Several residents of Owerri the Imo State capital have been displaced after a downpour that lasted over 12 hours and has left the city flooded.

Affected victims who placed sos calls to our correspondent in Imo State, say the areas mostly affected where properties worth millions have been damaged include the Federal Housing Estate at Chukwuma Nwoha road, old CBN quarters at Egbu road as well as Federal Housing World Bank Estate.

Displaced victims have called on the state government to come to their aid.

Several states in the country have witnessed heavy rains and flooding following earlier warnings by relevant government agencies for some states to brace up for heavy rains this year.

However, this is the first major rain to be recorded in Imo state this year

NEMA and well meaning citizens should come to their aid. Time for IPOB and their sympathizers to show they truly love Igbos.

No call Rochas here. Nobody called out Ambode for Lekki, Ugwuanyi for Enugu or Wike for Port Harcourt.

Ordinarily, those areas mentioned don't experience this kind of flood. Something must have caused the diversion of the floodwaters into those areas.

They have killed Kanu that is why Buhari sent Northern Governors, VP to Condolence with Ikpazue and quickly made IPOB terrorist organization as a way to cover up the crime commited by Nigeria army. All this News NK said this or that is a way to cover up, Kanu is not the type that hide away.
