Governor of Imo State, Owelle Rochas Okorocha said his administration
would make the town of Okigwe a mega-city through the development of
essential social and economic infrastructure in the area. He said this while addressing a crowd at the Okigwe Main Motor Park as
part of this year’s prayer summit for Okigwe zone.

five-star hotel and other essential facilities.

of their structures to make way for construction works adding that
they would all be compensated accordingly.

into all their basic needs in the zone and ensure their provisions.

infrastructures. He also said the spiritual growth of the people is
also a necessary ingredient towards the building of a just and human
society.
