@NoNonsensezone, sharing the video, remarked, “Igbos are joyously celebrating a water fountain that just got built in Abia state. Thousands of Igbos flock to the new tourist center to take pictures and videos.”
This development prompted a range of opinions. @ibi1shani criticized the celebration, questioning the priorities of those applauding a water fountain. @lesloci expressed disappointment, citing past leadership and the need for more substantial projects, while @CurtisAbbi credited Otti as a savior amid the state’s previous 24 years of governance.
@victoriainyama raised concerns about the fountain’s value to sustenance, and @jnrpope suggested that the display might stem from years of mental enslavement. @Yeshir2001 and @I.tobiloba expressed surprise at celebrating what they perceive as an ordinary water fountain, with the latter emphasizing the impact of past governance.
@olotudemola showed empathy, attributing the enthusiastic response to the perceived impoverishment and urging leaders to address the needs of the people.
