Hope is currently burning my village down with his Ebube agu, malatial group.

He will die a painful death

Northern / Muslim women back then didn't wear hijab as much as they do now.

9jatriot:
Uzor Kalu - Ibo Man
Femi Adeshina - Yoruba Man

Meanwhile if you use nairaland to judge you would think that either tribe will be on the other's throat when they see each other.

Looks like tribalism is only played by those with poor mentality or when politicians need to get the upper hand otherwise everything else is interest.

New NNPC Pump Price per state, regions - 31st May 2023

It's cheaper in Lagos because the petrol is delivered to Lagos and distributed from there.

Continue with your fooling ignoramuses and the uninitiated - right from the beginning of Tinubu's presidential campaign. Not your fault. Most of Nigeria have been denied purchasing power such that they cannot even access news and information.

You're an absolute idiot. People from every region are adding Owerri to the list but you, being a tribalistic bastard, have to add tribalism and foolishness to the post.

I live in Owerri and I spend at least 1 week every month in port harcourt. Owerri is better, just that things, especially foodstuff, are more expensive in Owerri than in port harcourt

Afamed:
So the new buildings in hospital that were constructed just 3 yrs ago too should be demolished just because FG has taken it over?

Do you know the General Hosp Onitsha atall?

Most of una just like to comment out of pure ignorance

Na only una want everything yet na only una hate the President pass.

How many states in Nigeria, have both FMC and fEDERAL Teaching hosp in a particular state?

Make una rest bikonu.

But on a serious note, Saint Obi should have picked his life up after the divorce and move on speedily. He allows the shock of his failed marriage to overwhelm him.
However, it is not easy to let go of a union that have lasted more than two decades. He should have bring in elders from both families to settle their disputes. I am really pained by his death because he is my best actor and any time I saw him in a movie I feel some sense of relief and joy. He looks exactly like my late dad. Tall, fair, pointed nose and handsome.
May the soul of Saint Obi and other departed souls through the mercy of the living God rest in peace amen. Good bye my role model and may God be with your soul amen

andy244:
Owerri is below Ikeja Portharcourt and few state capitals but from what you wrote im very sure you have not visited owerri before or have anyone to tell you about one of the best ( planned) cities in Nigeria. Owerri has almost all the things you mentioned above and in some cases the best. Try to visit or ask questions.

Broveens42:
That's one thing with you Africans, after I highlighted factual/verifiable points why owerri is miles ahead in development, you now Wana join issues with entire imo..lol but bad news for you... You still can't beat the level of developments in these areas in imo state:

Mgbirichi, umuagwo, izombe, oguta, obowo, 7 and half, Amaigbo (home town of king Jaja), Nkwere, isinweke, umuoguma, owaala, Arondizogu, egbu, okigwe town, okwele,
there's this LGA that's close to Amaraku, like an alternative route to Amuzari, that place is built with sophistication.


Boy!!!, you need to travel!

Hoelujohn:
You are correct. I think they should disband the election tribunal in Abia. Or what do you think? A PDP controlled state should also bribe a judge to declare Tinubu unfit. That settles all. No need of election tribunal

abeg in which constitution are you quoting your second paragraph abi olodo ni gbogbo awon yiibo yii ni


Supreme court gave you mumus IMO state gov, you imbeciles said court doesn't have the right to decide who becomes IMO state Governor, now a President was duly elected, your candidate came third yet you're saying Inec that Nigeria constitution have bestowed the power on to Announce a winner after counting electorates votes doesn't have the power but court who are subjected under judiciary have the right to decide who become President



Judiciary are just there to interpret law and settle legal dispute between executive and legislature and other individuals through legal and constituted interpretation, go and read the functions of judiciary and stop disgracing your lineage here

Broveens42:
You clearly don't understand the meaning of development. Progressive development isn't having pipeline without refineries. Refineries can be likened to industry and world class hotels/entertainment hub can also be likened to industry.

A lot of people don't really know what development is all about. I'll give you reasons why only owerri and abj should be mentioned slightly above Nigeria level.


1. Being developed doesn't mean static condition; development is a continuum where you seek to improve the city according to the master plan ( owerri and abj still maintains that)
2. Organized street buildings and (not selected areas like GRA) ; you can't compare any city in Nija to owerri in that regard.
3. Organized commercial buildings without ugly fences.
4. Wide roads with so many bypasses ( not overrated flyovers that lead to no where)
5. World class landscaping for both residential and commercial areas.
6. Functional traffic lights
7. Solar lights
8. Underground drainage (balloon technology)
9.Tarred roads on major streets of old and new Owerri
10. Functional fire service
11. Public schools with world class learning environment...go now and visit schools like government secondary school, Holy ghost college, owerri girls college etc you will understand
12. Proactive public health
13. Organized transport for both civil servants (government bus) and other motorists (Bus imo)
14. Many shopping malls
15. World class hotels (I'm not joking)
16. Sam mbakwe airport ( a local airport that's 4th busiest in Nigeria is not a joke)
17. Home to family of expatriates ( a lot of these so called foreigners working in down south have almost formed a colony in Owerri but I won't give out the location here). They feel secured. Whether you like it or not, owerri is a peaceful capital and will always be.
18. The only state capital/zone in Nigeria where no imo governor has emerged from since 1999, but well built.

War destroys cities:
Every Nigeria City or aspiring city should learn something from the Collapse of Warri as Oil City👇👇👇

Warri was a big industrial hub in the 70's - 90's.

Warri Refinery, NNPC, DSC, Delta Glass, Shell, Chevron, Schlumberger, Dunlop, Agip, Saipem, Halliburton were in full operation back then. Escravos & Forcados were at their peak.

The city thrived. The city was full of zeal and zestful activities. People living outside hardcore Warri called themselves Wafarians because of propinquity to Warri even though they were not Wafarians. To be a Wafarian was to belong to supposedly a unique lifestyle.

Multinational/Local Banks were present Citibank, FBN, ACB, Savannah Bank.

Business activities thrived. Warri port was a beehive of economic activities

Entertainment/Night life was at its peak, Musicians, Live bands at Palmgroove Hotel, Comedians held their sway: Fela, legendary Don Baker, Majek Fashek, Emma Grey, Oritz Wiliki, Rex Lawson were a few of many of the entertainers that made Warri ebullient. Lido, Zina, etc were comparable to their ilks anywhere.

The town was full of life and it thrived.

McDermot road was busy with Maritime activities and contractors. Kingsway Mall offered anything sold in Lagos at that time.

Joma & Mosheshe were big fish distributors across the Niger Delta.

Rubber produced locally, was used to produce plastics and tyres.

The town grew in size and became a conurbation with people coming from all over the country to settle down in Warri for economic activities.

The Airports were super busy, Escravos, Forcados & Warri Airport. The Warri Airport was even relocated to Osubi for expansion.

Warri was revelling in its glory. Warri Port was fully operational and served as an economic booster for the city. It served businesses in Warri, Benin, Asaba & Onitsha. The Port created huge employment opportunities for locals and the state.

Things started to go downhill from the late 90's. The community leaders and youth chairmen began to fight themselves over control/sharing formula for royalties that came from oil & businesses from settlers.

Itsekiri, Urhobo & Ijaw leaders & youths started fighting each other. The bloody fight started around 1999 and lasted for years till 2003/2004.

The community leaders started imposing local taxes called "Deve" on all companies, industries and local businesses, buildings & projects.

Little by little, the companies frustrated, started leaving.

This continued throughout the early 2000's till 2010. The companies kept on leaving, one after the other. The companies layed off their employees. Unemployment rose.

More companies left for PH, Lagos, Akwa Ibom. They layed off more staff. Unemployment increased still.

Today all that is left in Warri, is a shadow of its glorious past.

95% of all the big companies in Warri had either left or closed down.

Most of the young people have left Warri.

The ones left are driving Keke, doing P.O.S, Spa or Boutique, Beer parlour or doing hookup.

There's peace now, but the damage the greedy community leaders did to Warri, still lingers on and is almost irredeemable at this point.

Do not assume that your city can not be destroyed if it toes the same route Warri followed. Warri leaders did not ever believe that Warri will be this economically empty today while they were fighting then. Learn from Warri and protect our economies

Have you asked why big eeconomies like US, China,etc will never allow war in their countries?

We must learn and avoid things that will trigger war in our country no matter how strong we believe we are. Businesses and investors go where there is peace than where there is war.
