We are not foolish people in Enugu. We will never make the same mistake imolites made. Apc is a Satanic party that we the easterners need to rejec. Okorocha would be the last Apc governor in the south east

Bro, Okorocha didn't win the Imo election. Everyone could testify to that

Veteran Nollywood actor and lawyer Kenneth Okonkwo has confirmed that he is indeed serious about his plan to venture into politics.

in a recent chat with TS Weekender, the actor said he decided to run because he is unhappy by the approach the incumbent governor of Enjugu state, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi is using to rule Enugu.


His words:

Ugwuanyi’s style is all about mounting billboards and renting crowd, the more you look, the less you see.

“We will take things step by step. We have just taken the first step; there would be a lot to let out of the bag in due course. My people from the entire Enugu North have just presented me to the party as their candidate. That was the first step.”


Ironically, Okonkwo, who declared on the platform of All Progressives Congress (APC), campaigned vigorously for the incumbent governor back in 2015.

Those supporting Okonkwo’s include former Enugu Governor Sullivan Chime, Voice of Nigeria boss, Osita Okechukwu, Ex-APC governorship candidate Oke Ezea and former Enugu House Of Assembly speaker, Eugene Odo.

Do you think he stand a chance to emerge Enugu state’s next governor?

Imagine people rejecting seaming capable hands at the poll because of party bias coming to bemoan the death of democracy and development in their region.

Nigeria will not grow until will learn to jettison this syndrome of "our-son-politics". Lets the best hands be there regardless of his party flag, tribe or belief.

Is nsukka de only place u know in Enugu .. all those things dat u see in Enugu city and oda parts are done by Sullivan. Gburu gburu is only working in nsukka..
De last tym he came to new market nobody even went to see him. De traders and keke riders were just busy doing dia job while touts and primary school students surrounded him. Trust me enter De city of Enugu and ask around u would see dat few people fancy gburu gburu.. and also talking of light de street light done 4 us by oga Sullivan is now malfunctioning de gburu gburu no wan repair or maintain am.






Pope22:
Ugwuanyi has won the hearts of all Enugu north including nsukka where Kenneth okonkwo comes from. The kind of road with street lights ugwuanyi has given Enugu north is 2nd to know. Anytime ugwuanyi visits nsukka, no market in nsukka will open, its not a tented crowd..he is simply loved by Enugu people. Am from anambra but reside in nsukka and I envy nsukka people cus of the kind of work ugwuanyi does there.

You don't know Enugu state politics, if you do, you won't be saying all these. Let me give you a hint. Enugu state politics is a selfish political system, Enugu state politics is...go and develop your place. When chimaroke and Sullivan were governors, not even a single road in enugu north was rehabilitated not to talk of constructing. They were busy concentrating on UDI and agbani, thats Enugu state politics for you. Gburubguru is from Enugu north and what Sullivan told him when he was handed over to him was gburubguru go and build your place. Believe me, he is not failing or disappointing them.

You see where you Easterners failed it badly, you see whu you people will never make a president in the country, you see why other tribes hate you people,
do you think making politics athing of tribalism will lead u people any where? NO

Keep using one party to secure your small 5 states while every other party gets the presidential sit. NONSENSE

Re: Kenneth Okonkwo: Why I Am Running For Enugu Governorship Election In 2019 by Masterdeking(m): 7:42pm On Mar 10, 2018
His immediate brother, Ohamadike who contested for many years without wining has decamped to PDP. Ohamadike said that the incumbent Governor is the only person that has the interest of Ndi Enugu at heart. He said that gburugburu has achieved the goals he wanted to achieve when he was contesting for governor that is why he joined PDP as the only viable party. He stated this in Nsukka during the inauguration of Gburu Gburu movement

This has shown that his family do not support him. Kenneth is on his own.

REJECT THIS SELFISH FOOL!!!

So he rejected his people (IPOB) all because he was gunning on running for governor, just like the actor Edochie because his son was planning on running for Governor as well.

REJECT THESE SELFISH FOOLS

The good people of Enugu must reject this fraud. Enugu seriously needs to move forward. And what is needed is a capable technocrat not some washed up B-grade actor looking to come back into the limelight.
