The op is not getting the type of response he desired. Let us call Igbos bad name so that he will sleep well tonight.

abobote:

Let us tell ourselves the truth, oyibos can do it better than us, they are less corrupt too.

You don't just jump to criticize everything

You think if oyibos were given the electricity to handle, we won't have 25hrs light by now

Rubbish.

Is that why you Congo pygmies are now claiming Judas ?

More problems for Awaiting trial inmates.

By the way, I got to learn of this oyibo's appointment not from 9ja Twitter but 4chan's notorious /Pol/ were they are making fun of us.


Pathetic.

Gidgiddy, when will you guys fix the chronic water supply issue in your Biafra capital?

Parachoko:
Lol

Maybe the Oyinbo man lives in Enugu and have the solution to the issue

This is not rocket science .

Enugu is surrounded by hills . just pipe water from 9th mile up to one or several high grounds and let gravity do its work.

No.


This useless governor is not interested in fixing the water problem but using this Oyibo placeholder to steal money under consultancy .

Even a common plumber can fix Enugu water issue .

Why involve this Oyibo scammer if not that this is another scam in the making.

When Zik, in 1959, as Premiere of old eastern region, moved the capital from Calabar to Enugu for his own parochial tribal sentiments , he forgot to do an EIA to see if Enugu has any groundwater or water body to supply his 0koro capital

Fast forward to present day and Enugu city is the only city in the south with a chronic water supply problem.

If you ever been to Enugu you will know that the city of 4 million depends mostly and solely on tanker water supply from 9th Mile .

Bore holes and wells are not an option as there is a very deep shale bed very close to the surface that makes water percolation impossible seeing to no natural underground water reservoirs.

Even borehole drilling can't solve the problem because as you drill beyond the deep shale bed , you will encounter natural gas or coal. Where there is none of that, expect to see a dense layer of lead .

Open wells that dot the city landscape are nothing but subsurface flows during the rainy season and in high density areas, are heavily polluted from soakaway flows .

It's for this reason that Enugu depends on water tankers shipping water daily from 9th mile.
A 4,000 gallon water tank cost as much as 6k during the rainy season and as high as 9k in the rainy season. A 25lite Jerry can of water cost as much as #200.

Every major hotel in that city owns a personal water tanker or two.

Other than in some parts of the old city layout were tap water supply is sclerotic, all other suburbs and slums depend on water tankers.

Now imagine the monthly cost for just water for a family .

Enugu is one city in the south were water borne disease is rife. I caught cholera once just eating in a restaurant when I went there briefly for business.

Cholera!

Thypoid nah their malaria for there because of sewage contamination in wells that most depend on during the rainy season.

It really baffled me how such a very well laid out and planned city (after Abuja, Enugu is the most well planned city in Nigeria) can suffer from such a basic and critical necessity.

I asked myself if after all these years, none of their mayor's,governors could not solve or rather were not willing to solve this most basic infrastructure.

I even told my igbo friend that only an igbo man can survive under such arrangement since they are the only ones that can afford to throw money away for such basic necessity without recourse to demand for govt intervention.

Now , the newly sworn governor has began his own nonsense by appointing one Oyibo from nowhere to help solve the chronic water problem ?

To me, this appointment is just another way and means to fleece the people of Enugu (a city and people I truly love despite being in the yeast )under the guise of consultancy.
