PDP Neglected South-east For 16 Years, Says Okorocha by haconjy(m): 5:30am On Apr 22, 2016
He said the party lacked the potential to win the 2019 presidential election, adding that the party was just waking up from its slumber.
“Why is the PDP now considering the South-East for the vice-presidency after 16 years? Are they just waking up from their slumber?,” Okorocha asked.
The governor, who spoke through his Chief Press Secretary, Sam Onwuemeodo, on Monday, said it was unfortunate that the South-East was never remembered by the PDP during the party’s 16 years in power.
He said, “For the 16 years the PDP was in power, it never considered the South-East as being fit for the position of the vice-president. The party never had any reason to remember the South-East as a major power bloc.
“It never considered the South-East as being capable of holding any sensitive position in the country. They are just waking up from their slumber after being out of power.
“The PDP never allowed the South-East to have the president, the vice-president, the senate president, the speaker of House of Representatives, and so on. The South-East totally lost out in the PDP government. Even in terms of projects, the South-East had a very rough experience in the PDP government.
“All the federal roads in the zone were all deathtraps until the party was voted out of power. The Second Niger Bridge became an endless pit for the PDP. Some oil wells belonging to some states in the zone were taken away and given to other states outside the zone. It was a hopeless situation for the zone.”
Okorocha, who said the vice-presidential ticket was a bait by the opposition party to deceived the people of the region, added that the people of the region could see beyond the bait.
He said, “Now, they have started to dangle the VP carrot before the zone because they desperately want power again. And they also know that what the zone could not get from the PDP government, it could now get from the Muhammadu Buhari-led All Progressives Congress government.
“The fact is that the South-East would get its due from the APC administration because the APC believes in fair play, justice and equity. The PDP toyed with the fate of the South-East which the APC has not done. And the good signs are everywhere. The South-East will be better under the APC government.”
He said the major concern of the Buhari administration was to develop the South-East, stressing that the Federal Government would not neglect the region as the PDP did.
“Our interest is to develop the South-East. The APC administration will do that for the zone. Anything due to the zone will be given to it because the level of greed in the PDP cannot be found in APC. The APC won’t wait until it is out of power before remembering the South-East or any other zone. That cannot be our portion.”

Okorocha, these people listed above, are they from Kanuri, Nupe or Igbo? Are they from South East or North East? Are they from PDP or Kowa Party? Lets continue.

* Anyim Pius Anyim 2011-2015

CHIEF OF ARM STAFF
* Azubuike Ihejirika 2010-2014

INEC CHAIRMAN
* Maurice Iwu 2005-2010

Okorocha are these second group of individuals Igbo or Jukun? which ruling party appointed them to the offices they held; PDP or CPC? Show me how PDP marginalised them for 16 years. Have you seen why you are called Okoroawusa. You dont know anything about your people, therefore you are not an authority to speak for the South East cos you dont know that zone. I dont even know whether you know much about Nigeria. Kindly park well for Owerri there and stop spewing trash. If you are idle, find one plot and start farming.


He who knows not and knows not that he knows not is a fool, shun him. No be me talk am. They talk am before I was born sef...

It is quit inhuman the way the handle south east all this while. that nothing give joy to the south easterners like honouring their own with big post is the major problem now.so they choose to always deceive them with post while developing other part of the country. Due to individualistic nature of the south easterners they never struggle to get anything from the center, if not agitating for Biafra, it will be fighting for political post when you hardly see any Igbo man attracting any meaningful development to his place despite the office occupied. And as usual the south eastern youth will be celebrating this their illustouse if not lost son who will be busy acquiring choice property here and they till the regime is over.may God help shaa!
