would yield fruitfulness to the State.

Governor Hope Uzodimma is also in touch with the Federal Government on improved speed for the ongoing work on Aba-Owerri road and other FG projects within the state.

Worthy appreciation to the Federal Government for this monumental project. His Excellency the Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma would continue to attract FG visibility in the state for improved development.

There is a reason why roundabouts are used to control traffic at major road junctions in 3rd world countries more than traffic lights. ~` LACK OF CONSTANT ELECTRICITY !

Roundabouts don't need electricity to function and traffic will always move as long as people obey a simple rule~ Yield for traffic on your RIGHT Side!

If we remove these roundabouts and put normal T-junctions with traffic light or Police who will not be there every hour of the day or traffic lights that will break down after 3 months, we are courting trouble. The traffic that will develop as a result of failure of traffic lights will be out of this world. That is why i always prefer roundabouts to be made bigger to solve traffic problems, not removed totally. Or you build a flyover on that junction and solve the problem permanently.

in nigeria it is yield for the traffic on the left side

Abagworo:


Ihedioha is a very stupid man. He recovered his father not Eastern Palm which ownership is clear and he couldn't prove otherwise. Ihedioha remains the most useless Governor in history of Nigeria based on his inglorious 7 months of utter destruction without remorse. He slapped Okorocha's daughter and his brainless supporters clapped but will they clap when Uzodinma slaps Ihedioha's daughter?

Ihedioha should have started work from the onset and continued with Okorocha's programs and projects but he chose to try as much as possible to blackmail and erase Okorocha's works to the extent of demolition, renaming and reintroduction of street markets to pacify his unintelligent supporters. By the time Uzodinma came on board Ihedioha had already gone far in his destructions and I thank God for ending Ihedioha's horrible stay in a Ben Johnson way.

It will take time for Uzodinma to return Imo at least to the level it was as at May 2019. As at then Okigwe town had dual carriage major road with functional solar streetlights but today Okigwe is a dusty town with cut and join roads. Even Owerri the State capital is no longer lit at night like it was in 2019 because Ihedioha destroyed all the beautiful streetlights installed by Okorocha to the joy of his brainless supporters.

I pray for Uzodinma to succeed.

lol at uzodinma succeeding..such a wasted hope after Okorocha's disaster

SmartPolician:



He's gradually taking the path of Rochas Okorocha aka the con artist.

Someone should ask Abagworo to explain to us what happened to Imo Air. Ibom Air is now planning to start connecting Enugu passengers to Lagos.

How Rochas Okorocha degenerated from a popular philanthropist to a full-blown fraudster beats my wildest imagination. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

before he entered politics how did hope make his money? We shouldn't be surprised

OruExpress:



Yes it actually will make it cheaper. Also, again, you don't build with anticipation of remaining poor, that is how you end up with 1 functioning seaport serving 180,000,000 people. Many of the people on Nigeria's roads should and can be in the air. This takes pressure off the roads and reduces the amount of repairs they need, accidents we have, traffic jams, and scheduling disasters.

Lets be smart. A flight from Lagos to Owerri by Air Peace is roughly 27,000. A drive from Abia to Lagos is roughly the same when you factor gas, food and having an assault rifle pointed in your face for bribes 18-27 times if it's December. Not factoring wear and tear from bad roads, getting stuck etc. And tens and thousands of people drive from Abia to Lagos yearly. Not to mention goods brought in at the port that also needs to be driven. So what demand will an airport in Abia lack?

But if everyone that wants to fly from Abia, everyone that wants to fly from Imo and everyone that wants to fly from Anambra all have to go to Owerri to fly, you can image the impact on the cost of a ticket.

We can't approach development with the mentality of underdevelopment.

lol this your economics no follow...you build up wealth from bottom to top and not the other way around..you are also comparing about apples and oranges with the airport and seaport comparison..obviously nigeria ought to have at least 4 to 5 functioning seaports along it coast which in turn ought to be all connected to rail(freight more importantly for mass evacuation of goods)

OruExpress:


if 10% of Nigerians aren't poor, that's 18,000,000 people. That's the population of the Netherlands which has 28 airports in a landmass the size of Kaduna State.

We need to re-frame our mentality about airports. It's a bus station for airplanes and the more you have the better for everyone. Maintenance on 1 airport and the entire SE has to go to Lagos to travel. Nigerians pay more to fly than any other people in the world because we think Airports are at a similar caliber of rarity as a nuclear power plant. If you have airport options it stops being something exclusively for 'the rich', so consider that as well.

please airports are seen as exclusive for the rich here because the average person is poor not because there isn't proliferation of airports around the country..building airports all round the country isn't suddenly going to make air travel cheap or affordable..you are simply going to create many redundant and underutilised airports..you want some majority of people can afford and like to use? Extensive rail system

OruExpress:


Not only do you build with anticipation of being poor forever, Nigeria's population is not poor. Or better said, there are enough wealthy people in Nigeria to equal to total population of other countries.

please nigerias population is largely poor abeg..it is not even debatable

Coldie:

This act needs to stop. Seriously almost every meter u go u see an autonomous community with it's own king. The moment a village is becoming developed and maybe one clan is doing better than the other but the other clan is holding leadership. Next thing u know the clan doing better starts advocating to form it's own autonomous community.

This act really needs to stop, this proliferation of autonomous community is part of what's finishing land in our region.

If for example a community of 50 plots of land with amenities like church, community hall, palace, houses scattered within it, since the community has a large land mass those amenities will be scattered and their would still be lots of land for other things in the area example agriculture since it's a rural area.

But once that community divides into maybe 2 u have 2 autonomous communities and they start building their own separate Hall's, churches palace, market etc. The land keeps diminishing with no real added value to it

i totally agree with you..very useless and myopic situation

Yes now. It will be a fight of 4 men against 1 tiger.

do you know how strong a tiger is?do you even know tiger( bengal and siberian ones) are actually bigger than a lion?do you know about reflexes of an ordinary cat let alone bigger cousins like jaguar lion and tiger? Look if bjorn is without any weapon that encounter wouldn't last more than 15 mins ( if the scenario if fight to the death)..do you know a tiger claw can reach 8 to 10cm in length?..you know how long that is for a claw right?

Thank God you said against a man. Bjorn is not a man but a superhuman.

BrutusOj:
Stop it, a single tiger or lion can't bring down a giraffe. We over rate them, they don't go for haunting individually, if they do, it's either by a surprise attack on some of those other bigger animals like buffaloes, elephants and giraffe. I have seen on natgeo where a bull chased two tigers away and they ran like house cats. They behave like this our Nigerian herdsmen who attack innocent villagers at night in groups.

please tigers hunt individually..the 2 hunting you watched is actually an aberration

People are funny sha..an unarmed man stands no chance against a leopard let alone a jaguar or lion..i no even wan talk tiger own
