How could any right thinking human with a sound mind actually think those statues (which aren't even the size of the Statue of Liberty) could cost up to N520million each?

Whilst the statues still remain unnecessary and whilst I still believe a more substantial sum must have been pocketed in the moulding of those statues (definitely more than N500k), it still remains a fact that a lot of Nigerians are just too dumb for either generating or believing or spreading that N520million silly story.

You would be surprised at the miracles that our politicians can perform when it comes to finances , have you forgotten that he couldn't defend the purchase of a christmas tree for 600million??

I don't know how much a statue costs but if is a lot of art. 500k is too too low for each statue. Knowing how we even handle third party contracts in Nigeria, are we saying someone did all that wahala for 100k profit assuming a statue costs 400k each.

IMO =THE STATUE STATE ANAMBRA=LIGHT OF THE NATION.

The real question to ask is, where did the figure come from?... Where did the N600million figure originate from? Anyone could just sit behind their laptop and claim N10billion was spent on christmas tree. Was the figure picked up from a budget document or was it from some gutter blog?..

With the rate at which any idiot can just churn out any report online and call it news, do you spare a second to consider how incredulous a figure sounds before even dignifying it with arguments?... Same way someone claimed $90billion was recovered from 1 person and people started discussing the nonsense with 'utmost seriousness'

So Rochas Okorocha is even a good catholic. So why do people call him Okoroawusa and claim he is a secret Muslim?

How much was spent during their commision?

Chai! See the place like burial ground.

I don't believe this

Imo State should be renamed "State of Tombstones"

Pure lie. The one of my late grandmother, just the head, cost #150,000.00 and was done by a family friend.

Can I be paid by Okorocheat to build more statutes. How do I apply? Biko!!!!

Statues for Okorocha's Capital City.


Stories from a state governor who blatantly and maliciously refuses that any other town outside his state capital shall see development.

Cockroach okoroawusa tell us another lies...

cockroach okoroawusa should come and collect 500k and erect one on my name I need it around control junction or Douglas

Wiseandtrue:
No right thinking human being irrespective of any walks in life will support Rochas Okorocha on this even if the statue is 1k (kobo)

with so much unpaid salaries, lack of infrastructure I mean what are we talking about

This is a very heartless project!

Lack of infrastructure in Imo?

But Rochas is building ten-lane roads and flyovers in Owerri - like it is in Ikorodu Road, Lagos;
while rest of Imo state has no more roads.

Rochas even puts metal decorations rooftops on top of Owerri roads.
Lagos has 15 million population. Owerri has less than 1 million population; on weekends and festive days, nearly 3/4 of the population in Owerri leave for the hinterland.

The statues didn't even cost up to 500k but rather slightly above 400k. The fake news of 520 million was started by one AIC Akwarandu on facebook and he does dish out lies which Vanguard and Punch that has PDP correspondents would publish. Even the lie of 600m Xmas tree was from same source. This year they've perfected plans to publish that 850 million was used for Xmas decorations. Okorocha just doesn't like to engage the liars because he believes the people on ground will always know the truth.

I seriously doubt APC will achieve anything since the inception of this administration because if they are not lying, they are busy defending a lie or blaming the opposition for their predicament.

Don't mind them. Rumours cannot swing the people's love.

Let the people of the state elect a better governor when next they have opportunity to do or even remove this one before he uses the whole money of the state to build status of corruption African leaders and gods of corruption which he worships
