They can rally from zone to zone. But one thing is clear, GEJ will never hand power over to the Igbos after his time in office whether in 2015 or 2019. because the Igbos have made themselves professional political praise singers in Nigeria to whoever that becomes the president of Nigeria. Ya, I like the new political position the Igbos have given themselves.

TAN rally is aimed at urging GEJ to contest 2015 election since his performance in the past four years is commendable. The Igbos are not using the opportunity to seek for hand over in 2019.

You are right that GEJ will return power back to the North in 2019 but he has achieved one thing which is the most important thing

That thing is, the liberation of Northern minorities through states creation

Very soon the politics of Nigeria will change and this change will transform Nigeria's socioeconomic activities such as 50:50 resource control State police etc
