The Imo State Governor, Senator Hope Uzodinma, has received the report of the Judicial Commission of Inquiry on Lands and Related Matters with a promise to study the outcomes and take the appropriate actions where necessary.
Hon. Justice Florence Duruoha-Igwe (Rtd.), who is the Chairman of the Panel, informed the Governor that she and her members ascertained the extent of distortion to the Owerri Master Plan. “The visual evidence shows that the distortion of Owerri Master Plan was colossal and mind-boggling. It requires a man/government with lion’s heart to restore same, bearing in mind that you cannot make an omelette without breaking an egg,” Justice Duruoha-Igwe said. She added that the Commission’s recommendation had only one motivating factor: “to completely restore Owerri Master Plan and the lost glory of our beautiful city.” She added that they were mindful of the fact that history and people of Imo State will judge them harshly if they fail in the onerous task of doing it right.
A total of 1,532 petitions/memoranda were received from Imo State and the Diaspora.
The Governor, while receiving the report, assured the members that the Government will critically study it with a view to doing the needful in the interest of Imo people.
