APC Stakeholders South East meeting called by the South East zonal Chairman, Chief Emma Eneukwu at the instance of the President Buhari 2019 presidential campaign Director-General, Hon. minister, Rotimi Amaechi rejected Governor Rochas Okorocha as the chairman of the 15-man Campaign council for the zone.

Reacting to Rotimi Amechi’s briefing to the South East stakeholders at the residence of Senator Chris Ngige at Abuja last Thursday, the leaders sited several verifiable reasons why Rochas Okorocha should not be the chairman of the South East campaign council.

Prominent among the litany of objections include Okorocha’s unpopularity among Ndigbo, the religious organizations and his inability to provide effective leadership to the APC in the South East.

Rochas is messed up yes I know
But after traveling to Owerri las xmas I have a change of heart about him tho

His ideas are crazy in the good way but lacks the ability to make them work

We just need a governor who would just spend 100bn in 2years and put finishing touches to all his achievements and Owerri would be the best city in south south -south east ( yes better than Enugu and port harcourt )

As for apc and their election I don't care

Soludo or duke got my vote locked down if they don't contest then Ribadu if he doesn't contest the Buhari

The current mood in Igbo land now is that if you nominate Rochas to be a presidential candidate for any major political party today,Igbos will vote his opponents massively even if none is an Igboman.
We don't do mediocrity.
Not as if we hate him,but his (bad)works have spoken for him grin

JONATHAN SPEAKS OUT...

I Didn't Hand Over A Collapsed Nation To Buhari - Dr. Goodluck Jonathan-

- Former President, Goodluck Jonathan has replied his critics who accused him of handing over a nation at the verge of collapse to his successor, President Muhammadu Buhari.

- Jonathan recounted the achievements of his government to include, handing over a country that produced the richest man in Africa.

- Jonathan said, “I took over a Nigeria that was the second largest economy in Africa with a GDP of $270.5 billion in 2009,

- I handed over a Nigeria that had grown to become the largest economy in Africa and the 24th largest economy in the World with a GDP of $574 billion.

- I handed over dollar exchange rate of N187 per Dollar official rate in our banks, compared to their N360 now official rate for a Dollar

-“I inherited a Nigeria in which the trains were not working, and handed over a Nigeria in which citizens can safely travel by trains again.

- I also inherited a country where illiteracy rate particularly in the Northern part was alarming.

- I handed over a country where every state in the North and indeed all the states had a Federal University. I inherited a country where there was total infrastructural decay in all the unity schools and colleges of education.

- But I handed over a country with massive infrastructural improvement in almost higher institutions.

- I inherited a country where agricultural inputs and production were almost zero.

- But I handed over a country where a bag of rice was sold for N6,500 to N7000.

- My regime since the establishment of ecological fund office did more irrigation dams in the North and other parts of the country than other subsequent administrations put together.

- I inherited epileptic fuel supplies resulting to endless queues at the filling stations. I maintained despite enormous challenges of fuel subsidies and handed over a relatively stable fuel regime and also at a managed local price of N87 per litre.

- I inherited a Nigeria that was a net importer of cement, and handed over a Nigeria that is a net exporter of cement.

- In 2009 the richest Nigerian was the 5th richest man in Africa, but I handed over a Nigeria that produced the richest man in Africa.

- The former President further stated " I inherited a country where people were almost losing hope on the credibility of its electoral process but I noticed that democracy will continue to grow in the African continent if leaders value the process of elections more than the product of the process. I handed over electoral process that engendered fairness in its conduct and conclusiveness ".

- He said, “Even in the 2015 general elections in my country, Nigeria, there was potential for major crisis if I was not a President duly elected by the will of the people.

- “The campaigns leading to the elections almost polarized the country into Christian vs Muslims and North vs South divide.

- Most World leaders were worried that our elections will result into major crisis.
Some pundits even from here in the United States said that those elections would spell the end of Nigeria and that we would cease to exist as a nation because of the polls.

- That is where the leadership question comes into play.

- As a leader that was duly elected by the people, I considered the people’s interest first.

- How do I manage my people to avoid killings and destruction of properties?

- With the interest of the people propelling all the decisions I took, we were able to sail through.

- Indeed, we sailed through because I refused to interfere with the independence of the Independent National Electoral Commission, 'INEC', having appointed a man I had never met in my life to run it. We sailed through because I maintained and still believe that my personal ambition, interest is not worth the blood of any single Nigerian.

- My philosophy was simple. For elections to be credible, I as a leader, must value the process more than the product of the process. And the citizens must have confidence in the electoral body.

- Pls circulate it for them to know. The deceit is getting too much

We need to do something to stop the Cattle colony in our state..please let's all repost.

Buhari did not request for new oil refineries for states, 
Buhari did not request for international airport for states, 
Buhari did not request for power plant for states, 
Buhari did not request for World Bank assisted projects for states.
Buhari is not requesting for an improves education, health care, good roads, and security in your States. 

What Buhari and the northern leaders are requesting for your states is "Cattle Colonies. There we go Nigeria

Who cares? Its not as though Buhari needs the votes from that region to get reelected, at best he needs the 25% constitutional requirement from 2/3rd of the states. Okorocha has a penchant for inciting hostility towards his person from his kinsmen
