We igbos need to open our eyes and go into agriculture full force, during this covid19 era lockdown was the moment I discovered how low our agriculture output was, 80% of the agricultural produce shared as palatives came from the north. Even the leanest livestock.

We have much more fertile land, that doesn't need irrigation cause we have all round rainfall, instead of us looking for how to cultivate this land to provide jobs for our people and reduce capital flight and emigration na fine environment be our problem.

The plant we will plant would also help in the environment

when it comes to animal husbandry and extensive poultry farming I totally agree with you ...however you see very large scale farming that needs hectares and hectares of land? It might not be that easy to replicate in the se apart from areas around oguta/ohaji and ngor okpala because imo state is the 3rd most densely populated state in the country and also you have factor in complicate land ownership structure which doesn't exist in the north

seankafor:
orji uzo kalu I heard

well that explains it

Coldie:
We have different point of views so we cant think the same.

I prefer 80percent of our forests cultivated and turned into farmlands than leaving it to just remain forests all in the name of beauty when its not adding anything economically to the state.

How many tourists have u seen come to IMO state to look at the forests?

the forests are for your own healthy living not for any tourist whatever

seankafor:
what do you expect from a company owned by one of the most corrupt politicians in Nigeria?

wait who owns zerock?

seankafor:
damn..
That I'll be a great milestone believe me..but those guys no dey do pikin contract.. their contract jobs are always expensive but quality..

Cecc recently acquired large chunks of contracts in the states..

Maybe it's time for a little competition...

What I don't wanna see are those indigenous contractors like zerock and co... Those guys are very stupid and incompetent

apart from repair of failed sections of owerri umuahia federal road which other contracts did cecc corner in imo state?

Coldie:
What brought about the conversation, a uni been built in a forest area.

Are we looking for beauty or economic prosperity.

If u look at IMO state from google earth, u would know that IMO state is still very much back ward than most states, owerri is very small in size.

We are talking about how to develop and expand the city and u people are bordering about forest.

How many forests does Lagos have?

so you like the atmosphere and air in lagos?lagos environment is really what you want imo state to turn into? You really dont know much about environmental issues

Coldie:
Let the forest be important in other places, the economic rejuvenation of Igbo land should be our goal not forest

they can go side by side...do you know one of the major reasons for erosion in the se? Yes you heard indiscriminate felling of trees because the soil is largely coarse and cover that those trees provide that counters heavy tropical droplets of rainwater has been dwindling..there is a reason we are situated in a tropical rain FOREST belt..also those forest acts as checks to rising temperatures you witness around you..you decimate forest indiscriminately all in the name of economics be ready to also have the wherewithal to counter the inevitable consequences of doing it.

Coldie:
I dont get ur point. That location is nice. If I was to be IMO state governor I would demolish that entire forest and turn it into a huge farm.

I doubt you know the importance of forest to an ecosystem or even the complex land ownership system in se nigeria

seankafor:
you haven't heard about the Nigerian road electrification map.

Multi billion deal with German power horse Siemens group

I have heard about it but I am wondering how it will affect emeka offor ownership of eedc?is Siemens going to take over the running of enugu disco ?

seankafor:
Siemens will soon come to the rescue bro..just hang in there

If bubu should deliver us power before end of 2023..

I personally will canvas for his 3rd term honestly

how will Siemens come to the rescue if I may ask?

Yampotatocarrot:

Ministry of works has sworn to terminate polynek - ihiagwa road if the contractor fails to redouble its effort on or before next week

if I am not mistaken chec (the construction company in charge of that polynek ihiagwa road) is the same company handling the Douglas end of aba road up to naze junction

Yampotatocarrot:
Which zone does umuagwo fall under: Owerri, Okigwe or Orlu?

Looks suspect

Why are we going to through this wastage again?

Ramp bridge construction in okigwe lga

definitely looks like ramp project

maimalari:
When will you be tired of this music of lies? Ihedioha awarded this and that. Ihedioha was a curse to that state. Very foolish guy that went on a destruction spree. For your info, all roads in imo state (Abia inclusive) was awarded during the administration of Mr Mbakwe of blessed memory.

you definitely landed on your head at birth sha

sanctity454:
World bank-federal secretariat road

this looks solid in the making

sanctity454:
I don't know, probably under ramp

has to ramp because I haven't seen listed as any of the construction the state govt is directly doing..also the quality looks ramp like

sanctity454:
Fecolart-oforola-Avu road in progress

is this road under ramp or directly under imsg?

sanctity454:
Roudo const co. is his company na

interesting..thought he is supposed to be a pdp chieftain

sanctity454:
Chief Tony chukwu was also on site

what's tony chukwu's own?

OreMI22:
Hope Uzodinma reminds me of Chris ngige.

They stole another person's mandate, then they win the hearts and minds of the people through purposeful governance with the delivery of high-quality projects.

Then the people are opposed to removing him from office because he turned out to be a high performer, even if the mandate was stolen.

the difference is that unlike ngige there isn't going back to the court..just the next election

ANSMEDIA:
Contractors mobilised by ANSG to fix the Nkissi erosion site in Onitsha. Good job

from the first 2 pics planting of trees cannot be stressed enough

sirp9898:
But the picture of the street is real or do u mean that i am lying about this

does this look like an Anambra thread?

rowland545:
hahahaha I'm guessing u r one of the fake asss animal rights activist I was talking about right??

I doubt you know what damage disappearance of some animal species can cause to an environment

Whitepear:
LEMUR

they only exist in Madagascar

sanctity454:
Control -ibari ogwa-ph road

any idea of the company handling this road?

sanctity454:
Seplat has 700 million usd gas plant project but i don't know about nestoil

I don't think nestoil is carrying out any project in imo state

kikake:
Bros. Mbaise is in Owerri.

I know the levels of urban development in Owerri and Orlu when Imo state was created in 1976. Owerri was slightly more urban than Orlu then.

Then, Orlu had a stadium, Owerri had a stadium. Orlu had public water supply. Owerri had public water supply. Orlu had many urban streets, Owerri had many urban streets.

Alvan Ikoku College of Education is what Owerri has which Orlu hadn’t.

Imo state got created and Owerri Politicians caused the location of all six new universities and politechnics in Imo state all in Owerri, nothing for Orlu. That’s fraud.
Owerri develops and expands through all these institutions. As Owerri expands, every governor is constrained to invest the government funds on providing more infrastructures in Owerri.

The rest of Imo state outside Owerri, worst hit Orlu, remain backyard. Worse, Owerri people are happy for this ugly situation in Imo state.

If IMSG does not undertake development of Orlu’s infrastructures, the rancor shall increase.

It’s most stupid people who enjoy a state where only one place is developing.

mbaise isnt owerri the way you always say ogboko (ideato) isnt orlu so enough with the duplicity

Yampotatocarrot:
Look at the examples you have about other states, maybe it's high time people from ORLU and Okigwe realise that they have to prop up a new governor from Mbaise for them to develop, since their own people have been disappointing them. Don't you think?... Lol

lol
