My people and excessive lies. This is massive indeed. Even the chicken coops massive pass this. What sane governor won't tear rubbish like this down. Now I know why some region celebrate the mere construction of roads with no drainages. Such backwardness. Shio!

Princedapace:



why the hate tagging? I use God beg nairalanders to stop all these indirect hate comments. The governor is right and the people crying are also right. Pls. i have been to all the regions in Nigeria and Im still searching for that region that has developed... no region in Nigeria has developed jareeee. not even Lagos or Abuja..

no region is better than the other pls...

DaBullIT:

As Gov. Okorocha demolishes and builds in the state capital, see the hole he dug to collect floods at the centre of the state's second most populated town, Orlu. He did this instead of completing a gutter less than 800 meters length to channel all the town's floods to a nearby valley, a drainage project started by a former governor of Imo state.

If Okorocha had rescued the people in Okigwe and Orlu by asphalting their roads which his contractors scrapped and abandoned in the last four years, perhaps, the uproar against his bulldozers in Owerri may be muted.

He is a governor with a later-day obsession with a false idea that a state's capital must have more than 95% share of whatever modernity his govt can provide in a state.

But in 2011, he campaigned with a mantra that Imo government house shall rotate from one area to the other. People voted him for that.

This is very simple.

Follow the rules of laws in your State.

It is not the job of the Government,to relocate people who build illegal structures,on grounds they should first of all not have gone near.

And one thing I know,and that is the part of the story we usually never hear. Government usually,sometimes for years tell them to move,but many usually stay put and then we get this kind of pictures.

I stand on the side of good Governance.

No to illegal structures.
I think somebody must be daring as a leader to maintain order . This exactly is what the Governor is doing in the state. Painful as it is,but those who broke the law are simply paying for their stupidity .

Owerri has very few bad roads if you are being truthful. Don't misrepresent facts because of politics. Some of the roads he is reconstructing now were reconstructed in his 1st tenure but then he was doing window dressing because the Government at the center was against him making him unable to take difficult decisions that might infuriate the masses. He was a populist Governor but not very purposeful. What I am seeing in his 2nd tenure is actual solution and to develop a lot of sacrifices must be made by all.

I commend him for taking the bull by the horn but what must be done is to compensate the poor who survived at the shanties and illegal structures. I know the structures are illegal but sometimes we tamper justice with mercy because of the economic conditions we are facing at the moment.

There's no problem demolishing illegal structures. The problem is when you start demolishing every and any structure for reasons in your head.
A man wakes up one morning and decides to expand all roads in town at the same time(when all roads outside town are in serious disrepair) and brings down all structure even though they have are approved by the town planning commission and have an adequate spacing from the road. He has refused the court injunction to stop work and nothing can be done because of his immunity. Half of the city in in shambles presently. With the present recession, is this really the best time for demolition and destruction
The worst issue is that, Rochas doesn't finish his projects. He has brought down all these structures ( legal and illegal alike) for nothing. Examples of abandoned projects are: owerri at 40 estate, general Hospitals in every local government, underground carpark, fly over in akwakuma, numerous roads etc.

A true scammer at work.

cochexky:
my friend go and do you investigation very well before you act inhuman. Rochas is the antichrist you hear about, you must be his agent before you comment this crap. [color=#990000][/color]

nkemdi89:

God bless you, please wherever you are I owe you a bottle of Andre. Most people don't know you have to give 15m from the road before erecting any structure, later some will start blaming the governor.

Have you seen a rich man who just buy land anywhere without due diligence? Have you also noticed that rich people always go to a properly planned areas to buy land and build houses? Why? Because before you but a land you do due diligence and you will get proper information on the area that's why the rich dudes are not affected . Go and learn but no. How will you learn when you 're filled with sentiments. Open your mind and learn

You are the serpent the bible told us a treacherous person,if you do not repent i lay course on you .stop deceiving people

cochexky:
ok wait , where are you from ? am from owerri and in owerri so what the hell are u talking about ? do you really support what Rochas is doing here ? my Brother wake up from sleep.

Bobbybube:

An Obviously brainwashed and hypnotized hypocrite on this thread defined a fool as "a person who ignored information because it disagreed with desired results".
I supplied the thread with facts, figures and cogent information. If you disagree with them then bring up your own verifiable facts and make a coherent argument ; if you however, choose to ignore information because it disagrees with you( as you did above) and throw weak, childish and off-point insults (as you did above) then you are truly a fool... according to your definition.
