Concerned Imo people have expressed worry over the constant encroachment into Government lands and the destruction of the state developmental plan by land grabbers and fraudsters.<\/p>\n
\n
Reports suggest, Railwayline running from Aba, Owerri\u00a0 to Onitsha to be among the development plans that were taken forcefully\u00a0 by the land grabbers through encroachment and illegal acquisition of land.<\/p>\n
\n
It was also reported that because of this issue of land grabbing and distruction of the master plan , federal government establishments\u00a0 in Owerri may be forced to move out to elsewhere including the proposed construction of railwayline.<\/p>\n
\n
Some top officials of Imo state housing co-operation and government appointees of various establishments\u00a0 were recently removed because of alleged fraudulent activities , but right now as we gathered , the worst have started happening both at the high and low places of the civil service.<\/p>\n
\n
Further information revealed that when imo state plan was designed,\u00a0 provision for railway terminal from Aba , Owerri to onitsha was made the terminal from Owerri is at industrial layout customarily owned by umuguma and irete people . Recently that particular area was said to have been parcilated by some agents suspected to be working with Imo\u00a0 housing corporation.<\/p>\n
\n
The land in question have been brushed , parcilated , designed and allocated to people, the allocations are said to be done by Imo housing cooperation.<\/p>\n
\n
This particular action according to many is against the\u00a0 Presidency directive\u00a0 adding that,\u00a0 the railway line construction should commence soonest so that the southeast should not be crying about marginalisation.<\/p>\n
\n
Our source revealed that other states in the south east have kept their corridors open\u00a0 for the construction of the rail line.<\/p>\n
\n
Concerned Imolites have advised the governor of Imo state Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodinma to consider it necessary as a matter of urgency to stop the activities of land grabbers and make sure that the construction of our railway line is not abandoned , because of fraudulent activities\u00a0 and encroachment.<\/p>\n
Imolites are also demanding that the governor should set up a panel that will prob the activities of the housing corporation and sister establishments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
