Okorocha is a better politician than Ihedioha. Ihedioha should concede defeat like his weak boss GEJ.

Not just a better politician, a better leader as well.

Okorocha will be fine.

Why is INEC wasting tax payers money on a supplementary election that is not needed? The total number of people going to participate in this supplementary is less than 79,000, a margin Okorocha is currently winning with. WHy base their supplementary on registered voters when less than 50% of those registered voters had their PVC?

This beats logic: but ROchas should go ahead and humor them. Let them organize election for less than 79,000 people when he is leading by more than that margin: he should even encourage all his supporters to desist from voting; let PDP have all the votes from the supplementary and still lose.

If a gun is fired at Rochas, he wont die abi?



No way Rochas is claiming Imo State, election remains inconclusive and will be held in those areas the result was cancel.



It is not over, not by a long shot


Rochas is not the problem.

I don't think Ihedioha or Iheanacho will do better than him, I think they will actually do worse.

What did Ihedioha achieve in the NA (as deputy speaker) or Iheanacho while in Interior Ministry? These men have no pedigree; I actually prefer Rochas to them!

Please can you mention governor okorocha's achievements? Roundabout I guess. What has this man done for Imo people, rather he inflicted poverty on imo people, got imo state indebted and enriching his family and his in laws. I don't want to keep remembering his sins.

I'm very, very sorry to say this, but I must just pour out my mind irrespective of how tribalistic my comment may look. Igbo people are making century wrong political calculation. Reason: everybody should understand that power must shift back to the south after Buhari Administration and we know that its only southeast region that had never produced President in the country. There comes the person with national appeal that hold the savy, without being tagged tribal lord, okorocha stands tall among others but these people will just hate without rational thinking. I think they should rally round this man now or be shouting of self inflicted marginalization later. They always fall victims of their actions. History beckons. Bashing allowed and welcome. Thanks.

PointB:



The UBE does not cover tertiary education, unlike Rochas 'free eduation.' Can you say he did 'justice' his promised free tertiary education? The policy was not properly thought through, poor articulated, and haphazardly implemented.

I prefer a thinking leader for Imo State, Rochas is not one. I doubt if Iheanacho or Ihedioha are either.

Iheanocho of course has his military background, while Ihedioha, just like Rochas, is more or less a career politician. All poor choices.

Someone in the mold of Peter Obi or Akpabio is what Imo State need. I'll even settle for Willie Obiano.

Look like we are stuck with Rochas for another four years! cry cry

If the number of registered voters is 144,000, he leads by 79,000 votes..that's grounds for it being inconclusive

But if the number of PVCs collected is not up to 79,000, that is a victory but so as not to disenfranchise people, they must vote but he still wins

If you read carefully, you will see that Rochas wasn't sure of what he said, he only made an assumption.
Unfortunately, he didn't consider the fact that Imo state had a 96% PVC collection rate!
Anyway he'll still win, but INEC did the right thing.

Rochas didn't do much, even though the state allocation is not much, but I believe he could have done better. And I still think he's a better choice than Ihedioha and Iheanacho!

Rochas membership of APC have served its purpose and any extension is over-staying and unproductive.


Let Buhari carry him along like Amaechi and Ngige and let us see if Buhari will not re contest in 2019 and hand over power to a fellow Northerner in 2023.(guaranteed) if he does not Die in office that is.



We need for our region and the south south to wear a uniform look ahead of 2019.



Political Strategising ahead of time, I use to support Rochas but he has now served his purpose.


Rochas should go already.

I don't know why you guys took what Okorocha said as fact, the tone of his statement showed that he was only making an assumption.
Imo state had a 96% PVC collection rate, I don't think that of the concerned areas will be much lower than the state average!

@phillips70. For a truth Buhari did not win that election. Jonathan just allowed him to come in and disgrace himself so that he can go home with his terror boys permanently. It's obvious that Jega rigged the elections massively in favour of APC what with the skewed PVC distribution, the obviously programmed -to-fail card readers deployed to the SE/SS and the funny figures from Kano, Jigawa, Katsina and Kaduna states occasioned by massive under-aged voting and total abandonment of the use of card readers for accreditation. What Jega did wasn't hidden and I know his conscience if he has one will haunt him till his last day on earth for betraying a man who changed his life for better forever.

PassingShot:
Okorocha's argument is very spot on.

It is the number of PVC's collected that should be considered in arriving at a decision on whether a rerun is required in the affected LG or not.

If PVC's collected is less than the gap between him and Iheodia, there is no point in wasting resources for another election there.

Even by considering the registered voters, you do not expect a 70% turnout on election date and it is also save to say that Okorocha will get at least 50% of the votes in the LG affected since it is his stronghold area.

No how you spin this, APC's Okorocha has won this election.
Okorocha will win, but INEC is right.
The state's average PVC collections is 96% so I don't see the PVC collection rate of those areas being lower than 80%. The issue of turn up is just mere guess work, they cannot use that to make a decision.
