      For them to expand Awka Road, lots of houses will have to go and you know in Naija we don't like that. Landlords along that road will keep lobbying against that till we get a no-nonsense governor.

  • @zweeterion
    @zweeterion 5 лет назад +1

    Flo, thank you very much for this video! Onitsha is one city when i compare it's current development to other premier cities of similar age in Nigeria, i tend to weep for Onitsha. Perhaps, Onitsha missed the opportunity of becoming a state capital and that adversely changed the course of development into a truly modern city like Port Harcourt, Kano, Kaduna or Calabar. All the key cities of the 1960s and 70s are now state capitals and decently developed their infrastructure except Onitsha and Aba.
    As a nurse that worked at Onitsha general hospital, I wanted you to go into the General Hospital Onitsha to see if they kept their promise to turn the place into a state specialist hospital.
    It is so disheartening that Onitsha remains the ONLY city of its size in Nigeria (1-2 million inhabitants) without a Federal Medical Center or Teaching hospital to adequately cope with the health needs of the people.
    Gov. Obiano seemed to have noticed the anomaly and decided to convert the present General hospital into a State Specialist hospital. Indeed the Governor started renovating the archaic structures and building modern wards and surgical theaters, modern doctors quarters and even a helipad. Then he suddenly stopped! Like the usual jinx of anything good coming to Onitsha suddenly stops by some magical influence. But, i wonder if upgrading the General hospital Onitsha into a state of the art Specialist hospital was all mere fake campaign promises or he really wanted to improve healthcare delivery within Onitsha by truly building a competent referral Specialist hospital in Onitsha.

    Wow Flo, I did not know you grew up in Onitsha. Well in this 15 minutes clip you took me back memory lane from 1993 through 1996 when I lived in boarding school @ St Charles Special Science School. From the memories of visiting my older brother @ DMGS Onitisha, to confirmations/church services at All saints cathedral. Yes Premier pry Sch was one of the best schools to attend at the time. I remember Inter house sports @ Ado Girls, FGGC Onitsha, New yam festivals @ Obi's Palace, names of the popular streets and places such as Bida Rd, Oguta rd, upper new mkt rd, Ime Ogbe, Inland Town, Okosi rd, Awka rd where my school is, New Nkissi @ G.R.A, St Mary's Cath Church, Famous Savoy Hotel. I see subtle changes and off course the usual busy Akwa Road. Glad to see that Zik's roundabout have been upgraded and also his house converted to museum or so. You were close to Limca Rd in Nkpor as I could recall. I also had family friends who lived in GRA so I ended up staying a few days in GRA before heading back to Lagos or Nnewi when the term is over. I will definitely visit Onitsha when I go to Nigeria. Thank you for sharing this beautiful video! I shared this video on my WhatsApp class old boys group. They loved it.

We grew up in Enugu and lived in Onitsha after the state creation in the 90s so Onitsha is a huge part of my formative years.
      Yes, Limca Road is that Old Road I pointed to after Zik's house.

      @@cjcj955 exactly that's why the "tourist" should not be blamed. Anambra alone has so many tourist attractions but the people responsible do not create enough awareness. They don't believe that a state government can make money from tourism, taxes and fines. Meanwhile some western countries are built and run with money from only these three sources.

    Thanks for responding - but nope, no houses built within the town planning guidelines will be taken down. If you look closely, you will notice encroachments - extra stores, extra displays, parking spots and protective guard rails and walls. They are all on land adjoining the road: I'll take them all down, build a sidewalk and expand the road. And absolutely force everyone to display their wares inside their shops, not on the streets. It may seem harsh, but what we have now ruins the actual value of real estate in the entire town. And of course, its beauty. I lived in Onitsha for a few months in 1970 as a kid - it was a well-planned town, but infrastructure development has not kept pace with everything else. And that hideous roundabout that Obiano did - it hurts my eyes. And the two gas stations at Savoy and across from Inosi Onira - what in the the world? Anyway, I love that you are keeping us all in touch with home. Take care!

      Those that will lobby are the ones in the wrong. Till we get a no-nonsense governor that will insist on following the master plan, that's how it will be. And remember, this is Inland Town we are talking about. Ndi nwe obodo! 😂 Most career politicians will not want to step on the wrong toes.
      If you dig deep you may find that talks on that already exist. I was annoyed with that roundabout. It can only fit in there if the roads were wider. This is why I believe that expanding Awka Road and Upper New Market has at least been discussed and money possibly allocated for it but construction was stalled by lobbyists. And since they must chop the money for it, they built a massive roundabout to enable them "spend" the allocation.

      @@FloChinyere Corruption is our undoing - but it has to end at some point. You're probably right about the roundabout - it took away from the already congested road. Yet, the government went ahead and dumped money on it.

    places you missed to mention on Awka road - from ABS junction

    iii. ADO Girls Sec. Schl right there on Awka road at Okosi road junction.
    iv. Former Social Centre (now a totally transformed very good Girls' Secondary school, and New Onitsha Stadium inside before/behind Obi of Onitsha's Palace.
    V. Ezechima Primary school- named after Obi Ezechima (one of the ancient days Obi of Onitsha), just before The Two St. Charles (Special Science) College(s) inside before/behind St. Mary's Cath. Church.
    BIG BITE is the name of Happy Bite's Special bread. I was attacked, robbed & dispossessed of my 3 months old Honda CRV under gun point right infront of Inosi Onira - residence and final resting place of The Rt. HNRBL Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe - Owelle Onitsha. Beside Dr. Namdi Azikiwe's residence is All Hallows Seminary - on Old road also leading to Nkpor - but you took left and got on the Enugu-Onitsha express way, then ended your video. Really nice video 👍👍👍
