Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State has said he was among Nigerians praying that the country’s oil wells dry up, so that Nigerians could have rest.

He made this statement while having an interactive session with Imo State members of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) at the council secretariat, on Port-Harcourt Road, Owerri, Imo State.

According to him, this would drastically reduce problems being encountered by the Federal Government and militants, particularly with the avengers that had continued to blow up oil pipelines in the Niger Delta region.

Chief Okorocha pointed out that this would assist the country greatly in the diversification of her economy to other mineral resources, mostly solid mineral and agriculture.

According to him, the quick rush of each tier of government sharing the monthly federal allocation would be drastically reduced, because there would be nothing left to share.

He warned the people of the state not to annoy him, so that he would continue to give them the free education already introduced by his administration when he assumed office as governor in 2011.

Thank GOD Edo state is an oil producing state....

Amen. A very big amen.

Not only that. May all the stolen funds of Governors and other politicians in foreign/overseas accounts run dry. May they be frozen. And may the stolen funds in Nigeria be frozen. AMEN!!! May the last kobo of stolen funds never allow you all have peace. Amen.

Let it run dry. That way hopefully all the LAZY Governors and politician will not find politics appealing with free oil money and Federal allocations. Lazy politicians. They will need to work and think hard to generate revenue and create wealth within their states for their citizens.

A very big amen.

Roaches has been the governor of my state for over 5 years. Can someone ask him "how much he has diversified our income away from oil.
