  3. Rochas Okorocha is doing well. He has prepared himself for the task ahead before he became governor. He has schools in other geopolitical zones offering free education. He has brilliant ideas. I wish him well.

    I think we are talking about a man that passed through hell 2 survive just like everyother average Nigerian in the street. Why not if not! Not only that, it takes one not only having d takes as regards showing the much you care 2 people but also having conscience and the fear of God in you. I was surprised 2 see in December a double lane Road conctruction going on in my home community. This is the handwork of a man dt has d ppl's feelings @ heart. Lets give credit 2 whoever dt deserves it. I pray God 2 give him d strength & wisdom 2 carry on the good work. God bless us all! In the spirit of ALUTA 4 greatness...

  5. It is a pity that I am not from Imo State. He is ready to listen to ordinary people. Nigeria needs a president that thinks like Okorocha. It does not matter where the president comes from as long as he is as compassionate as Okorocha. I would love to meet this great man. Governor of the year 2011/2012 until 2015? All Governors should be like Okorocha or resign. It means Okorocha is not stealing money from the treasury.
