So,erecting a statue is only what Rochas could ever think of with bailout funds. Come to think of it, Zuma of all people.

.Imagine what this Governor is saying... PDP is responsible for the controversy. How Mr Governor? these politicians think we the citizens can't think or reason by ourself.

Do we have economic experts in the house...can some one plz explain to me how a lifeless statue attracts business investors...does such a strategy exist in economics...
Somebody plz tell this governor and his cabinet to get an artificial brain implanted in there head.

Rochas should be sentenced to death by electrocution for selling Imo state and Nigeria as a whole so cheap.

IGBOs primary investment is drug dealing, and South Africa is a major location for IGBO drug dealers - if he builds a statue for South African president he might go easy on IGBO drug dealers (aka investors). . He does not know that ZUMA will not stop South Africans from killing igbo people there, and why will any normal person invest in IGBOland considering the risks of 419 and possible civil war! Even IGBOs don't invest in IGBOLAND, hence they are all over the world!!!

Build one for Indonesia president, he might spare the next batch of IGBO drug dealers awaiting firing squad!

IGBO people, stupid since the days of Aguyi-Ironsi!

hate will lead you no where in life.

I think this man might be doing a good thing we don't understand.

Funny enough i like his idea. Its radical and catchy bt I think its just a wrong timing now cos of wat zuma is going tru at d moment.

I said it, rochas has started drinking again.

so signing an mou with your supposed foundation translates to bringing investment. imolites sre on a longgggg tin

All selfish interests.

What exactly can S.A. or Zuma being to Imo state?
Maybe an upgraded version of MTN.

It's all a hustle. Those bunch of biz men and Rochas are setting up stuff in S.A. big-time and they need Zumas cover because he's as corrupt as he looks.

LadyNaija:
Governor Rochas Okorocha has said he erected a huge statue in honour of South African president, Jacob Zuma, to attract investment to Imo state.

the governor said Zuma’s visit to Imo state was to sign a memorandum of understanding between Jacob Zuma education foundation and Rochas foundation college of Africa.

He said the South African president also met with businessmen at the Ikemba Ojukwu centre, including Leo Stan Ekeh of Zinox Computers, Pascal Dozie of Diamond Bank, chairman of Innoson Motors, and a host of others. Okorocha said his administration decided to honour Jacob Zuma by conferring on him a merit award and erected a statue to encourage the South African president to do more and appreciate him for visiting the state.

The Imo state government blamed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the controversy that has surrounded the honour of Zuma. The statement said: “If it was in the days of PDP, Schools and Markets would have been shot down. And roads closed because President Zuma was coming. But none of such things was done because Rochas and his government have human face.

The PDP for the 12 years they held sway never attracted any meaningful visitor to the State except PDP NEC members who were coming to loot the State." The government said Rochas owes no apology for erecting the statue, adding that if erecting statues will develop imo state then the government will have no option than to erect as many of such structures as possible.

"And in case these “Galatians” do not know, if all we need to do to attract good things or investments to Imo is erecting statues, then, we have no option than to erect as many of such structures as possible. We owe no one apology. Rochas made a promise to open the doors of Imo to the rest of the world, for good and he is doing that and we cannot be deterred by these enemies of our people," the government said.

Awards, titles and recognition are given for accomplishments, contributions and achievements.

But Rochas gave all these out in anticipation.

SMH.

Apparently Rochas does not know that Rochas Foundation and Imo State Government are two different entities.

Where is Sam Mbakwe's effigy in Owerri?

booblacain:
In other words, you are a con man. You are admitting you did not honor Zuma because you believed he deserved it, rather you embarrassed your state and your country because you wanted to "lure" investments. Okoracha, I make bold to say that you think and reason exactly like a con man.

When a visitor or tourist walks into Imo state, how is he going to tell apart the statues and monuments built for honorable men/women from the ones deceitfully built for investment purposes?

well said

Hello Mr. Okoro...you are just celebrating hypocrisy by building a statute for Zuma from South Africa!

Where were you when the greatest African political leader, MANDELA was alive?

what did Zuma do for 9ja or Imo state when he was president?

That money you wasted is enough to put food on the table of 1000 mekunnus in a day!...shame!

because he allowed you drugs bussiness in south africa to move

Is there no past leader in the east? Why S/A president?

a statue you erected for 520m while your people are suffering and you are owing salary yet you claim it will bring investment... Rochas

hisgrace090:
Rocha's! Your hatted by your people for joining APC.

Even though Zuma promise to help IMO state under you, mind you your people will do all to stop him so that you wount be praised.

Match forward don't look back God and very few are all you HV for now. Remain blessed.

so rochas style of govt is ok to you abi?

It is only in Imo state - Nigeria, that you erect statutes to attract investors.

So it's safe to say our amiable governor that you just scammed the president of South Africa to get more funds for your foundation? Choi!!! This one na yahoo yahoo governor.

Instead of supporting buffoonery, you should go back to school and get a proper education. Your post is littered with spelling and grammatical errors most pupils won't make.

So erecting statue now suffices investment, abi?
What a moronic response from a double mouthed devil incarnate!
Same PDP you once served as minister, you ought to have returned all the treasury you looted as minister then under the wasted 12 yrs you claimed.

Whoa wait! Am South African and we are not the giant of Africa, foolish status!

ds clown has dumped evrytin in owerri and forgot d oda lgas in imo
funny enough d billygoat used propaganda to chase away ohakim now he's worse than ohakim
okorohawsa is a true conman

Of course he is not doing this to run for President because both APC and PDP have awarded that position to serious zones (NORTH)

Of course he is not doing that like he said for investment because the picture of him shaking Obama did not bring the Yankees to Owerri

SO what could it be?

For Biafran recognition in Africa? To say Ndigbo and Biafrans are generous people promoting Black Africa?

Ummm?

Fool... Because he hides all his looted money. In south Africa... Monkeypox fall on you.

This guy is dull o, the cost of that statue outweighs the so call investment his bringing to imo. There are other way of attracting investors to ur start rada than spending huge amount on irrelevant statue. This guy is really dull.

Thats the only way he could thank Zuma for allowing more Nijas in SA.

IGBO people, stupid since the days of Aguyi-Ironsi!

I am pained to be from the same country with low life, no good, empty skulls like you. If you have a grudge with anyone must you take it out on an entire tribe? Kids like you come on NL to claim all macho but are completely docile ants in real life. I am trying my best to be civil here. Please enough of all these rubbish.

j1mmy:
makes sense?
Afonja's primaryinvestment is skull mining and Ilorin is a major location for skull mining- if they build a statue for their gambari master he might go easy on human spare part dealers (aka investors). . He does not know that fulani will not stop gambari from killing afonja people there, and why will any normal person invest in afonjaland considering the risks of 419 and possible skull loss.Even Afonjas don't trust fellow afonjas hence they are all over the world!!!

Build one for US president, he might spare the next batch of Afonja fraudsters awaiting jail time

Afonja people, stupid since the days of Awolowo and rat poison
