ENUGU — Imo State Governor, Chief Rochas Okorocha, yesterday, declared his intention to run for the 2015 presidential election on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

In an emphatic statement, the Governor said, “I will be Nigeria’s President in 2015.”

He made the declaration at a rally organized by the Enugu State chapter of the APC at the Igbozurume Hall, in Emene, Enugu State.

The governor said Jonathan was not an Igbo man and that the PDP-led government had consistently marginalized the people of the South-East.

According to him: “Jonathan is not from the South-East, the Vice President is not from here, the Senate President, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, the Chief Justice of Nigeria, CJN, the Inspector General of Police, IGP, and the security chiefs, none of them is from the South-East. Igbo people have no place in Nigeria. How can we say that PDP belongs to Ndigbo?

“Niger Bridge is 419, Enugu/Onitsha and Port-Hacourt Express way are all evidences of their hatred for Ndigbo; they don’t remember the poor, all our leaders in PDP are only interested in their pockets, they don’t care about our children’s education.

“We are angry and we said we have to come out; in Imo State, poor people are happy now, they study from primary to university without paying penny; our God party is bigger than their God, if what they are doing to the poor people here is good, let them continue but if it is bad, God will uproot them.

In 2015, I will be the president of Nigeria, I have gone to Kaduna, I have gone to Lagos, I am in Enugu today, they are already afraid; they are now calling for dialogue. If they are discussing those contesting for presidency on the platform of APC, Owelle will be the first, Buhari and then Kwakwanso; they said it was zoned to the North, I told our party, when did the meeting take place? I also met with my brother Ngige and we zoned it to Ndigbo.

“APC is an emergency party for new Nigeria, if PDP is doing well, I would not have joined APC, when God wants to do something, he does it from anywhere, it doesn’t matter whether Nwobodo, Ken, Nwodo, Ekweremadu are with us or not.

“I heard that some of them are boasting of money, but tell them that Rochas has come; any day you hear that PDP brought money with pick-up, tell me so that I will bring money with trailer. All these PDP leaders in South-East, if you put their money together, it is not equal to half of my money.”

So you copied my thread and changed the title.

I agree with you but they are not coincidents but rolled out plan orchestrated to give the opposition bad name without minding the children being killed. Here is a confession from MEND leader.

Jonathan’s agents carried out two bombings – Okah insists
“Diezani called me 20 times to be made minister” •
Allegations are false in their entirety – Presidency

Henry Okah and President Goodluck Jonathan
Detained leader of the Movement for the Emancipation of the
Niger Delta, Mr. Henry Okah, has insisted that President
Goodluck Jonathan’s agents sponsored the March 15, 2010 and
October 1, 2010 bombings in Warri and Abuja respectively for
political considerations.
Okah made the allegation in a 194-paragraph affidavit deposed
to in the South Gauteng High court in Johannesburg, South
Africa in Case No: A570/10.
The allegations first came to light in an interview Okah granted
Arabic satellite television, Aljazeera , in October 2010, weeks after
the blast. In the interview, he blamed the attacks on Jonathan’s
aides and claimed he was arrested for refusing to influence
MEND, to retract its claim of responsibility.
Since then, Okah has been denied bail at least twice, with one at
the South Gauteng High Court, Johannesburg, where he is filing
a new application for bail based on “new facts.”
The sworn affidavit was expected to be filed at the court
between Tuesday and Wednesday as part of his renewed bid to
secure bail, after spending more than one year in a South
African jail.
His trial is set to start on October 1, 2012, exactly two years
after a devastating blast that occurred less than a kilometre
from the Eagle Square in Abuja, where Jonathan was attending
Nigeria’s 50th anniversary.
He said the March 2010 car bomb blast (which he said occurred
on March 14, 2010) at the Government House Annex, Warri,
where South-South governors were attending an amnesty
meeting, was intended to pave the way for the removal of Delta
State Governor, Emmanuel Uduaghan, and his replacement by
the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Godsday Orubebe.
“It is my belief that President Goodluck Jonathan’s government
working with a faction of MEND planned and executed the
bombings of 14 March 2010 and 1 October 2010.
“The purpose of the 14 March 2010 bombing in my opinion was
to create an atmosphere of insecurity in Niger Delta where
President Goodluck Jonathan at that time, was fighting to oust
the governor Mr. Emmanuel Uduaghan whom President
Goodluck Jonathan intended to replace with his Minister for
Niger Delta, Mr Godsday Orubebe,” Okah said in the affidavit.
On the Independence Day bombing, which claimed 10 lives,
Okah said it was meant to sway public opinion against the North
and some of its leaders who were planning to run against
Jonathan in the April 2011 presidential election.
Okah has been held at the Johannesburg Prison since October 2,
2010, and is currently standing trial for alleged involvement in
the October 1 bomb attack.
He alleged that Jonathan was upset when MEND claimed
responsibility for the October 1 attack, against a plan to blame it
on Northern elements.
He stated, “The bombings of 1 October 2010 were also intended
by President Goodluck Jonathan government to create anti-North
sentiments nationwide in order to galvanize support from other
sections of Nigeria against other Northern candidates in the
Presidential election.
“Under the arrangement, MEND, I believe, was not to claim
responsibility for the bombings which the Nigerian government
hoped to pin on General Babangida and other Northern
elements. The claim of responsibility by the central group for a
bombing, possibly carried out by a faction of MEND, punctured
the plans of President Goodluck Jonathan to round up his
opposition and hold them in custody until after the elections.”
He claimed to have come under pressure from some of
Jonathan’s aides to get MEND to retract its claim of
responsibility for the bombing, recalling that his “refusal to
cooperate in this scheme resulted in President Goodluck
Jonathan placing a call to President Jacob Zuma during the
evening of 1 October 2010, requesting President Zuma’s personal
assistance in securing my arrest. My noncooperation was
interpreted by President Goodluck Jonathan as support for the
Northern politicians.
“The South African Government’s direct interference was
responsible for securing search and arrest warrants against me.”
Okah also claimed to have influenced Jonathan’s appointment of
Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke as minister of petroleum resources,
at the prompting of a Jonathan aide. He alleged that between
April 4 and 5, 2010, he received approximately 20 calls from
Alison-Madueke, asking him to “put in a good word for her” with
Jonathan to consider her for the position.
He also countered evidence and public statements by the SSS
detailing his alleged involvement in the October 1 blast. Okah
provided telephone numbers used by Jonathan’s aides and
Alison-Madueke in reaching him

akpanoka:
Am just asking, since it is fast becoming a trend.

Each time Gej wants to receive PDP returnees or attend a declaration, bomb goes off.

Marily recently alluded to same fact.

So, are they against tommorrow's event? But why?

I agree with you but they are not coincidents but rolled out plan orchestrated to give the opposition bad name without minding the children being killed. Here is a confession from MEND leader.

berem:
Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu said Igbos will produce the president in 2027. Rochas please prove him wrong biko.

I am so proud of Rochas Okorocha for being different from those fools parading themselves as Igbo leaders and making us 3rd class citizens in our own country. Come next year there will be power shift from killers to builders and I am glad some Igbo men like Ngige and Okorocha are builders.

Imo State Governor, Chief Rochas Okorocha, on
Monday declared to run for the presidency under the
platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
In an emphatic statement, the Governor said, “I will
be Nigeria’s President in 2015″.
He made the declaration at a rally organized for him
by the Enugu APC at the Igbozurume Hall, in Emene,
Enugu State.
The Governor said Jonathan is not an Igbo man and
that the PDP-led government had consistently
marginalized the people of the South-East.
According to him, Jonathan is not from the South-
East, the Vice President is not from here, the Sen
President, the Speaker of the House of Reps, the CJN,
the IGP, the security chiefs, none of them is from the
South-East.
“Igbo people have no place in Nigeria, how can we
say that PDP belongs to Ndigbo, Niger Bridge is 419,
Enugu/Onitsha and Port-Hacourt Express way are all
evidence of their hatred for Ndigbo; they don’t
remember the poor, all our leaders in PDP are only
interested in their pockets, they don’t care about our
children’s education.
“We are angry and we said we have to come out; in
Imo State, poor people are happy now, they study
from primary to university without paying penny; our
God passes their God, if what they are doing to poor
people here is good, let them continue but if it is
bad, God will uproot them”.
He continued that, “In 2015, I will be the president
of Nigeria, I have gone to Kaduna, I have gone to
lagos, I am in Enugu today, they are already afraid;
they are now calling for dialogue.
“If they are discussing those contesting for
presidency under the APC, Owelle will be the first,
Buhari and then Kwakwanso; they said it was zoned
to the North, I told our party, when did the meeting
take place? I then also had to meet with my brother
Ngige and we zoned it to Ndigbo.
“APC is an emergency party for new Nigeria, if PDP is
doing well, I won’t have joined APC, when God wants
to do something, he does it from anywhere, it doesn’t
matter whether Nwobodo, Ken, Nwodo, Ekweremadu
are with us or not. I heard that some of them are
boasting of money but tell them that Rochas has
come; any day you hear that PDP brought money
with pick-up, tell me so that I will bring money with
trailer, all these PDP leaders in South-East, if you put
their money together, it is not equal to half of my
money.
“Somebody told me that our party is popular in
Enugu but that there is no money, I have come to
Enugu today, you will see the difference, go back to
your ward and campaign”.
In a remark, Senator Chris Ngige lauded Okorocha,
who he said God had sent to lead Ndigbo in the
battle for freedom, whereas other Igbo leaders were
busy looking for oil well, Special Adviser and the rest
of them.
“We liberated Anambra, Imo is liberated, Ebonyi is
half, Enugu is nailed, we have to remove that nail; we
have to uproot the PDP and free the people.
“We need to put APC governor here in Enugu; before
now, no election takes place in Enugu results were
written in bedroom and hotels, it must stop”.

The day FG involved itself in arranging October 1 bombing was the beginning of an era. Next year my prediction is a Ghana like revolution where young officers will wipe out lots of politicians and help free Nigeria.

Mbaka is a useless fool that went as far as lying that Okorocha gave dud cheque of 50million to Church only for him to be rebuked by Arch bishop of Owerri. Such fool deserves to be hung and his corpse fed to beasts. I pity his vulnerable followers.

letu:
The
same Owaza that Ndoki people said to be part of them, Asa
did not start and end in Owaza it gose beyound and covers a
large area.From your statment it looks your sayin that Ndoki
are also Asa because that has been what i'v know about
them for many years.

Ndoki is not Asa but they are both often referred to as Ukwa people. The West of Ukwa that has boundary with Etche is known as Asa while the East of Ukwa that has boundary with Ibibio is Ndoki. Azumini is Ndoki.

This thread just like every other one of its kind lends credence to my earlier assertions that no single federal road in the South-south and Southeast is good from one end to the other except Owerri/Onitsha road.

letu:
you see way i'v been asking this qustion about the very distinct Asa group, the map you posted lets place it in present day map inwhich what the map you posted will be saying is that for you to travel from Etche to Ikwerre one have to pass through a distinct group know as Asa now if you are familiar with Rivers state if you are, then show/tell me where the are in Rivers state becuse that's where the will be found when the map is compare with a modern day map andalso south of Ngwa land is Ndoki while west is Etche that's modern day Ngwa land and other groups close to Ngwa.

There is distinct Asa homeland which is Ukwa west LGA in Abia State that has boundary with Omuma and Etche in Rivers State, Ugwunagbo and Ukwa East(Ndoki) in Abia while they own farmlands alongside Ndoki and Etche at Obigbo in Rivers State. Asa is very rich in crude oil. Owaza reknowned for their oil wealth is in Asaland.

millionaireman:
Brilliant abagoro Sir,

what has President Jonathan or federal govt of Nigeria got to do with building a gutter less than 1km long in any state to channel a town's flood water to a nearby valley - as needed to be done in Imo state's Orlu?

You can suffer only fools - gladly. 2015 elections are around the corner, liars like you shall lose their jobs - unless steps are taken to address salient issues in Imo state that can make you retain your PA job.

Show us any single road constructed without drainage in Orlu. All the roads have wide and deep drainage. What you wrote about is a flood zone that Yar'adua approved its control through ecological funds but has been abandoned by Jonathan admin. The issue is clear.

phantom:
but the governorhip ticket of the APC was zoned to rivers south east of which oyigbo is a part.
besides if odili from ndoni could become governor,what stops someone else from oyigbo?

I hope it will but judging based on reality, only rigging can make that possible.

ujoinme:
you can switch your user name from Agbaworo to Abagoro to phantom or what ever you like but i know what you are about. you cant live down the fact that gov. Akpabio Achievement has dealt a big blow to the APC narrative. thats why several threads have been created to discredit his achievment and there is a bevy of online action to undermine his achievment including the silly write up you posted on this thread.
Am suprised your principal Okorocha did not make your list , maybe an oversight. lol

Well i can assure you that Akpabio has not started commissioning yet, The two internationally branded hotels Hilton garden inn uyo and Four points by Sheraton is opening its doors january 15, 2015. The 20th anniversarry hospital will be completed by Dec this year and many more are comming. APC ain't seen anything yet.

Akpabio wasted 7 years of highest allocation in Nigeria while majority of the State is without road, water and health care facilities. No massive education campaign to reduce the Ekaette and Akpan syndrome. Building of Uyo major roads and Stadium is making you compare him with a man that came facing security challenges and militancy syndrome. Amaechi has turned Rivers people to businessmen, farmers, academicians etc. and has invested massively in education and health. He constructed much more roads quietly and is still busy with a lot till today. Keep on living in fools paradise.

kayce911:
Plz the roads I mentioned are state roads.frm obigbo bus stop to obigbo round about, afam road to afam power plant. Includin umusaya road

That road is under construction though. Hopefully better pictures will start to appear this dry season. Obigbo is looked down in Port harcourt as a low level town of no importance but people are making billions there.

phantom:
what does this your post mean? abagworo,this post is rubbish!! no apologies!!!

I am as usual writing the bitter truth. Those people will never produce a Governor in Rivers State where their acceptability level is 30%. Especially "Oyigbo".

millionaireman:
Projects? A quality sports stadium built in Orlu was destroyed by Okorocha govt. It started another one. But for nearly three years, work on the new stadium has remained as in these pix below. - no new stadium, no old stadium in Orlu.

As political campaigners exhibit resplendent piksures of completed projects in Owerri for early campaign, count also on use of these too many uncompleted projects in Orlu during the campaign proper.

Tell that to fools. We have more than 30 pictures from Orlu on this thread already and they are mostly finished.

Chidi Nkwopara
FOR the people of Uzoubi, Umuna, Orlu Local Government Area
of Imo State what began as a small season challenge has today
snowballed into a huge disaster.
Trouble began in 1984, when Umusasa, one of the five villages
in Umuna experienced its first flooding. In 1986, the flood
spilled over, destroying farmlands and crops, buildings collapsed,
domestic animals drowned and household furniture were
destroyed.
Today, Umuna has become a pilgrimage centre of sorts where
people go to reflect on the disastrous work of nature. To some
scholars, the community has become an excursion site where
they see and record their findings for the advancement of
knowledge. To yet another group of visitors, the flood site is a
tourist attraction, a seven-day wonder and people are simply
amazed at how residential and commercial buildings were taken
over by flood and their occupants summarily sacked.
Uzoubi, Umuna, is best described as a community in the valley
but presently houses some of the major landmarks associated
with Orlu local council area. Apart from being thickly populated,
this troubled community boasts of the magnificent and soul-
uplifting Saint Joseph’s Catholic Church, the Orie Ugwu and Orlu
International Markets, as well as Evan Enwerem University
Teaching Hospital.
On June 27, 2005, the traditional ruler of the community, Eze
Boniface C. Okereke, the President General, Chief Chris Uzoagba
and Secretary General, Chief Bob Onyeje, sent a letter to one of
their own and the immediate past governor of the state, Chief
Achike Udenwa, titled: “Flood water claims human life in
Uzoubi-Umuna”.
This was their complaint: “The yearly event in Uzoubi-Umuna for
the past 18 years has registered its arrival this year with a claim
of the life of a child of about 12 months. This time, a son of Mr.
Raymond Duruiheoma, a native of Atta in Njaba Local
Government Area, residing at 2, Duruaku Street, Uzoubi-Umuna.
This incident happened 12th June, 2005. Properties lost by the
residents of the said building are estimated in millions of
Naira”.
They also told Udenwa in the said letter that barely two weeks
after another 18-hour torrential rain hit the community, adding
that the additional water over ran the entire community. They
mentioned the worst hit areas as the royal father’s palace,
Duruaku Street, Umusasa Road, Egbunine Street, Nwangaji Street,
Umudiato Road, Ebenator Road, Amaigbo Road, Central School 1
premises, Saint Joseph’s Catholic Church premises and Umuorji
Street.
Explaining how the 12-month old boy died in the flood, the
royal father said: “On this fateful day, the flood was beyond the
control of the dwarf walls, as it pulled down the perimeter wall
and covered all the rooms downstairs at 1 Eze Okereke Road”.
An enraged traditional ruler told Vanguard Metro that “Chief
Udenwa did nothing to ameliorate the plight of his brothers in
Uzoubi-Umuna until he left office”. He recalled with grief how
perimeter fencing of several buildings was pulled down by the
angry flood.
“About 10,000 residential and commercial buildings are
submerged yearly in flood and properties conservatively
estimated at billions of Naira have been lost to the flood. Sheep,
goats, rams, dogs, chickens and other domestic birds were
drowned”, the royal father lamented.
He recalled that the attempt by the past administration to give
access roads to Orlu International Market and the Teaching
Hospital without defined flood discharge points has rendered
many living at the East-end of the International market
homeless. The same poor planning affected the construction
work at Amaigbo Road, hence the over flooding of the Catholic
Church premises and the buildings around it.
Another pathetic aspect of the flood disaster is that of the
primary school built in 1919 by the Catholic Church which is on
the verge of being closed down. If this happens, what is the
fate of the children of school age in this area is the question
begging for answer.
Eze Okereke disclosed that early 2005, FERMA attempted to
rehabilitate the Amaigbo Road but the angry flood sacked them
and the job has remained unattended to till date, despite the
ray of hope ignited in 2009 by the Bureau of Public Procurement
(BPP).
According to a BPP document, BPP/S.1/Vol.VII/09/059, dated
May 21, 2009 and captioned “Certificate of no objection for
award of contract”, the BPP stated: “Having examined your
request and all the documents forwarded confirms that the
project has satisfied all due process requirements for issuance of
no objection for the award of the contract”.
While giving the project name as “construction of Umuna
Erosion Control Works at Orlu Local Government Area of Imo
State”, BPP gave the name of the project contractor and cost as
Messrs C.L.S. Limited and N119,632,175.30 respectively.
The BPP document which was signed by the Director General,
Engr. Emeka M. Ezeh and Engr. Nebolisa O. Emodi, disclosed
that the source of funding is the N120 million under the
Ecological Fund as approved by Mr. President, while the
implementing Ministry/Agency is the National Committee on
Ecological Problems (NCEP)/Anambra-Imo River Basin
Development Authority.
The question now is: When will this project, which was approved
in May 21, 2009, take off? Until the project commences and is
completed, the villagers remain refugees in their land

Millionaire fool stop recycling same thing everytime to spoil our State thread. Umuna is flooded and hss been so before we were all born. The Government is trying to help and the topic has been overflogged. PDP people are recycling old news whose original source is from 2005. Maybe I should also repost the old response I gave. This is one of the dividents of Jonathans government failure to address the plight of Igbos.

Chigold101:
how much do u think it will cost Okorocha torent crowd? What is the proximity betwen Aba & Owerri? How many minutes will it cost APC to mobolize their members from PH? Abegi make una forget APC in igboland...they were DEAD on ARIVAL...

Cant you see from the pictures on the road that they were not rented? People even climbed pole to have a glimpse of the men.

This complex is massive and has every facility including 2 world class training pitches. There is also a games village. Hidden treasure inside New Port harcourt I must say. This is an old aerial picture.

How realer can it get?

It seems Okorocha is even more popular in Aba than the Governor of their state. It seems the PDP media mafia have failed in their bid to stop APC from gaining grounds in Igboland beyond Imo State.

Charlesdonald:
Pls let's help this thread a lot by striving hard to get new pictures around imo state.......so that we can build a great thread of imo state of our choice here in nairaland

Lost my pictures but will do fresh ones soon. I've given pictures of Owerri, Orlu and Oguta and thats barely 3 towns. I gave Nwaorieubi hospital as well.

Ikengawo:
Do you have pictures or locations for the schools and hospitals? Im not trying to discredit him but it seems I only read about them but never seen them except the school and diagnostic hospital in owerri

Needless going in cycles. You and I know the truth and the politics of incompetent but money sharing and deceitful Jonathan being played against Igbos by payed Igbos.

Justcash:
The truth is that most of these things that you call state projects are within the jurisdiction of local government areas. How can you be telling me that in 8 years, Amaechi used over 3 trillion Naira to build flyovers, schools, drainages, scholarships......na wa o.

I was excited when he came up with the monorail idea. Now, where is the monorail? Lagos state is moving on with theirs. He even promised a world standard stadium and a brand new city like Eko Atlantic called some'n like new Portharcourt or so? Where dem dey?

....and mind you, we are only talking of federal government allocations here. Other billion billions in incomes still dey enter as a result of the status of the state as a major oil producing area. WHERE ARE ALL THESE INCOMES GOING TO?

You are uninformed I guess. Everything you wrote there are in place at the moment. The underground sewage of the new city has been competed as well as sandfilling. Bridges have been put in place as well as flyovers where designated. Housing development has not commenced but the sports complex is completed.

There is a difference between business opportunities and development. Portharcourt is a part of Rivers State that is densely populated. So, preference for Portharcourt over Uyo is not surprising. That does not however imply that Rivers state has seen more development in 9 years than Akwa Ibom.
Rivers state have received enough money to develop beyond where it is now. Why is it stagnant? AMAECHI IS STEALING THE MONEY LIKE HIS PREDECESSOR, ODILI.

The best Governors to me are simply Rochas Okorocha and Rauf Aregbesola. My reason is that they met little on ground and have meagre resources to work with but yet achieved a lot.

As for Amaechi and Akpabio they cannot be compared. Eleme is one of the most developed places in Nigeria. Try to visit FTZ and see for yourself. Visit Rainbow town.

This has nothing to do with partisan politics. Clear your mind from bias and look at things with a clear view of the reality on ground.

Governors like Amaechi have responsibilities and should be accountable to the electorates. He needs to be held accountable. Holding him accountable does not mean that one is from another political party.

If you think that Amaechi is not a thief, show me what he has done with the billions that he has controlled for 8 years. Show me, I promise to shut up and apologize if the projects are really worth these billions. SEE MONORAIL, the dude could not complete. Upon all the free money.

I guess you did not know Port Harcourt before Omehia/Amaechi. Rivers State has witnessed so much infrastructural development in all sectors from roads, monorail, schools, drainages, water channels, several long bridges, flyovers, mega farms, international scholarships etc.

Chino take ur Rubbish 2 Anambra thread that have abandoned 4 u and leave this beautiful thread alone, after messing up both Imo and Anambra thread, u have carried ur madness here.

Chino is not vanbonatel. Vanbonattel is a youth corper from another part of Nigeria serving in Imo State who takes delight in spoiling Igbo threads.

This is how a high ranking soldier should be.
