MY JOURNEY TO IMO STATE


It started on the 23rd, of April that I journeyed to Awo Oma-mma situated in Imo state Nigerian.
The journey was by road and anyone that uses road transport for movement will know that, it is not fun because of the attitude of the driver, conductor and passengers as well as road safety officers who stood at every check points to collect money and also guilding the road against criminal activities.

The road is always buzzing with activities at all times with social workers on the road looking for patronizers.

THE WEALTH I DISCOVERED IN IMO STATE


Imo state has an abundance of fruits like mangoes, banana, peas, cashews, plantain, etc. compared to Port Harcourt where I stay. The fruit they sell in Imo state is so fresh and nourishing to the body.

I also saw the river called Njaba River and its flowing water.
