Umu Igbo,

Consequent upon the resignation of Eze Odumchi, vis-à-vis the need to continue with our tradition of Eze Ndi Igbo Nairaland, we once again call upon you to lend your voice in the nomination of ‘fit and proper’ Igbo man capable of leading us online in the 21st century.

The Nomination rules are stated below:

[b]SECTION 1: NOMINATION RULES
The nomination rule’s primary objective is to ensure that ‘fit and proper’ Igbo are allowed to stand for election.
1.1 - An individual can nominate two forumers to contest against the incumbent Eze if:
a - Profiling of such forumer indicates s/he is a ‘fit and proper’ Igbo
b - Such forumer has been a registered and active poster at least three months prior to the election (an endorsement by 10 eligible forumers shall however suffice for a waiver)
c -Such forumer does not have pattern of denigrating our institution (Eze Ndi Igbo Nairaland) or our people (Igbos of any state).
d. Such member is not under ban or suspension for infraction of rules or for unadulterated hatred against fellow Igbo
1.2 - An individual can be nominated for the role of Eze/Eze Nwayi if s/he satisfies the conditions above in addition to having a fairly good history of defending Igbo cause online.

1.3 - GROUNDS FOR DISQUALIFICATION

An individual will be DISQUALIFIED from standing for elective position if
a. He breaches any section of the Nomination Rule OR
b. Such individual has an opposition to his candidacy totaling not less than 1/3 of his/her total nominations.
c. Nominees who do not accept their nominations after the deadline determined by the electoral commissioner, SHALL be disqualified.
d. Where all nominees fail to accept their nomination, the incumbent shall be returned unopposed.

1.4 - DISQUALIFIED CANDIDATES CAN:
a. Appeal to Election Tribunal
b. Appeal to the Eze and his council as the final arbiter

1.5 - OTHERS
a. Nominations done with known multiple User IDs, shall not count
b. Two nominees to amass the highest nomination shall be polled alongside the incumbent Eze, subject to the outcome of any or all petitions against their candidacy.
1.6 ASSUMPTION
A basic assumption of the Nomination Rule is that an incumbent Eze exist at all times. Where an Eze does not exist (due to removal or other reasons) the Electoral Commissioner shall increase the number of candidates standing for election by one.
[/b]

I would appeal that it is very important that conduct due diligence (profiling) before nominating any candidate. And due to time constraint, and the need to quickly fill any potential leadership void, a period of three (3) day (plus or minus one) depending on the event shall be allowed for nomination. A day shall be set aside for unfolding of manifestos (agendas, debates, campaign etc) leading to the election.

Umu Igbo, we have to move on. Let the nominations NOW formally proceed.


To help with this process will be Afam4ever, 9ja_I_hail, and Ujchief who served a members of the Electoral Tribunal in the last election.

Nomination has formally closed:

The following are the top nominees.


Name Nominations
Onlytruth - 18
Alex101 - 12
Biafra_rep - 12


Manny is a standby candidate should any of the top candidate fail to accept their nominations.



Eze Ndi Igbo Election - Next Stage


We proceed to the next stage of the Election.

- The rest of day will be used for Acceptance Speeches, unfolding of program of agenda, and campaign

- Discussion of Manifestos/Debate/Questions and Answer will take place tomorrow (Tuesday) - This will be handled by the Eze Nwanyi - Ogugua (she will decide the the time)

- She will also oversee the election and announcement of result, with the support from the Electoral Body.

- The Electoral Tribunal may prepare sets of question to be answered by the top nominees

Ejiné:

@pointb the same mistake cannot be repeated twice. interested folks for the ezeship should declare their intentions so votes are not scattered to people who are not interested and does not what what the job entails or someone withdrawing after nominations. Someone already declared in the other thread.

I understand your fears, but I believe our constitution covers that part. The declaration in the other thread will be taken into consideration when nomination resumes by tomorrow.

Well, since PointB has said we should hold our nomination till 9pm (3pm my time), no problem na. I still dey here...

why is it that you are only seen during elections? Am always skeptical about the female igbos here but your on point with this comment.

Ndigbo, ana ma ekele unu. I greet you all and humbly seek your approval for me to serve you all. Thanks ang God bless Ndigbo. I do not seek to lead you all sons and daughters of the Igbo race, rather I want to to be your "servant" Eze. If elected, I will focus on the area of media importance vis-a-vis Igbo status in nigeria. Lots of lies have been peddled against us in nigeria by our enemies who control the media and we must fight back. Our parents did not fight these falsehood (understandably because they were picking up the pieces of their lives after the war) and if we the youths of Igboland cannot do this, then we've got problem.
