Dr_OBD: We know he's a big boy. But you are not big enough until u start impacting the lives of others.

geeez: But why does this guy keep splashing these pictures all over the place?

It's amazing that these pictures of his affluent lifestyle didn't exist before he became governor

Is he the only man with a pool in his house?

Is he as rich as Dangote, Adenuga and. Otedola who rarely throw around these kind of pictures?

ilugunboy: Ive never seen Abians condemn the way this man r.aped the state during his 8 years of locust as Abia governor.

He was taking turn with his mother and younger brothers to r.ape the state.

drnoel:
Well said, thats what people 4get. Listen to what Tony Emelulu said "There is a time in a man´s life when he not just looks for what or how he earns money but also looks for what legacies he would leave behind after he is gone". So I completely agree you when you say that one is only big when one starts impacting the lives of others.

ketoprofen: @ Sloan, does that long epistle justify what tinubu is doing SW IGR?
Is thar y ur states are backward?

if u want to hug a transformer because orji uzor is swimming in his house, enjoy!

ketoprofen:

Abia ppl in this forum have always condemned their leaders.
But u and cohorts will not ask tinubu what he is doing with SW IGR.
Only one man tinubu is enjoying the largesse while the rest of u turned to agberos and beggars.
Poverty everywhere .
Abia ppl on the hand, get industrious, take their own fates in their hands; Even as many of the Aba roads are in poor condition, their industrialists/ entrepreneurs are still helping themselves.
.
So don't come here and talk abt the Abians again. Ur ppl are more hopeless

ilugunboy:

I know a pathetic scum like you as usual will always spring up to his defence.

Orji Uzor is one of those reasons that people still molest you by telling you to go back to your villages....but they know you can't.

Even in the midst of Boko killings...rather than go to the East...most still find their way west ward.

I know Abia....and not just Aba with the palms of my hand...it's a shytee-hole. One town state (a very horrible stinking town of Aba)....after several years of creation, the state capital is still a One-Main road glorified village.

phantom: the igbos are no where near the sea.theres no seaport.they just got an international airport.survived a three year war that nearly wiped them out.the only viable infrastructure they share with rest of the country is in the west YET they manage to make something of their lives.i repeat MINUS LAGOS, CAN YOU REALLY COMPARE THE WEST TO THE EAST? I cant.one would swear the west was were the war was fought.truth be told,i cant even compare my village to its counterpart in the west.;

zomby: This man is a great example of a jobless bushman.
You need nothing but your actions to prove that you're a big boy.

For the past 8 years this man hasn't done anything constructive to positively impact the development of this country. And this is simply because majority of his wealth was accumulated when he was the governor of Abia State.
I guess, this is a sign that he is mentally bored and has nothing better to do, but take pictures to show Nigerians that he is still relevant.

Could someone please tell this joker that we are not impressed until he starts rubbing shoulders with people like Dangote, Mike Adenuga and other real big boys, who clearly understand what needs to be done to get this country back on track...

ilugunboy:

Simple...you can't compare...because there is just no reason to do so.

In the SW...the old part of the towns and the sparkling brand new areas live side by side....just like in most northern towns of Nigeria.

It's only the East that have no historical infrastructures that predates the 1920's that they could point to....and it was not that they were leveled by war, it is simply that Ibos started the art of building houses after the civil war. Prior then...the best were thatched roof mud houses...while most live in the bushes and forest.

phantom: beautiful.please look for an objective observer to go to both regions and compare.i have lived in ibadan for a while.compare it to enugu in standard of living, city aesthetics.my brother enugu is far better abeg.ibadan is just a far bigger city.

phantom: for the record, i am not giving excuses for corruption.my arguement was based on an earlier post.kalu is a thief and he is NOT A ROLE MODEL TO MANY IGBOS.

zomby: @ Phantom
If Orji is your man and inspiration, may God bless you.
But from what I know and have seen, Orji is not even close. He is a typical okrika man who has no taste, no action and no vision.

Do you even believe that this man is still trying to get back into politics? For what? To steal more money?
Real big boys don't need to be a governor to make money or to feel relevant.
Again, Orji Kalu will not be respected until he has what it takes to rub shoulders with real Nigerian big boys like Mike Adenuga, Dangote and many others.

Sorry.

Sloan:

Are you still surprised? Like I have theorized before on this issue, Ibos are like a student who feels he has something to prove and has to prove himself in a class of students of far higher intelligence and achievement. As a student who attended one of the best schools for education in Nigeria (OAU Ile-Ife, for example) and outside, I can tell you for sure that almost all the students in my class were always far above average intellectual ability. The students who have higher than average CGPA, not even 3.5 / 5.0, but something on the order of 3.8 and above are usually the ones who do not answer any questions in class except in a discussion where the instructor is eliciting response on previous class assignments or the current one, or ranging issues about the subject matter. The reason why they behave this way is obvious most of the time, a lot of them could be very modest, they feel they have nothing to prove by showing that they know more because their CGPAs tell the whole story, you will hardly see these students discuss the answers after an exam or test, you would hardly hear them tell you their CGPA or they are in first class or in the coveted > 4.00 CGPA region, etc. But guess what? The below averagers, the back benchers who boast the most are the ones who are the "over efficiency", trying to show that he knows something about the subject matter and injecting himself into every conversation he is not being explicitly requested to join.

The same for my secondary school where almost all the students leave Nigeria for the US, UK, etc even before the JAMB results are released and the ones left in Nigeria are heading straight to OAU, UI, UNILAG, etc. These are students who are so bright, you'd question why you are not getting the school prize for a subject after scoring 90%, why because some insanely brilliant students are still scoring 99%, 98% in Further Maths and Physics, your coveted A2, A3 is nowhere to match with students who have refused to score anything else but all A1s! Now, tell me do you ever see those students in your face at every time? NEVER! Except, you put them on the spot and ask them questions, then they will tell you! It was in primary school pupils get applauded by the entire class for answering some questions correctly, after that it is your CGPA that must tell you story.

[b]Now, to drive the point home: Ibos feel and know they are not up to par with the major tribes in Nigeria so they feel they must continually announce their presence as loud as possible all the time. Not only are their states economically backward to some of the states in the SS and the enigmatic West, but politically (power), they are inferior after being bested by the Westerners and Northerners for a long time! The 1967 - 1970 war dealt a heavy blow on the psyche of the ibos, resulting in a calamitous, colossal loss of 3 M in only 2 years 6 months and 9 days, a disastrous outing where the entire biafran army was forced to experience virtually all the offensive military tactics in the book from pincer movements, to flanking, pin downs, artillery barrage, punch through, sickle movements, skirmish, charge, ambush, marching fire, aerial bombardment, blockade, the list goes on endlessly! To make matters worst, they were enveloped and squeezed at the throats as the entire areas they thought they could steal was taken back with such speed and precision, it will make any army cringe with shame! I am saying these so you can know a bit more about why people like Orji Kalu try to satiate their emptily bloated ego by posting pictures from Dubai and swimming pools! I can not imagine what will make Dangote to show you a picture of his swimming pool except Ovation goes to beg him for interview! The same goes for Otedola and Adenuga, people who just refuse to even make a comment about anything except you go and ask them to please say something! In fact, you will have to ask very politely because it seems they care more about what they have to accomplish for themselves, business and family to be involved in any public show like these shameful one. So, I hope you have a perspective on why ibos keep making comments like "ibos are doing well", "we developed Lagos", "we are 90% of the population of Kano", etc.
