Governor Rochas Okorocha

Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State on Saturday punched a protocol officer who refused to allow him sit on a chair reserved for the Anambra State Governor, Mr. Peter Obi, at the 80th birthday celebration of former vice president, Chief Alex Ekwueme, in Enugu.

The incident occurred 20 minutes before most of the invited guests arrived.

SUNDAY PUNCH learnt that the seater was reserved for the host Governor, Mr. Sullivan Chime and Obi. The Deputy Governor, Mr. Sunday Onyebuchi, represented Chime who is still out of the country.

The protocol officer, Mr. Ifeanyi Onukuba, who works with Obi, was shocked at Okorocha’s action and before he could recover from it, a police officer attached to the Bomb Disposal Unit in Anambra State, Mr. Felix Alumona, pushed Okorocha when he was removing the tag bearing Obi’s name from the seat.

Our correspondent observed that Okorocha’s Aide de Camp, Gabriel Onu, immediately pounced on Alumona, hitting and tearing his uniform, while other security details attached to the Imo governor joined in the scuffle.

Sensing that the matter was beginning to attract people, Okorocha quickly waded in, saying, “Hey, please stop the fight! Let us not fight over an ordinary seat. I will share the seat with Peter Obi.”

Minutes after the fracas, Okorocha’s aides grumbled saying, “Why is it that anywhere we go, they always reserve a special seat for Obi. Is Okorocha not the leader of Ndigbo?”

When Obi arrived, he squeezed himself in the couch, sitting between Onyebuchi and Okorocha.[/b]

double post

the blood of the children starved by biafran soldiers at work.the ibos should await more calamity until they atone for the innocent civilians killed by starvation by biafran soldiers!!yeye

These south-east governors are a big disgrace. The last time I fought over a seat was when I was in the primary school. And looking back now, I always laughed at the foolishness of that action. Now in 2012, governors are fighting over seats? Have they so embezzled all the money that there is none remaining to purchase an additional cheap couch? SMH

I reserve my comment till I see and verify the link.

Interesting!

And so? What less can you expect from our leaders.

Achebe may not be far from the truth this time, the problem with the Igboman is Arrogance, coupled with self-righteousness.

I can't but agree with that assertion.

copy cat...

N/l MODERATORS

Rochas over reacted. Reserving a set for peter obi is no big deal. I'm very disappointed on how personal he took the whole thing.

if i say ibos are silly tribes,people go talk say i don start again.

why on earth,should someone fight over chair?
it shows the stupidity,and uncalled arrogance of the leaders of the dejected tribe called ibos.

it can never happen in a yoruba gathering..

i wonder,why the flood didnt flush the eastern part from the map of Nigeria.

You are just silly. Where in the world would people not behave unseemingly?

You wonder why the flood didn't flush the eastern part.

Do you think that it is only the ibos that occupy the eastern part. Most of your brothers are here too. Foolish thought pattern.

Amen,no mind those riffraffs called ibos.
God made a mistake by creating that tribe.

Rochas Okorocha disappointed me big tym.

How in any way is this a calamity? That some persons puportedly had a scuffle over a seat,and all of a sudden it becomes a calamity. It's either you're a junkie or you're burning with so much hatred and jealousy over not being an Igbo. And I much suspect the latter. Either way, go hug a transformer!

Does it matter? You wont find dem in their states anyway. Most of them are immigrants.

How can u say God made mistake by creating the igbo, the most industrious tribe in d whole wide world. Mind how u talk about God the creator before he wipes ur tribe out from dis world. Remember he said I will bless those who bless u and curse those who curse u.

Be guided accordingly

and yet some people will call achebe a tribalist for pointing out the obvious, bunch of bitter bastards, the more you hate the more we deal with you economically

Yomieluv: Amen,no mind those riffraffs called ibos.

Yomieluv: if ur silly tribe is better than mine,what are u doing on my land,ode

Did I hear u say ur land? Who develop ur land? Igbos own 80% of ur land.keep quite and contribute wisely instead of making urself look stupid

Be guided accordingly

Yomieluv: if ur silly tribe is better than mine,what are u doing on my land,ode

common sense is not common but i wont educate you, keep wallowing in ignorance after all its to our own benefit that your ignorant and st upid.
