Those days when Rochas wanted to be the president, I was rooting for him based on his philanthropic gestures and his articulated speech he presented that day.

On getting to the office of the governor, I became elated that at least IMO people can really benefit from the wealth of experience and philanthropism of Rochas.

But, today, Rochas from afar is a disaster to IMO. His style of governance is a credence is his gross incompetence. As a youth, if I have such opportunity, i will definitely do better than these boys called men in governance.

What importance is this visit to IMO, economy of IMO and to imolites in general. Surely, common sense isn't common.

Nigerian politicians are clowns. What has Jacob Zuma or even South African government done for Imo state or Nigeria as a whole to deserve his statue erected in the state and a major road named after him? How many roads in SA are named after a Nigerian? The only thing we get from SA is our people being killed every day by their police and our government has been mute. Imo civil servants have not been paid for months yet millions of naira was spent on this. Rochas just disappointed me.

Rochas nvr fails to disappoint me.

Statues in 2017? That's just tasteless. And I thought that Fela and Awolowo statues by Ambode in Lagos were bad enough.
This is just an eyesore.
Are there no municipal/town council provisions to prevent this statue madness that has taken over the government.
Re: Statue Of Jacob Zuma In Owerri, Nigeria By Rochas Okorocha Sparks Outrage by months: 2:46pm On Oct 15, 2017
OBJ statue is unacceptable in Imo State, Owelle Rochas.

Buhari statue is also unacceptable.

Nobody from North or Southwest should be erected as a statue in any place in Igbo land.

That will simply constitute an offence.

We will simply destroy it once u leave office.

Lol! An average hausa man would not even do this. Even zuma is shocked by the statue.

This dude has issues. Clearly he is only doing this so dt zumas foundation can sponsor his. Its all about money. No honour. This is a disgrace to nigeria, not just imo state.

Theres nothing wrong with statues. They teach ur history and values to unborn generations. We dont even have enough of them. Part of the reason for the rot in our society. We dont honour our honourable men/women.

I wonder what jacob zumas statue will teach the average ibo man about himself though. Clearly rochas is mad. He must think people just erect statues for its aesthetics.
Re: Statue Of Jacob Zuma In Owerri, Nigeria By Rochas Okorocha Sparks Outrage by months: 2:51pm On Oct 15, 2017
My own is that OBJ statue if there, must be removed or we will destroy it after Rochas leaves office.

Then erect Nnamdi Kanu in the position.

My question is what Jacob Zuma has done for IMO citizens that Rochas is wasting tax payers money on the serial polygamist

I have received very authentic info that rochas spent billions of naira on assets and investments in south Africa. He owns alot of real estate and private properties in choice parts of SA like Johannesburg and Cape Town. He also paid hundreds of millions of naira to Sahara reporters when they discovered his assets there so as to make them keep quiet and not blow it open. This honor done for Zuma is an insurance cover for his loot. Rochas is a thief!

Apc and yoroubas onced talked about this man being only sensible politician in igbo land because his people hate him cos he is physcopath and illiterate..

Now the man has done the unthinkable they are pushinghim back to igbos why they elected him but forgot they were the one that endorsed his stupidness in the first place and called it humbleness.

Now the man is now showing first hand foolishness they are now saying its an igbo thing...

Anyway I don't know how this would benefit igbos or owerrians but for now I know it's Rochas trying to sell him self to Africans starting from South Africa.

That is exactly what is happening, when some us point out the leadership qualities deficiency in Okorocha, his supporters and especially the non Imolites and non lgbos attributes it to political reasons. It's really unfortunate and mischievous that same people who attacked us for rejecting Okorocha as an Igbo leader are now attacking Igbos in general for Okorocha's misdeeds.

JACOB ZUMA STATUE HAVE COME TO STAY.

THE FIRST HEAD OF STATE TO LAND HIS PRESIDENTIAL JET IN IGBOLAND WITHOUT STOPPING OFF IN ABUJA OR LAGOS.

This useless man called Rochas need to be arrested and prosecuted immediately he leaves office .

But i frankly think that the man is on hard drugs .He is mentally deranged .

He has pauperized imo state but will definitely pay for all his atrocities .

Unless he decides to leave Nigeria .

Idiot .

Now, this is my fear and concern.

Something told me that OBJ statue will be there.

Consider it marked for destruction. OBJ was President of Nigeria and did absoluetly nothing for Ndiigbo.

Innoson he fustrated, Ibeto he ensured his business did not take off rather, supported Dangote.

Importation ban affected many igbo businesses.

We will destroy OBJ statue and place Nnamdi Kanu statue in his place.

Know ye that the only new road in this 4th republic for Igboland was the Owerri-Onitsha road built mostly under OBJ. Obasanjo is a nationalist and Pan-Africanist like Okorocha.

Okorocha does not have sense period.

Tomorrow he will come and contest for presidency, when people don't vote for him, Igbos will say other Nigerians don't like them.

So you are rooting for Rochas and rooting for Nnamdi Kanu at the same time? Are you aware that Rochas hates Nnamdi kanu, ipob and the biafran struggle with venom? Dude, you are confused!
