guy Owerri is a mess when it rains..

I rode through ihiagwa nekede Naze, down to wethral and to urata where I visited my aunt at holy family motherless baby home.. the roads are a mess.

While coming back, I followed control obinze road.. guy imo state road is a slum no cap.

All these while of dry season what were they doing?

I even saw the demolished ojukwu tunnel.. many abandoned projects..

The only smooth ride I had was obinze porthacourt road which I know is a federal road..

Try ride around Owerri when it's raining..you I'll confirm these things

we wonder who was the governor for 8 yrs �

Balogunodua:
Are those 2 countries not doing better than Nigeria

Cuba is seems to be an education(health professional hub) however can you really fuction in a in socialist setting?have you really lived it before? North Korea? Lmao please don't start

Balogunodua:
But Nigeria don't even practice socialism but mix of both capitalism and socialism which is not working due to our corrupt leaders and i only gave the guy example of countries practising socialism because he was trying to paint Awo bad and Zik to be good.

are Scandinavian countries economic socialists?No they are just social democracies..go to Cuba and North Korea for economic socialism

seankafor:
guy, how do.you feel saying these things?

it is obvious he has a subpar thinking

sanctity454:
IMSG has signed an MOU with construction giant for the total reconstruction of orlu-owerri road and owerri -okigwe road.
I which Hope adds owerri -umuahia road

you didn't name the giant construction giant..also I thought ccecc is in charge of owerri umuahia Road?

B2mario:
Nothing is wrong with the bridge, every story about the bridges and tunnels is propaganda. People were brainwashed not to use the tunnels and bridges that they where constructed with ordinary blocks which is a total lie. At least 50 - 65% of roads shown in the video were constructed by sen. Okorocha.

nonsense talk

Chibuzo15:
Lol, I was waiting for someone to say this,
Harvard is a private university imagine the human development it has brought about in USA,
and here in Nigeria, schools like Covenant Uni and Afe Babalola university have brought about huge human and economic development. Maybe not up to federal universities but more than a lot of Nigerian state universities

the person meant having a public university where the students stays among the villages renting flats and hostels a la polynek,futo style contribution of funds cycling the areas surrounding
university through printing and the likes not your description here..he is looking at it strictly through the Nigerian pattern of how areas surrounding public universities benefit from students patronage

seankafor:
lol.. this got me laughing..

We never settle dey ones wey don graduate..dem.dey churn out mushroom universities in numbers

Well their money, their business...

I will not mind a quality private technical school to be honest but like you said no thier money

All these mushroom universities self

Nnpc building a hospital is extremely laughable

sanctity454:
Polynek -ihiagwa futo road contractor is adamant to govt directive to speed up work

please what do you mean by 'adamant' here?

Yampotatocarrot:
Mehn, I'm shocked with that I'm seeing. Did you see where he wrote the North send their Almajiris down to the east, infact all of them, that we'll take care of them?

Even Northern states are trying to send them back cos of their propensity for violence and someone is saying we accept them all in. Na so European countries take do big brother accept refugees who even Muslim countries didn't accept, and the refugees are now causing trouble for them.

Abeg, let's not be too wise in our own conceits

there is a reason I stopped the discussion

Coldie:
Yes I am in support, if only we igbos could know how to play Nigerian politics well. Its in our interest to ally with the north we have a lot of things in common than the other south.

we have already done that on 2 occasions and it didnt really end well..funny also that other 2 south regions also feel it is in their interest to ally with the north..well all is just funny

Coldie:
There are things that only Igbo president can solve. Right now with the fact that the present rail line from warri to itakpe in kogi state.

Since it goes from warri seaport, as Igbo president our work is to have a rail line moving from that agbor section to Onitsha.

Imagine having a rail that moves from warri seaport directly to onitsha. It will change a lot.

no gurauntee an igbo president would do all these you have written unless that igbo person has shown that he really cares or cared about economic issues affecting igbos before now..secondly different individuals should work on developing their regions because it is obvious the country is now broke

Coldie:
We can. If they can build rigs in ijaw land, then use pipeline to pipe oil to the north is it ordinary river dredging that's a problem?

you are comparing rigs with dredging of tributaries?something you have to be doing constantly for to maintain dept?

Coldie:
Do u know that if there was to ever be regionalism or any form of restructuring u can kiss our dream to have a route to the sea goodbye.

I have settle down to solve the problem of Anambra port.

Its full blown engineering, that will cost billions of dollars, we will do it by MUST, if the north can use Billion's to look for oil In the north we will use billions to fund that engineering project.

Another port has to be built, the Niger bridges are a hindrance to the functionality of the ports.


The river Niger into many rivers that forms the Delta. We would require full blown damming of a lot of them to make a major river that will head to the sea.

Its like a canal system.

No Biafran president can ever do this cause that will be another country's territory, but under Nigeria, a President can

you cant build that onitsha port without the cooperation of ijaws whose tributaries the passage of dredging will pass their lands

Coldie:
I just discovered that if there was to restructuring it won't benefit us in anyway. It will only benefit the west and the south south. With the way these two regions have been acting it seems to be all man to himself, so I think we should be laying down our own plans.

If we push for an extra state, it cabr be created from the east cause our quota is complete.

We had 2regions then 3 then 4 and it went on.

Right now in the south in state creation the former eastern region has more States than the former western region.

East has 9 while the west has 8, do the math on what will happen in the next state creation.

Unless they create anioma state and zone it to the SE, we have nothing to gain from restructuring.

so in essence you are in support of the present top to down command system we are running?

Yampotatocarrot:
We definitely have smart people on this thread, Kudos bro.

We have so demonized agriculture... That's a fact

We have a lot of value orientation going on among youths in South West... Another fact.

Look at what young people in southwest are doing in Agriculture, you'll marvel. Nobody should tell me it's because of the market, because I know people eat in EVERY PART OF THE COUNTRY.

Yet, go to relief market Owerri, and you'll find out our people rely on food crops all the way from the north, EVEN VEGETABLES. In all my study and even farm groups I am a member of, I haven't seen any tomato farm situated in the east among other things. Even most vegetable farming in the east occurs during the rainy season, once the rains subside, we go back to depending on truckload of vegetables from the North

Thank God our people are going into poultry business now, but we really need more.

that they are going into poultry is a sign in the positive direction

Coldie:
Igbo presidency can solve all this problems we are facing here.

will solve nada

Coldie:
That's not the reason, like as a result of unemployment and rural urban migration.

what I mean is the nature of the settlement...the nature of settlement of se is different from sw for example...a random look through google earth will explain what I mean

Coldie:
What annoys me is d population density in that place with so much density is very sparse, u would go their see so much houses with people not living in them

well that is because of the peculiar 'scattered settlement' pattern of se

Amah70:
And you join the handlers of IMSG, as you daily churn out here photos and speeches that drop the impression that Imo state is Owerri.


Ndaa Ejiogu and others handled Okorocha government- told the governor to build us Special Capital City in Owerri. Thenceforth, they presented development of Imo state as affairs of Owerri only.

You know what, those handlers of Okorocha government contested against his son-in-law for APC guber ticket, after Okorocha’s method of developing only Owerri attracted enemies to him from all over the state.

enyi stop these your noise making..you were the one shouting up and down that it is good ihedioha has been removed from hope that ihedioha was only focusing on owerri..now hope is there so go to the right quarters and complain and stop these nonsense behaviour here

Mcc/uratta enter stone base stage

do you know whether they have reached abc uratta?

Yampotatocarrot:
Meaning that Okigwe could set itself up to be the agricultural hub of Imo state and even Abia state

for abia agricultural hub has areas in ngwa land that can feel that gap..for imo it is within ngor okpala and oguta axis..okigwe soil can be rather rocky ..I know because I schooled there

Yampotatocarrot:
This was exactly the discussion I had with someone last time I went home. Any small space, one guy is using it to build a mansion. 20 years is too much for your prediction o, in about 10 years time, areas in Mbaise down towards Umuahia will definitely have scarcity of lands. I hope this "madness" doesn't spread to Okigwe, because it seems they are the only ones that still have reasonable amount of lands.

okigwe and environs arent really densely populated so it will take a long while to get to okigwe

proeast:
You're right. I was shocked when I got to village in Mbaise and discovered that lands in interior communities now goes for as high as one million naira!! I mean lands in a rural community!!

I think very high population density is causing it and areas around Mbaise and Owerri is highly populated.

mbaise has always being densely populated though

Ph road construction reaches Ojukwu tunnel, the tunnel will be evaluated and strengthen if necessary, for now it remains closed to traffic

that ojukwu tunnel is just a death trap
