South East Must Stop Depending On Northerners For Food Supply - Okorocha by gabinweb: 5:41pm On Aug 31, 2016 |
Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, has call on the people of south east to go back to farming and stop depending on the food from the northern part of the country. Okorocha while speaking to newsmen yesterday in Owerri, Imo State, said that South Eastern people will face a lot of challenges if the North cut food supply to to region. “As we talk, the food we consume in the state, like rice, yam, tomatoes, pepper and beef, all come from the North. "If the farmers in the North cut food supply to the South East, we will face a serious challenge,” the governor said.

He should be telling his audience the extent he has gone in making Imo State the food basket of the country. Peradventure the food supply from the North is cut off other options will be fully exploited. 11 Likes 1 Share |

Unfortunately Okorocha is not well informed. Most of the food consumed in the east are either produced in the east or imported. Only a small fraction comes from elsewhere in Nigeria 16 Likes 2 Shares |

S6un:Shut up, what do u know. Don't come here and be spewing useless and baseless lies. U can tell ur lies to Ipob youths, they will believe u immediately. So u want to tell me u know a state more than the governor? Ipob youths like u simply want to deny the fact that u cant survive without the region u love to hate. There is virtually nothing in yeeboland. Lol, even the oil there is not up to 5%, Yoruba land even produce more oil than the whole south east. It's so funny, the people calling for the break up Of Nigeria, are actually the ones that needs Nigeria the most. Jobless Ipob youths everywhere 22 Likes 3 Shares

Victorvexz: Get out of here, useless IPOO miscreant from a juju-infested enclave. Just a mere whispering of Biaf... or NK your blood pressures go abnormally high with many of you leeches dying of heartaches. "For Lagos State, more than 70% of the manufacturing concerns and major industries in the State are owned by the Igbos. If the Igbos were to stop paying tax in Lagos State, the IGR of Lagos State will reduce by over 60%. In contrast, Sir, go to the South East and look at the manufacturing concerns in Onitsha, Aba and Nnewi. Please don't forget those were areas ravaged by civil war a mere forty something years ago. The Igbos have certainly made tremendous progress but the Yoruba nation has regressed. I wish to state that this letter is not meant to whip up primordial considerations or ethnic sentiments but just to put things in proper perspective." - Maj.

Victorvexz: The Oil Money from Orient Oil Otu-Ocha in Anambra, Shell in Ukwa East Abia state, Agip in Ohaji-Egbema in Imo state is probably paying for the generator in your Local Government Headquarters. I don't want to even go into Oil coming out of other areas in Igboland like Oshimili in Delta and Obi-Igbo and Asa in Rivers that helps pay for you parasites to keep Nigeria going 4 Likes 1 Share |

The north is making billions of dollars selling very expensive food stuff to the south east while using the FG and their Fulani herdsmen to frustrate any attempt to farm anything in the region. 2 Likes 1 Share |

attackgat:Please I am talking of the south east as a region, why are u going off topic by mentioning delta and rivers? Are they part of south east? Because there are igbos there does not make it igboland. Everybody body knows igboland of today land starts and end in the landlocked south east. Even the oil in the south east is not up to 5%, for u to be boasting, yorubaland, precisely Ondo state produces more oil than ur erosion ravaged enclave. Am pretty sure that the amount of money the northerners make from exporting their farm produces can make up for the money the south east tiny oil gets. So I ask again, what does the south east as a region really contribute to the economy. 10 Likes 3 Shares |

Victorvexz: Same as everone knows that Lagos was never part of the SW but part of the Lands of the Badagry and Awori that Yoruba invaders stole. We haven't firgotten history. The true Yoruba territory of the old Oyo empire contributes nothing. Even the Oil producing area of Ondo is Ijaw territory. You said we contribute 5%? Much better than tou guys who contribute nothing, hence why you need 'one Nigeria' to keep funding your owa mbe life style. 3 Likes 1 Share |
