EVERYBODY MUST HUMILIATE, SUBJUGATE AND OPPRESS THE IGBO MAN.

EVEN THE IGBO MAN THAT FINDS HIS WAY INTO GOVERNMENT HOUSE WONT SPARE THEM.


THINGS WE DO NOT PRACTICE OR BELIEVE IN, THEY WILL GIVE AWAY OUR VERY SCARCE RESOURCES.


IS THIS HOW TO PLAY POLITICS OR HOW TO BE PRESIDENT?


LORD HAVE MERCY

Imo no fund islamic activities in the past ?

Anytime Ebonyi government does anyhow things like other states in the south east equally do, your Ebonyi bigotry incidentally rears its head.

See the idiot like anyhow person

You'd think his own state is a saint

Ebonyi miscreant is triggered, comparing Imo state to Ebonyi is like a petulant child slapping his father on his head. Ebonyi is one of the poorest states in Nigeria and ranks among the lowest in HDI...all those funds your Aboki looking governor is wasting on a stupid hajj nonsense should be used in more critical sectors that will make Ebonyi more viable and useful to the SE and Nigeria at large. Fulani herdsmen just suyanized over 18 persons in Nkalaha, why aren't all those millions of naira going to the rehabilitation of the IDPs there?

This is very commendable.

Next is full implementation of Sharia Law in the entire Igboland.

This one is a reward for Fulani people for savagely attacking innocent people of Ebonyi state by the state governor.
I think this governor deserves the title 'Okoroawusa' more than Rochas Okorocha.

I'm of the opinion that if you are interested in traveling for pilgrimage, you should do so at your own expense cos it's now beginning to look like attending pilgrimage is to show off .

Govt has no business sponsoring Christians/Muslim pilgrimages & other religious endeavours.

Such things should be left for individuals to handle.

The Muslims in the SW rejected Sharia but those in the East are eager for it. They will get Sharia law whether you like it or not. It's in the Constitution.
