secessionist 're on thier own. just like nzeogwu I'm a nationalist.

Survival in bondage is your life dream.

Prosperity in liberty is the dream of an average Igbo.

Take your blackmail to the birds of the air.

Naija ain't working, never gonna work.

orion7:
ohhh no.


I'm proud igbo.

and I say nooooooooooo to this madness

Fake Igbo.


Go kneel down before Alhaji Gambari.

That's a step to industrialization of a state.


A wreck in the east specialized in wasting the money of his state on how to make his son-in-law succeed him as governor.

As for Okorocha as senator of his Imo West senatorial zone which he grossly underdeveloped in his plot for political dynasty, neva gonna happen.
Any other talk?

Okorocha planed political dynasty in Imo state now cries about undemocratic methods.


To bribe people of Owerri zone to effect his political dynasty plan, Okorocha did nearly all his government's development efforts on Owerri zone but used his Orlu zone as footmat, towns and local government areas in Orlu zone deteriorated.

NaijaRoyalty:
Fani-Kayode was reacting to a 24-second video clip culled from Channels Television where the governor was caught lamenting and almost “crying” over an alleged militarization of 2019 general elections in his state.

Referring to him as Judas, the PDP chieftain said Okorocha was one of the powerful founding members of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC), as such he shouldn’t be complaining.


He wrote on his Facebook page: “Listen to this useful idiot and accursed slave speaking against those he helped put in power.

“He is the Judas of the east and one of the three biggest traitors of the south. May the Lord pay him according to his works.”

If Okorocha had also developed Orlu, even half as he did in Owerri, but he rather stifled the govt development projects in Orlu.
He believed that he could co-opt Owerri into his political dynasty business.

Ofuzo:
You guys keep saying udenwa build this and enwerem build that, but, where are those things now? I don't see anything each and everytime I go home. You see, the problems are so vast, it's impossible for one man to sit in the governors office seat in the state capital and start developing the entire state including it's other cities. It's really a joke to think that, that's doable.

Now, it's possible for nigerian state governors to build roads here and there. But, you have to consider that, only maybe 1% of imo state roads have been tarred. Yes 1%. If imo state, was in a western country, all the roads where you have human habitation would have been tarred. That will be tantamount to tarring all roads in all our villages and cities, and I mean, every single one of them.

We MUST change our mindset to make progress or there won't be any progress till thy kingdom come.

You asked for things ex governor Udenwa built.
They include:
Imo state government Secretariat Owerri.

New markets in Owerri.

First Expansion of Owerri to now New Owerri.

Sustained the multi million dollars Owerri regional surface water supply system.

Completion of the multi million dollars Okigwe Surface Water Supply Project started by gov Mbakwe.

Too many inter-local government and Inter-state state roads.


Imo state University Teaching Hospital, Orlu.

Imo International Market Orlu.

A housing estate in Okporo Orlu to have accommodated staff of Imo state university teaching hospital.

Construction of too many urban roads in Owerri, Okigwe and Orlu.

Too many public water boreholes across Imo state.


But today, only the projects of Udenwa in Owerri have been sustained by his successors. Udenwa's successors could not sustain the all important water supply systems of Okigwe and Owerri.

Ofuzo:
Some of you are unbelievable. I'm shocked that my little attempt to educate you folks on the way forward for nigerian cities fell on deaf ears. Don't tell me you're dumb enough to think that orlu will be paradise because of ihedioha?? Well don't be shocked four years from now that orlu will look exactly the same way it did for the last fourty years.

Damn.

Govts set the stage for a locality to emerge as modern town or city.
If govt did not provide Owerri regional water supply system in the 1980s, did not locate universities, etc in Owerri, the town of Owerri would not grow 1/10th of what it's today, despite being state capital.


Okorocha concentrated from in developing of Owerri where Mbakwe, Enwerem, Udenwa stopped in building infrastructures in Owerri, alienating Orlu and Okigwe areas.

If Ihedioha who emerged governor largely because of equity, refuses to provide water supply, tertiary education institutions etc in Orlu zone, infrastructures that have for long been taken for granted in Owerri zone, he ought to know what the immediate consequences shall be.


Yes, Urban towns, Cities and LGAs are supposed to generate their incomes to develop their localities.

But in Imo state, we have an absurd situation where state governors collect the allocations of LGAs and the state, use part of the allocations on lavishing building infrastructures in the state capital, scratch a few roads and market stalls and roundabouts outside the state capital, then pocket much of the rest.
People of the state capital and paid sycophants of the governor sing praises of the governor.

If Ihedioha as governor goes parochial as many of you suspect he may, he can easily be removed from office.

The three LGAs of Mbaise can't withstand the wrath of rest of Imo state against a parochial gov Ihedioha.

Remember, it's only this time that rest of Owerri outside Mbaise voted massively for Ihedioha.

Every act of Okorocha and Nwosu in political office is geared to enhance their private business interests. Look deeper

kahal29:
Imo State Governor Rochas Okorocha has declared his son-in-law and candidate of the Action Alliance (AA), Uche Nwosu won Saturday’s governorship election in the state.

“I say so because going by the actual calculation, the person that won this election is Ugwumba Uche Nwosu.

“Uche Nwosu won the election landslide, if you remove the manipulation results from Mbaise, Uche Nwosu won with over 50,000 votes, if you cannot declare him a winner because you have someone already, then they should go for a rerun because you cannot change the Constitution if the Federal Republic of Nigeria because you want to favour a candidate,” he insisted.

He said Nwosu was rigged out of victory by the Governor-elect Emeka Ihedioha in connivance with Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) Professor Francis Ezeonu.

He accused Ezeonu of working for PDP, saying he wrecked democracy with his complicity in alleged electoral manipulations.

According to him: “The REC has shown he was brought to Imo after the 2015 election to return PDP to power in the state.

“The REC had acted illegally by ignoring the provision of the Constitution that makes it mandatory for a candidate to have 25 percent in 2/3 of the Local Governments in the State by announcing the PDP candidate, Emeka Ihedioha who only met the requirement in 9 Local Governments instead of 18 LGAs which is 2/3 of 27 LGAs winner.”

Okorocha also wondered why the REC should accept the outrageous figures from the three Local Governments Areas of Aboh Mbaise, Ahiazu Mbaise and Ezinihitte where the PDP candidate got 64,219 votes from Aboh Mbaise alone.

He stated the figures from the three LGAs constituted 50 percent of the total votes got by the PDP candidate in the State with 27 LGAs.

“In the course of this manipulation, we all observed that the REC decided not to use the collation officers from Federal University of Technology Owerri (FUTO), which he disbanded for reasons he gave that they have met with politicians.

“Again, he brought some people whom he introduced from the University of Agriculture Umudike.

“They arrived just a night before the election date and we thought we have gotten the collation officers. Again, those ones were disbanded on the same reason that they have met with politicians, I wonder how this is possible having arrived the state after midnight on the election eve.

“Now the REC went to his own University in Awka to bring in collation officers.

“We believed him not knowing that he brought people he has been training for a hatched job for some weeks now in Anambra State to come and carry out this injustice in Imo State.

“These men arrived with heavy security from Anambra and went straight to the various Local Governments.

“We never knew that these were relatives of the PDP candidate and from the same Local Government. These are relatives of the PDP Candidate who were already briefed of what to do.

“This explains the over voting witnessed in Mbaise. Out of the 270,000 votes that he scored, 50 percent of it or over 130,000 all came from just three local governments of Mbaise”, he stated.

He added “As far as I am concerned and we still maintain that REC has wrecked democracy in Imo State. Unfortunately for them, they were not smart enough to know that section 179 requires you to have a spread at least in 2/3 of the local governments before you can be declared a winner.

“They ended up with only 9 local governments instead of 18 required by law. The Returning Officer was advised by all the Senior Staff of INEC against declaring a winner without looking at the Constitution.

“This man in a hurry decided to announce the result against the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“This is wrong, in doing so, the Returning Officer didn’t even consider the results cancelled, total voters cancelled in the different Polling Booths, was enough to declare the election inconclusive as the difference between the PDP and AA would have called for a supplementary election. With the speed with which he announced the result tells you that the man is part of the game. This again is unacceptable to all of us,” he said.

Okorocha Rochas, you rigged yourself out of your Third term plot and holding political office, because you are a most insensitive governor.

Your plan to suck up people of Owerri zone into your political dynasty plan in Igbo land failed.

Owerri zone rejected the plot.


Your plot involved frequently telling Imo people that you are "building our dear state capital city" to mega city.

You abandoned rest of Imo state to decay.

You suffocated existing government development projects in your Orlu zone because of your private business interests.

B2mario:
Help us and tell the rant.

Worse is that you don't even know the meaning of rant, considering the context you used rant here.

Your Okorocha in political leadership shall soon be in the history books.

Smart Alecs encouraged Okorocha to build Owerri to mega city in a wham, that future governors shall attend to Orlu and other parts of Imo state.
Okorocha agreed without understanding it was wrong.

Orlu decayed.


Little minds like you come here to display Okorocha's development of Owerri, as if Owerri is Imo state.

searchlight:
they are just trying to revive okorocha politically. he will go to court and claim his mandate (stollen or deserved) and then feel like a winner again. where the the REC declared the result, inec office or okorochas house?

So if they make you a Returning officer, a contestant forged numbers of votes, you declare him winner and ask other contestants to go to court?
Why then did they employ you as an umpire for the election?

The Returning officer saw the fraud, asked to be left to report to his superior at hqs. He was refused, and forced to announce the forged figures. But before he announced the result he said he was under duress to announce the result, thereby first tactically declared the result null, void and of no effect.

searchlight:
in as much as I am not a fan of Okoroawusa he is righ on this one. everyone who fill the election was rigged to go to tribunal and inec has no power to withhold any persons cert. ones declared a winner. as for the undemocratic and unconstitutional nature of inec action as raise by okorocha it is no longer a news to the smart minds that APC is a threat to Democracy okoroawausa included. patiently waiting for tinubu and Amaechi to cry same in no distant time

The constitution was drawn by humans.
The umpire to the election said he was forced to announce a result, that sealed it.

Humans are superior to what they made.

If you conduct the same senatorial election 100 times, Okorocha Rochas can not win.

Okorocha Rochas does not deserve to represent his zone in the senate.


Okorocha set development of his Imo West senatorial zone - Orlu - many decades backwards, even suffocated existing govt development projects in the zone because of his private business interests.

Okorocha concentrated on what he frequently calls: "I am building our dear state capital city" to international standard - as if he had ever seen a city of international standard without pipe borne water.
He merely wanted to buy the political class in Owerri zone to get into his political dynasty plan in Imo state, and by extension, in Igbo land.

But he was failed in Owerri zone

This is the road to the Imo state university teaching hospital, Orlu. It has been like this since seven years.
Okorocha and Nwosu rebuilt the roads and gate to Owerri campus of IMSU.

The second photo is the Imo state Fire Service station in Orlu since seven years.
Okorocha and Nwosu built a new fire Service station in Owerri, after demolishing the modern structures of Imo state Fire Service in Owerri.

ngadaAwo:



God used Oshiomole for a good thing

chaiiiii politics ntorrr

Oshionwhole was God-sent.

At times, too, one can accept that president Buhari doesn't meddle onto the affairs of the states.

Okorocha's only game plan was that Buhari shall impose Okorocha's son-in-law as next governor of Imo state.

As gov Okorocha and his son-in-law, Uche Nwosu, built statues to further decorate the state capital,

here are the road to the Imo state University teaching hospital in Orlu, and the Imo state Fire Service station in Orlu since seven years.

Where are Abagworo and Sam Onwuemeodo for Jeese sake?

These two men led Okorocha and Nwosu to political oblivion.

Village man governor Okorocha who frequently said he was "building our dear capital city' to Mega city, as if he had ever seen a Mega City without pipe borne water.

Village man Uche Nwosu who publicly acclaimed that he is the architect of Owerri Urban renewal, but watched as towns and LGAs in his home senatorial zone decayed, were threatened by rain floods to extinction owing to uncompleted urban drainage project.

IBERIBERISM governor who abandoned towns and LGAs in his home senatorial zone to decay, even suffocated all the government development infrastructures in the zone to near comatose state

And where is Abagworo, the Owerri Mega City man of Uche Nwosu, the architect of Owerri Urban renewal?

It wasn't funny watching crowds destroy the photos of Uche Nwosu along the well lit boulevards of Owerri yesterday night.

Okorocha kept on narrating to us that he was "Building our dear state capital city" to Mega City standards.

Both undermined development in Orlu.

Congrats to Hon Emeka Ihedioha.

Let's watch how Ihedioha can lift Imo state from the list of states with only one modern city.

Today, Okorocha and Nwosu are like,

how come;

what happened?

This is Imo state government Fire Service station in Orlu established many decades ago to protect people of the LGAs, including Uche Nwosu and Okorocha LGAs in Orlu zone against emergency.

Nwosu the architect of Owerri Urban renewal watched this fire station dilapidated for eight years.


Owerri urban renewal entailed demolition of the modern structures of Imo state Fire Service station along Mbaise road, and building of a new fire Service station along Okigwe road in Owerri.

Okorocha and Nwosu came back to their Orlu zone to ask for votes for Third term for gov Okorocha.


Define IBERIBERISM.

It was kill joy watching the crowd destroy Uche Nwosu's photos along the broadways of Owerri last night.

Nwosu claimed he is the architect of Owerri Urban renewal with eight lane streets, as he and his father-in-law governor watched for eight years as this main street to Imo state University teaching hospital Orlu remains dilapidated.

Rochas Okorocha and Uche Nwosu, bye.


Okorocha is from Ideato South LGA near Orlu says he is "building our dear state capital City"



Uche Nwosu from Nkwerre near Orlu claims that he is the architect of Owerri Urban renewal.

Both abandoned Orlu to rot for eight years, even suffocated the govt development projects they met in Orlu.


But the only major roads leading to Ideato and Nkwerre were reconstructed by Udenwa from Orlu, after the roads were abandoned for more than thirty years, and were nicknamed: "man's inhumanity to man."


Orlu has outlived both Okorocha and Nwosu.

Uche Nwosu and Rochas Okorocha bye.

Imolites destroy Rochas’s Son-in-law, Uche Nwosu’s billboard in Imo State as INEC is set to declare PDP’s Ihedioha winner of the governorship election.

ZENITHNAIJA also learnt the people of Owerri, are currently sweeping Douglas road, a major road that leads to the Douglas house (IMO State Government House)

madridguy:
When PMB was building name, they were stealing to build mansions.
Now dat they need name, wealth becomes useless.

LESSON TO LEARN.

PMB building name?



Buhari shall go down in history as the man who arrested Nigeria's unity and development
right from the 1970s as Petroleum minister with allegations of missing £2.8 against him, to the 1983 Buhari robbing of democracy,

to the present day ethnoreligious biased leadership style, and alas, presiding during a most sham election ever conducted in Nigeria. Four days after, elections are still going on to make Buhari win.

Buhari good name is for Almajiris.

So Buhari and Yakubu are still doing their most ridiculous election?

Boring.
Just waking up from sleep.

Incompetence redefined.

OkaNaUbe:
It is foolhardy for some Benue indigenes to vote a Party or President that has tactically supported herdsmen killings and wanted to grab their lands for ranch.

Fulani and TIV are nearly the same.


Munchi is the hybrid of the two.

Benue has always voted Fulani, even if Fulani herdsmen are decimating Benue people.

Atiku may be seen by Benue people as lesser Fulani.

hamzyluv:
IS ATIKU NIT A FULANI MAN AGAIN ? .. I don't understand this FFK ... Are u related to Namdi Kanu .

Only in Nigeria grounded by ethnicity.


Go to the USA and divide California and other huge southern US states into six New states each,
but divide other smaller northern US states into two New states each....

Then 25% votes must be won in 2/3 of the number of US States before a US presidential candidate can win presidential election.

Use quota system.

Then US central govt gets revenues from all the US states and share to the States.

That day any soldier created this type of political structure is the day the US must break into pieces to many new countries.

But that's like what northern Nigeria soldiers created in Nigeria's political structure and govt system beginning 1967 to 1996 as they created twenty states in one northern region, but created 17 states in the southern regions.

Fulani which controls much of Northern region thus draws excess political representation from the northern states to spit fire and decide what can be in Nigeria.

Southern politicians allow the 20 undue states sewed like seeds in the once one northern region by northern soldiers to continue to be since 1996,


without insisting that the rogue political structure be restructured democratically till now.
.

Northern political class therefor grabs political power at will through the lopsided political structure.

Land mass or population is never used as yardstick to create new political units in a country formed by diverse regions.

There should have been more States in the southern regions than in the northern region of Nigeria.

Abagworo:
Meanwhile Okorocha was seen on the streets of Orlu with the people hailing him in full ecstacy over his victory at the polls.

Lol.

Did gov Okorocha start today to spread bags of money to unemployed youths to sing his praises in Imo state?

Rent a crowd.

Qsscruz:
Which surprises? Dont tell me you believe these results to be a true reflection of the will of the people..This is Naija..Everything you see actually a true reflection of the highest bidder..This country has been auctioned..

The courts can't be blind as well.
This proclamation of Rochas Okorocha as senator may be the most scandalous thing in this year's election.

A free and fair election wouldn't produce Okorocha as the fourth runner up here.
