Basically you guys are saying he should not spend money simply because others are embezzling funds. The truth is this, even if he decides to build just schools, people who want to steal would simply either take the contracts to build, or award the contracts to the guy with the highest kickback rates, resulting in substandard products all over again. Maybe when the citizens value education, the government would be forced to develop schools. Meanwhile he should help those willing few.

As for the possibility of running away, I am sure you guys don't think he is that stupid as not to protect his investments. They must have signed some binding contract. Maybe, Just maybe if we stopped criticizing every move made, we may encourage people to do good.

Anything good in him sending people to USA and on 7000$$ allowance, [b]while our schools and training centres in Nigeria are left in ruins?[/b]
I Doubt if it is Okorocha's duty to help the Federal government restructure the educational sector. He is doing what he can (within the limits of his Jurisdiction). As for the $7000, it sure seems like a lot when you consider the total sum, however, if the state would send them abroad for 6 months, the state should also cater for them. I am not sure $7000 is not too much, however I still think it is a good plan.

@Poster:
Usually, I enjoy reading posts and all without commenting. In this case, I felt your biased post needed a response.

Why is it that when people are trying to make things better the only thing you see is an ill motive? I think the fact that he is spending state resources on students from the state to grant them an opportunity to see things is a wise thing.

Okorocha may not be a saint, I know next to nothing about him, but please, if you have nothing constructive to say, then just keep your opinions to yourself.
