@onye_ngbu. . . Why are you afraid of the truth? I said; the green and clean photo are very old, the fly-over photo is over 2years old yet the project is not fully completed. Can you point out where I lied? I can't lie because I've got nothing to benefit.

desertboom:

Good to see that even the native of the state are begining to see things the right way, they don't want fake and deceitful photos rather practical and real completed developmental project photos . Many of those photos are lies, fake, political and very deceitful. I'm not here to talk tough but to point out misleading  information. Some of the photo are real while some are political and campaign photo used by Ohakim and co to deceive innocent people. You may have done it innocently with a pure and sincere heart to project your state but we know the truth enough said! @BiafraFirstSon. I won't tell you my state to avoid tribalism, I don't involve in tribal abuses.

Let the truth be told,  These are both old and new pix's taken before and after ohakim  adminstation (using Google images can verify the dates of some of the pix's or were like the ones taken for the imo state investment summit 2010 guide book cos i was there)  Showing them now is simply means that you and some person's who post and support them do work for the government,  Just trying to gain recognition as being active. I am yet to see new pix's of what this new government has done. Pls try and focus on other ways of promoting the achievements yet to be done by this government.  Thank you

I have consistently implored chamber1 give up this campaign.  He has not showed us any meaningful investment in imo state that can absorb the army of the unemployed youths in the state, he has not showed us any rural roads reconstruction which am sure they are in a pitiable conditions. As a matter of fact Imo state does not start and end with Owerre, the same owerri is quite small that a drop of paint or block will be so noticeable that everybody can see it. In my candid opinion I think imo state govt should look beyond owerri if they can't expand the town further to befit state capital, they should look in areas like Orlu and Okigwe those areas has been left to decay as a no-man's land.

@chamber. Hahaha. . . I laugh you with your blah blah blah, my state this, my state that. A good number of your people from your state are also enjoying prosperity of life and good education in my state too, many have not even been to their home town before because of good life offered to them, my state has offered your people with scholarship, security, education and many poverty alleviation programs. You thought I'll tell you my state of origin so that you'll quickly engage me in tribal talk. For your information, I'm not a tribalist and I'm not against progress too. My point is for people to know the reality on ground not just some fancy cheap billboard photo. It's very funny that you've labelled me with all manner of names and tag me evil, and enemy of progress just to prove your point and project yourself higher. We're talking about your fake advert and photo of Owerri so stick to it. If you don't like it I'll tell again that many of this your photo are political photos enough said!

desertboom:

I said; Remove the the fly-over photo, there is no such completed project here in Owerri. We don't need to see painted picture of how it will be, people want to see real things. Many of those very clean and green photos are political and deceitful, Hate me for saying the truth for all I don't care. People should stop acting out of emotions and sentiment here, say the truth and say it the way it is   

dagboss:

@chamber2
Is this fly over completed now? This  picture looks like the huge bill board displayed around the construction site. I was in Owerri sometimes February while it was still under construction and i actually satyed in one new private hotel very close to the construction site.

dave170:

obowunmi:

will there be any solution to this problem ?

owerri is a neat and decent city , not much industries there but you can tell they have a high percentage of middle class citizens, few very rich dudes loots of young women  and little or almost no poor people(except for almajiros that are slowly invading the city), if nigeria was a better place , one can easily be working or doing  buisness in ph,aba,onitsha and after work take a train back to cities like calabar,owerri ,enugu ,yenogoa.

Lord Naya:

@Chambers thanks for u for being polite nd tolerating all de insults, provocations nd lies by people full of envy and hate. Owerri is indeed a beautiful place to stay. @freecocoa must u abuse de people of owerri? Why cant u just make your comments with insults? It is your village and state dat is full of not only wicked but devilish people at least judging from your posts. Imo and indeed Owerri is full of God fearing, peaceful and industrous people. If u cant control your hate/envy, go and commit suicide. @desertbroom your northern jungle is no where near owerri. Read vanguard news for 11-10-2011 one of the headlines reads "200 communities in the north displaced by desertification" little wonder u choose 2 school in owerri. Abi who no like beta tin? If u were as enlightened as u claim u wont be bias in your argument. I xpect u 2 say both the negative nd positive side of owerri. @Ndi Igbo owuru ihenine i hunyuru ki g'ekwu. Yes, ihe gbasara fly over wu ashi but owur'ihenine ihunuru ki g'ekwu. Óbuna n'ówu ndi ugwu mó ndi Yoruba, ha g'ekwe nó wu ashi? Why do u want to be an angel in hell? @all the poster just want to portray the good side of owerri it doesnt mean that owerri dont have its shortcomings just as every city in the world. Peace be on to you

@ chambers,

Nice pictures, keep representing your state my brother. I'm sure some on here will love to see pictures of bad road, trash, and  pullet holes on houses

from the war. Gone are the days,Southeast has risen again, and by the grace of God Southeast will be the new Dubai of Africa.

desertboom:

@chamber. You are the one being ignorant and deluded here. Didn't you read where I said construction is ongoing? 'prototype' why didn't you tell us from the start? Why must you feed us fake and deceitful information? You knew It's a prototype yet you flaunt it as if It's a completed project.

desertboom:

My internet connection is very poor, I didn't see some of the comments above my post that's why It's like that and If you're observant you'll see that my post is repeated because of poor internet service. Where did you get the fly-over photo from? So you're aware that the fly-over photo is fake and you went ahead to post it here for us to believe your cheap lie. Don't you think it makes you a liar? You've to apologise to us all for  flaunting fake and deceitful photo.

chy101:

@chamber2, you may have to give up this campaign, because it has turned out that its all still on bill boards as people have consistently commented here, its not yet on the ground and from all indications it was never planned to be on the ground.

desertboom:

@chamber2. . . I'm not here for tribal war, I'm[b] too enlighten[/b] to engage in tribal gymnastic with you. Yes. . . Those very clean and green  photos were fabricated by Ohakim to deceive people, you may have seen it online and decided to post it here, for example; you posted a photo of a fully completed bridge/fly-over here for us to see how Owerri is developing. Sir. . . There is no such fly-over yet here in Owerri, construction is ongoing in Orji and Amakohia by some incompetent philipines that scatter and build everyday. Can you tell me where there is such fly-over you posted here in Owerri? I'll like to visit and see for myself. Those photos are deceit, lies, fake and political. I'm not a visitor here, I'm living and studying here.  

arsenal1:

The only picture there that I can't identify its location in Owerri is the flyover.

freecocoa:

Come Op go rest jare,gave us admission and accommodated us my a$$,am I not paying school fees?don't I pay house rent?my friend, I wrote and passed both Jamb and aptitude test besides my school is owned by the FG so don't tell me what I know,if you like stay there and be claiming what's not true,if owerri is the way that pix says it is then I guess it all happened this night cos I left owerri today,I regret schooling in that miserable town filled with wicked people.

desertboom:

@chamber2. . . The truth must be told. Those clean and green photos are political and in terms of infrastructure Owerri is backward. I've been in this state for 4years now so I know what I'm saying, like it or hate it that is the truth. We're talking about the photo you posted here not about being grateful for staying and school in IMO STATE.

I have read with acatalectic disgust, governments asinine and puerile ratiocinations attempting to justiceate the proposed removal of subsidies from petroleum products.It has asseverated that it’s intentions is guided by the need to checkmate the odoriferous excesses of a machiavellian and mephistophelean cabal and i have said to myself,what a shame?What a self indicting admittal of the failure of governance?What an hocus-pocus?

What an anathematous disdain for it’s citizenry? Must the people now bear the brunt for governments ineptitude,inefficiency and pusillanimity in squaring up with these economic philistines and fat cows? I feel even more nauseated and vexed that the Governors Forum has posthaste conferred an apocalyptic imprimatur on this genie.Let’s not forget that majority of these same Governors had earlier called for this state of affairs as a condition sinequanon for paying the minimum wage.What an opprobrium?What a deprecable descent from the sublime to the ridiculous?It’s up to us all to put this Presidential and Gubernatorial genie back into the bottle but are we prepared?


This man no go kill me ohhhh

kcjazz:

Truth be told Owerri has developed really slowly, Real Estate in this part has being really slow (wonder why?). I like the idea of a new Owerri to direct commerce, Douglas road is terrible. Owerri has old city problem but they can take a cue from Asaba Nnebisi road.

BTW Was that the cathedral in Green n white? that is terrible, iconic building but with the wrong colors and road that doesn't help its beauty

desertboom:

@freecocoa. . . You're very correct. I school in Owerri too. Infact, my school is located right in the city. The clean and green photo is a political photo by Ohakim to show the world how IMO STATE is developing in terms of infrastructure. There is nothing spectacular and elegant about Owerri. Nothing can ever bring me back to this state after my first degree

when I wrote “its not that beautiful”,I mean its not the way the pictures and you paint it to be,to me its not fine sef.
The way una dey take praise the town come dey make me wonder whether no be there I dey again?
Owerri is far from all that so STOP SPREADING LIES ABEG.

chy101:

@ OP, please don't be angered, can you please show us any capital investment in Imo state, I think that is the real dividend of democracy; development does not start and end with constructing a few KM of roads in the urban area, what about the rural areas? Well that is by the way, I think Imo state should go beyond mere road painting (only in Owerri) to investing in areas that can improve the state economy and its IGR just like its neighbors are doing, attracting investors that can invest in meaning ventures possibly (production/manufacturing) that will employ the youths gainfully and not building hotels here and there. What has come out of the job offer by the past government, where people were asked to pay 10k for application form
