Five Qualities of Owerri, Imo State

Owerri, the capital of  Imo State is a city that is full of life. Today, several stunning monuments are seen on almost every bus-stop in the city. The city is green and well planned. You would feel the vibe of the city anywhere you go to. However, there are many unassuming points of interest which you would definitely come to notice if you are keen enough. We have revealed some of those things that you would notice when you come to Owerri.

Masked Tout Activities

You may not see these bad boys often in Owerri except in motor parks. The touts are invisible yet very active when it comes to nefarious activities. The presence of the cult groups in some of the tertiary institution is another reason to be careful. You may not readily see them around but they can turn up swiftly when they do. Tout activities are not threatening in the city but it is there for you to see.

Home of Hustlers

Owerri is home to a lot of hustlers. The cost of goods and services isn’t necessarily as affordable as in the neighbouring town, Aba. This makes a lot of residents here learn to be frugal with their earnings. If you can work hard in Owerri, you may not have problem making ends meet at the end of the day.  The people are enlightened and they are able to adopt fast to every economic condition that they find themselves.

Night Owls’ Second Home

Like Lagos, Port Harcourt and other cities with vibrant night activities, Owerri has an awesome nightlife. Some parts of the city may appear to be silent during the day but when it comes to the night, you would be stunned by what you would see. People from Owerri’s neighbouring cities are seen trooping here in the night. In the morning especially on Monday morning, you would see a lot of people – who very likely came in over the weekend to have fun –  heading back to their bases from Owerri.

The People’s Lifestyle

Comfort and luxury paints the city of Owerri red. You would not be intimidated by the rich which is the good news because everyone is important here. It is not a city where you would be lost because of communication or relationship with people. The people of Owerri must have abandoned some of the old ibo traditions that may not be pleasant to visitors away for tourism to rule.

Peace and Hospitality

There is no trouble getting to know Owerri better because the people here are peaceful and accommodating. Visitors are warmly welcomed and help is always dished out, making tourism to be amazing in this place. When you visit any of the villages around, the story is the same which is the reason we see a lot of visitors visiting Owerri every now and again.
