Flooding in Owerri as road construction slows

On 9th April, Owerri the Capital of Imo State witness a heavy down pour of rain, with the ongoing  Urbanizing and widening of major roads projects going on in the state. 

There was heavy flood as part of the major roads are still under construction, while the major cause of the flooding was that most of the roads lack drainage channels while the existing ones has been blocked through demolition.

We urge the Government of Imo State to speed up the project so as to facilitate the movement and safety of Imolites.
