Energito:
why or is it because he said the truth.people criticise t.orji because of Aba,go to umuahia and see how it look very clean.Abia state is second on Education,leading in health care.tell us what obi did after 8yrs.he could not even save Awka not to talk of onitsha.

OdenigboAroli:
This claim of Abia doing better than Anambra in healthcare should be backed up with a proof not some beer parlour mouth off. I see anybody that speaks ill of Obi as an iidiot and an enemy of Anambra. What Peter Obi did for us will linger forever. Obi rehabilitated many hospitals,built new ones and news medical/nursing schools. Nnigga,respect your age so little children will not insult you. Obi laid a very solid foundation for the development revolution that is going on in Anambra today. Obi dug out Willie Obiano from nowhere,supported him even while people called him names and ridiculed him because of his choice of Obiano. I remember when everybody was calling Obi a fool and Obiano a puppet. These people are the same people praising Obiano,while castigating Obi. Ogini ka emelu uwa di mma.....But,may God punish any mouth that speaks ill of Obi and may you life never see justice ! May people lie against you and send you to early grave because of your lies against the man that showed us the way!

oneeast:
There is nothing to show in terms of real development even after Okorosha borrowed and wasted over 200billion. Imo thread is replete with the same old pictures from page one because there is nothing to show. There is no growth in the state. That was why nobody bothers to discuss anything here.

Abagworo:
Owerri, Orlu, Nkwerre, Anara etc is like one big city without connecting roads. Believe me if Okorocha completes Owerri to Akokwa this 1st tenure and then Completes Owerri to Anara and the Anara to Orlu via Amaigbo, a new city close to the size of Lagos must have been born.

On a side note Owerri seems to be the only City in the Southeast without sand deposits on its road. 2nd may be Umuahia which is also neat but smaller.

millionaireman:
Truth is that Nigeria through military governors and PDP-imposed governors had led the southeast for decades - except Gov Okorocha. SW has since been voting to liberate their states from imposed governors. Anyhow, do you not notice a worse Third World scenario once you enter Aba from Akwa Ibom or Rivers state, or once you enter Onitsha from Asaba? Southeast states need governors that begin with counting 1 before 2 - if SE governors establish the best hospitals without first providing their subjects with treated pipeborne water, is it not like counting 1 before 2? Good sanitation begins with having clean water.

millionaireman:
Self criticism is important. These ugly scenes shown by Chino are from SE states - not just from Imo state.

Nigeria has since created the type of Biafra it wants for the SE, but we do not seem to see it; whenever one is entering any of the SE states from outside the SE, one immediately gets the feeling of entering a worse Third World country.

SE leaders need to deploy available resources into providing infrastructure for the masses - such as pipe borne water, roads, educational, primary and tertiary health, etc, instead of going for vainglory projects, mostly in their state capitals.

MyTime3:
I didn't want to comment on this thread all along but the level of denigration some folks are ascribing to Imo State is really annoying, irritating and thought provoking.

Imo State and Owerri in particular has witnessed tremendous changes in terms of roads and infrastructure in the last few years.
I visit Owerri regularly (at least once every week) and I have seen change right before my eyes. So many new roads have been constructed in New Owerri e.g. 1st Inland road, 2nd inland road, 3rd Inland road, C.B anyanwu extension, Sun city hotel road, etc. just to mention a few.
The bypass from new Owerri to Douglas road and other newly constructed bypasses are master strokes that helped decongest the Assumpta cathedral-warehouse junction traffic.


n.b: I'm not a fan of Rochas administrative style but I dare to say he is doing very well from an unbiased perspective. #youcantfightfacts


Plz guys I know 2015 elections are around the corner but lets give due credit to anyone that is performing... every country in the world has good and bad places. You don't need to post only the worst sites (maybe already corrected) just to overshadow or counter the good sites.


For verification purposes, I will appreciate if the pictures can be accompanied with date and location of capture to avoid misrepresentation of facts and maybe objectively draw the government attention to them.

Thanks.

Long live Imo State!
Long Live South east!
Long Live the Federal Republic of Nigeria!

RareDiamonds:
Try and be appreciative for once mr man.

Onyegecha:
If you notice, my dear, i do not throw insults on people and i will not let you draw me down that lane of infamy. I will not keep quiet and allow anybody truncate the truth in the land of my birth. That is why i bother to respond to posts like yours. My question remains, who owns the university at Ogboko? Does it have a name?
The so-called university at Mbaise, what is the stage of completion right now? The Imo college of Advanced studies,(built by Rochas) what has become of it now? What has happened to the school of health technology Amaigbo under Rochas?
I may not blame you(that is if you are merely one of his victims) because we are up against a great scammer who can deceive even the very smart.
If Rochas has surpassed Mbakwe like you claim, why do Imo sons and daughters troop out of the state in search of livelihood? Mbakwe built many viable factories. By now, Imo would have been the toast of the nation. The truth is bitter. Rochas has taken us back by sooo many years. Stop selling these lies because they may haunt you for many years to come.

You said you pass through Imo state regularly. Do you honestly think that is enough to make you an authority in Imo politics? Think again, my brother.



For your information, i don't even understand the mechanism of banning and unbanning people on this forum so quit barking up the wrong tree.

millionaireman:
Friend, you may wish to go back to this thread, observe that my comments have been for even development of all parts of Imo state, and not concentrating development only on the present Imo-one-City State of old Owerri and New Owerri cities, no to an ugly phenomenon where all five tertiary institutions in Imo state are located to the convenience of just one area of the state, and thus reserve the advantage of cheaper and mass tertiary education only for Owerri.

On this matter of roads, I harp on channeling of Orlu flood waters to a valley so that money spent by us Imolites on building roads in Orlu area shall not be a waste in a few years from now. Building the channel gutter is job of state government - never that of federal government, as abagw. here misinforms readers. Some of the roads Sam Mbakwe govt built in parts of Owerri still remain good, because the state govt provided drainage system in the city.

I said it earlier, Okorocha govt has done a lot regarding road development all over Imo state. If one continuously harps on ensuring that the roads last long wherever in the state they are built, that must be welcome.

Onyegecha:
Are you showing us what you and your oga have in mind or what is on ground? We all know that that building will most likely remain on paper forever.

millionaireman:
Which university? Whose University? - The madam did not ask lie lie question - she asked de right question.

Who does not know the politics of location of tertiary institutions in Imo state? No court can grant the Ogboko university facility to a private organisation.

Truth is that if ORO leaves office without opening the university, next govt is most likely to convert it to a poultry or even a zoo. But Ogboko and neighbouring towns may not like ordour from poultry/zoo.

Onyegecha:
Whose university? Which university?

RareDiamonds:
I know you would look for something to complain about. I read somewhere that the construction activities in the University has reached an advanced stage.

LordNaya:
Imo State has numerous quality rural roads built by past and present Imo State governments, Fed Govt of Nig, private individuals and NDDC. Rural roads in Imo State are fairly good to an extent

millionaireman:
There is freedom of political association in Nigeria - but a good politician needs to make that choice with both hindsight and foresight.
It is falsehood to state that Okorocha govt has made no meaningful development in Imo state - even a blind fellow can "see" the developments.

Abagworo:
You ask too much questions. The Orlu/Owerri highway is longer than The Owerri/Elele highway. 305 schools with more than 200 completed. How many did PDP of 1999 to 2011 build? More than 500km of roads completed and another 300km waiting. How many did PDP construct? The truth remains intact as shown by my pictures earlier on this thread which I doubt if its of any use to repeat them. Imo State is the only State the Governor walks freely along the streets and drives around clearly seen. Government has been demystified and Keke operators, children, market women have access to the Governor.

In Imo State people can be aggrieved and enter or block Government house gate and the Governor or his aid will come out to address them without Police men or any arms. Can #bring back our girls! Protesters be allowed to block Aso Rock not to talk of Jonathan coming out personally to addess them. In Imo there is real freedom. Can D'banj snatch mic from Jonathan and his details will leave him untouched?

Kayceo2010:
We need pictures please... Don't come here and talk Ochendo pls.. That man is nothing to write uno about.. Disgrace to South East in total

IGBOSON1:
^^^I'm gonna have to hold my nose and say this; but T A Orjis' Umuahia is the best amongst all the South East state capitals (and major towns) when it comes to regular sweeping of roads and maintaining a good environment!

It's just a pity he didn't give Aba (the goose that lays golden eggs) the same attention!

asha80:
this looks like an abandoned sie though.
