saint kash:

common let's us appreciate something good for once, a jobless graduate need cash to keep body and soul moving b4 he/she gets something doing, this is what federal government should embark on not even a state, but since rochas is doing it, fine, let's appreciate it rather than conderm it ok

victor2exl: what about those IMO state graduates residing outside IMO state what the provision for them in the scheme....eg Lagos, Abuja,PH,abroad etc...Pls urgent reply needed in this comment/request

The law says 'ALL IMO STATE GRADUATES'. So all graduates that are from IMO STATE are about to enjoy allowee from the No.1 oringo Governor of the East!

May God continually Bless Rochas Okorocha and his 350kg wife..

tit: Hi All,
The United States does not pay 'unemployed graduates' or any kind of 'unemployed' nada!
However, when you are employed, you contribute to the unemployment benefit scheme.
This contribution is used to take care of unemployed workers. And what you take out of it depends on how long you have worked and how much you earned and contributed to the scheme.
If/when you get laid off, (or for some qualifying reasons become unemployed), you are eligible to cash in on unemployment benefits.
if you just quit your job or for your direct fault(like steal in the workplace), lose your job, you do not qualify.

if you never worked, you cannot benefit from this scheme.

What Rochas is proposing is unsustainable, idiotic and, worst of all, communist!

babe_online:
interesting. And its is indeed done in some parts of the world.

Its you that should use your brain to think. In how many places in the world do they pay jobless people?

Abagworo: Those criticizing Rochas about industries will be stunned by the rate of industrialization Imo State will witness in a few years time. Orlu people are very wealthy and run the pharmaceutical mafia of Africa. I can bet my last Kobo that with the level of infrastructural revolution being done in Orlu by Rochas, it will experience unprecedented industrialization.

visalo: Rochas that is yet to pay workers salary, want to pay undergraduate? apc politics

Okija juju:

[b]You are just as mouthed as Rochas..

Over 2 years into his administration and;

- Imo State streets now have gates, but no roads.
- Imo State people enjoyed one round of AWOOF kerosene shared inside Imo State Stadium.
- 1 batch of 60 Students were sent to the U.S for a non-academic exchange programme at a very hefty cost to the government.
- Imo State secondary and Primary school pupils were paid 100 and 50 naira respectively.
- Imo State Univeristy was thrown open to all Imo State students, but no infrastructural upgrade has even been done in the school except the painting of the school gate for Imo State 2013 Government Calander picture.
- All Imo State assets have been sold to Rochas (ITC and Concorde hotel inclusive)
- Civil servants owed salary backlog of oer 9 months.
- Local government structure broken down.
- Formerly employed youths fired.
- 1 Imolite jailed for allowing the Governors convoy hit him.
- Rochas Okorochas 300Kg daughters wedding was put on National T.V Live for Imo State people all over to see.
- 1 roadside corn seller gets patronage from Rochas.
- Poor quality uncompleted roads all over the state
- 1 Freedom Squre built for Imo State indegenes to go and vent risk free from arrest.
- Imo State becomes the Kidnap capital of the East and South.


Is this what will bring the industrial boom you speak of?!

If so, then State like Akwa Ibom, Rivers State and Lagos States would join the G8 in 1 year. I can bet my last blood on it.

IMSG doles out N1.7b for payment of workers


Meanwhile, Imo State government has approved the release of N1.7 billion for the payment of the backlog of unpaid salaries, allowances and gratuity of workers of Imo Palm Plantation, Ohaji and Imo Concorde Hotel, Owerri.

Governor Rochas Okorocha, who announced this after a meeting with the affected workers of the two government establishments, also expressed hope that the lifeline would help in alleviating their suffering.

Scores of  aggrieved workers who thronged the Ahiajoku Convention Centre, New Owerri, were told in clear terms that the state government was not in a hurry to pay them off, especially the professionals among them.

“The professionals among Imo Palm Plantation workers would be posted to the Ministry of Agriculture and Natural Resources, where a palm plantation department would be established for them to help the state grow more palms,” Okorocha promised.

Okorocha dampened the workers’ spirit when he informed the hapless, hungry workers that the N900 million owed staff off Imo Palm Plantation and N700 million owed Concorde Hotel staff would be spread over 24 months.

Abagworo:

Either you are deliberately trying to lie or you are being sarcastic. I once decided to challenge people with pictures of finished projects in 2 years and they ran away from the debate. You need to visit Imo State to see the level of infrastructural development. Forget about these liars on Nairaland. I'm sure Rochas will display some of these to mark his 2nd year anniversary so I won't have to worry myself posting them.

No civil servant is owed salaries but workers that were laid off by the buyers of Adapalm and Concord hotel demanded for their arrears owed during Ohakims time and payment for work they did not do. This is how it was resolved
