Ezenwammadu:
His poplarity starts and ends in imo not SE

SarahBabyxx:
I don't see this happening....okorocha's popularity starts and ends in the SE......I don't even See APC going that route

He could start as VP but shooting for Presidency straight won't work #my 2cents

francizy:
Point of correction, he didn't win, he rigged his way in for second tenure.
I would even prefer Fashola or Akpabio to that fat goat!

francizy:
God forbid I elect a man that has nothing to show for his 8 years rule with 11 months salaries unpaid and several abandoned projects while his bank account gets larger..


**I spit on Rocha's fat face**

Douglasdale:
Truth is Neither Peter Obi or Chime is sellable outside their States. They sank with the PDP government and would do well to retire or maybe go to the Senate.
Rochas is very well mouthed in the scheme of things and would without sweat beat both Chime and Obi on any national election.

Douglasdale:
I read with utter disgust the way Anambra people deride Rochas., wetin the guy do una sef? As far as the south East is concerned Rochas Okorocha is the most prominent politician. He has won two elections with lesser parties proving that he indeed is a sellable candidate. He is the only Governor from APC in South East. He saw the handwriting on the wall and as a sharp guy tried to move apga into the APC but Obi had other plans. The Anambra people still out of their utter frustration and myopia voted Ngige (obvious Senate president) out.
Who is that politician in Anambra state who can pick the APC ticket if you insist Rochas must no go?

Douglasdale:
For empirical evidence.... How long did Chime and Obi rule their respective States.

Where this two governors under an opposition party for once?

Are these govs you mentioned members of the APC.

Obi and Chime... Which of them has more national clout than Rochas?

What States can they win apart from their own States?

barcanista:
Honestly, I still don't understand the direction of this country under Buhari's lead. I don't want to pre-empt him but I fear for the worse.


Btw: can we talk off nl?

tochukwuifeduba:
If you want us to engage in government accountability then we have to do a thorough research work not treating isolated case. we need facts and statistic of the entire 36 state governors in Nigeria.., we need statistic of their monthly allocation and internal generated revenue.. we need to see other projects the engaged in .. Government does not start and end with paying Imo workers salary

PentiumPro:
Sadly, the greatest opposition to his ambition will come from Iboland.

tochukwuifeduba:
i dont give a shit about Imo allocation.. i have done a careful research on the Igbo leader who have a national acceptability who we can field as President i can only come up with Rochas Okrocha.. Ngige and Peter Obi and Orji Uzor Kalu cannot make the list

tochukwuifeduba:
that one is not our concern in this article.. moreover dont forget as an Apc state he was starved of Fund by the then PDP lead government. so i expect that to change now that Apc shangiya is in power

davseun2ta:
Buhari's performance so far without ministers has shown that he is not just competent for the job, but he is the best person for the job!

see why, below......

●Muhammadu Buhari, President of Nigeria, has set
world record in 10 days in office with his diplomatic
shuttles focusing on Security and revamping the
economy.

●He has been to Chad and Niger.
He has been to Germany for G7 Summit,
Sent Osinbajo to Sudan,
Hosted Chad Basin Commission Heads of States
Summit still on security,
Off to AU Summit in South Africa.

●Dealing with oil thieves and already recovered
over $3b dollars within 10 days.
Getting the oil thieves to bring the diverted fuel and
other products through the crude swap into the
country which is why the fuel scarcity is no longer
as bad as it was 3 weeks ago even with the refusal
of marketers to import.

●DSS is investigating NNPC GMD and all the
officials and suddenly we are told PH refinery will
work by June 30.
●He has directed Salaries and Wages Commission
to begin the process of downward review of salaries
and allowances of executive, judicial and legislative
officers.
●He has given directive to governors and Prison
Service to work to decongest the Prisons.

●He has held briefing session with Permanent
Secretaries. Currently, he is chairing the AU 25th
Summit s Security Committee in S/Africa. Hmmm!
Superman! May his zeal never wane, may his health
never fail and his enemies and detractors never win

I'd rather not hahaha.....its nothing of importance anyways

Edo state

I have to ask you to seek some reading assignments on Cameroon's political history. Biya and Ahidjo his former boss fought over power and Biya won. That's the short version. Ahidjo a Fulani Moslem gave power to Biya a Roman Catholic and tried to take it back.

SarahBabyxx:
Ok

SarahBabyxx:
I'm not an 'ethnic jingoist''....I'm not even from the SW but I might as well be called a SWner since I spent most of my life in this region

No one was disputing the fact that SW states are in debt but the fact that you compared them with SOME states in the SE in a way that suits your purpose....fact is DEBT is DEBT....you can't try to sugarcoat it by making one region look less just to suit you purpose

The laughable part of your article was how you compared Ebonyi with osun....a state that we don't even know where its allocation goes to and Is still borrowing.....you even went as far making Enugu look like its economically strong when in fact it is one of most indebted states


As for your 'advice' for the SW....they know what is going...you think we don't know how akala ran Oyo?? I lived in ibadan for a while and I knw Akala is the worst thing that ever happened to OYO......I'd leave you to compare and contrast Akala and Ajimobi.....I don't even want to talk about Gbenga Daniel......go to Ogun they you'd know wassup....atleast if they 'borrowed' we know it was used for something....what did Elechi use the money for? Are you people holding him accountable? Don't even get me stated on Aba (Abia)


The fact is your house is burning and you want to put out the fire in another man's house....we're not all stupid we can read between the lines

atlwireles:
Read the power show down in Cameroon between Biya and Ahmadou Babatoura Ahidjo. Nigerians can learn a thing or two from old man Biya.

fx45:
Good morning Sir! The problem is that majority of these people are untravelled and such are very ignorant of what happens outside their zone.

The fact that we're bold enough to call out our leaders for incompetence and for not meeting up to expected levels of service delivery does not imply that the state is in ruins. It simply means that we demand more from these leaders instead of shielding them because of unneccesary ethnic rivalry. We're never deceived or hoodwinked by propaganda. T.A Orji tried it and failed.

The message these South-Westerners have failed to get is that they should start holding their leaders accountable. They should demand more from them!

Outside Lagos, probably his other submission on that may hold some water...
Lagos is included! 60% of that megalopolis is slum. There is a very poor drainage system and the roads are bad too with no functional streetlighting. There's very poor physical and infrastructural planning.

Just two hours of continuous rainfall exposes Lagos to mind-boggling flooding. The streets are dirty and the environment emits a very pungent and sickly stench. Take a trip to Oshodi, Ojota, Mile12, Mushin, Bariga...... The list is endless. Majority of the people live in squalor and in an unhealthy/unfriendly environment.

SarahBabyxx:
Spot on!! I stopped going back and forth with him when I realised this an igbo vs yoruba /Apc vs PDP thread

AhmedMustapha:
I'm also tired of the inconclusive argument just try to be objective when next you post. Hasta la vista

AhmedMustapha:
You can keep deceiving yourself-this is an excerpt from your hypocritical piece
" Ebonyi state is still healthy economically, why should Osun state be dead already? If Enugu is still forging ahead strong economically, why should Oyo state be bleeding?"
And this has been trashed severally here, you now shift the goal post to economically viable states to suit your stinking hypocrisy. I've said it, when you're done advising the man in Abia,Enugu and Ebonyi then you can do same to others. You posted Imo as a backward South East state because it's APC when it is even the most economically viable state in the SE. Keep deceiving yourself again I say

AhmedMustapha:
What recent info? You mean propaganda? I've told you only fellow hypocrites will believe even a sentence of your post. My request is simple as at 2007, Only Imo made the list of top 10 economically buoyant states. If you have that of 2015, kindly post it here.

PassingShot:
When I have ample time, I will analyse what GEJ earned, what he met as debt, what he added to our debt and what he squandered.

I have always been very fair in my views to issues and on many occasions I have proved it to you with past posts of mine. I wish you were as half principled, truthful and not fanatical.
Got no time for further talk now.
