I’m from Mgbidi in imeoha based in Swaziland. I”m very sad about the things happening there.
Me too…I am from imeoha
I’m from Mgbidi town, Okuwdor precisely. I’m proud of my town, the gateway to IMO state. I’m happy about this mega international market coming to my own town, that is a big start in development for us as indigents.
