Question To All Igbos And Pdp Supporters by Kingsley1000(m): 10:31am On Oct 02, 2015
Amid the speculations that pdp is planning to zone their2019 precidential candidate to the north...we all know that most the party faithfuls and majority of the party members are igbos,the nucleus of the party is southeasters,,,taking cognizance of the fact that we despise apc,they don't have much supporters here....what if apc decides to zone theirS to south east(perhaps to okorocha or ngige)as an igbo man(or pdp supporter),would you rather vote for pdp and why would you do that?

I'll vote my Governor Rochas...

I ain't a tribalist, But I'll love to see an Igbo President

Is PDP an Igbo Party? Why did OBJ in 2007 pick a SouthSouth Dude as VP Leaving all Igbo candidates behind?

Even in 2019 I won't be surprised if PDP presents a Northern President and a VP from SS/SW....

Very Simple Rochas Has a Strong following in the north than any current Igbo candidate Alive, If Rochas can strike an accord with SW gurus e.g Tinubu,OBJ and also gain 90% votes in South South I think it's feasible..

But,
1) I'm not too sure if SouthSouth will give an Igbo President the kind of support we gave them in 2015,
2) Lol I don't know if the Yorubas will trust an Igbo President.. (Tho the hatred might just be online tho)

well it all depends...My opinion tho

we're just assuming,and who said igbo presidency isnt achievable?as it stands now,i dont think buhari will continue after 2019,he's feeble and old....another 2nd in rank in apc is ROCHAS,so it's under probability
Re: Question To All Igbos And Pdp Supporters by Lordave: 10:53am On Oct 02, 2015
With the way Nigeria is and where it's heading to, no fücking Igbo man in his right senses will give a fûck about partisan politics(in federal level), and and who becomes president in 2019.
Most of the fools you see crying about ministerial appointments are those lazy ones that have only enriched themselves and their families through loopholes in the government.

Sensible people like me want to see a better grassroot government over federal appointments and governance. I really care more about my state's wellbeing than Nigeria.. as far as I'm concerned, Nigeria central politics can go to hell and I wish to see the Igbo nation govern itself one day, hence I pray Igbo man never becomes president in this country (it's of no tangible benefit).

in my opinion, if Buhari is recontesting in 2019, PDP will have no choice than to zone theirs to the North also, even with that. PDP chances is slimmer. But if Buhari is not going beyond 2019, PDP might think outside Northern presidency. Even with this. PDP is still in a sorry state.

Rochas is a dead case!
He's hated by majority of Igbos, how is this majority going to put behind their hatred for Rochas to see him become president of Nigeria and benefit nothing from it?

I laugh really hard when people talk of Rochas running for 2019 presidency. It actually means that you all think that an Hausa man will ignore his brother, Mohammed to vote for an Okorocha who has been repeatedly denied by his people.

Igbo President is just a mirage, we can do more building our region or better still agitate for a country of our own where you and I and Okorocha have a realistic chance of being a president.

Most Nairalanders here are kids and sorry to say unemployed youths/ Party Online agents who just go about creating various hate threads. eg Most companies, Banks,Factories in major cities how many times have you seen Igbo and Yoruba colleagues insulting themselves, Igbos work in Yoruba owned companies (Honeywell, Zenon Oil, Obat Petroleum etc) and Yorubas work in Igbo Owned Companies (GreenLife,Coscharis, Emzor, Orange Drugs) and cooperation goes on and on...The Recent Sack of workers by Lacasera company, Did you see the yoruba workers protesting differently From the Igbo workers?

@Op PDP is not an igbo party we only supported Jonathan because we saw many attributes of a great democrat in him more than our past leaders(so you guys should stop painting PDP as if igbos are championing their cause) and whether Okorocha or ngige is presented as APC presidential candidate we dont care, we dont vote along tribal line ok.... Okorocha as a governor and Ngige if appointed as a minister has great opportunity to showcase their worth and creativity if they fail and APC still insisted to bring them out as their candidate then let them be ready for a shocker.......... If PDP or APGA or any other party presents a more promising candidate that can lead the country then who are we to vote incompetent fellow who didnt show creativity in his little assignment to a bigger post........ Igbos are democrats and republicans even before the white man came..........and before we continue to discuss this, Also pray that Biafra is not achieved before then...

Exactly if Buhari decides to recontest in 2019 I don't see him loosing at all, PDP has to build up for 2023

I beg to differ bro, 1st of all I don't think Most/All Nairalanders are kids or unemployed graduates. I am an ardent member of this forum and I am gainfully employed and even a professional in my field. I have my reservations about igbos and I am sure millions of other Yorubas have their issue with igbos too.

I have work in an office where I have Igbo colleagues and we relate professionally but that doesn't mean we don't hold grudges against each others' tribes deep down our hearts. The cooperation you see real time is just pretence and an attempt at National Unity or political correctness.

Yorubas would have been able to compromise and vote Rocha's Okorocha ( I love Rochas as a politician of Igbo extraction due to being detribalised) but the recent happenings in the Political arena of Nigeria and the hate being peddled online (Believe me when I say Nairaland and other Online platforms are radicalizing mostly Yoruba's) has ruined any chances of political cooperation between these 2 tribes.

Igbos lost the commissioner seat in the Lagos cabinet due to the realisation of majority of Yorubas that the igbos hated us. The igbos have always hated Yorubas since after the Civil War but the Yorubas never knew or suspected until the igbos got really close to the Presidency via Good luck Jonathan's ascendancy to the Office of President which gave the igbos the opportunity to show their deep seated hate for Yoruba. The latest development now is that the Yorubas now know you hate them and also wish to take over their most developed state (Lagos) and are now planning to protect themselves and interests. Now tell me brother, do you think the Yorubas will be foolish enough to vote for an Igbo President when they are now aware of the hate igbos have for them?

The foregoing my brother is the fact of the issue as far as Nigeria/igbo-Yoruba relations are concerned. Anybody that tells you anything contrary to the above is deceiving you.

when you see yourself as not being part of the problem , rather you see yourselves as the saints and victims always, then you are standing alone and also making your neighbors to suspect you.


Yoruba didnt get the presidency by licking the arse of the north, they worked for it. The north supported obj even when the Yoruba said 'NO' to him, you don't get that asslicking, but by being true to yourself. Igbos have no political direction and this is the problem.

Living in the North doesn't change anything. It won't make Hassan hesitate in slicing your throat at the slightest religious or political provoke(never gonna happen though).

Most ethnic groups in Nigeria are on their own in the political sphere except the so called Hausa-Fulani.
Nigeria politics is a politics of deceit and unending want to subdue a seeking partner. No proper and sensible compromises and no tangible considerations. Greed is inevitable and vengeance is a priority.

Man, Nigeria is a mistake, it's unfortunate we've had to deal with the consequences till now and I'm disappointed you think one of us really has a shot in piloting the affairs of this country.

Did my post in anyway suggest that I feel like Igbos are victims of anything?
yes only the Hausas voted Obasanjo and he won, the Igbos voted Buhari I suppose?

Talking about being a victim, isn't it obvious Igbos are victims of 'hate' in Nigeria?
I don't want to go that way, anyway.

How did Obasanjo's regime positively impact the South West? That's is where my argument is rooted in.

How is being truthful and playing a politics of partnership and at the same time negligence going to improve the wellbeing of Igbos in Nigeria?

How more developed is the South South now compared to when GEJ was still a Governor?

I think the South east can govern this country. But they just need others to trust them with power. I don't think they are doing enough to build that level of trust required to gain support of major tribes.
