if this is actually true, then the governor is either on drug or should be taking drugs

Abeg free Rochas jare. There are statues of African other Presidents in that same location. Not only Zuma

Imo state is filled with weak people... the only Biafra State way get mind na Abia... the rest na fake... spineless!!

Rochas Dey do anyhow n nobody fit follow am up!! Even before he won, una no reason him history!?

See how e embarrass us!! Like really who is Zuma?? Why put his statue in nigeria, a man that can’t even contain xenophobia

Nigerians are killed daily under that clown!!!

Rochas is a fool and imo citizens are naive..
If they were serious, they’d pull the statue down

Corruption everywhere

Daplux4:
@ op please can u kindly mention the exact place u saw the statue in imo state

from d background of d artificially build rock with water fall only two places in owerri hv such
1. library, at d gate of gov house
2. ICC, international conference centre

a blessing in disguise, after publicity tourism boom is next for the people of imo state, south Africans will not only come to see t b Joshua, them go branch for IMO state meaning good business for hotels and other businesses in the tourism sector.

This statue thing is a huge disappointment to say the least. Rochas should have just remained a respected philanthropist, rather than dabbling into politics to make a mess of himself

I will not even say anything

emsheddy:
I really need explanations on how I ended up as a Nigerian!

Where you wan end up before... USA, Australia. mteww.
you are not goin anywhere....

As a full blooded Igbo man. I confidently say that rochas okorocha is an idiot! He is a monkey and this is why the educated and enlightened youths like myself and others should be motivated to vie for political office. rochas has the IQ of a toothpick.

If Imoites have sense, one night they should go there and pull it down. I would do that if I was an Imoite.

i strongly believe Nigeria should go back to colonization.. or do wat Ghanaians did..bring all dese confused leaders to a room and burn dem alive. Fire burn d wicked!!!

owerri

Jeezuzpick:
Hmmmmmmmm.............

Its like..........

INEC should have a psychological examination session for aspirants for elected positions in Nigeria.

Rochas seems to have a few screws loose.

I concur with u bro, infact any aspirant should be mandated to submit their 3months brain test prior to the election. it shows majority of our leaders have no brain at all

Misplaced priority. Good riddance to bad rubbish

the ops is cheat why censore a statues

PLEASE FOR THE RECORD, IT HAS BEEN PROVEN BEYOND EVERY REASONABLE DOUBT THAT ROCHAS OKOROAWUSA IS NOT AN IGBO MAN. HE'S AN HAUSA MAN. A PRODUCT OF HIS MOTHER'S INFIDELITY. CUZ NO SANE IGBO MAN WILL DO WHAT THIS HAUSA MAN JUST DID. HE'S NOW AN INTERNATIONAL DISGRACE.

Sleyanya1:


I still can't comprehend the basis for immortalizing
A south African civilian leader In your state who has made insignificant or no impact to the lives of your people.

Meanwhile, most teachers' salaries are still being owed and the statue is estimated proudly to be about N50m.

What a Shame

IS IT ONLY THAT ONE? THE PRESIDENT OF THE SAME SOUTH AFRICANS THAT HAVE BEEN KILLING IGBOS LIKE GOAT EVEN AS WE SPEAK, IS THE ONE OKORO IS UNVEILING HIS STATUE. SHAME ON OKORO, HE NEEDS TO GET HIS HEADS EXAMINE.

Foolishness of the highest order.

So IMO state erects a statue for a man whose fellow citizens hate Nigerians so much... And what has his achievement been? For his country and to our benefit too? Wrong timing.

with the recent killings of Nigerians, and senseless xenophobic epedemic going on in SA, we are busy erecting statues in honour.... Of what?

Rochas I A Monumental Idi.... Hw Does Dis Relate 2 D Masses

Tuale Naija! a country where very things goes!! Do we have a Nigerian president statue in SA or any other African country??

Angelanest:
While Nigerians are still trying to understanding the motive behind the huge statue of South Africa's president erected and unveiled by governor Rochas Okorocha in Owerri, Imo state, a photo of an old statue of Jacob Zuma erected in South Africa has surfaced online.

The controversial statue of Jacob Zuma erected in South Africa was designed by artist Ayanda Mabulu, who was sharply criticized for the artwork which left the president's g3nitals exposed.

am not surprised at Rocha's okorocha, I blame the fools who voted him into power

It's truly something to be shocked about. The fact that a matured man that people elected (Not even a Military ruler) and gave their mandate to would do something like this after causing casualties in his state.

I just pray people won't sell their votes for vague & mirage promises for electoral candidates come 2019.

If south africa is so bad for Nigerians, why are they not going back home in numbers ? . They could simply ask both governments to work together to send them both home since they aren't safe here? . Funny thing is the Nigerians who talk the most have never been to SA. Ask yourselves one thing;

Why are our brothers ( almost a million if not more this year) refusing to leave that country? . Why are there more flooding the SA embassies daily to the point that they resorted to taking only a 100 applications daily. " they are killed daily" according to you , does this mean Nigeria is hell on earth? Her kids running to a " warzone" instead of staying back home where they can live in peace. Smh. Sentimental bunch.

I can't take this no more ooooooooo

rochas has no right to place zuma statue in owerri
