2015: Okorocha bemoans lack of confidence among Igbo’s
in vying for Presidency

The Imo State Governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha has

expressed shock over the lack of confidence among the

Igbos in aspiring for the position of the President of the

federal Republic of Nigeria came 2015. Owelle Okorocha

bared his mind when he received the Enugu Zonal Director

and Management team of the Federal Radio Corporation of

Nigeria (FRCN) Enugu Zone in Government House Owerri.

The Governor stressed that Nigeria as a nation belongs to

all Nigerians and wondered why Ohaneze Ndi-Igbo should

champion the course of discouraging the Igbo man against

aspiring for the highest position in the Federal Republic of

Nigeria. He therefore called on the Igbos to brace up and

support any of their own aspiring for the Presidency. The

Imo Chief Executive assured the Enugu Zonal Director of

the support of government but challenged FRCN stations to

pursue the goal of uplifting the people and uniting the

nation by being objective in their reportage. He however

regretted that FRCN has failed to give elaborate report on

the abandoned Imo axis of the Port-Harcourt –Owerri Road

which poses great danger to motorists plying the road.

Earlier, the Enugu Zonal Director, FRCN, Mr. Chigozie

Obialor said they were in Owerri to hold their 3rd and 4th

Annual conference. He revealed the year’s conference with

the theme; “Overcoming the challenges of Election Year

through Radio Programme”, would provide the radio

Stations within the zone new ideas that will help serve the

public better. Mr. Obialor thanked the Governor for

providing the radio station a condusive atmosphere for

operation in Owerri and requested for an operation vehicle

for the Owerri Station, while assuring the State government

of their collaboration. Unadike William C. For: SSA Media
