Whichever way I don't care. What I need is the person that will work for my people and my state. I am not a follower of party.
I love:
Goodluck Jonathan
Rochas Okorocha
Chris Ngige
Enyinnaya Abaribe
Ike Ekweremadu
Uche Ogah
Dave Umahi
Okezie Ikpeazu
Syllevan Chime
Peter Obi
Chibuike Amaechi

I don't mind the party they belong to or they will belong tomorrow. Nigerians should grow beyond party sentiment, our politicians are after the party that will give them or make them what they want.

Look at what is happening in Edo state today where the reverse of 2016 gubernatorial election is the case. What was the party of Obaseke?

Anambra is not interested in big names, they already have many of that. Anambra is interested in good governance and their is a chance that if Soludo becomes Governor, he will switch his attention to power at the centre by decamping to APC or PDP, thereby derailing everything just like Okorocha who ended messing Imo state up after starting well when he was in APGA
Guy, Okorocha did not mess any Imo state up, you people should stop spreading falsehood here.

I don't know why Anambra people criticize Rochas more than even Imo people themselves. Is there any political motivation behind it?

No matter the neglect and destruction of things in Imo state by the immediate past administrative, watch the below videos and see the hand of Rochas. Had it been that Rochas ruled Anambra state, today he will be seen and praised like god. Criticize Obiano to speed up his works and clean up Anambra instead of you criticizing other states that are better.

It’s frightening what has been going on in Imo state.
A state governor spent the state’s funds to build development projects. The next governor kills the projects because either the projects are not built in his home area, or the projects are not completed, or not done appropriately.

Imo state is unique in this.

University built with IMSG funds in Ideato is wasting because it’s not built in state capital area.

Owerri-Orlu dualized express road nearly completed by Okorocha government was demoted and destroyed by Ihedioha government to narrow single lane highway.
Are you sure of the bolded this man?
The only thing I know Ihedioha did was the scrapping of Dee Sam Mbakwe road, the attempted demolition of Akachi tower, the demolition of freedom square water fountain, the removal of the fancy overhead street lights and the closing of the newly established higher institutions.

Okorocha launches state airline [PHOTOS]
01/24/2017 | ECE-AUTO-GEN | MONJOLA SOTUBO

Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha launches Imo Air on January 24, 2017.
Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha launches Imo Air on January 24, 2017.
The first “Imo Air” flight landed at the Sam Mbakwe Cargo Airport in Owerri on Tuesday, January 24.

Imo state governor,

The airline is currently being operated on the government’s behalf by Dana Air because the state does not have the license to operate a full – blown airline yet.

“This is a happy moment in the State. The aim of going into the Air business is because I want to drive traffic to Imo State as Imo is genuinely becoming the fastest developing City outside Abuja and Lagos,” Okorocha said.

“For this, there is need for more airlines to cushion the effects of high traffic coming to the State. Imo government does not have an operating air license. So we needed to partner with a good and qualified airline operator.


“Hence, the choice of DANA Air because of its proven track record and sincerity of purpose. The Imo Air will be operated by DANA and we have a contract of ten years with them. We have five of this aircraft and the first one has just landed and four other ones will start operation in few weeks time.

“The International Cargo Airport will soon kick-start to supplement the efforts of Imo Air. In our pursuit of making Imo better, Imo International Cargo Airport will soon commence operations. Work is going on smoothly and by April God’s willing the fastest International Cargo Plane will arrive Imo State.

“This, we believe will help drive up commercial activities in the State. Imo is a hub for business and there is no better place to invest now in Nigeria than Imo State as inspite of the recession the State is still flourishing and progressing because of its visionary leadership," he added.


Okorocha also said that Imo Air will offer 10% discount to all Imo indigenes and would employ Imo sons and daughters to make up 30% of its staff.

With all the noise and fanfare then where's imo airline that okoroawusa wasted resources on? Where are the jets? 8yrs down the line, there's obviously nothing to show in terms of development anywhere in Imo state. Ndi Imo eri go unu. Useless old vagabond called abagworo should come and explain further.
It has been established by law. It is left for private sector to indicate interest and take over.

I believe most imolites here have read about the new Administration of Criminal Bill Law signed by your governor. This law is un-democratic, violates some sections of our constitution and human rights, and doesn’t promote an enabling environment for real investment. This is tyrannical and must be repealed!

But what’s the need of Owerri was capital of this Umuahia was capital of that?

What is important is level of urbanization in every town before and now.

Calabar was the first capital of Nigeria. Not even a foolish Calabar man can now come out to say: because Calabar was capital of Nigeria, therefore Calabar must be made by government to have all development institutions in Nigeria, get all government patronage, while rest of Nigeria waits.
This is the impression our bros from Owerri drop here.
stop insulting people. Why should you use foolish for Calabar man?

The funniest thing about Internet is that exposed the ignorance of the goons. The administrative headquarters of protectorates, northern and southern, were Lokoja and Calabar without Lagos Colony. When northern and southern protectorates were amalgamated, Lagos assumed the headquarter of the amalgamated protectorates. Enugu only became capital of eastern region due to large presence and economic interest of colonialists due to coal mine in Enugu. The only time Umuahia became administrative headquarter of Eastern region was during the war which Owerri also served as administrative headquarter. Again Calabar was only the administrative of the southern protectorate not eastern region.
Stop disgracing yourself. Umuahia was the second capital of eastern Nigeria and the capital of Owerri province. Lokoja was not the capital of northern protectorate it was only the administrative center of the British Royal company before the British government established protectorates and direct rule. The administrative capital of northern protectorate was Zengeru in the present Niger state before the regional capital was moved to Kaduna.

At the time of the protectorates, Nigeria had only 3 colonies i.e Lagos, northern and southern protectorates which had their capitals in Lagos, Zengeru and Calabar respectively. Go and look for Nigerian map as at 1953.

Brother, don't mind the guy just advise him to go and read his history very well. Umuahia was the second capital of old eastern region and the capital of Owerri province. We have only 6 province in the eastern region i.e
Province: capital/headquarter
1. Calabar: Calabar
2. Cameroon: -
3. Ogoja: Abakiliki
4. Onitsha: Enugu
5. Owerri: Umuahia

Above is a display of stack ignorance. Please stay with your knowledge base and do not punch above your weight class. Umuahia could not even displace Uzoakoli as the headquarter of Bende Division talk less of being capital of Owerri province. By the way, old Owerri province comprised the defunct Imo and Rivers States. Everything under Rivers province was part of Owerri province before Rivers province was created. Owerri was not only a province but a division in Owerri province. Enugu which became capital of eastern region was not even division.

Edit
The Eastern Region was an administrative region in Nigeria, dating back originally from the division of the colony Southern Nigeria in 1954. Its first capital was Calabar. The capital was later moved to Enugu and the second capital was Umuahia. The region was officially divided in 1967 into three new states, the East-Central State, Rivers State and South-Eastern State. East-Central State had its capital at Enugu, which is now part of Enugu State.[1]

Umuahia was literally a backwater until Dr. M. I. Okpara, then premier of eastern region, flooded Umuahia with industries. The fact that few industries were cited in Umuahia does not indicated Umuahia was more urbanized than Owerri. Owerri as provincial headquarter saw a more measured urbanization than Umuahia.
Guy stop saying what you don't know, Umuahia was the capital (headquarter) of Owerri province that comprised of old imo state and was more industrialized and was almost at the same urbanization level with Owerri. Aba was the largest town in the province in particular and in the east in general.

Christistruth00:
It was the Ooni of Ife that had to approve the selection of the Oba of Benin and all Yoruba Obas even till today.

All beaded Crowned Obas are descendants of and are authorised by the Ooni of Ife.

The Oba of Benin wears a beaded Crown from Ile Ife.
This is my first time of seeing this history. But based on the write-up, the Portuguese was definitely referring to someone from the Igboland based on the name of the person, direction of the place of the person and the mentioning of moon as count of days. You and I know that before now Igbos count their days, month and year using the moon. Even the months in Igbo are regarded as/taken from the moon (owa).

But I fear the Yorubas, you people can twist history, and you make U-turns in order to suit what you believe in. I will not be surprised to hear tomorrow that in the past you counted your days, months and years using moon �.

Truth be told, you and I know that you shaped your history using some elements of Igbo and Benin culture and history.

Atigba:
Ezechima, Akalaka are Idu children in Igodomigodo they are not Igbo. Igbo mean slave in our language and there are those we address as such.

Until you come back home, your ancestral home Idu. You will be rejected from every corner by the Ikwerre, Ekpeye, Etche, Ndoni, Anioma, Ika, Igbanke etc.

These ethnic nationalities I mentioned above are already awaken about their Idu ancestry and you will never have access to them with your fake history.They continue to reject you and your Biafra will never come.
Whatever Igbon means in your language is totally different from the actual meaning of Igbo in Igbo language. Two different words may look alike but will definitely mean different things in different languages just like ndi in Igbo and nde in Ibibio,
Chika in Igbo and Chika in Hausa,
Adili in Igbo and Adili in Fulani,
oluku in Igbo and olukumi in Yoruba,
Jide in Igbo and Jide in Yoruba
Ojo in Igbo and Ojo in Yoruba
Ayo (Ayiyo) in Igbo and Ayo in Yoruba,
Amanda in Igbo and Armanda in Spanish
Efe in Igbo and Efe in Edo
Ola in Igbo and Ola in Yoruba
Olu in Igbo and Olu in warri and Yoruba
Ekiti/etiti in Igbo and Ekiti in Yoruba
Ebele in Igbo and Ebele in ijaw
Ga'ari a in Igbo and gari in Hausa
Akwana in Igbo and Kwana in Hausa
Wawa in Igbo and Wawa in Hausa
Ichi in Igbo and itch in English
Echi in Igbo and etch in English
Guta in Igbo and gutte in German
Ato in Igbo and actor in English
Meta in Igbo and meta in English (origin: Greek)
Igbo in Igbo and Igbo in Yoruba
Achi in Igbo and Arch in English
Aki in Igbo and Akin in Yoruba/English
Apeti in Igbo and Apetitte in English
Chikasoro in Igbo and Chikasoro in Hausa
Ala in Igbo and ala in Jukun
Iwu in Igbo and Iwo in Yoruba
Chi in Igbo and inch in English
Aro in Igbo and Arrow in English
Ero in Igbo and Error in English etc.

So Igbo and Igbon are two different words in two different languages. A word might mean a particular thing in your language but totally different in another man's language and the pronunciation might equally be different or a bit similar. The Igbo word in Yoruba language means forest which is somehow similar to the meaning in Igbo language depicting people from the forest as Igbo people are known to be occupying a rainforest zone of southeastern Nigeria.

Oyibo people did not corrupt any Igbon to form Igbo rather they corrupted the original name, Igbo to be ibo, eebo, heebo and hebo.

Igbo lived more than 2,000year before the formation of Benin kingdom and evidence could be seen in the population of the people in relation to their small land. If Benin people is as old as you claim, by now they should be having more than 4 Local government or better still a state or two from their land. Benin is one of the youngest ethnic groups in southern Nigeria while based on archeological finding, Igbo is one of the oldest black nation in the whole of Africa.

That is why our grand parents still call any black person they see on TV "onye Igbo"
Our grandparents believed that whoever that is black is onye Igbo that's why whenever you tell them story of a person they will ask, o wu onye Igbo ka o wu onye ocha.

They believed that God created just two races, the whites (ndi ocha) and the blacks (ndi Igbo). Igbo can equally be used to describe colour.
