Lagos - PEACE of God which passes all human understanding should be in our hearts, envelope our lives, be with all Nigerians - President Olusegun Obasanjo,(August 23, 2003). THERE is always some prejudice that dogs those we do not know. Mention the man Owelle Anayo Rochas Okorocha to those who have not had close encounter with him, they are likely to dismiss him as a political upstart or wanabee with more money than political gravity. Others are more likely to remember him as the young Igbo moneybag who added a circus touch to the last presidential primaries. Among his fellow Igbo, the fact that he is young and rich is likely to be a burden. If you are young and Igbo and rich, Nigerians are likely to wave you aside as either a 419er, a drug baron, a rich trader with no education or Aso Rock-made millionaire. After all, they will ask, was Rochas not the man who supplied the ALGON jeeps?
