shukuokukobambi:
I guess you don't need to worry about Ararume after all. He has been dropped by INEC and Amuchie has replaced him as APGA candidate.

where did you get this info?

mandax:
Rochas Okorocha governed Owerri. Is there no one in Imo who doesn't see that?
So it's truly the turn of Orlu zone to present governor.

it is no ones fault if okorocha(orlu zone) focused on owerri with mediocre infrastructure so saying it us truly another turn for same orlu zone is pure fantasy...go and hold rochas responsible for whatever neglect you feel he inflicted in his own zone

globemoney:
Rochas is mentally challenged. All the roads in owerri are in bad state and yet he wants to handover to his in law after buying up the entire state with the same in law.
Anyway APGA is coming to rescue the state

you think ararume is better?

Amadioha01:
Wait what? � Is Oguta this Divergent � I was of the assumption that all dialects in Imo state aren't that different. Someone should please educate me on The Oguta dialect, their relations with their neighbors especially the Ukwuani's in Delta and the Ndoni in rivers. Including other groups in Imo.

oguta's dialect is more related to the other dialects across the river in delta state..a typical oguta man cannot converse in igbo to a typical mbaise man

Now that it is official, watch how quickly Nigerians switch allegiance.

Abagworo in Uzodinma's political rally? Erase the word "impossible" in your lexicon when talking about politics in Nigeria.

To those mocking Rochas, stay calm. He probably has looted enough for even his generations unborn. He ain't hurting. They will find a way to rehabilitate/compensate him if APC wins. Don't ever go hunting with a Nigerian politician. But if you do, ensure that you are the one holding the gun.

okorocha should pray that ararume does not win in imo and pdp win in presidential

toni4691:
The Igbos will never learn. Instead of some Igbo politicians to follow Buhari while some follow Atiku and wait for next year's outcome of the presidential election. Our brothers in the south south are doing the same as those in the south west.

We have to lean towards both candidates so that we can't lose if any won.

What of if Buhari wins?

there are igbo politicians following those two so i dont know what you are saying here

technicallyrich:
boy the leaders of ss has spoken.ijaws have said it several times ss will join biafra.
The word biafra is an ijaw word and the bight of biafra is in ijaw land.
You already claim western ,you can join those oyoroba fols in their cursed oduduwaka cowardice republic.
If you are from ss and se automatically you are a biafran or you will be charged for treason and executed when biafra comes.

lekwa foolish talk

4601CE:
Dude! What are you saying ?
The primary election was conducted two times and Nwosu won on both occasion . So what are you saying
Why are you defending injustice and nonsense ?

the one conducted by gulak was won by nwosu??

slap1:
Shut up. He has defected to SDP, where he will fail like the fool he is.

this hasn't been officially confirmed now

Wealthyone:
Looking at those kids....they look like him except the girl who look like d mother.

especially the oldest looking kid

the oldest child from this pic looks like him though

latsy:
Okorocha will sabotage APC in IMO if his son-inlaw doesn't get that ticket.

well that seems to be a win win for imo

B2mario:
His comment is as true as the truth itself. You should stop these rubbish display of falsehood in nairaland.[b] Rochas remain the best governor in SE [/b]while Enugu, [b]Owerri [/b]and Umuahia still remain the best cities in the SE.

please keep quiet

jomonic:
Imo is in for a long thing. [b]Okorocha factor on APC [/b]front and Ararume on the APGA front. Then in PDP we have Ihedioha. The journey is far. Just like the man who was on top of a tree planning to jump down and behold a lion on the ground.

he actually lost out hence the rented crowd you are seeing

Abagworo:
OKOROCHA has been under undue attack by a gang up of Igbo political leaders in all political parties simply because they know he's the only one trusted enough by other Nigerians as detribalized and nationally acceptable to become President. All the other stories are made up to justify the gang up but in the end Igbos have little voting strength to influence an all Igbo presidential race in which Okorocha is involved.

smh

Adakintroy:
Boils down to Jose how? Are you looking at your competition at all or you still think the premiership revolves around you alone. Morhino stI'll plays football the way morhino still plays. The only thing is that many of you fail to see that other teams have gotten stronger. They have better managers. In what universe will Guardiola be coaching a man city. Mancity!.. Noisy neighbour's! In what world will Mancity be forking out 60, 70 Million for players. Eh?

In what world will man city be favourite to sign a top player ahead of united? The footballing ecosystem has change. Find a new evolutionary tactics or end up like a ac. Milan.

quite some younger people now watching footie do not seem to realize that just 15 years ago milan was a big club feared in europe

speedyGonzales:
I get where he is coming from the guy is not as prolific as man utd's previous player and the is just him, when in the past united had at-least 3 separate very good strikers

at a time andy cole,yorke,solskjaer and sherringham

mandax:
Nearly every income to Imo state government now goes to Abuja APC officials to lobby for Uche Nwosu guber ticket.

Who is talking of Chinese investors coming to Imo state now?

hasn't the uche nwosu and uzodinma issue being resolved?

BiafraIShere:
SMH, what finished Imo state please? You also asked how they arrived at Owerri being over 1 million??

You are doing yourself!!

explain what you mean?

apc-uche nwosu

pdp-ihedioha

[FILE PHOTO] Owerri, Imo state

The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, yesterday performed the ground breaking of a 5,000 barrel per day (bpd) capacity modular refinery at Ibegwe Flow Station in Ohaji Local Council of Imo State to boost local content and enhance production of petroleum products.
According to him, the facility is to commence production in 18 months and would supply crude to dedicated storage tanks.

At the event graced by captains of industry, including senators Mohammed Dagash and Florence Ita-Giwa, Kachikwu expressed concerns over the future of the nation’s oil sector, disclosing that the President Muhammadu Buhari administration was committed to resuscitating the four refineries.


The oil installation, he noted, was to create employment opportunities for the youths and end militancy in the Niger Delta.

Commending the Waltersmith Refining and Petrochemical Company for identifying with the vision of the government, the minister said the modular refineries nationwide were designed to reduce importation of petroleum products.

Its chairman/chief executive officer, Abdulrazaq Isa, described the event as remarkable, stating that the feat had signalled the entry of the firm into the downstream petroleum sector, which according to him, was part of its vision to becoming a fully integrated energy company determined to contribute meaningfully to Nigeria’s energy security and sustainable programme.

He disclosed that the refinery was the first phase of a larger development, adding that plans were underway to increase its capacity by 30,000bpd to process additional products, including petrol (PMS) and jet fuel.

The Executive Secretary of Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB), Simbi Wabote, expressed joy that 10 per cent of local content would be provided by the facility.

Also yesterday, the 6 Division of the Nigerian Army, Port Harcourt said it had uncovered an illegal oil depot, in Rivers State and impounded 16 trucks.

owerri more than 1 million?i wonder how they arrived at that though

basilo101:
Sullivan was mayor of Enugu city. Gburugburu is governor of Enugu state

kindly elaborate further

another rochas classic

NORSIYK:
Okorocha and uche nwosu are goners

why do you say so? I though izunaso and ararume camp defected to apga sometime ago? so who is still in apc to challenge rochas machinery?

lonelydora:
Even though i don't know you or what you can do Mr. Tonye Cole, but Mr. Wike aka Mr. Project has done marvelously well in Rivers state.

Name it, from Roads to Education to Health to Security. The only problem Wike has for now is the number of touts in all nooks and crannies of Rivers state extorting motorists and business men and women with tickets.

surely that affects the business minded men and traders in the state

DrholuwaTOBI:
We should stop complaining over bad leaders at this moment, but we should begin to pray for this country.

God help us in this country!

Incredibleme:
Are you serious? This looks like a rural muddy road. It's hard to believe it's a bridge built with concrete.

lol you think when people criticize rochas constructions that they are joking? The man is clueless when it comes to construction
