Appeal court reinstates sacked Imo LG chairmen, councillors We hope that the governor complies rather than heading for the supreme court. |

ifihearam: The Court yesterday ordered the Imo state governor to reinstate the sacked local government chairmen and councillors he replaced with transition committee last year. The court further explained that the governor does not have the power to remove democratically elected persons. If Rochas Okorocha wants us to believe there is iota of democratic principles in him, he must comply with the ruling of the court. I hope some of his praise singers should realize that Okorocha may not have happy days in his life after his term of office if he fails to change some of his political ways. He could find a room in Nigerian courts because he will be in and out of legal proceedings when he leaves office as governor. He should have my support if he adopts the democratic ways of governance. |

Yeah and since he said he is law abiding,I have always known the governor has no power to sack local govt chairmen. |

Local governments should be independent from the state governments and their tenure should not run side by side with the state governors, i think three years is okay for local governments chairman, five years for state governors and four to six years for presidents without the option of going for second term. |

Those Local Govt Chairmen and councellors were under-performing while Owelle want result oriented Chairmen and councellors in positions,its high time Appeal begin to look at the objectives behind such actions and help the governor to see that the said chairmen sit up or face the music. Enough of these incompetent fellows in government,we need change in the three tiers of government. 2 Likes |

I hope that "governor" complies with the judgement of the appeal court. He should never think of second term because he'll meet his doom (I pray) if he ever do so. |

If one is not performing, whether elected or not, should be removed if necessary. So because they were elected officers (who were never elected in the first place)they should remain and tarnish the man's hard-work. If i were the governor i would also sack them from Nigeria and West Africa.... |

Enough of these incompetent fellows in government,we need change in the three tiers of government.You got it wrong. Poor performance is not enough reason for him to sack the chairmen as the appeal court has attested to. The truth is that Owelle sacked them bc their election was conducted by Ohakim, remember he also cancelled the 10000 jobs programme of Ohakim. |

There goes Owelle's fourth tier or community goverment, the money for that un-warranted, ill-informed, and bravadoccio's exercise should have come from divulged funds from the 3rd tier, since the chairmen would now be the master of their own destiny(just an assumption), it suffices me to conclude that the 4th tier or whatever nonmenclature it is referred to, has finally succomb to the tremours and anguish of a'still birth'. Up in belowing smoke goes one of Okorocha's developmental cornerstones. |

paj4love: that man is mad, how on earth will somebody wake up from sleep and ''sack'' an elected executive officer like him,,,,,,,,what a pitty,,,,,he deserves this humiliation '' A reckless executive officer''Paj4love, if rochas is a mad man, then where were you when Akala as the governor of Oyo state sacked the chairmen elected by the people during senator Rashidi Ladoja regime in Oyo state then. In short, Akala must be lunatic of all of them for sacking democratically elected chairmen during his tenure in Oyo state as first governor to lay down bad example for other governor to step into in this country. He should be held responsible for all bad attitudes of the governors sacking the duely elected chairmen of the local government in this country. But a question to the judicial council of this country, Does that means there are courts in this country that can give verdict to return the sacked lg chairmen to their seat. But i discover one thing, this might occured because Rochas is not a pdp governor, If he is a pdp governor sacking other parties's chairmen, the courts will continue to waste their time and money untill they cause everything to become more problems for the appellants. In this country to be candid, there is no any real judgement but favouritism is the order of the day. Weaked people dey judge ooooooooooooooo. God is the only perfect judge. God save us o.

Dtwoabbeyk,,,,the undisputed truth you should know or taken into cognisance is that ''No body can sack an elected office holder except a competent court of law'' meaning GEJ can never sack Rochas or any governor in Nigeria or Rochas or any Governor can sack its LGA Chairman in there state |

Andre Uweh: They were sacked because they were not elected. No one voted for them. We do not need them back in Imo state. Andre thank u jor, U r the only one here that understood what really happened in Imo State August 2010, the so called LG council election was a scam, Ohakim just hand picked some aspirantsfrom the 27 LGA in Imo state and sent their names to his own ISIEC after dissolving the one set by Achinike's government to hurriedly conduct an election even when there was a court injuction ordering him not to hold the election. Any body in Imo State as of that time knew that was nothing like party primaries and even the so called election was a big scam cos people did not go out to vote. It is quite a pity that these guys will come back to frustrate Rochas government all the way, this is a very big blow to Imo state. You see rule of law for lawless Nigerians could lead to ambiguous results. 1 Like |

ifihearam: They were not sacked for underperforming rather they were sacked because they are all PDP. I am 100% sure that those Chairmen were never elected as PDP rejected participating in that LGA election and said they never fielded any candidate hence Ohakim conjured an event and called it election which the results were never declared but People were sworn in a day after the said election. If there was proper election, everybody in Imo would have rejected their removal. Of course a Governor don't have the right to ditch duly elected Chairmen 2 Likes |
