Kinematics won't like the bitter truth. I have severally told him that even as a Rivers man I know too well that PORT HARCOURT is 80% slum. Almost every corner of PORT HARCOURT is dotted with shanties.
every state has a slum/shanties and most cities world wide.....slums in pH are mostly found in town( marine base, bundu, nembe/bile/bonny waterside and parts of diobu). That's like 10% of rivers state . Have you being to omoku, bonny, Onne, abonnema, Ada geogre-agip axis, woji-odili road- amadi ama road axis, elekahi-rumomasi??...

After I chased you away from YouTube, you've run to nsiraland to wail.

My dog keep crying. Your Anambra remains a village and worthless state compared to Rivers

Instead of you to contribute meaningfully to the post, you are ranting and gallivanting to safe face and hide the ugly situation of things. Maybe when it turns to a full scale health hazard, you will summon courage to face the truth. Even tho, those who presented their experience might not get the full picture. It's still what they experienced, you don't need to engage in a pity party face-saving adventure just to cover up the mess that oozes, for it will eventually find it's way out, and it's already sef. We need to address things as they are, if we truly want the change we desire. Your people, the government and private coy are all complicit in this activities, and the resultant effects are what will bounce back in the masses, including you and your loved ones if appropriate measures are not taken. If in years to come PH has an outbreak of health issues as a result of environmental pollution, it will definitely put a strain on the government purse and overwhelm the health sector. So it's better preventive measures is taken to curtail a lurking health disaster. You might be lucky, but what of your relatives and loved ones, that do not have the same immune strength as you do, if a health hazard occurs. I hope you get this and understand, that no one is bashing you or your PH here. It's a general problem, even here in Ibadan, we have pollution of environment as a result of illegal dumping of refuse. So I should because, I am an Ibadan boi, and turn my face sideways and defend my city. No never! I want better for me and everyone else around me, in doing this, I will be part of the voice that sounds the shortcomings of the inhabitants, the government and every participants, even me. We don't have to be lawless and think everything will just fall into place. It's very wrong, and meanwhile the article did not sound on prostitution, armed robbery and other vices. It was majorly on the health risk, as a result of environmental pollution of chemicals from illegal refining of crude oil. So don't play emotional games here. If PH better, Shay na me wey dey Ibadan go enjoy am? Na you and your relatives living within, even other states will take a cue, and be forced to follow suit. Look at akwa ibom now, I have never been there but what I have been seeing online makes gives me joy, and I wish other governor's can borrow same leaf and find creative ways to develop the state which they govern.

PORT HARCOURT is predominantly slums. The only place free from slum is GRA.

From oginigba to ogbunabali to town to Diobu to elekahia to nkpogu to rumuola to rumukrushi to RUMUOKORO, etc, everywhere in PORT HARCOURT is shanties.

Ha ha ha.

Aboki as usual on divide and conquer and exploit set you up against neighbors of your Rivers state. When will you develop more sense?

They have turned the thread into war between Rivers state and Igbos.

They earlier used Wike for the purpose.
And the Queen whatever is not an Aboki right?The truth still remains the truth no matter how you want to see it. The creator of this thread is igbo, the lovely queen whatever is igbo.

99%of wh0res in Rivers state are from Imo,Enugu and Akwa ibom state.

That is the truth.

If I don't know Rivers State I would have passed. But let me tell you something about rivers State.

2005 February 17th I bought 50 speed boat with double engine,for Bonny Island, wholesale price, I never made profit from that business,

The old boat owners saw me as a threat, they sabotaged my boat, my boat was sinking on every trip, similar thing happening to Peace motors, thousands of people still died after I held prayer and fasting.

Just Forget these people, they are their own problems, they don't want to go to school, they don't have hand work. only bunkering and cultism. and sex


they always claim "son of the soil title" . inshort most of them are wasted. every month Oil companies does cleanup because they won't work, they prefer breaking pipes

that is why they hardly travel to other states, they feel rivers State is the center of the universe

50 speed boats ?
