Short sighted beggarly people only deserve crumbs of course! Or, what should the people who worked hard, against every odds to be successful get versus the lazy, incompetent and cynical Beastafars who put their lives in a sinking boat to deny Nigeria progress and change? Give Onu, Okorocha, Ngige and the other ibo person there some portfolio, pay their allocations and whatever need to be done constitutionally, but that is all. This people will do anything to sabotage Nigeria in order to keep crying for the Beastafar country and hope APC, Buhari and other Nigerians follow their bad advice which is meant to set a trap for them all the way. I say Buhari and Nigerians be wary of these people of herd mentality, whose inferiority complex drive to paranoia on a per second basis!

Gbawe:


That is the way to go. I have stated several times that the condition is right for Buhari to be the Nigerian Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. I.e the father of modern Nigeria who created a thriving nation because of an ability to seek the policies that improves the lives of all Nigerians. Ataturk gained his surname because he was deemed "father of the turks" by the people themselves. Buhari can achieve same by leading Nigeria well for all Nigerians. Buhari can also "launch a programme of revolutionary social and political reform" that will see his name hailed fondly long after he is gone.

He is president of Nigeria not of the North and West alone. If he prefers to rule the North and the West alone, he should allow you people to go your way and form your Biafra nation so stop behaving like a weakling.

IGBOSON1:


^^^I swear, it's these beggarly greedy and selfish old fools that are our biggest problem!

Our only option as a people is to either agitate for a true fiscally compliant federation, a confederation, or everybody should go answer their papa name.....simple! Not all this stupid going to beg a Fulani man not to forget Igbos! I mean, have they no shame!? These people they're going to 'beg' are the very same people that have hated, marginalized and murdered Ndigbo......and there's no sign that they're remorseful for their past actions, yet some old fools are going to 'plead' with these very same people 'not to forget Igboland'!

Since the end of the uncivil war, we've had bastard sons and daughters like these fools that have done exactly what these knobheads are doing today, yet where has it left us as a region compared to others in attracting 'federal attention and projects'!? People that hate you will continue to hate you, so you better wise-up and fight for true freedom and not all this nonsense they're asking Buhari for!

Fools!!

philips70:


Well said. If I were Buhari I will give the Igbos whatever they have been denied since the civil war and re-integrate them properly into Nigeria.

abouzaid:
those ppl are there on their own o, the east will never vote apc. if the pdp even put forward a Hausa Fulani candidate in 2019, the eastern voters will simply stay at home than rather vote for any of them. the same fate will also befall apga and obiano knows it. what the eastern voters want is restructuring of Nigeria to avoid one part of the country dominating the others politically. they don't care if ngige gets the sgf or not cos they have gained nothing from this politicians in the past. the current sgf is igbo, what has he achieved for his ppl. they also don't care if buhari marginalizes them in terms of infrastructure knowing his history of doing same as the ptf chairman. such marginalization is what cost him eastern votes and it's continuation would only cause him major problems. i personally don't expect much from the apc government given the known history of its leaders and the impracticability of their campaign promises. they don't have a manifesto or even idea on how to fix Nigeria. buhari latest interview on tvc saw him answering every question with " we will fight corruption, provide employment and infrastructure" it was very nauseating. but i wish him the best cos victory comes from God alone and the corrupt and clueless pdp digged their own grave.

olalat:


Nope, that's not the ultimate. Rochas is going to be the next President of Igbo extraction. After Buhari, power is coming back to the south and of course, everybody knows that igbon reserve it. The question is, who is that Igbo man that has national appeal, that could be accepted across all divides of the country? Its only Rochas I see for now. Not tribalistic Peter Obi that Jonathan was positioning for the job. Definitely not Maligned Orji Uzor Kalu. The Igbos need to put heads together and find a common front from now on. They should stop been vindictive, emotional and egocentric but visionary in their words and actions. I wish them well.

Summary= Some Igbo leaders are begging for contracts like dogs.

You can not reap where you did not sow




P.S. I am Igbo

mcquin:


Nah bro those modafvckers don't need no integration. They need to continuously be marginalised in naija's politics till they grow sense. Even though they are a major ethnic group, they should be marginalised. The Edos, Deltans and Mid-belt deserve more after all the same Igbos say they don't need govt, only business; yes business they have it, so don't give them more.

Igbos want a person that will come begging and licking their ass all day. I heard someone say he'll vote GEJ a million times; I think election for chief-priest in Otuoke is on, he should go vote GEJ there.

Tconphils:
dz selfish men r at it again. belittling n damaging d integrity of Igbo Nation. the North have never supported GEJ buh GEJ still accommodated dem fully dan any other region by way of appointments n development.
These men don't hv to drag Igbo ppls name along every time. if u want an appointment go for it. lobby for it. save ur ppl some face.
Mtchew.

zendy:


These APC people haven't even gotten into office and they already turning into 'PDP'. Look at this one predicting who will become president after Buhari. He doesn't even know if there will be a party called APC in 4 years time or if APC will not turn out to be more unpopular than PDP. Chances are that there won't even be a country called a Nigeria in 4 years time.

philips70:


The best and fastest way to making anyone "grow sense" is to overtly being nice to them even when they don't understand. Nigerians has tried alienation for 44 years it hasn't worked.

Gbawe:


Indeed. Every time I come to nairaland, I have to literally slap myself 'normal' because of how posters like zendy talk aberrantly. Everywhere else in the world, and because of the stone-age problems of our nation, the focus of the people would be on adequate electricity supply, optimal healthcare, bridging our massive infrastructure deficit, developing a modern, modular and robust transport sector, provision of quality education that will assist Nigerians be the sort of solutions providers who can produce first class products and services the world wants, etc , etc, etc.

Yet it is very disappointing to see that some, to the detriment of their own development, prefer to wallow in the mindless hatred of others and the unproductive insistence of holding on to the past to the extent they always prefer to remain bitter and vengeful even when the unique opportunity has arisen for all of us to make a fresh and productive start for the sake of our Nation. Clearly GEJ was a failure. How would it hurt any Nigerian, genuinely desirous of the progress of their own country, to grant Buhari their goodwill, support him, even if temporarily, and hope he delivers so Nigeria can be the great nation God intended her to be ?

I don't think Pa Ikedife is speaking for the Igbo people. He better canvas for his candidates and himself and stop dragging his tribe whose alliance to the PDP is an open secret. People like this and others from the SS are the people giving us bad names and in fact acting against our collective interests

olalat:


I wish advice you to be nationalistic in your utterance and deed. May I ask you, which tribe flock other region most in this country? You talk as if no Igbo man is suffering in d country.

olalat:


And who is going to disintegrate the country? You I guess. Something inside me gingers to give insult of your life but I won't do that for I respect your nativity and the fact that you need more education outside what you were being thought in d classroom. See kid, Nigeria can never break, I repeat, it can never break. If you want to know why, ask with humility, I shall explain to in detail. Some of you need tutorials.

Gbawe:
Dr.Ikedife has nothing to fear. Buhari is a fair and principled man. There is nothing in his character that would allow him to marginalise or mistreat any ethnic group . In fact I suspect Buhari will be especially good to the Igbos because the General realises that old wounds must heal if Nigeria is to get the best out of all her citizens.

The truth is that Igbos can become very fond of and supportive of Buhari, despite their electoral rejection of him, if the General leads all corners of Nigeria well and assist the completion of projects important to the Igbos that the cynical and self-serving GEJ never bothered with. I think Buhari will actually go out of his way to respect and assist Igbos. I would personally, if president, because leaders must always rise above shallow sentiments to unite those they lead and foster the development of reconciliation, inclusion and peaceful coexistence that delivers socio-economic development Of a people. A Nigeria consisting of ethnic groups primed to fight and resist each other always is not good for the prospect of a great Nigeria.
