Abagworo, you are really working hard for your principal. Unfortunately, the kite will not fly because the insincerity and graft oozing out of the Douglas house is getting unbearable. The Ekiti episode is going to re-occur in Imo state, no matter how much soap you use in image laundering on Nairaland and elsewhere.

This post sound so un-Christlike. yOU NEED REPENTANCE.

Imo is in the grip of a vicious cabal that has no business with conscience. This is the time we need rescue

If there is no ulterior motive or direct gain from the fraudulent government, then i will call it sheer gullibility or naivety; anything but beauty of the mind. A clear vision, uncompromising truthfulness and insight are part of a beautiful mind.

Abagworo: I belong to the later. Just study my contributions. I want Nigeria better and free of tribalism.

Very true. at least i 'm sure there is no functional public hospital in the state. Again, the foremost hospital, Umuguma specialist hospital is in coma as the doctors, nurses and all other workers are owed many months salaries.

Sorry, but is it really true that this was the same man who said that ASUU strike would last till 2017? Enlighten me, please.

Well meaning and rational people really need to talk to Abagworo and maybe help him see a correct picture. These are the same pictures(more or less) he has been using to do his master's bidding on Nairaland. Apart from the heroes square, Ojukwu center and what the gov. called concorde annex(which has never been used for that purpose) and a few poorly done roads, what other project has this government completed in Imo state?
Abagworo needs to know that governance is about building structures and systems. How can you be helping a man that has destroyed EVERY system he met and rebuilt NONE? How can your conscience allow you to praise a man who has not yet carried out any project that meets the yearnings of the people (maybe the only exception is the children's park that has some value, though highly limited)? All the public hospitals are gone with the wind and nearly three years down the line, no single replacement. Why will the mortality rate not reach the skies as it has under the rescue government? Nearly three years down, Imo children still study under trees and dilapidated structures while Rochas plays politics with his fraudulent education policy. What do we have to show for all the money he has borrowed on our behalf but aimless, needless and unnecessary structures aimed at deceiving people who have no time , or just don't want to see beyond the surface?

The workers are groaning, traders are groaning, contractors are groaning, even his special assistants and commissioners are no better. Please write about Imo state from a reasonable perspective with the objective of helping and not destroying the good people of the Eastern heartland.

one.east1:
Abagworo stop bringing me into issues that concerns your state. Stop mistaking me for another person who has equally seen thru the fraud going on in imo state. Am sure you will brand onyegecha to be chino soon.

I have number of IDs but that particular one is not mine. If you do not spare me from your complex am gonna turn this thread into a war zone, then you will know that chino has arrived.

Stop deceiving yourself, I have bucket filled with pix of imo state. At least I travel from Awka to PH twice every month via imo state. Am only restrained from posting it because of most people have advised me not to, so that we do not wash our dirty linen in the public.

We all know that the condidtion of imo state is in a messy situation and needs the Prayer of all of us to save the state by 2015 for them to get a gov. I have not seen anything working in imo state:education, health are all dead. Joblessness has hit the skies. Stop posting pix of shabby roads did by ohakim. Show us what okorosha did with all the loans for 3yrs now.

It is even annoying that the gov has borrowed over 200billion and yet it is not seen anywhere what the money was used for.

My dear, you are speaking like one who is not watching from afar and seeing shadowy pictures. Those of us who live in Imo state have seen enough to realize that Imo state is like the proverbial cricket that thought it was getting fattened while it was dying. We need rescue urgently, not white-washed projects that have no bearing on the lives of the people. The only value of these projects is what they are serving on this site-to help deceive people into supporting the governor for a second tenure. Every facet of the Imo populace has been defrauded by this present government and the fraud called governance is still on going.

HEARTLESS
A NOBLE AMONG CON MEN and in fact the greatest and finest there is.

Now don't you see that no one word can describe this personality? Well, i 'm from Imo state.

CONGRATS TO NIGERIA, THE FAKE COUNTRY THAT PARADES AND CELEBRATES FAKE UNITY. I don't think this is surprising in the least.
Until a true leader arises to show us the way out of our present predicament, it will only get worse.

I have always said that Imo people need to be rescued from the so-called rescue mission. I live and work in Imo state and for me, it has always been the more you look, the less you see right from the first month of this present administration. Chukwu Abiama will never allow this evil to swallow up the heartland state and her people.

No matter how much the truth is hidden, painted, distorted, buried, it will always shine forth in the end. Where are those who still think okorocha is the best governor Nigeria has ever known? I weep for my dear state.

Is it not a weeping shame; a great tragedy that people will mortgage their consciences to the extent that they become anti-truth, anti-reasoning, anti-logic whenever any matter concerns their master's numerous misdeeds and atrocities against humanity?

NO LONG TIN: Are you for real? You probably haven't served that's why you are saying these....

So ' Youth Service is more or less a sacrifice and not where to make money' abi

That's why a governor that claims he pays coppers 10,000 every month can b pardon for lying abi?


I pray when you serve, FG will reduce/stop paying you allawi since na sacrifice, so you go know Hw it feels.

I feel for the OP, you don't know Hw it feels serving in another state, surviving on 19,800. I served in Ogun state, we were made to believe we would be paid 5,000 per month working for state government..... That story should be well known here, I don tire to dey Tlk am.

But if Amosun had been sincere with us telling us he prefers to build 'bridges with AC' than pay Coppers, I for dey my house or go private school dey do my NYSC.

I sincerely believe you would have berated this man if he was still in APGA

Sometimes I wonder if you and berem can ever see something wrong with an APC gov/person.
They can do no wrong in ur eyes(perfect) ..... If dem no dey pay you for this, you mess up!

No segment of Imo society is spared the evil wind called Rochanomics, Rochanization, Rochacraziness. I have always said that Imo people need urgent rescue from this fake rescue mission.

Not really surprised.

hisblud: haba berem, is it becos it did not favor your choice, now saharareporters are siding wit fakes. I checked your previous post and saw how you hailed saharareporters. SMH. hmm is this progressive thinking?

By Uzoma Nwachukwu
It is no longer in doubt that Chief Rochas Okorocha, current governor of Imo state, is an ambitious fellow. When he was campaigning for this his current position, he told his people in Imo state that he was “condescending” to seek for the position of governor. If the people thought that it was a mere campaign hyperbole, they realized shortly after Okorocha had assumed office that he meant every bit of what he was saying: He is, indeed, of a special breed, of a blue blood and sent to rescue a hapless people. Unfortunately, the people were not discerning enough to realize that his Rescue Mission slogan was a euphemism for an army of occupation.
Currently, Okorocha’s Imo is under occupation by Okorocha’s army. Recently, he told a stunned audience right inside the chambers of the Imo State government that he will liked to be addressed as “Captain”. Captain Rochas. But like every ambitious conqueror, Captain Rochas is gradually moving outside Imo. With the latter neatly tuck into his pocket, Okorocha has since arrived the neighbouring Anambra state. Under the guise of campaigning for his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), for the forth coming governorship election in the state, Okorocha has lunched an assault on the highly troubled state, evidently with the objective of establishing his influence there. To demonstrate that he is serious, he has raised the stakes quite high. With a whopping N2.5 billion allegedly sank into Anambra by him, there can be no doubt that Captain Okorocha will leave a big mark in the state whether or not his party wins.
Certain of this, the conqueror turned southwards again, marched through Imo and headed to Abia state. There, the highly imaginative adventurist sought for another disguise: His nation-wide birthday carnival was still ongoing but rather than proceed to Kaduna where the birthday train was to anchor penultimate weekend, he sent it to Aba, the commercial city of Abia state where a purported birthday reception was waiting for him. But he forgot that he was in an entirely different territory, indeed another man’s territory. According to media reports, Governor Okorocha’s handlers went ahead with the arrangements of the birthday reception for him without the modesty of letting both the security and political authorities in Abia state be in the know. Even so, Okorocha himself failed, according to feelers, to intimate his Abia counterpart of his intention to come to Abia.
But that wasn’t the real issue since the highly comportment T.A. Orji might have possibility ignored his indecorum. The real problem, according to reports, was that the planned birthday was to pitch a section of Imo indigenes resident in Abia state against another, a situation that arose from the speculation that the proposed birthday event was a disguise to canvass support for Okorocha’s APC in the state. Besides, a section of Abia citizens, for reasons that are not difficult to phantom, was not going to have anything of that sort.
It is to the credit of Governor Orji that an imminent showdown between the opposing sides was averted by the timely intervention disallowing the event. Naturally, the stoppage of the event attracted the attention of the media especially as Okorocha’s handlers tended to make a big issue out of it by painting the picture of an Okorocha that was denied something he is entitled to. But they failed it, as the sympathy they were looking for never came the way of the Imo governor.
In its stead, the question on the lip of every Imo citizens and indeed most Nigeria has been, what was Okorocha looking for in Aba? Coming against the backdrop of the ongoing nation-wide birthday carnival, Imo indigenes saw the incident at Aba as an opportunity to regain their voices, after an embarrassing quietude by the otherwise highly discerning and sophisticated Imolites over the birthday perfidy.
A group, which styled itself the League Of Imo Professionals, in a statement published widely in the media took on the Imo governor on the birthday matter. Apart from wondering why the Imo Governor was embarking on a nation-wide birthday carnival that first took him to Ibadan, Oyo state and allegedly expected to cost the state about N1.8 billion, the group asked Okorocha to stop going about “creating scenes” from one part of the country to another. Pointedly, the group told Governor Okorocha to stay at home and pay attention to the “myriad of problems” confronting the state and the “avalanche of complaints” by citizens of the state over the perceived “ineptitude” of his administration.
In alluding to Governor Okorocha’s penchant for “creating scenes”, the group was evidently drawing attention to other instances, before now, when the Imo governor was involved in unnecessary controversies at public functions, as well as in his personal brushes with people. Sometime ago, Governor Okorocha made headlines when he was involved in an imbroglio with aides of his Anambra state counterpart over sitting arrangements at an event in Enugu. Not long after, he was fingered as the mastermind of a bloody clash between his convoy and that of a senator from his state. He was physically present, according to widely publicized reports, as his security details manhandled one of the drivers in the senator’s convoy.
Next, there was the motor accident in which the driver of a Mercedes Benz car allegedly ran into his official car and in the process of which the governor sustained head injuries. The theatrics that surrounded that incident is still fresh in the minds of observers, with many actually of the view that it was contrived in order to elicit sympathy for the governor. Who wanted the performing governor dead? So the question went. So the story went. Even when the Imo governor later invited the erring motorist and hugged him in front of television cameras, not a few believed that that show was in mere furtherance of a choreography that was designed to portray the governor as large-hearted, accommodating and forgiving. Such publicity stunts are, of course, to be expected because minus them, Governor Okorocha’s image is that of a cantankerous fellow who throw his weight and authority about.
In Imo state where he presides, there exists a clear paradox of the Okorocha administration. Governor Okorocha’s tactics of concentrating only on renovating or building physical structures initially succeeded in setting him aside as a governor who has a vision to “develop” the state. The refrain became: he does what people can see (Ihe Ana Ahu Anya) perhaps in comparison with his predecessor who was concerned with laying a foundation for the state’s economy rather than reroofing buildings. But soon, this Ihe Ana Ahu Anya phenomena began to fade as the people began to realize that the process that led to the structures that were being built defied all known rules of governance.
Specifically, the people soon realized that almost all the projects are handled by close family members, to say nothing of the fact that the quality of the jobs done was nothing to write home about. When this is added to the fact that Governor Okorocha governs the state with so much impunity, with absolute no regard to the opinion of knowledgeable elements even right in his cabinet, the situation is that of an administration that is completely alienated from the people yet appears popular because the fellow on the driving seat knows how to conjures ideas that ordinarily fancy the people. He keeps on rousing the expectations of the people but has shown an obtuse lack of capacity to see his ideas through. This is where the state is now. Matters are out helped currently given Okorocha’s ambition to expand his territory not only to Abia, Anambra and indeed the rest of the South-east, but also to cover the entire Nigeria. Hence, his ongoing nation-wide birthday carnival. When a fellow who was elected to govern just a state begins to go from one part of the country to another to stage birthday shows with the resources of the people, he is merely reminding the people thus: “I told you I was merely condescending to be your governor”.

Imo is going down with every passing day. pity

Owerri was held hostage today by protesters (disabled people) , the second time these people are strangulating vehicular traffic since this present administration came on board. They said they are tired of promises from Rochas and his friends in the Douglas house. Pensioners are groaning under the weight of hardship. ITC workers are lamenting. ADAPALM workers are weeping, Water board people are dying gradually. Civil servants are distressed. The civil service rules have been desecrated with all kinds of crazy policies. Of late, keke drivers who were once his mainstay are vocal in their wish for a change of governor. Indeed, no one can deceive all the people all the time.

I believe we have a responsibility to keep asking these relevant questions until we get reasonable answers. If this is a democracy, ordinary citizens must have a say. Right now all we see is too much talk and too little action. Unfortunately, even the action is mostly negative- destroying the town unions to create community government council that is ill conceived, thereby destabilizing the communities, the many negative policies in the education sector, poor quality roads, policy inconsistency, reckless expenditure,etc.

Why is it only Abacha loot that we keep hearing about? Is it because the man is dead? What about Babangida loot? Obasanjo loot? Jonathan loot? Patience Jonathan loot? What about the thieving governors and other highly placed individuals that have been in the business of looting? Personally, i 'm tired of hearing about Abacha loot. The recovered ones, has anyone really told us what it was used for?

xtianh: Are u guys in this world? Most if not all of the projects mentioned above are all under construction. The ten or one thousand housing unit its located along ph road work is still at the site,the prince nd princess hotels orlu nd okigwe are also in progress rural road projects are also in progress though most of this projects are still at developmental stages

Everything in the state remains uncompleted. Can't we see some fully completed projects after almost three years of deafening noise about a rescuer?

APC stakeholder: Fool!!..u don yarn finish abi..oya go hug live transformer for all i care

This level of irresponsibility from a sane human entity is shocking to say the least.

In my last article I talked about Ali Baba the character from the medieval Arabic literature Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves.In the literature story Ali Baba encountered 40 thieves and later became their leader. In my last article, I also talked about the Ali Baba of Imo State of Nigeria and his 27 thieves. I told you with reasons why the Governor of Imo State Chief Rochas Okorocha is the Ali Baba of Imo State and why Chief Benjamin Uwajumogu the Speaker of the Imo House of Assembly and the members of the Imo House of Assembly are the 27 thieves.

I told you about the looting of the 13 percent oil derivation fund of Ohaji/Egbema/Oguta ,the looting of the 27 LGA funds in Imo State and the looting of 400 million naira flood money of Ohaji/Egbema/Oguta flood victims.I tried to open every eyes to see and recognized the true identity of the dishonorable men and women purporting to represent our collective interest in the Imo House of Assembly. We have 26 puppets and one grand puppeteer in the Imo House. As expected the media aide of the Speaker of Imo House of Assembly took a hard sweep on me calling for my head. The said aide even went as far as attaching my cries to Okigwe 2015 senatorial seat. Who cares about Okigwe senatorial seat? I am not even from Okigwe zone.

My anger is that the Imo State House of Assembly has connived with Ali Baba , aided and abetted gross financial impropriety in Imo state and that is why I am calling them the 27 thieves. Who doesn’t know that the past government of Chief Ikedi Ohakim left a total sum of N26.27billion in various bank accounts of the state namely: Balance of Imo bond proceeds in UBA Plc “ N13.3billion; SUBEB project accounts with BankPHB (now Keystone Bank Ltd) “ N3billion; VAT account in Zenith Bank Plc “ N488million; Internally generated Revenue account with Zenith BANK Plc “ N450million; Local Government Joint project account with BankPHB “N2.5Billion; Agric Loan Account with Access Bank Plc “ N500million; Fertilizer sales account with Oceanic Bank Plc “ N250million; JAAC Account with BankPHB “ N3.6billion; MDG Projects accounts with Fidelity Bank Plc “ N500million; Education Trust Fund (ETF) with Zenith Bank “ N1billion and Imo Children Education Funds “ N670million. The Total sum is N26.27billion .

Where is the money?The entire N26.27billion has been criminally squandered by Chief Uwajumogu and Governor Okorocha. Suffice it to say that this is a clear case of crass abuse of office, criminal conspiracy and outright stealing of public funds which should attract very serious sanctions yet the speakers media aide has the mouth to call me names.In a propaganda to paint "all is well" picture of Imo State, Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State is always on Africa Independent Television (AIT ) and Channel TV to buoy his ego and selfish interests. The irony of this madness is that our governor who should cover his face in shame for looting the resources of Imo State is the one dominating television stations and the pages of Newspapers showing fake transformation in Imo State when nothing tangible is on ground in the 27 Local government of Imo State.

My dear, don't mind the peddlars of these naked lies about non-existent achievements of a reckless, clueless and planless governor. Imo people are watching closely and very soon, they will give their verdict.

This must be a joke but it reflects reality. Why will they not underrate their products when they know the rule of garbage in, garbage out?

[quote author=B2 mario]i dont have strength for all these which some of you know.

Stop acting on heresy rather use your common sense to run the analysis within you. What i've understood about imo state even abagworo might not have noticed it because he has never said anything related to that. I dont reside in imo state neither am i from imo state, but any good political analyst can easily identify Rochas problem without being told the core problem. Please let nobody correct me because i have my fact. .....

If you do not live in Imo state neither are you from Imo state, i wonder whether you are in a position to know where the shoe pinches.You cannot stay far and assume you understand what is happening in Imo state. You are the one who is basing your submissions on internet posts which are packaged to mislead people like you. I have seen that the staunchest supporters of Okorocha on this site are people who merely hear news about Imo state . You guys should move into the state if you are so passionate about the place and enjoy the beautiful rescue mission breeze you are praising to high heavens.

No part of Imo state is spared the agony of the present gross misgovernance in Imo state. All the governor has achieved is a lot of motion without any real movement. People are shown action and they clap, soon they realize they clapped too early.
