bellychiz:
Oba you are a bastard we will vote the candidate of our choice, that same lagoon will swallow you by God's grace. Rochas you are shameless and a disgrace to the Igbos. Wetin fly wan support before. Nonsense and ingredient!

raumdeuter:
Rochas is one of the few ibos who have sense

Balkan:
MALLAM ROCHAS OLANIYI OKOROCHA
We are Watching Your utterances.

SurePresident:
It has officially been confirmed that Rochas Okorocha is Nigeria's next Senate President. And in the nearest future, he's guaranteed to be the first igbo Nigerian President. He's an untribalized Igbo, the only one that Hausas and Yoruba would vote enmasse. Rochas, I pray for long life for you to become president and for me to witness your progressive and prosperous reign as Nigerian President.

EUROBOMBER:


God bless you abundantly Rochas! Most of my Igbo people don't like to hear the truth but some of us will continue to shout it from the roof tops until our people accept the truth.

You will hear them call Rochas all sorts of names now and call for his sack from Government house come Saturday.

I smh...

obinoral1179:
you urge you IMO brothers to do what? Bros swerve jor.

Edusouls:
[s]rochas is the man of the new generation,the type of future man we need in igbo land, he thinks forward, his judgement is purely based on facts, he is the only possible igbo president for the future, we igbos are too myopic,troublesome,divided and very tribalistic,we judge with sentiments and never with facts on ground, if you re in another mans land and flexing muscles,trying to disrupt their people choice, what do you expect? If we cant keep quiet and live accordingly with the owners of the land,then we should leave their place for them simple.and stop making noise,by the way we the ones that travel to their place,they didnt beg you to come[/s]..

tochimas:


It then means we Nigerians don't wish well for ourselves, what is the value of making all these costly sacrifices for the sake of democracy when that is not what we want.
Anybody with the mind set of Oba and okorocha can never be a democrat.
That is not what democracy is all about.
I'm sure some of you have travelled and even citizen of another country, you must have equally voted there.
Instead of us to have this kind of democracy, I will rather welcome the military with open arms. It is a better option than a quasi democracy.
In fact they should be warming up to instill order in this chaotic country, these class of politicians are all thieves and self seeking set of people.

Pinkiedearie:
Okorocha been fooling himself since...
#no offense meant

Today, hundreds of shop owners, especially of Igbo, were reportedly forced to shut-down their shops at the Idumota Market, Lagos Island and ordered to go and join the APC candidate, Akinwunmi Ambode .

This is coming when the Lagos monarch is under heavy criticism for threatening to deal with Igbo residents of Lagos if they ddid not vote for his APC candidate, Akinwunmi Ambode.

One of the traders in an sms message to reporters said, “We arrived Idumota market to our shops as early as 8am. Shortly after, some thugs came, ordering us shut our shops on the orders of Oba Akiolu. They gave us 10 minutes to hurriedly close shops and join the waiting vehicles parked in front of his palace, and heading to Orile, venue of Ambode’s campaign led by the President-elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari.”

Some of the Igbo traders who deal on pharmaceutical products in the market said when they arrived the market, some messengers informed them that Oba Akiolu ordered everyone to close shop and join buses numbering over 100.

A Pharmaceutical products dealer, said: “We were shocked at what happened today (Tuesday) in Idumota market. When we got to the market, we were caught unawares by a purported order from the Oba of Lagos, directing all traders to close shop and join a bus heading for Ambode’s campaign.


“We were shocked by this directive, because we were never informed the previous day (Monday) about this directive. More worrisome is the fact that I lost millions of naira because of this self-serving coercion by the Oba.”

Another pharmaceutical products dealer, said: “I feel this recent forceful directive by the Oba is in fulfilment of his recent threat to deal with Ndigbo if they fail to vote for his preferred candidate. But as far as I am concerned, no amount of threat or coercion will deter me from making my choice at the forthcoming governorship election in Lagos State.”

Some Igbo traders view the monarch’s order as not unconnected with the campaign of Ambode in the Orile axis of the state. President-elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari and other APC national leaders were in Lagos today to lead the campaign train

Texcoco:
Throwing people under the bus for selfish gains is a favorite hobby of Rochas...And people wonder why igbos view him as an outcast.

StunningCEO:


muumuu...wer did I say...he is not from imo state...where did I mention Ibadan or edo...anoda victim of pdp educatn...cannot read...

Beface:
I now know why other tribes don't trust Igbo and why there don't want Igbo to be the President of Nigeria. Rochas is trying to make them understand but their mentality they cheat them. I think the Eze Ndi Igbo of Lagos is very wise in his reply and i acknowledge the Igbo's to learn from him. Instead of the Igbo's to be diplomatic about it they are busy claiming right.

Vitalis13:
I'm so ashamed to call that man my governor.
Just for the sake of politics he has fallen in bed with those who cursed us. And we call him our governor. Shame to you Okorocha if you really said those words.
