2 Min Read

Despite public criticsm against the unveiling of N520 Million Jacob Zuma statue, Imo state governor, Rochas Okorocha has said he’ll  build more statues.

In a statement released by the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Sam Onwuemeodo, on Tuesday, October 17, 2017, he sent out a reply and called his critics ‘enemies of our people’.

“In case these ‘Galatians’ do not know, if all we need to do to attract good things or investments to Imo is erecting statues, then, we have no option than to erect as many of such structures as possible. We owe no one apology.

“Rochas made a promise to open the doors of Imo to the rest of the world for good and he is doing that and we cannot be deterred by these enemies of our people.”

“If it was in the days of PDP, schools and markets would have been shut down. And roads closed because President Zuma was coming. But none of such things was done because Rochas and his government have human face.

“The PDP for the 12 years they held sway never attracted any meaningful visitor to the state except PDP NEC members who were coming to loot the state,” he said.
