Igbos Only Good At Pulling People Down, They Don’t Value Their Own – Okorocha by Meekdon: 3:19pm On Aug 12, 2018
Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State has claimed that Igbo are only interested in pulling down people and do not know how to honour their own.
Okorocha said whenever he comes out to contest for president, he gets support from the South West, South South and even the North; but rejected by his own South East region.
The governor spoke while answering question on Igbo presidency when he met with media chieftains in Owerri, the Imo State capital at the weekend.
Okorocha said that any Igbo indigene aspiring to achieve the feat of being the president of Nigeria cannot rely on Igbos.
The governor said “The Igbo do not know how to honour their own. They rather like to run down any of their rising leaders. The pull-him-down syndrome is high in Igbo land. And it is very unfortunate.
“Anytime I come out to run for the presidency of this country, I will not suffer pull-him-down from the North or from the South West or South South, it is only in Igbo land that I will suffer it.
“And they engage in this pull-him-down practice without knowing the overall implications on the Igbos.
“So, it will be out of place for an Igbo aspirant at any given period to think that the Igbo will make him president because Igbos do not value their own. They don’t value what they have.
“But value outsiders. It is in their character. It is in their nature.
“Read the newspapers and go to the social media, all the insults and attacks you get are all from the Igbo. They go to any length to run you down without caring about your good intentions and all the efforts being made to see that things work out fine for the people of the area.
“It is a problem. It didn’t start today. Go down the memory lane, you would discover that the pull-him-down syndrome in Igboland didn’t start today.”

The race to having a igbo president in Nigeria I fear will be undermined by themselves, they cooperate so well in business but don't seem able to replicate such cooperation in politics

Why didn't they pull Nnamdi KANU down... . may be you are not pure! Okorocha.

And why are you forcing your son in-law on IMO people to be their governor.... You know Igbo's don't play like that.. wink Reasons why they don't give F about you and your ambition.

Good point.

This also applies to those insulting other fellows for their choices. They have PVC and it will come in handy when you need them. They will remember. There are many elections coming, No be only 2019.

Did they also pull you down when you won the governorship seat? Was it Hausas and Yorubas that voted you as governor of Imo state?

The way this particular thread full the politics section is crazy, I've seen like three of this same thread.

Afonja is just trying to masturbate on igbo matters not knowing that they are shooting themselves in the foot.

There was a time they were cheering you and stoning corrupt politicians. I remember that of Theodore Orji vividly

So if they stop cheering you, could it be that you have joined the corruption gang
