Owerri man is only after the economy of Owerri. They made Imo state become Owerri.
He will rather resort to build underground metro to all communities in Owerri side, or start to build a second decking of Owerri METROPOLITAN city, ,than build a one kilometer road outside Owerri

Bosman17:
You guys are intentionally looking away from Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s sins against Nigeria. He’ll pay guys, trust me he must pay. No amount of pity party or sentiments you whip up.. his crime is felony against a sovereign nation and life imprisonment is the penalty! We need to start looking at Nigeria as our own collectively and not be bottled to where we come from!

Sadist or unrepentant parasite.
Nnamdi Kalu did not kill anyone. Asking for a new country from a mother country is no felony, not even a misdemeanor. The courts in Nigeria could not even convict Nnamdi Kalu of any offences. Because of your lousy dependence on cheap cash from crude oil in the Niger delta, parasites like you condemn Kalu in your kitchens but allow secessionists from the southwest and northern Nigeria to walk free.

Due to irreconcilable differences, I guess the best alternative is the splitting of Abia State.. [i]Just as the Orlu people are advocating for same in Imo, [/i]Abia north should lend their voice.
Abia seems like an almost failed project.
Self determination is the only way out.
This will enable Abia north and their friends to develop their zone and communities while Ngwa do same.
This gonna reduce the blame game.

A state for Orlu zone and the Orlu people merged to Anambra south should have been created when Ebonyi State was created. But Abacha hijacked it for a 7th state in the northwest area.
Owerri people knew right from tete that the state would be created; that's why Owerri refused to concede even one federal and state government institutions to Orlu.

Not only her, majority of them are ing those monsters. Do you think they don't know them? What is the size of the entire South East that they cannot comb within a month and bring out those rag tag boys. They know what they're doing.

It's your ancestral home that has become desolate and preparing to be extinct.

You criminals come to Orlu to cause insecurity because of politics, then you call IPOB. What will IPOB benefit from putting bomb in crowded market places in Orlu? Is politics making you people reason from your buttocks?

Imo International Market is the official name of this market in Orlu, it's not Orlu International Market.
It's the same people who have been bombing out government facilities in Orlu since 2020 who are changing the name of this market to Orlu International Market
These people no de take eye see any government facilities in Imo state outside the zone of the state capital. They went totally crazy since 2020 with the pronouncement of Hope Uzodinma as gov of Imo state.

AntiZikist:



Orlu, Orsu and Ihalia have been overrun by criminals and prison escapees .

In Orlu , the criminals are taxing people as much as #200k per month not to loot and burn down their homes.

Many have fled their homes to major cities both in the SE and beyond.

Young girls and women are routinely kidnapped and gang raped in the camps of these criminals . This has led to many homes sending their young girls away.

An Hobbesian state of existence has been brought onto the land were these criminals go about torturing and butchering anyone they suspect as an informant .

In Orlu, entire community roads and perimeter has been mined with IEDs by the terrorists. Many of the people have been killed or maimed for life by the exploding IEDs .

How will this get you your Biafra ?

Where is the Orlu where you are doing all these evil things? It's not the Orlu in Imo state.

If you have Imo state's Orlu in mind, thunder and lightning shall strike you, strike all your family, strike your village.
All that dwell in your mind is EVIL.

Bunch of corrupt criminals slamming charges against fellow criminals.

Bunch of nonentities.

Politician steals N80 billion. He uses N3 billion to settle his prosecutors. He is bailed out. Case gradually closes. Nigeria style.
Most dysfunctional country in the world, Nigeria, is nearing its final bus stop.

Game of hide and see.
In a saner country, Yahaya Bello would have been nearing one year in prison because his court trial wouldn't last two weeks, as there are ample evidences to swiftly prosecute him. But this is Nigeria.

But come o. What does President Tinubu benefit from continued detention of Nnamdi Kalu?
Tinubu campaigned for more than 15 years since 1996 for political restructuring of Nigeria, and even went on exile at one point.
Nnamdi Kalu wanted dissolution of Nigeria via referendum since a section of Nigeria has refused political restructuring of Nigeria.



It's that refuznik section of Nigeria that sent soldiers who started in Aba church to kill Kalu's IPOB followers with no violence as their motto, and progressively led to conflicts between IPOB and Nigeria armed forces; then led to naming IPOB a terrorist organisation.
Unraveling the intricacies of this case must lead a considerate president to free Kalu with conditions he doesn't confront government.

afube:



You miss the point Asari's boys have been fighting Ekpa for long and I believe Asari's boys were eventually defeated in orlu!

But why fight in Orlu since five years?
It's not Asari versus Ekpa boys fight. It's internal politics of Imo state fight.
Once Uzodinma became gov from the Supreme court, a group in Imo got angry.
The group sees Orlu as monopolising Imo leadership. The group took to destruction of govt establishments in Orlu and confronting police and eventually soldiers drafted to Orlu.
.

Why can't soldiers take over Zamfara, Borno, Yobe and Sokoto where Islamic terrorists are having a field day? Matters of crude oyel. Nigeria has harnessed proceeds from crude oil for more than 60 years, yet, see the hunger in Nigeria. But some foolish people still believe that proceeds from crude oil are most important for Nigeria.

Why did Abati place Yoruba in his comment? There are Yorubas who can manage the economy. Before the election, good Yorubas and other far-sighted Nigerians knew that Tinubu is not fit for the office he was seeking to occupy. But persons like Abati papered over every deficiency of Tinubu. Why is Abati now crying foul?

But Reuben Abati nearly staked everything he could possibly have in of Bola Tinubu during the presidential campaigns and after the general election. Or has Abati become hungry now?

Good job, Nigeria Police. Please find the gang that burnt three heavy road construction equipment at Nkwoito in Orlu recently. This gang is most likely to be the culprits. Road construction equipment at work in Owerri has never got burnt.
The criminals are not agitating for Biafra.

Muslim-Muslim ticket in a country nearly equally divided between Muslims and Christians is an affront to peace and unity in the country. Except Buhari, no other leader did it, Buhari prepared the Muslim-Muslim ticket for Tinubu.

davies:
Ajuri resigned cos he has seen the fake propaganda he's been pushing isn't gonna stop..
He decided to stay off cos the blood of the innocent killed on a daily basis in the country keep piling up.

That's how men of honour do.

I pray his family receive healing.

Make e no be cancer sha.

That monster has destroyed many happy homes.

Continue to paper bad situation.
Things have gone so bad with this istration such that normal persons would want to distance from the istration.

Buhari and Tinubu's APC legacy in NIgeria.

Criminals and state actors have deformed life and living in the southeast zone.
As noted by author, Orlu, the once bubbling city has been stunted, never to recover again. But there is every indicator that many officials of IMSG are happy over what Orlu is suffering.

Let's take a break. Who is this stark illiterate Akpakomezia that Adams Oshiomwole wants to impose on Edo state as next governor? I wept listening to the dumbo in campaign at Auchi. Puaaaaah!!! I am not from Edo state.
Oya farmer, you are doing well

EasternActivist:
Why is this government criminalizing protest.

For mow, the head of the government thinks he has won. He never see something. So far, his saviour is that Nigeria is a country of multi ethnic and multi-religious groups with different value systems, hence it's hard for anti government protests to stick.

Good job. When is Nigeria Immigration building its training school at Umuowa Orlu in Imo state? Immigration training school has been on state government property in Orlu for about 30 years.

If you had common sense, you would know that every Imolite comes here to follow the progress taking place in Imo State, seeing the entire state from a broad perspective, understanding that we are one people and not complaining about things they cannot change from this platform.

Nobody is your enemy. Politicians from Orlu zone holding the governorship position for years without fixing your zone are your biggest enemies.

Owerri has become a behemoth for city.
Allow other towns in Imo state breathe fresh air.
Enugu people gave a blanket cheque to former gov Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi to modernise Nsukka. Ugwuanyi did that.

In Imo state, people of Owen zone still drag practically every government establishment that induces development for location in Owerri zone. Too bad, too primitive.

The photos of Owerri youths drinking on top of flooded and worn-out Nekede-Ihiagwa road were posted on this thread or on Nl after Hope Uzodinma became Imo gov.
The same period, they also posted here photos of Owerri youths conducting marriage ceremony under the flooded Egbeada-Ohi-Orogwe road.
Your sort either posted the photos or you liked the photos. All were blackmail on gov Hope Uzodinma then. Shortly after, the roads were fixed.
But when some of you read about mention of Orlu here, you go ballistic and insult the poster, tell the poster that he should go to govt house Owerri to complain, not here.
You claim we are one in Imo state. Lies. The sad reality is that Owerri is more one with Ikwerre than to any other group in Imo state, and that explains why people of Owen zone drag every government establishment for Imo state for location in Owerri district.

SmartPolician:


While I don't owe you any explanation, I have to set the record straight here. I work online 24/7 and come on Nairaland to relax.

You are too dull to understand that the world is no longer in the 18th century. That's why you spend every second online causing nuisance instead of taking your frustrations to your brothers in Imo government house.

Those of you that laid siege on Orlu since 2020, or enjoyed it, Karma will punish you people. You tell yourselves that Orlu seized governorship post of Imo state, therefore Orlu must be hated and destroyed. By the time we take it to your doorsteps, hmmm......
Frustrations? Below are the principal urban roads of Orlu undergoing reconstruction by IMSG; after this, reconstruction of Orlu's inner city roads follow; cry me a river.

Reno is head and shoulder above Obi in everything "intellectual". He's far more vast and a bigger reader than Obi

Reno should know that Obi wouldnt have known these things as Obi is so myopic that he doesnt even make thorough findings before posting

So, Obi didnt say anything about Tobi Amusan but did say few things about Favour Ofili.

Man is a tribalist. I'm sure he didnt praise that Yemisi Ogunleye that won gold for too

Having a tribal leader is self-destruction. Obi is only fit for jung**

Tribalism from Buhari and Tinubu has ruined Nigeria beyond redemption.
Apart from the two men, Nigeria is rooted on tribalism. Every politician protects his ethnic group first before others, Explains why Tinubu has mostly his Yoruba in his presidency, and Buhari had mostly his Fulani in his government.

Stop replying those shameless and seneless people; it's not worth it.

You are unemployed, and doing unpaid job 24/7 on Nl, you comment on nearly every thread on Nl from dawn to dusk.
Thread is on pics from Imo state, not pics from State capital alone. Develop more sense.

Obi1kenobi:


Again, this is just a nonsense talking point. I don't know what you mean by "Owerri zone fought". Fought how? It's not that easy (and a waste of resources) to relocate an entire university. Nothing stopped all these Orlu zone governors from building universities in Orlu, since many Orlu village [/b]men with no imagination think that only universities bring urban development - even though Onitsha does not have one single university or tertiary institution of any kind (technical colleges, nursing colleges, teaching institutes etc) and is still by far the most populated and urbanized area of Anambra.

You people's Owerri envy no go kill you sha. I've said it many times in this thread that I have heard many groups of people crying marginalization in Nigeria (usually because they are forgotten, abandoned minorities in their state) but Orlu people are the first and only existing people in Nigeria that I've heard crying marginalization despite ruling the state for over 20 out of the last 25 years in Imo state (the Owerri zone ruling for less than [b]ONE year), and having big majorities in the Imo House of Assembly. Una no get shame at all, sha and you don't know how silly you sound to the rest of us.

You wrote "Orlu Village people." For Orlu to remain village forever is the true wish of people of Owerri zone. No blame you sha. Blame govs from Orlu zone who are building state capital for Owerri; Owerri whose people know they are more related to Ikwerre in Rivers state, than to any other group in Imo state.
FYI, former gov Evan Enwerem from Owerri was number one gov responsible for underdevelopment of Orlu. Enwerem refused to continue with contract of Orlu urban roads and drainage, he refused to implement the regional water supply project of Orlu. He inherited the two projects from preceding military gov. Population influx to Owerri due to all govt institutions kept in Owerri tie the hands of govs from Orlu zone to building more roads and urban infrastructures of Owerri. Now gov Hope Uzodinma is taking on some major roads in Orlu.

Obi1kenobi:


Why do you Orlu people love parroting the emboldened dumb talking point? The Onitsha metro area in Anambra which has continued to expand has next to no government institutions. Cities don't develop just because you site a few universities in them.

Dumb talk?
Owerri zone fought Udenwa over relocation of IMSU from Owerri.
Owerri zone fought Ohakim over talk that IMSU would be relocated outside Owerri.
Owerri zone fought Okorocha standstill over talk that IMSU would be taken from Owerri to Ideato.
Don't pretend you don't know that it's all the government institutions in Owerri with students and staff population nearing 300,000, that make Owerri develop ahead of rest of Imo state.
Cities develop because of just one public university in them. But Owerri zone clutches tight to more than 4 public universities, and does waka to rest of Imo state.

Reformation is the essence of imprisonment. That is why prisoners are often released even before the term expired.

What is president Tinubu benefitting from holding Mazi Nnamdi Kalu prisoner?
Why not release Kalu to attenuate the rising insecurity in a part of Tinubu's Nigeria?

Why not? She is copying the governors and the president.
What a child learned from childhood never leaves when the child becomes an adult. That is why some people believe that to get Nigeria in the right direction, a whole population of Nigeria needs to be removed and replaced with newly born kids.
