What is the use of that worthless thing sit on and wasting a piece of land?

Why would you spend state money to demolish a structure built with state money?

oz4real83:
what the new governor is demolishing doesn't belong to Rochas Okorocha. It wasn't built with Rochas' money. It belongs to Imo state indigenes. It shouldn't be destroyed based on ideological or political differences. If the project is viable,I advise the new governor to build on it.

Can you mention one good use of that project

Because it is wasting the land it was built on

He hasn't built anything yet. He is starting with destruction.

Derring:
Dis action was in tandem with people that their lands was forcefully taken to build the shit called monument.
Government of the people!
Ihedioha will make Imo working again.

well i wanted to rant but your thought made me see the issue from another point of view. i know that area very well it used to be dumpsite/bush.
ihedioha should not Bleep up oh. No one ever believed an mbaise man would rule imo state. he should use this opportunity to show imolites that mbaise people are great and wonderful people.

if rochas forcefully collected that peice of land without compensation to build akachukwu then it should be destroyed and returned to the owners

Hope you won't die untimely due to lies and false witnessing!!! That place was dump site, bush ~ extreme end of wethral road just beside ogbo osisi market. Always smoke coming from there. . No road there.
That road was opened to my suprise, and a short cut to Nazi junction.
Although many believed the Akachi is an evil statue. I don't believe in those things though. Maybe that's why his first move was to bring it down.

Why destroying it? Wrong people at the helm of affairs

These are the type of leaders we have in this country. I think he should evaluate the project and ask questions...

Mk93:

U rushed to quote me instead of thinking more about my statement. I used the word ''if'' meaning a conditionality. I didn't categorically say the project was viable.

So the new governor should further waste Imo resources abi?
Two wrong can never make a right bro!

How many people are visiting that useless thing and what is the impact in the economy of the state?

Copied from Facebook Wall

The People Whose Land Were Forcefully Taken By Okorocha Are Demolishing Akachi: Not Governor Emeka Ihedioha or any agent of the state government.

- Nwanne Governor reports: From the office of Umunne Governor.

Let it be known to all and sundry that the newly sworn-in Imo state Governor, His Excellency, RT. Hon. Emeka Ihedioha CON, did not authorise the demolition of this structure.

What happened was that the family whose land were forcefully taken by the outgone Gov. Rochas Okorocha administration without due process had gone to court to challenge the unlawful acts of the despotic former governor and won back their family land from the tribunals.

Gov. Emeka Ihedioha whom his predecessor ran away from handing over to could not have had any document on any of the state government's projects or properties and hence could not have authorised the demolition in vacuum in less than 24hrs after being sworn in.

His Excellency Rt. Hon. Emeka Ihedioha is a known meticulous public administrator who can not carry out government functions without having documents to back off his actions.

If the state government under Governor Ihedioha will carry out state functions, they will not be carried out by an unknown labourer with one excavator.

These are some of the many wasteful ventures that the former governor will be leaving for his successor: many debt from won court cases against the state government due to lack of due process in governance.

Please kindly disregard the cheap blackmails directed at the new government by mischief makers with poorly executed propaganda.

Nwaogwugwu Nwanne Governor,
Publicity Secretary,
Umunne Governor.

His first mistake as a governor,
Oga build don’t destroy, if you must destroy, then build a better one. Biko

What kind of bitterness is this, why not start with the bad roads.

that is why Africa is not growing,why demolishing it,this man go worst pass okorocha.

Destroy the damn thing! Sell the land off to new buyers and make some money for the state.

This country is cursed with bad leaders. At the end money wasted. He go do his own nonsense and anoda will come demolish again. How can we move forward with this kind of mindset? Everything is politics

But seriously, this looks like a dark force

Much as Rochas so-called monuments were exercise in wastefulness, demolishing them shouldn't have been prioritized. Iheodioha should better buckle up for serious work.

Well the project and all okorocha statues are useless so the new governor is trying to recover the land and use it for project that will be helpful to the state

Cost of structure erected was from state's scarce resources.

Cost of demolition of structure is from state's scarce resources.

Losers : People of the state.

Gainers : The sentiments of depraved politicians.

Very bad... No matter what, it's his legacy

HE SHOULD NOT HAVE DEMOLISH THE STRUCTURES.

Let it stand.

If another governor comes and destroy the structure established by Governor Emeka Ihedioha he will not be happy.

Destroying such structures also makes it difficult for the EFCC to look into the financial books of the Rochas Okorocha administration as the ex-governor will claim what he spent Imolites money for was destroyed.

Remember Crude Oil money will not be available for too long to sustain this needless wastages of public money.


IN DELTA STATE, THE FORMER GOVERNOR, DR. EMMANUEL UDUAGHAN WASTED PUBLIC FUND TRYING TO COPY LAGOS BRT LANE SYSTEM IN THE POPULAR WARRI/EFFURUN SAPELE ROAD.

Dr Uduaghan never took time to study Lagos BRT lane system to understand its technicalities ( maybe he was looking for way to loot public fund )

Dr uduaghan hurried introduced the BRT Lane stretching from Warri Sapele Road down to Effurun roundabout wasting public funds and destroying the shops of traders whose store is by the road side.

At the end of the day with the coming of the governor Okowa led administration, the new government thought it wise to remove the BRT Lane structures because it was contributing to traffic congestion along the popular Warri Effurun Sapele road.

But it was a massive waste of public funds by the Dr. Uduaghan administration.

Dr. Udughan also wasted public funds amounting to billions of naira in one of his pet projects called WARRI INDUSTRIAL PARK.

The project is lying uncompleted and forgeting to history books along Chevron / NPA Expressway by Delta state Broadcasting Office Edjeba, Warri.

THAT IS THE MASSIVE WASTAGES POLITICIANS WHO STARTED FROM 1999 TILL DATE HAS BEEN DOING.

What project? The people of Imo should pay tax to maintain a shrine?

The destruction is even too late in my opinion, it should have started yesterday.

This is waste of time and resources

You're on point
It was forcefully collected.

N400 million. That's what we heard each statue cost. The way we waste money in Naija is a big headache.
