Nigeria Needs Repackaging, Not Restructuring- Gov Rochas Okorocha Says



The Imo state governor, Rochas Okorocha says recently that Nigeria currently needs repackaging and not restructuring. Some politicians have in recent times called for the restructuring of the country as a lasting solution to the problems and agitations that have lingered over the years.

Following the press statement released by his Chief Press Secretary, Sam Onwuemeodo, Governor Okorocha made the call at the 67th Annual Conference of the Broadcasting Corporation of Nigeria, BON, in Owerri yesterday July 17th. According to the governor, restructuring meant different things to the various geo-political zones in the country and that what the country currently needs is “repackaging". Read from the statement.

“His Excellency, the Governor of Imo State, Rochas Okorocha has called on proprietors and managers of the Radio and Television Stations in the country operating under the aegis of Broadcasting Organization of Nigeria (BON) who are meeting in Owerri for their 67th Annual Conference to help repackage Nigeria for consumption by the rest of the world because that is what is needed now and not restructuring. He also asked them to come up with programmes that could allow the less privileged in the society who cannot afford the high cost of electronic media to also be heard. Our nation requires repackaging. It is unfortunate that a great nation like ours has not been properly packaged for consumption by the international communities" he said


Convince yourself that you can be great without knowing anything about greatness. Truly believe that you are only valuable just as what you own.

It's rather a sport day over LG election in some parts of Lagos

I would rather play ball or any other sport in the rain than join a voting queue! In the ongoing Local Government Elections in Lagos State, it was seen that most part of the state engaged them selves in sport activities instead of queuing up to cast their vote as expected. To these ones, politicians comes with big megaphones making promises of a brighter future etc but the truth is they generally perceived as bunch of greedy individuals who seek governmental power in a bid to enrich their pockets rather than exercise the power positively for the development of the country. Once the power is attain, they choose to deliberately forget the promises they made to during campaign. Somewhere around Ipaja Lagos, the apathy is big enough to swallow a whale.
