Imo state governor, Rochas Okorocha has said that he owes no one an apology for erecting a statue of South Africa's president Jacob Zuma' in Owerri, the State capital.

Over the weekend, Okorocha erected a 250-metre statue of the South African President in Owerri, which received a lot of backlash by Nigerians.

However, a statement issued by Sam Onwuemeodo, the Chief Press Secretary to Okorocha, said that they cannot be deterred by enemies of the people who are trying to discourage them from making the state open to foreign investors.

The statement reads; “And in case these “Galatians” do not know all we need to do to attract good things or investments to Imo is erecting statues, then, we have no option than to erect as many of such structures as possible.

By the time they finish erecting about 400 statues for all the president of all the country in the world and business leaders, Owerri will be looking like one giant shrine

There's no hopeless situation only hopeless men
Okorocha is one

I sympathize with the people of Imo State.

No problem, maybe we should change the name of the State to "statuesque State"

You can say that to the people of imo

Useless psychotic illiterate. Thank God you are revealing yourself all by yourself without anyone undermining you. Fat pig.

Those that renamed you Okoroawusa didn't make mistake after all.

Agboworo no go say anything now if it's anambra you go see him they rejoice

Okorocha is just acting out his role of giving Easterners/Biafrans, particularly Igbo, the ILLUSION OF INCLUSION. He is everywhere everyday, traveling to and fro with public funds, getting absolutely nothing for it. He meets with Ghana President for what? Now stautue of South African President for what? So that he can be seen and manipulate the sheep that he is relevant and Igbo have stake.

BUT of course it's all lies and more lies. He sold his people out and today Imo State is no where politically, and the Easterners are killed by army, herdsmen, vaccines, flood, and everything because they have no leaders with spine

I don dey use style like dis man I DONT CARE attitude sha..I like stubborn pipu

Guy yu need to go for an emergency brain checkup..I dont think yu are ohk.

APC owes no one any apology or explanation till election day

Invariably the major problem IMO state has is shortage of statues.
Nigerian leaders r not in touch with reality.

" The statement reads; “And in case these “Galatians” do not know all we need to do to attract good things or investments to Imo is erecting statues, then, we have no option than to erect as many of such structures as possible."



Statues to attract FDI??

Walahi Okorocha don kolo big time!

A typical foolish cretin with head compressed like pako biscuit.

So it's statues that will attract investments when you don't have good roads or industries.

The only trade booming in the whole state is prostitution where they sleep with anything including dogs for money.
The only investments you'll see there are hotels, motels, brothels and even more brothels.
Too useless

U owe nobody an apology, just forget ur presidential ambition

my own is that Rochas should put statue where I go to groove.
he should put one around world bank area. but one for 40 40.put one for city global side.
everything don settle
