Even farms were not spared

An overhead tank was pulled down here damaging several cars and no injury or loss of lives.

More photos of the disaster.

What happened in Owerri was a disaster that requires prayers and help from Nigerians and not to play politics with. It was more or less a hurricane and we thank God no single injury or loss of life was recorded as in other places that have experienced same recently.

They've been suspended from APC at council and State level by the new State chairman and executives. Since politics is local they are no longer APC members in their locality but are busy playing in Abuja. If they say they are APC members let them come to their local government secretariat or State secretariat.

Enuguboy4nsk:
lol.. very much funny... probably they hadn't seen that of Ebonyi.

without exaggeration, Abakaliki has the best flyovers in Eastern Nigeria.. I'm sure no igbo person will argue it out

Unarguable.

A peep into Okigwe from the new Stadium point of view

freshvine:
in my previous post, i'd mention "in the capacity of julius berger" meaning "any" contractor that can deliver berger's standard of job. i was specific so your local content postulation is non existent and arguement irrelevant.

secondly, okorocha 5" block "standard" projects is an eyesore and shouldnt be public discourse. eastern palm university he did for himself with state fund is the only project that can receive attestable ratings. others oozing of frauds are example of old century relics.

Why not start by telling us how things were before and show us example of the standard you are talking about that was built by past Governors. I will compliment your efforts by equally showing us the quality of ongoing and completed projects executed recently by Owelle.

Abagworo:
You hate Okorocha hence your reasoning can never be unbiased. Julius Berger is the biggest criminal in Nigeria used by politicians to siphon huge sums of money through contract inflation. I love Okorocha's ability to get the best at the lowest possible price and the gradual but steady improvement on the quality of construction.

Thank you my brother but it's beyond hate but rather dangerous desire for power. They are paid urchins whose job is create false stories for their greedy masters against the people's HERO.

Okorocha enters the next stage in urban renewal after completion of over 20km of 10 lane expressways through Owerri city. Other States will have a lot of catch up to do in the coming years as grassing and tree planting has taken over the highways. This is not Abuja or New Owerri but old Owerri which had illegal structures demolished and major roads expanded. Presently Douglas Road and Wetheral Road are receiving the magic touch.

Rochas na strongman make I no lie... But the crack in Imo APC is a welcome development

There is no crack bro but some PDP men that were part of Jonathanians calling Rochas Okoroawusa and even working against Buhari calling him terrorist. Till today they are paying people for online propaganda against Buhari as well as okada stands even as APC members. They will have no option but to return where they came from.

shankara7:
There are documented and verifiable evidence that ward Congress held in Imo state. And stop deceiving yourself Rochas is now like Ebola in Imo state.

Now that those with the documents have been arrested will you retract your statement?

“The police have since commenced investigation into the unlawful and criminal act and this is the result that we are having today.

During the course of interrogating them, they mentioned one Dr Njoku who is the Zonal coordinator of Owerri Municipality to Senator Hope Uzodinma, who is a serving senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“And I equally want to draw you a little bit back to let you know that Engineer Ipanesie Innocent is the SA in Electoral Matters to the same Senator Hope Uzodinma.”

He said the “Nigeria Police Force is fully determined and well prepared for the 2019 general election and our preparation is in three phases-the pre-election period, the elections proper and the post election period. And people should know that we won’t tolerate any act of lawlessness before the election, during the election and after elections. ”

” On this note the police wish to plead with the players to do what they are going to do in conformity with the Electoral Act. Nobody,no matter how highly placed, would be allowed to truncate the process.

“It is consequent upon this that the Inspector General of Police has directed the Commissioners of Police and their supervising Assistant Inspectors-General of Police across the country to ensure that the primaries that are going on in all the political parties are conducted devoid of any violence and equally ensure that any group or individuals that try to truncate the process are immediately apprehended and prosecuted in accordance with the laid down law, “he added.

Imo: Police parade suspects arrested for forgery, theft of APC wards, LG electoral materials
Moshood said the suspects were arrested in the early of yesterday in the hotel where they were lodging.

“During the course of interrogating them, they mentioned one Dr Mike Njoku who is the Zonal coordinator of Owerri Municipality to Senator Hope Uzodinma, who is a serving senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, “Mr Moshood said.

He said:”The suspects were arrested in the early hours of today in a hotel called Faraji Hotel in Wuse 2 area of Abuja.”

According to the Force Headquarters image maker, “They were arrested for being in possession of ward congress materials that belong to Imo State.”

He spoke further:” You are aware that the Ward congress supposed to have been held in Imo State on the 5th of this month but it was shifted because of the fact that this group and their sponsors stole the election materials and hijacked the process to an unknown destination

conehead2018:
Op you and your pay master are just hopeless..No matter how hard you and your Hausa governor try ndi IMO has rejected you lots and God has rejected you guys..next time lie with a million youths no be only ten thousand....aran oko..

Is anything wrong with Hausa? The same people that called APC Hausa party are now struggling to join the Hausa party.

Owerri is on the lock down at the moment. Youth for youth the youths demand. These are the people that will vote and also fight for democracy if need be.

Pontaboki:
Imo1ston abi 100 son,stop disgracing yourself.You people have finished Ohaji Egbema boys.Your own zombie is even worse because I am not sure you are paid up to 10k

How do you determine where thousands of people are from. Mind you Mbaitoli, Okigwe, Isu, Njaba, Isiala Mbano, Owerri M., Okigwe and Oguta youths are fully represented.

Pontaboki:
These hopeless people are Ohaji Egebma boys not Imo Youths.Where were these hopeless and useless boys when flooding nearly finished us yesterday evening after the rain due to the bad drainage.

May Amadioha visit them one by one

Where was the flood? You don't snap pool of water during rainfall and call it flood. Wait for one hour and then go back there. Isn't this same place you claim is flooded why is it dry already?

cocaineaddict:
those touts are not up to 50 na

If you know some of the people here you won't make such remark. 10,000 is the basic number but it might be more.

More pictures

As usual Imo leads. No surprises here

More pictures from the peaceful protest

Youths numbering over ten thousand this morning took to major streets of Owerri to protest against the missing sensitive materials that led to cancelation of ward congress held on 5th May 2019. The youths carrying solidarity placards in support of Governor Okorocha matched through the home of the alleged culprit Sen. Osita Izunaso.

Charlesdonald:
where is this abeg

I thought you live in Owerri.

1st one is Court Road

2nd is 3rd inland

3rd and 4th are Ochiedike roundabout by Zuma road.

They are all new roads built recently though.

According to reports from headquarters the controversial Imo APC ward congress where Governor Okorocha obstructed attempt to write fake results has been canceled. There is joy and celebration across Imo State with people screaming "nde oshi vote adaala" meaning "election thieves have failed". Glory be to God.

More details coming.

wingmanII:
I think this is just a coincidence. The CP was working with the governor. In any case how can they replace him so fast? Even got a replacement. It is not related to the congress.

No it is not. The last CP was compromised and refused to search Izunaso's house even though it was obvious the sensitive materials were inside there. The head of DSS has also been changed.

CilicMarin:
The same way, he was defeated in 2015.

You know nothing about how elections are won in the South East, When you have all the military, police, Civil Defence, INEC and Political appointee.

Okorocha will dust them all.

This was exactly how 2014 played out but he still defeated them without support as he was a loner in APC then. They threatened and boasted and tried to incite people but it failed.

CilicMarin:
[s][/s]

He will still win just like he did in 2015 in spite of your hate.

Elections in the South East are different from the rest of Nigeria.

Federal might always win.

Ask Alex Oti

Ask Martin's Elechi.

Okorocha is even more popular than all of them combined. What has been happening in Imo State is the politicians who lost to Okorocha ganging up and using every means possible to kill his political career. Okorocha is easily the best Governor in Southeast but they have been using the media to sell false report thinking it has turned people against Okorocha but it hasn't worked. Like Okorocha said, they will all be retired completely come next year no matter how hard they try.

On the attempt to write fake results, watch events unfold in coming days.

lmo1stson:
I am angry that Okorocha we voted for has failed us woefully. Ok look at our own flyover in Owerri. He commissioned it with so much fan fare but it has remained a deathtrap and un-used till date, even the approach road is in a total mess. Look at it. Who did we offend in Imo state? Abandoned substandard projects littered everywhere whereas the governor has incurred debt amounting to over N250 billion but there is nothing anywhere on ground to show for it.

Do all you can but no Imo son will have time to notice your dead Anambra thread where you showed a hotel, private homes, private businesses and Churches as the biggest achievement.

lmo1stson:
Imo is my state. I am reporting you for insulting me for being sincere.

I've told you to stop crying because of the backwardness of your dirty, illiterate and spare parts traders State of Anambra. Ndi Imo are not the cause but because you value money over integrity. Your cloning my moniker and using it to waste your energy on this thread proves Imo as a State gives you nightmares. Just go to your dry Anambra thread and point out where any Imo guy has deemed it good enough to contribute.

It's already exhausted at 37 pages despite the repetition of pictures and flooding with private houses, mission schools, churches and hotels.
