 A Prosperous and Progressive Idemili North and South is Possible With Hon. Uche Okonkwo. On and on, we keep voting for politicians who are after their gain. Men who do not care if there is adequate water supply or not, if our health centers are adequately and  totally equipped with necessary facilities needed for faster and better treatment. What about our children? Even if their school fees is affordable, no one wants to know if it's affordable to all.
