How did Obi enter the argument?

DissTroy:
In 2010, GEJ began the reconstruction of the Rivers - Akwa Ibom highway (the Eleme - Ikot Abasi -Port Harcourt highway).
Akpabio did everything to aid it so the Akwa Ibom part of the road was completed in less than 2 years.

Ogoni youths in Rivers State frustrated the company, kidnapping workers and robbing anything which breathes while hounding the company.

The result? The Akwa Ibom part of the road is smooth and a joy to drive on but the Rivers part is more like a death trap as you approach Rivers State. And when you get to Trailer Park in Rivers? That's Hell HQ!

Just before the presidential elections weeks ago, Ogoni youths struck again, cordoning off the road to rob unabated and none has been brought to book. Try denying this.

Yeah, Rivers State is safe.

One Rivers guy I met back then said they be militants lol…. Rivers, Delta and Edo are be careful areas… You can lose your life wearing the wrong clothing combination.

People are forgetting everyday obtaining going on there… where they corner you and take your phone

Many youths don belong and if you’re a good boy…. You might not notice what’s happening in your city

Itsrm

Where are you in this Rivers discussion?

Itsrm:


My opinion has been well documented in previous pages. The state is largely peaceful. Anyone who argues otherwise does not live here or is an alarmist.

I no sabi Rivers sha

But my friends over there have not complained about insecurity. One left Lagos and got to PH around 11, and he still went home.

We dey learn from una sha

What is the cost to run a sponsored thread on NL?

Anybody get idea?

DissTroy:
And safety or peacefulness is a relative term in the Nigerian context.

Rivers is RELATIVELY safe and peaceful when compared to many Northern states (NE particularly). I agree.

It also has a prevalent gang culture. Even the permanent residents can't deny this. Pray tell, where has (street) gang culture never been proportional to violence? None. The rise of gangs and the prevalance nonetheless follows a trajectory of violence.

We've come to accept anything but the optimum as peace and safety.
It's the same way some Nigerians defend our leaders when the foreign media term them corrupt despots. We accuse them of prejudice as against focusing on the issue.

Let the issue of 'agbero' in Lagos come up again, then watch these same defensive folks come out with their lexical pitchforks.

The only way we are going to get better is tell ourselves the truth.

Well, the controversial ad was 16k

Disstroy is spot on.

The number one problem of the south is cultism of which Rivers State is the HQ.

For fvcks sake, it was very well known that sooo many cult clashes were sponsored by both Amaechi and Wike. The highest rate of political assassinations have to be in Rivers.

The reason this is an even bigger issue is that this has become a cultural issue. With whole languages, signs, dressings and symbol to go with them.

Less than 50% of students walk into any government secondary school and public university and doesn't come out belonging to one cult group or the other. One has to be very strongly resolved and averse to peer pressure to escape not joining any cult group.

And whether you believe it or not, gangsterism breeds violence ALWAYS!

disstroy is spot on. Insecurity is a big issue in Rivers and this insecurity is one not fueled by ideology or poverty but a nascent culture of gangsterism that has been groomed and nurtured by the state's political leaders.

Here in Ahoda person no dey dey scared again if u hear gunshots na normal thing.

DissTroy:

Rivers is so violent, a gunshot in the air wouldn't scare the residents. Hard as nails. Loud bang like "kpos!!!" and in two minutes, people are moving around like nothing is happened. In the creeks, kids would tell you what gun type makes a particular sound.
