rtdCivilservant: You exemplify the rate people from Orlu zone insult and fight themselves everywhere now. It's a legacy which Rochas Okorocha and Hope Uzodinma are leaving for people in the zone. Unfortunate. Most of what Okorocha built in his Ideato area have been left to ruin by Uzodinma. Most of what Udenwa built in his area have been decommissioned by Uzodinma. What will happen to what Uzodinma is building in his home area after he leaves office? 5 Likes |

Ran away from here long ago hoping to return with applause when people of the so-called most educated state in Naija protested the non existence of social infrastructures in parts of Imo state outside the capital territory; and the state govt bowed to the demands of the people. But No Dice. For example, Rochas Okorocha's administration started the process of modernising social infrastructures in Anara, Okigwe, Orlu, Nwaorieubi, etc. and built quasi uncountable number of rural roads from the scratch, all over Imo state; however substandard the construction, because of the numerosity of the roads. Those Okorocha's roads opened up many of the once inaccessible rural areas in Imo state, and joined them to the state's transportation grid. How many of those rural roads, most of them now dilapidated, have been reconstructed even with asphalt since this administration came on board? Building roads from the scratch is not asa anwuru, not cheap; reconstruction is by far, very much cheaper. Tufiakwa, akpata atufu, ejighi ya aba ogaranya. Interprete: a state governor abandoning the devt efforts of his predecessors, is an incalculable loss to the entire people of the state. A few years back, a governor from the SW region described Imo state as a state of "build and destroy or abandon." 2 Likes |

rtdCivilservant: Seplat should start processing gas and employ Imolites immediately. I look forward to seeing the impact the projects will make on the IGR, GDP and overall development of Imo State, especially the host community. The management of Waltersmith Modular Refinery is still expanding its refining capacity and planning an industrial park in the same area. This is the perfect time for real estate developers to move to Ohaji/Egbema/Oguta axes and build decent estates there because those axes hold enormous oil and gas potential. 1 Like |

Does anyone have update on this beautiful market built by a private investor during Okorocha administration? I believe it should be one of the most beautiful markets in Nigeria after the new Ariaria market. 3 Likes

In contrast Orlu is looking unkempt with heaps of sand on roads and demarcations along the newly built Owerrii road while the older roads done by Okorocha in 2012 are riddled with potholes and need rehabilitation. Unlike Owerri Tricycles and motorcycles persist as the major means of transportation in Orlu township. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxkPmp0hFxE?si=enwKvDFmvNji_ODJ 5 Likes |

Ttipsy: These idiots called Nigerian politicians should stop being stupid. There is no other place in the world where they still build roads with open gutters, except Nigeria and some other unfortunate West African countries. Gosh, the money these bastards steal is enough to cover all gutters and plant trees. 7 Likes |

Re: Few Pics From Imo State by Amah70: 7:56pm On May 24 |
rtdCivilservant: You started insulting with your question: "What is this incoherent man taking?" as your reply to me for talking about my place of origin. It's like you don't even understand when you insult someone. The same manner you don't understand that it's most primitive of you or anyone to drag another's mum or dad into your insulting jamborees online. You deserve to have two of your teeth yanked off.

Hello guys. I have been following the Eastern threads on Nairaland as a guest for about 4 months now and as a person who has spent all his life in Lagos, I must confess that the South East is much better than the picture I had previously painted in my mind. As an Igbo man who has never crossed Asaba before, the pictures I have seen from the 5 eastern threads on Nairaland has made me decide that I must visit the East when next I travel to Asaba for Christmas. With the kind of beautiful pictures I have been seeing here and the mindset most Nigerians have about the East, there seem to be a disconnect because most Nigerians don't even know that good things happen in the East. You guys are trying with the exposure by taking pictures of the various Eastern cities but it is not really enough. I think it is time to get more professional with our exposure drive. Nairaland is good for exposure as it's pages get indexed by Google quickly but Nairaland has some disadvantages which are: 1) Images on Nairaland are heavily compressed so they lose much of their quality. 2) The images on various pages are usually mixed with awkward images posted by people who may be envious of the development strides of the East. It does not go well when a tourist is viewing images of Owerri or Onitsha on Nairaland and starts seeing dirty images of wastes and canals, some of which are not even images from the East. Due to the disadvantages I mentioned above, I am here with a collaborative proposal where we can come together to promote the East on more professional and popular image platforms like Pinterest, Getty, Unsplash and Pexels etc. The idea is to put our heads together, take beautiful pictures of our cities and get them to be accepted on those platforms I mentioned earlier. I wanted to do this alone but, I currently live and work in Lagos so it's impossible for me to take pictures of the East. Here is how it will work: 1) We create a group where we can share suggestions and images. All members of the group will be known as "contributors". 2) I will be responsible for photo editing, keyword and key phrase research, and uploading the images on the various platforms. Those platforms have pretty high standards for the quality of the images uploaded there, and that is were I come in to edit the photos to try to meet their quality standards. 3) You guys who usually upload images on Nairaland can share these high quality images in a Zip file in the group so I can work on them. I am hoping that if we get images of our cities on those image platforms, it can help in creating better exposure of the cities in the East. If you search for images of our cities on Google or Pinterest, you may not be impressed with what you will see. Most of the images are of very poor quality which is a huge turn off and they don't really showcase the East well enough. It also doesn't have to be stressful, all we need are about 20 - 50 images of each major Eastern city. That should be enough at least for now. I am currently working on creating accounts on the platforms I listed and I am hoping to get collaborators to join me on this small project. Remember that we don't always have to wait for someone somewhere to do it, we can actually do it ourselves. If you are interested in this project, kindly quote me. I will open either a WhatsApp group or a Telegram group for all members/contributors to join. Please I also want you all to note that this not a money making venture, so don't expect to get financial rewards. If you are familiar with the platforms I listed above, you will know that they are all free platforms. The mission of this project is to promote our land and not to make money just as you don't make a dime from Nairaland. If you intend to make money from selling your pictures, you can as well open the accounts yourself and do your business. 3 Likes |

miscellaneous12: Your otherwise lengthy but innocuous comment here on 24/05/2024, the day you registered first on NL, can attract suspicions. If not, you have what could pass as good ideas. But on Imo state, you get bored by the time some people dish out photos of every road junction in Owerri while knowledgeable ones question why Owerri city is the only place with modern urban infrastructures in Imo state. 1 Like |
