Igbos Only Good At Pulling People Down, They Don’t Value Their Own – Okorocha by Trendvoice: 4:26pm On Aug 12, 2018
@NAIRATREND.COM.NG

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.”

One thing with the Igbos-they dont follow any leader(s) for the sheer sake of followership but follow individual conscience appeal.
Meanwhile Okorocha is an ambitious, egocentric and "paranoidly" deluded man.

Okoroawusa I'm so happy you are ready our comments on social media. We no longer need to pay brown envelop journalists on print media before we speak to corrupt power mongers like you.
If you are honorable, you should have resigned from Douglas house since we now both agree you no longer have the support of Igbos who bled on the streets of Owerri, Orlu, okigwe to vote you in 2011. It means you and your APC thieves are banking on rigging to install your son-in-law in 2019 since everyone including you know you have lost local support.

Okorawusa should ask himself why he was loved by Igbos and beyond in 2011 but hated today. Okoroawusa should ask himself why he was begged by Abia people to come be their governor when he attended Igbo governors meeting in Abia in 2012. Okoroawusa should ask himself why he was loved by Anambrarians and Onitsha and Awka stood still for him when he attended Apga rally in Anambra in 2012 but will be spat at today by same people if he walk on the streets of Igboland alone including his own village.

He has lost his goodwill by thinking he can maintain power by being anti-Igbo just many before him.
Unlike unrepublican almajiris and yorumuslim zombies Igbos don't move with politicians from party to party, they are not cows. That's the difference in political ethnic principles. It is the Igbos who tell their leaders which party to belong, the power remains with the people in Igboland not the other way round. Just like what happened to Akpabio in Akwa Ibom our cousin state, no matter how popular you are, if you take the people's support to another party that have always insulted them, you'll start losing relevance faster than a yoruba man throws amala into his mouth, ask Orji kalu.

It's a lesson every Igbo politician must learn, Igbos don't have a 'cow-herd' mentality like abookis and yorubas. Igbos are republican and different, always factor this when making political decisions. Yes we will pull down any politician that liases with buffoons like Buhari and his gangs who keeps insulting the East and killing Easterners.

After 2019 Okoroaboki will be totally irrelevant in Imo politics. That's settled.

Okoroawusa should stop being pretentious and decamp from the Igbo ethnic group to the hausa ethnic group where he truly belongs. He is a politician he should be able to decamp from anything to anything. cheesy

I can't imagine this is the fool I loved so much and campaigned for in 2010-2011. Every newspaper, political pundits, commentator in Igboland loved this guy in 2011 but today he such a bumbling shame.

He is unfortunate that Igbos are not the herd mentality type like hausas and yorubas that are herded by incompetent politicians from one party to another without any tangible ideology. If he has stuck to ruling his only awusa people in Kano, he wouldn't be in this dilenma. cheesy
