Okorocha is the only igbo politician with a talent for populist mobilisation and connection to the masses. The others are traders who accidentally crashed into politics or politicians trading political goodwi for cash. In any case most of them prefer caucus conspiratorial.politics involving the exchange.of cash, gentleman agreements backed by oath swearing to any broad.base appeal to mass emotion.
It is going to be hard to get an Ibo President because the ideological promptings for a true political ditection are lacking. Businessmen traders make very weak business men because politics is more intense and the commodity of exchange is more intagible.

Okorocha is not a very sophisticated politician
I have drilled down what he says and to be honest? nothing special.
The only reason Okorocha will most likely do well in National politics better than most Igbos is because he speaks fluent Hausa
but in terms of knowing what he is talking about, there are far better politicians in the East.
Take for example that quote about "Head of State" and "State of the Head", what is he really saying? That the President is mad or that the rest of Nigeria is mad?
That said, Okorocha is far more brilliant than Buhari.
I still don't believe APC is fielding their A-list candidates!

Today I heard the fiery oratorical skills of Owelle Rochas Okorocha for the 1st time and I really see a future for Nigeria with him.

"There is nothing wrong with the head of state but there CAN BE something wrong with the state of the head"

Wow Owelle stole my heart tonight if I was a delegate, he surely would have had my vote.

I hope the Igbo will Allow him and support him in the near future. He seems the surest bet to Aso Rock by the Igbos. The man is sound.
