The people of Isiala Oparanadim in EKWERAZU AHIAZU MBAISE LGA of Imo state, begs government at all levels for provision of social amenities. 

The Caretaker Committee Chairman of Isiala Oparanadim Autonomous community, Mr Cyriacus NWAGWU  made this known while addressing the news men in his Community.

He expressed shock on how government has neglected the community  leaving the people to their fate. 

He narrated the level of dilapidation of public  infrastructure mainly at Op.Nweafor Community Primary School, Op.nweafor Health Centre and  Oparanadim Comprehensive Secondary School which is the only secondary school in the whole of Oparanadim that made up of three autonomous communities (Usual Oparanadim, Eziama and Umumbiri).

Mr CY said the level of dilapidation at the secondary school mainly the examination hall will prevent the students who registered for SSCE to write the exam. 

According to him, the hardship of accessing near by school to write the exam due to poor road network in the community will double. 

"Its a pity that Isiala Oparanadim Autonomous community is the  first son of  EKWERAZU and the traditional head of Oparanadim but cannot boast of any tangible government presence"

He further stressed that during election politicians from different political parties come to campaign with different promises but after election no one will see them again.

"We are neglected in this community, our community is the only community in Oparanadim that does not have any motorable road, our health centre which is the only hospital in this Community is in total collapse, the road connecting us to Ihitte-ubi  part of Oparanadim has been cut off by  erosion, the erosion has claimed the road and areas surrounding Duruowerre River in the community and the place is turning into den of criminals, our transformer has been constantly vandalised by hoodlums" 

He beckoned on Imo state government to come to their rescue. He said the government should please come renovate the secondary school hall to enable the students write their exams instead of relocating them to any near by school.

Mr Nwagwu expressed dismay at the level in which government presence is not extended to Isiala Oparanadim. 

He called on well meaning Imolites, lovers of education, Old students of Oparanadim Comprehensive Secondary School to assist to ensure the school does not turn to poutry farm.
