sonofthunder:




The city town is today an eyesore...... Nicknamed the "keke rich city of warri" as that is now the town's major employer of labour.

Hunchogee:

[s]Senseless fool going mentally viral every where you see Akwa ibom thread[/s]

RuudVanNisteroy:
More of Airport Road, Warri-Road I used everyday to secondary school.

omoharry:
Warri has always carried last with thier stupid gragra attitude, that have succeeded in driving away investors from thier state . The only business flushing there are ,hotels,event planing and beer parlour business and other small & petty business . This is becos they have succeeded chaseing away good companies that could have employed so many of our youth with thier stupid gragra...
Now it's seems that the only major employers of Labour are Goverment and some few banks. Warri is now a ghost of itself ...Warri no dey carry last my ass.

RuudVanNisteroy:

Warri is much bigger than you think, even though Onitsha may have twice it's population and more densely populated.

RuudVanNisteroy:
Osubi Airport Warri that used to be managed by Shell.

RuudVanNisteroy:
NNPC Housing estate,Warri-The refinery never worked due to massive corruption, I wonder what all the employees did to earn their pay.

Former Shell estate Edjeba, Warri

RuudVanNisteroy:
When it comes to massive corruption Delta,Bayelsa,Edo,Akwa Ibom and Rivers will give Lagos a run for it's money. This states should be model states and be the most developed based on the 13% derivation and huge concentration of oil companies in the area, since 1999. And should have eased the pressure on Lagos and Abuja.

wildikeman:



Na werey be this.. Wow.

So if Nigeria plan something like this, dem go die... Our leaders are wicked

RuudVanNisteroy:
Warri nor dey carry last.

Warri was the city I was born and raised in as a Yoruba boy. So, many good memories.

This city had major oil corporations that employed thousands of oil workers in Shell, Chevron, NNPC, Halliburton, Schlumberger, Neconde and many other small oil servicing companies. This city should have been a pride not only to Nigeria, but Africa. There was a lot of oil money flowing around and it also had a large number of expatriate staff who came from England, Netherlands, United States and many other countries working for the various oil companies.

The city is now a ghost of it's self. Most of the major oil companies and oil serving companies have moved their offices to Lagos or Port Harcourt,due to the insecurity in the city and kidnapping of oil companies staff.

This is a city that could have rivaled Abuja, Nairobi, Windhoek, Cape Town if resources where properly utilized to tranform this oil rich city.

Can people still living in Warri upload pictures of the present developments.

dasparrow:


Aren't you a South African? Since when did you suddenly become a Warri boy? You are an imposter!

its even worse in SE to rent a field, or a public school's field, youths from the community will ask for settlement.

nams77:
It is so terrible the state warri has sunk into. Like the op, I am not an indigene, but was given birth to, and raised there.
It is a shame. When I was younger, I used to visit me dad's office along enerhen road. During break hours, you will see a troop of men coming out of several companies around that axis for lunch. The whole place was vibrant and bubbling with life.
Companies like Camco, Texaco, schlumberger, B+B etc. Today, that road is a ghost of itself.
Its painful.
I also blame the youth. Their incessant restiveness drove away all these companies. The government also failed too in provided needed security.
The one wey dey pain me pass na that one wey dey call himself road master, yet all the road don scstter finish. People like Uduaghan and Okowa should be stoned.

Good... We need more of this Nigeria!

This is my state kano...

Let's hold out politicians accountable for our Allocations!
We will surely get there!

RuudVanNisteroy:

Nuhu Ribadu said James Ibori looted 50% of the state allocation during his 8 year tenure. On the other hand Lucky Igbinedion i'm sure was likely looting 90% of the state allocation, couldn't even fix the road to his mansion in GRA Benin, . And Oshiomhole was almost as bad, he started borrowing money to loot in Edo.

Edo state has an external debt is N276 Billion, and domestic debt of N100 billion with nothing major to show for the debt and imagine this is in addition to state allocation and IGR. Look at Godwin Obaseki he had nothing to show for his 4 years, and only got support because Edo state people do not support godfatherism like Lagosians.
