Stories of abandoned constituency projects may forever remain the hallmark of most political office holders who yearly allocate funds meant for grassroots development into their coffers despite their constitutional duty of representing and serving their communities. One of such allocations is the award of millions for the renovation of a town hall in a small village located in Imo state, the Eastern heartland of Nigeria.

According to reports on the Zonal Intervention Projects by the Federal Government for the year 2019 and 2020, N17.5 million and N13 million respectively was allocated for the renovation of Orie Ogwuama civic hall, in Ahiazu- Mbaise, Local Government Area Imo State.

The project, sponsored by Rt. Hon. Raphael Nnanna Igbokwe, the member representing Ezinihitte/Ahiazu Federal Constituency surprisingly has the supervising ministry boldly written on a signpost at the location of the hall as “Presidency” with the Border Community Development Agency BDCA as its consultant.
