Okorocha: I’m In A Hurry To Deliver by gernded(m): 9:00pm On May 27, 2011 |
Imo State Governor-elect, Chief Rochas Okorocha, has restated his commitment to rescue the state, even as he declared that he is in a hurry to deliver the services to the people who massively elected him to serve. In his first press briefing in Owerri Thursday since he was declared governor-elect, Okorocha who in his usual oratory rendition, observed that he was not expecting any monetary reward from the state because he did not put in money to win his election. According to him, he won because the battle was between the oppressor and the oppressed (people) and at the end of the day the people won, adding “the battle between the oppressor and the people in the state has ended”. “I am proud to say that I spent nothing in this election, so I owe nobody and the state does not owe me. I have taken the side of service to the people. I think nothing except how to better the lot of Imo people who trooped out in the sun and rains to vote for me”, he stated. He promised to move government closer to the people, stressing that there shall be no Douglas House (official residence of governor of Imo State), and would make the people active participants of governance. On corruption, Okorocha said his government will not tolerate corruption, as “ours will be to make the necessary sacrifices to make sure that the masses of the state are well taken care of”. On education, he reiterated that he had passion for education and would ensure that every child of Imo origin goes to school free-of-charge. “On free education in Imo State, it is not negotiable. We shall put everything to make sure that we achieve this feat”. He advised that his government will not tolerate laziness and urged all to wake up and embrace good opportunities his government would provide, as he assured that his would be better than the outgoing administrations in the state. |

When one is complaining that 4 years is too short to make any significant impact, the proactive ones are in a hurry to start performing. Thank you Rochas, This is the difference between average Joes and good administrator. The right mind set. |

^^Yeah right. Sounds more like the difference between an ignoramus and an experienced person to me. |

Genius100:i went to rochas' campaign, and i can firmly tell u that common pure waters were bought from the hawker, let alone, snacks and drinks. His posters were sponsored by the keke and taxi drivers union. Most of the campaign venues were at his plaza, convention centre, and lamonde hotel (his hotel). So, dont doubt the man, cos he's a real businessman. |

I have been hearing and watching his philantrophic activities since 2002 and free education in one of his school at Ibadan. I am not in doubt of his ability to deliver. The guy has the stuff. |
