 Flood in Owerri

This picture was sent to me on whatsapp today and when I traveled to Owerri last year, there were so many abandoned road projects in fact the World Bank Estate roads which has the only manageable road to my estate, were in terrible shape.
Online, there has been pictures of what Imo-state government is doing but a lot of people are still complaining of poor roads, inability to pay the complete salary of workers. The rate of complain is so much that I am wondering if the people of Imo-state cannot come under one umbrella and decide on what to do next. They voted in the present governor and if he is not doing well, he should be ask to leave.
When a community like Imo-state can not stand as one to decide what they want, how possible can it be to decide under Biafra.
 Biafra has shown that there method of independence is by force and dictatorship(you do not force people to stay at home or close their businesses because you are trying to prove a point that benefits you). When the Igbo's decide to talk with one voice, then they are capable of being independent.

That being said of my people, let us talk about our country, 2017 budget was signed in the month of June ,that is six months into 2017; Unfortunately most of the things that require building will have to wait because this is the raining season, again things that concern food productionmay have suffered and farmers may expect low production that means scarcity. The planting season is almost over in fact foodstuff like corn, vegetables etc are being  harvested now. The question is, how is this country going to move forward?
The issue of health is of great concern, On the television yesterday, UN representative is saying that the numbers we claim to have been immunized in a lot of areas are not accurate as compare to their findings. Today we have outbreak of Lassa fever, tomorrow is Cholera. Despite the fact that the immunization against Polio has been going on more than a decade ago, some children are still suffering from it. What is the Ministry of health doing or going to do about it?
Now we come back to our various communities; In my area it takes almost a month for the waste management to remove the waste yet we pay waste bill, even when you complain, the excuse is not more than spoilt vehicle or "no vehicle" available at the moment. Then in the night you can't have a good night rest because rats and cockroaches are feeding fat.
The truth is the government can not see everything, that is why we have representatives and we can make them work if we agree with one voice
It is important to work towards the growth and development of our country, if you agree lend your voice in every area you find yourself, so that those who have ears can hear.
