Olusegun Obasanjo, has blamed
Governor of Imo State, Rochas
Okorocha, for “all the bad things” that
happened to the country during his
tenure between 1999 and 2007.
Obasanjo was speaking in Owerri, at
the graduation ceremony of students of
Rochas Foundation.
He said;
“As you may all know, Rochas was one
of the advisers I had when I was
president,” he said.
“All the bad things that happened to this
country under my presidency was
advised by Rochas Okorocha,” he said.
Obasanjo however extolled the qualities
of the Governor, who he said never
ceased to surprise him.
“He (Okorocha) has never stopped to
surprise me. He is a man of vision, of
ideas. He is a thinking man. And when
he explained to me his ideas about
education, what he has done, I was
marvelled. I doff my hat for you,
Okorocha.
“Let me say this, the beginning of the
development for any country is
education. And the extent that we take
education seriously, that is the extent
that we take development seriously.
“Rochas is not just dealing with
education; he is dealing with education
for the underprivileged in general.
Which means that if the poor and the
underprivileged will rise above their
disadvantaged position, it is only
through education.
“And with what I have seen today, I
have no regret at all to accept his offer
for me to be part of this wonderful
programme and wonderful
development agenda to our country and
for our continent,” he added.
