Reno is head and shoulder above Obi in everything "intellectual". He's far more vast and a bigger reader than Obi

Reno should know that Obi wouldnt have known these things as Obi is so myopic that he doesnt even make thorough findings before posting

So, Obi didnt say anything about Tobi Amusan but did say few things about Favour Ofili.

Man is a tribalist. I'm sure he didnt praise that Yemisi Ogunleye that won gold for Germany too

Having a tribal leader is self-destruction. Obi is only fit for jung**

Tribalism from Buhari and Tinubu has ruined Nigeria beyond redemption.
Apart from the two men, Nigeria is rooted on tribalism. Every politician protects his ethnic group first before others, Explains why Tinubu has mostly his Yoruba in his presidency, and Buhari had mostly his Fulani in his government.

Meaningless.

Reno merely wants followers on his social media pages in order to receive money from hosts.

SmartPolician:
Stop replying those shameless and seneless people; it's not worth it.

You are unemployed, and doing unpaid job 24/7 on Nl, you comment on nearly every thread on Nl from dawn to dusk.
Thread is on pics from Imo state, not pics from State capital alone. Develop more sense.

Obi1kenobi:
Again, this is just a nonsense talking point. I don't know what you mean by "Owerri zone fought". Fought how? It's not that easy (and a waste of resources) to relocate an entire university. Nothing stopped all these Orlu zone governors from building universities in Orlu, since many Orlu village [/b]men with no imagination think that only universities bring urban development - even though Onitsha does not have one single university or tertiary institution of any kind (technical colleges, nursing colleges, teaching institutes etc) and is still by far the most populated and urbanized area of Anambra.

You people's Owerri envy no go kill you sha. I've said it many times in this thread that I have heard many groups of people crying marginalization in Nigeria (usually because they are forgotten, abandoned minorities in their state) but Orlu people are the first and only existing people in Nigeria that I've heard crying marginalization despite ruling the state for over 20 out of the last 25 years in Imo state (the Owerri zone ruling for less than [b]ONE year), and having big majorities in the Imo House of Assembly. Una no get shame at all, sha and you don't know how silly you sound to the rest of us.

You wrote "Orlu Village people." For Orlu to remain village forever is the true wish of people of Owerri zone. No blame you sha. Blame govs from Orlu zone who are building state capital for Owerri; Owerri whose people know they are more related to Ikwerre in Rivers state, than to any other group in Imo state.
FYI, former gov Evan Enwerem from Owerri was number one gov responsible for underdevelopment of Orlu. Enwerem refused to continue with contract of Orlu urban roads and drainage, he refused to implement the regional water supply project of Orlu. He inherited the two projects from preceding military gov. Population influx to Owerri due to all govt institutions kept in Owerri tie the hands of govs from Orlu zone to building more roads and urban infrastructures of Owerri. Now gov Hope Uzodinma is taking on some major roads in Orlu.

Obi1kenobi:
Why do you Orlu people love parroting the emboldened dumb talking point? The Onitsha metro area in Anambra which has continued to expand has next to no government institutions. Cities don't develop just because you site a few universities in them.

Dumb talk?
Owerri zone fought Udenwa over relocation of IMSU from Owerri.
Owerri zone fought Ohakim over talk that IMSU would be relocated outside Owerri.
Owerri zone fought Okorocha standstill over talk that IMSU would be taken from Owerri to Ideato.
Don't pretend you don't know that it's all the government institutions in Owerri with students and staff population nearing 300,000, that make Owerri develop ahead of rest of Imo state.
Cities develop because of just one public university in them. But Owerri zone clutches tight to more than 4 public universities, and does waka to rest of Imo state.

Reformation is the essence of imprisonment. That is why prisoners are often released even before the term expired.

What is president Tinubu benefitting from holding Mazi Nnamdi Kalu prisoner?
Why not release Kalu to attenuate the rising insecurity in a part of Tinubu's Nigeria?

Why not? She is copying the governors and the president.
What a child learned from childhood never leaves when the child becomes an adult. That is why some people believe that to get Nigeria in the right direction, a whole population of Nigeria needs to be removed and replaced with newly born kids.

However solid a road was built, human/vehicular traffic wears off the road with time. There is population influx to Owerri from rest of Imo state, because of continued heaping of all govt institutions in Imo state in Owerri district.
Human/vehicular traffic quickly tears off the roads of Owerri district. Those who located all government institutions in Imo state in Owerri, and the succeeding governors who swallowed the falsehood that every govt development project must be located in the state capital, are to be blamed for unending reconstruction of roads in Owerri district. Give it 4 more years, the roads being done in Owerri district will require resurfacing again.

What's in a flag?
Italian govt or armed forces didn't worry about the millions of flags waved by separatist Padania region of northern Italy for about 7 years beginning the early 1990s, until Italian govt restructured Italy politically.
When Nigeria armed forces kill Biafra separatists for carrying Biafra flag, it's a mark of primitive people in an armed forces of a Nigeria. No country run by saner persons attack and kill separatists.
Now will Nigeria's armed forces waste the lives of these young men in the north, as they waste the lives of young people carrying Biafra flag in the southeast? They practice a different constitution in the north. In other words, they have a different Sharia country.

So says Bayo Onanuga who said Igbos should steer clear of participating in elections in Lagos state. Who takes a barely educated Bayo serious?
You don't want to form your Oduduwa Republic yet, you tell non Yoruba citizens of not to participate in elections in a part of the country. You no get head.

Funkyswagzz:
That's not true it must pass tinubu's desk first and if he doesn't sign it's now left for the national assembly to use its power to override the president if necessary

But not Etiti. NEVER!! Etiti is a fraudulent proposal.

How can we go to Ebonyi and Enugu states for the 3rd time to create new state in the southeast while Imo West and Anambra south are ignored?

But who will support dividing Enugu and Ebonyi states for the 3rd and 2nd times respectively to get Etiti state, while the Orlu state proposal is not yet created?

Because Peter Obi did not call for mass revolution after he was cheated out of the presidential election by INEC.

Chasito:
Tilumbu has finished this country kpata - kpata, I've never seen a clueless person like that before.

coputa:
Nigerian leader don't want to empower the masses so that
they won't have the mental, physical and spiritual strength to revolt

Religion and ethnicity are the curse of Nigeria.
If a person from one ethnic group is president of Nigeria while other people revolt, the ethnic group of the president or people who share same religious faith with the president move against those on revolution.

Abagworo:
Old man Chino born in 1970s still behaving like a baby. Truth cannot be wished away by mere imagination so grow up and find something better doing with your time. Southeast best developed cities are

1 Enugu
2 Owerri
3 Aba
4 Onitsha
5 Abakaliki

None of these cities is befitting and what every sane Igboman or Nigerian wants is for them to be like their counterparts in Europe and Asia not this mediocre we are seeing today. I pray Otti succeeds in upgrading Aba to serve as example for everyone that it's possible but for now I'm watching.

No place without public water supply system should be seen as a modern city.
I think Enugu and Onitsha have public water supply system.
Abakaliki has because Dave Umahi built one.

All the too many ghettos of concrete houses now springing up in the rural communities around Owerri - ghettos without a single social amenity in Naze, Egbu, Ofurola, Ejemeekwuru, Ezi Obodo, Avu, Obinze, Uratta, Irete, etc. As you join them to Old and New Owerri which has govt social infrastructures, you take aerial shots of Owerri and come online with Owerri mega city. Fake. It will take another 100 years before IMSG completes provision of social amenities to these concrete ghettos surrounding Old and New Owerri. For IMSG to provide social amenities in those concrete ghettos, there shall be nothing left to provide social amenities in other towns of Imo state outside Owerri zone. That's why it's only a stupeed gov who provides social amenities in only state capital hoping to build a befitting state capital before attention is given to other urban towns and rural areas in the state. As he provides for only state capital, he draws more and more population to the state capital. It continues unending.
Imo state has been buried in its state capital.

InternalAuditor:
We are all igbos. Let’s tell ourselves the bitter truth. Imo state is yet to have a befitting state capital. What imo has now as a capital is a total shame. Weatheral road is the only road in Owerri and that’s only road people show as Owerri, while 90% of the town is in a shambolic mess and unplannlessness. Looking at Owerri reminds of a Stone age. You now see the reason why most imo indigenes are running to Onitsha, Awka and Enugu to live and invest .

There is nothing like befitting capital. It is a fraud and cheat phrase that exists in the minds of only Owerri people. Don't be deceived here. There is no place in the constitution of Nigeria where it's written that a state capital must have more govt infrastructures than the other places in the same state.

Paris, Rome, Kaduna, are still under construction.
It's the criminal action in Imo state that makes other parts of Imo state wait until befitting capital is built in Owerri, before social amenities start to be located or built in other parts of Imo state.
Example: Owerri has all the federal government housing estates in Imo state. Next time, Owerri will still lobby for new federal government housing estates for Imo state be built in Owerri. This is criminal act that has gone on for years unnoticed, unchallenged because govs from Orlu zone are infested with the disease of Owerri to build befitting state capital.

In Nigeria, minimum wage is about $20.
Who did this to people in Nigeria?

The NW and the SW regions who have ruled Nigeria at apex political leadership level since 1970.

InternalAuditor:
lol

This is the only sincere imo man here. Others like the useless poor old man called Abagworo will always want to live in denial

If anyone tells them that state gov is supposed to provide social infrastructures commensurately for all the urban and rural towns in Imo state, they reply that gov must provide infrastructures to only Owerri because Owerri is capital city. Bush men mentality!

Origin of this Imo one city - Owerri - is because Owerri people do not share cultural and dialect relationship with people in Orlu and Okigwe zones. Owerri shares culrure and dialect relationship with Ikwerre in Rivers state. So for Owerri people, it's grab, grab and run with every govt devt institution for Imo state for location in Owerri zone.

InternalAuditor:
It is the same criticism that we are doing even here too.

We want to know why Owerri is still a glorified village?

We want to know why Owerri flyover is not functioning?

We want to know why Owerri ICC collapsed despite huge commission fanfare?

We want to know why most imo indigenes prefer to live in Onitsha, Enugu, Awka than living in Owerri.

These are pertinent questions

Bolded. They have again cajoled the Imo gov to build another flyover in Assumpta junction where a big rondo or traffic lights would better traffic. Waste of money that should have saved human lives in other places in Imo State where floods yearly carry away humans due to unavailable urban drainage network. Primitive, heartless set of people who foolishly believe that flyover is sign of mega city.

Broveens42:
Mr government waiter,

You are here shouting why people are buying lands and building in Orlu and okigwe as we speak.
If imolites had given in to your likes who derided Owerri for building only hotels, do you think we would be having a conversation of a city to be proud of in the east?
Now you are about Imo building only Owerri, forgetting that the sudden attention Owerri has generated, have made prices of lands and even on the outskirts of the city very exorbitant, pushing builders to other zones/LGA.

The best way to build a state is systematically, else you have pockets of disorganized cities in a state with little or no area for Agriculture, power plants, Refineries etc

Bolded. The evil suggestion by Owerrians to then gov Okorocha: "let IMSG first build us a Dubai-like capital city in Owerri, future governors will take care of Okigwe and Orlu." That is the suggestion you rephrased in the bolded above. Thunder will fire all of you with this mentality.
If Roman emperors had waited until they built Rome to the highest, but abandoned London, Paris, Damascus etc, people of England, France, Syria, etc of the Roman empire would have revolted against Rome.

Owerri lands are more fertile and used to be the agricultural basin of Imo state. You now sell the lands of Owerri for people of Orlu and Okigwe zones to come to settle in Owerri.
So far, Owerri has been enjoying Orlu zone governors who have no idea of how to build a state.

Pascal9:
is it a taboo for you to contest, if building cities allover imo state with our tiny land mass is ur priority then contest and win soo that you can implement your idea, stop being a nuisance in naira land

Everywhere in Anambra State is practically becoming modern cities
Every small town in Europe is like city because the small towns have all the social amenities in bigger cities.

You may wish to build Owerri two to three deck cities, but let flood carry away rest of Imo state.
Onye oshi, Barawo, Ole. The thief logic that you people have used to make Imo state become a state with only one modern city - Owerri is state capital naaa. Stupid logic.
Onye oshi. Don't reply me again. I don't want to reply to primitive dimwits.

InternalAuditor:
Imo state is yet to have a teaching hospital, that’s why medical students of IMSU goes to Anambra university teaching hospital for internship


1 . ANSUTH GATE

2. IMSUTH GATE

Even that IMSUTH in Orlu no longer exists. Since it was established, they have been biting it witch because it's not in state capital. Eventually they found good partner in this governor who is anti-Orlu, anti Isu clan, anti Ideato. The gov has disactivated IMSUTH. They are begging federal government to build a federal university teaching hospital in Owerri. But the IMSUTH the state government has spent billions of Naira to build is not for them because it's in Orlu, not in the state capital.
Never seen a bunch of primitive people worse than..
Don't know how they come about their belief that every govt thing in a state must be in state capital.

Flyover in Assumpta round about Owerri is a project borne out of malice.
Flyover is built in high speed road junctions for reversing directions. Roundabout or traffic lights are used for traffic control inside city centre
No trained town planner would build Flyover in city centre like this Assumpta round about.

Uzodinma is doing the useless flyover in Assumpta round about Owerri to say ntoor to Ideato/Orlu where floods due to uncontrolled urban drainage kill people, and the Orlu-Akokwa road remains non navigable.

FOXDOSSIER:
Imo state is a failed state and this is why most imo indigenes prefer to live in Onitsha and Awka.
There’s no street in imo state that has one good paved street that has walkways like this streets of Fegge in Onitsha. Uzodimma is useless and will use this term to loot and throw imo state deeper in debt . When shall imo state get it right with leadership ?

Abeg, leave those bunch of primitive people. They are eating them mugu while they go all over Owerri and snap photos of road with asphalt or hotel, post the pics here.
Talk about any other place outside Owerri in Imo state, they will display their primitive fangs. Those most primitive people see Imo state and its development process as Owerri only matter.

Pascal9:
go and contest for governor, soo that you can build 100p cities in imo, fool

Transforming towns to modern livable cities is one of the objectives of government all over the world.
Must you remain stupeed because you are in APC?

Franking:
My zone too. Izunasor does not have time for us. Imagine if Jones Onyereri was allowed to contest.

Our Orlu zone has Sen Izunaso who is man of gov Hope Uzodinma.
Uzodinma is like he swore that Orlu must go down and under before he dies. Orlu is watching him.

Ha ha ha. These are your first two posts on Nl after you registered in January.
Your message: individuals should build roads in their towns in Imo state. Do you not represent IMSG?

Bros, you try.

The travelers arrived Orlu town centre - Tijani Street by Awoidemilli Street and Oleme Road junction. They didn't know where they were until they asked a bystander. They also asked for where Nkwo Ito roundabout is, whereas they drove past that roundabout some three minutes before then.
After getting direction from the bystander, they headed straight to old Owerri road dualized halfway by Okorocha govt, reached Carwash by Teaching hospital junction on the road. From there, they turned towards one long street built during Udenwa govt which connects Building materials market in New Owerri road, the road reconstructed by Uzodinma's govt. Next, they were on the federal road in Nkwerre and Nwangele local government areas.

They wouldn't know the all dilapidated inner streets of Orlu. I mean the wrecked urban roads in the area from Building materials market to carwash to Urban secondary school to Imo poly campus/Bishop Shanahan and Catholic Cathedral, and roads from that area to Orlu town centre. People living in these clustered areas in Orlu are passing through hell of wrecked urban roads in Orlu.

Broveens42:
No governor in Nigeria beats Hope in road infrastructure.
Pic 1: eziachi, orlu
Pic 2:
Ongoing dualization of 20km Mgbidi_Omuma_Akatta_Okporo road

Your Ezischi in Orlu road leads from where to where?

Depends on location.
In Imo state, it's less than N300,000 in Owerri area.
In Orlu area, it costs more than N1.5million to strike ground water beneath the aquifer due to the topography of the area.

Oyibo provided treated pipe borne water in Orlu area, but none functions since the mid 1990s.
Unfortunately, people from this Orlu area have governed Imo state mostly since 1999. Each of them has been busy fighting the predecessor. The present governor from the zone has even destroyed or disactivated government infrastructures in the principal city of the zone because he perceives old political foes from there.
