Abagworo: Rochas has not come out in the open but I have this question for my Igbo brothers that were attacking Amaechi that he wants to contest VP. Are we going to give Rochas massive support if he declares?

Abagworo: Rochas is the brightest Igbo leader today and some people are jealous of that. But why?

Abagworo:

Is it Rochas or APGA that is joining APC? It is obvious that Rochas has to either join ACN or APC or float his own party. He won Imo State election because of his personal popularity and used APGA just as a platform. The APGA people were stalling his development plans and trying to give him conditions when they played little or no role in his emergence and his other choice was to return to PDP which is under Ohakim's control. Even if APC doesn't work, Rochas will definitely join another party.

PointB:

If Rochas is presented as flag bearer of a major political party, well I suppose GEJ will have to take the back seat.

slimghost:

If your IQ were to be more than -10, you would have noticed that this thread is not about who is for or against GEJ. Yes, many igbos down in the SE see Rochas as a traitor for joining a party of religious bigots, tribalists and desperadoes. Obj was in power for 8 years and basically achieved nothing, yet there was no merger. Like Uwazurike said, APC is dead on arrival in SE. EZIOKWU!

dinachi: Enough of talking, I intend to open a thread for genuine sons and daughters of igbo land to begin to brainstorm on how to make sure Our revered language is spoken in Aso Rock again come 2015. Enough of being bystanders, the Ijaw hypocrisy will not deter us. They desperately need us but they dont have to be using lies and division to get our support. A Rochas in Aso Rock in 2015 will resurrect the spirit of Igbo nationalism within Nigeria. This is our last chance. A word is enough...........

slimghost:

Not while his IGBONESS is still in question.

dinachi: Rochas cant win southeast but Jonathan can, Ijaw propaganda at its highest! Why do we Igbos hate ourselves so much? Why? Why? Why? How can SS with more than 10 diverse languages be much more united than SE with a single language? If Rochas is contesting either as President or Vice President, He has my vote, the vote of my family and friends. Bikonu kedu mgbe aga asu Igbo na Aso Rock? IJN by 2015 Igbo language will be spoken in Aso Rock! May God make it happen! Amen!

Abagworo: I've said it times without number that were Ojukwu to be from Imo, Anambrians would have done worse than Rivers State. It is as clear as day.

Rhino.5dm:


You mean the Hausas residing in Imo gave him 400 000 votes against Ohakim? You are too daft.

slimghost:

Brother, i have nothing against his presidential ambition, but we must first know if he represents our interest or that of his hausa cousins.

If Ojukwu were from Imo State, the he would not have had any sense... He would have been too busy drinking cheap beer at Ibari Ogwa and carrying umu Nwayi to come up with any great idea.

Rochas was raised by cattle-rearers, thinks like Cattle-rearers,fraternises with Cattle-rearers and then masquerades as an Igbo Man..


NEVER... Instead of rochas, let there be a military coup.

PointB: Igbo here should stop slating Okorocha.

I think he has and edge over GEJ in terms of vision, charisma, etc. He'll certainly be an upgrade. I don't buy this idea of him being a sellout in any case, a man has to accept his destiny. If his destiny is to lead Nigeria to greater height so be. But I think it's mischievous to think that GEJ is better than Rochas. In terms of what if I may ask!

slimghost:

The man's issues started after his elections. I am trying so hard to be civil with you but my patience will run out soon.

dridowu: From what i read so far in ds thread, i have now realise dat the No 1 enemy of Igbos are " IGBOS ". If igbos should continue this way i would become Ex-President of this country before any igbo man/woman becomes the President of Nigeria

PointB:

My guy, keep the Anambra sentiment out of the the discourse. You can discuss Rochas on his merit or otherwise. There is no point fanning the amber of intra division over this.

Shey the same vision he has shown in Imo State.. He should keep it in Imo State. If his people love him so much, they can make him their assembly man, reps or even state commissioner of anything..

But the rest of the Igbo Nation says no to Rochas, Ohakim, Orji Uzor Kalu and Theodore Orji.

Desola:

Whether he represents your interests or not, he cannot win. Your best bet remains Jonathan and you all know it.

slimghost:

Nobody is slating him. We all love him as an "igboman", but we need to see him show that love back. Unfortunately, he is more concerned with impressing his hausa brothers.

Nobody loves him as an Igbo man outside of Imo State..

We Ndi Igbos do not want him.. He should return to his true people in Ugwu Hausa.
