How much are you being paid for all this propaganda.
All the elegant houses you are uploading here are all Private Properties.
How about telling us how Rocha's is using 600 Million for Xmas decoration in Owerri.

I guess to you theres nothing wrong with too many hotels littered around owerri (no offense meant) but now i see why you have issues with people here.I used to think you were unjustly attacked. I wonder if your eye sight is clear.. owerri dont need thousands of hotels before its known that its a "showbiz" place. Even if rochas wanted to make it so wgjy hotels? Why not Venture into things like amusement parks, resorts, etc like that, that will generate money .Calabar and Uyo that have more money and are nice too dont have industries but they worked on making their state not just beautiful but also a nice tourist spot. Honestly ive given up hope on imo. I use to think Rochas was that man that would turn things around, obviously not

Imo State Governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, has expressed delight at the on-going 34th edition of annual Federation of Public Service Games (FEPSGA) tagged ‘Imo 2015’ in Owerri, Imo State’s capital, saying the competition will boost the local economy of the state.

Speaking to newsmen after declaring the games open at the Dan Anyiam stadium in Owerri, he said the state has made history as the first Eastern state to host the annual games.

“This is the first time FEPSGA is being hosted in the south-east, 34 years of the games. We are proud to be the first from this part of the world to host the games.

“We are expecting not less than 10, 000 participants and most of them will spend little money for calls, transportation, accommodation, feeding and so on, and this will help boost our local economy,” he stated.

According to the governor, by hosting the 34th edition of the public service games, Imo State is by implication hosting the unity of the country through sports, assuring the organisers that the state is willing to host the next edition of the championship in 2016.

“It is a source of unity, seeing people from different part of the country coming to Imo State to relax, interact and have fun together. It is a show of love and unity and this is good for our nation at this particular time of our life as a nation.

‘This is a good development which is aimed at keeping civil servants in the state fit and healthy and we are willing to host the next edition again.”

Speaking earlier, the president of FEPSGA, Comrade Hassan Dahiru, commended the state government and the good people of Imo State for their hospitality, saying the federation had settled for Imo State of the staging of the 2015 edition of the game because of the memorable stories about state’s feats in tourism, sports facilities, security network and hospitality.

He commended Governor Okorocha for accepting to host the games, and providing the enabling environment for the successful hosting of games.

The governor was also honour and decorated as an icon of sports and Goodwill Ambassador of FEPSGA.

This thread is not really about Rochas but to showcase sights and sounds of Imo for potential diasporan investors. Rochas has maintained the roads and made them better which is commendable. No road lasts without maintenance otherwise we wouldn't be talking about Douglas and Umuapu roads.

Pchidexy:
Imo people and criticism! Chai! What is wrong in showing the beauty of the state so that investors can come in.

Chinese Investors Visit Imo

Mr. Mathew Uwakwe a Nigerian Representative intend to
set up a refinery, electronics production factory and
chemical based production plant in Imo State and also, to
train and employ Imo citizens and in all these fields.

This is in line with His Excellency's fulfillment of the
industry, industry, job, job and employment, employment
promise he made to Imo citizens as he welcomed the
Chinese investors and assured them of his full support in
the industrialisation of the state.

mandax:


Good you said beauty of the state.
Do like to show-case development in the entire Imo state - not only Owerri.
These days, there is nothing to show about recent developments in Imo state outside Owerri.

Any body, including a governor that likes development only in Owerri hates Imo state, in fact, the person or governor is sowing evil seeds for the future in Imo state.


If as little as 20% of population of Imo citizens venture into settling in Owerri, as government denies provision of social infrastructure outside Owerri these days, the city of Owerri shall soon become a dumping ground - slum city.

eaglechild:
I must say that Owerri looks cleaner nowadays.

Very good move by the enchanter, all he needed to do was hang up some Christmas decorations, patch up some potholes in strategic locations with substandard materials, pile up some rocks plastered with cement awkwardly with water running through it and get the major roads swept(I genuinely like that) and voila! the gullible are won over.

Meanwhile pensioners continue to die in numbers from unpaid pensions, civil servants continue to admire the lights with empty stomachs and the major inner streets and rural roads are completely untouched.
Hospitals are run aground, the health sector is dead and buried but I guess we prefer Christmas lights.
