Very useless decision

Mad man dead in owerri since two days now.
And Imo State government doesn't want to take his body out of the road.
The man is lying down peacefully dead around Orji road.
In the middle of first and diamond bank. �����

How are "governors" in charge of the indigenous autonomous leaders? In what world does a Governor trump an Eze? Dont people know their human rights? What the hell is this shit?

Read below the press statement released by Sam Onwuemeodo, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Rochas Okorocha.

Governor Rochas Okorocha has banned traditional rulers in the State from speaking English at functions and in conducting affairs at their palaces and directed that they must talk in Igbo at functions and Conduct activities in their palaces in Igbo, adding that they Could employ the services of interpreters if the need arises.

Governor Okorocha gave the directive while handing over letters of recognition and staff of office to Nineteen (19) newly recognized traditional rulers in the State, adding that Igbo language must not be allowed to die as been predicted in some quarters.

The governor also told the traditional rulers in the State to be agents of peace, progress, and prosperity in their respective domain instead of being tools of disunity and destabilization, warning that any traditional ruler who could not show genuine leadership in his autonomous Community stands the risk of having his Certificate of Recognition and Staff of Office withdrawn.

His words “Today, history is made that light has come and darkness would not comprehend at all. The truth has surfaced and the right people have finally become the Custodian of the traditional right of their people. You are not permitted to speak English at functions. This will help keep our Culture and Igbo language alive”.

He continued “For many years now, most of you have been looking for a day like this. Some of you were victims of injustice and never believed that this could be possible and most of you have been waiting without knowing your fate. But today, it is a manifest of truth that your people have chosen you, and the government of Imo State has approved”.

He further stated “I took the bold step of reconciling people, took the step to ensure that truth came to be and voided the rancour that has existed in our various communities over ezeship title. This has equally affected the Community Government Council (CGC) negatively because every community requires an Eze to function effectively as the head of the Community Government Council. Today, that responsibility has fallen on you, I urge you not to fail as failure is not an option. I encourage you to help the government in developing the resources of our land as posterity will only remember you for your positive contributions in the development of your community and not in how much wealth you enmassed as an eze”.

He added “Remember that to whom much is given much is expected. This whole exercise you must understand is not an election or appointment to enable you distinguish between those who love you and those who hate you. Today, you are an Eze, and you must be the Eze for everyone both those against you and those who were for you. I advise you to take all of them along and embrace peace. Your first assignment should be to invite those who were against you to make peace in your land as no Eze can function effectively if there is no peace in your land”.

He continued “Today, you join several Ezes in the Communities of Imo State. You are now addressed as royal fathers and members of Imo State Traditional Council which its right is given to you until death, unless you act in such a manner that you are found wanting before the members of this society”.

He explained that “The essence of Ezeship is not in the title of being called HRM or HRH, it’s in what you have been able to do to change your society for good. You have to understand that you have enormous responsibilities, Ezeship is not an easy job, it attracts enmity and takes all your time”.

In his vote of thanks, Eze Lucky Ajoku of Ihiagwa Autonomous Community, described the governor as an apostle of good conscience and equity and promised that they will embrace peace and help the government attain the lofty ideals of the Community Government Councils in their various communities.

In the last fours years, except during the 2015 elections, Okorocha has not stepped out from Owerri to any other local govt area in Imo state to perform any official development function.


Google it.
Imagine Okorocha talking about speaking Igbo, when he does not even care for the Igbos entrusted to his care, except the ones living in Owerri.

Last week, Okorocha told the heads of his Owerri City Schools to use cut-off marks to admit students..
Does that not mean that those students who can't make the cut-off marks be sent back to rest of Imo state which Okorocha officially declared as rural villages?

Okorocha works as Mayor of Owerri, not as governor of Imo state, since 2013.

copy copy...just because he went to kano emirs palace and met the outspoken SLS speaking hausa to them during their condolence visit. he has suddenly realize that his ezes should be speaken igbo.lol

Shelloween:
This is a welcome development but it doesn't change the fact that Okorocha is a pvssy.

And your dad is a d¡ck what a nice combination, your dad, a d¡ck fvcks Okorocha, a pvssy.

Stupid Hausa man

I just hope if/when Biafra comes into being, all the minority traditional rulers would not also be forced to speak in Igbo

Autonomous Community Leaders AKA Ezes
They were appointed by Governor so he can tell them what to do.
Try it with real Traditional rulers and 7 years constipation will be your case.

na wa o! what of Owerre Ebeiri king? Eze Benjamin UZoma son? the Eze Emenaha 11 of Owerre Ebeiri autonomous community. Orlu

Igweeeeeeeeeee

Okorocha is a disrespectful governor. he hav no right to ban anybody from d use of English talk more of traditional rulers. Apart frm traditional functions which is based on their respective kingdoms wer dey av to use d native language, There are some political functions among traditional rulers where they wud hav to use English to conduct such functions thats y English is official language. For exp in my state Delta, there's Delta State Traditional Rulers Council. Thats a council for all govt recognised traditional rulers across d state, it comprises of Ijaw kings, Urhobo kings, delta ibo kings, itsekiri n isoko. so such a diverse council of rulers from different ethnicities shud den b conducted with 1 language? Thats Y English is official language n Nobody can deprive anyone of its use. Traditional rulers that claim pastors n Christianity shud b dethroned, those r d ones we got problem with bcus they happen to be selling the culture they are to preserve for the pple.
