The process of becoming Nigeria president is clear. They don't handover the president of Nigeria to a tribe. You have to contest and seek for our vote.
I think you are 100% right.

ATERI:
During the Second Republic (1979-1983) MKO Abiola was a member of the ruling National Party of Nigeria. As the first term of President Shagari was coming to an end, MKO Abiola approached the President to let him know that he too ( i.e MKO Abiola ) was interested in becoming the president of Nigeria after Shagari. It was Umar Dikko that responded, and told MKO Abiola point blank that there was no vacancy in the Presidency. Out of frustration, MKO Abiola left NPN. This is relevant because the most important things in politics are unplanned.
Victor Hugo said, " All the forces in the world are not so powerful as an idea whose time has come". In other words, no one can stop an idea whose time has come. The North used to tell anyone from the South that, since the North produces nothing, the North should be allowed to remain in power since the South own the resources; that was the Nigeria I grew up in. The Northern oligarchy was cocky and unapologetic about their domination of the country from 1979-1999. Well, the rest is history!.
No-one in the country today can argue against an Igbo presidency, but how do we bring that about? The first thing is for Ndigbo to understand that, the easiest demographic to win over is the younger generation, but you are not going to win them over by coming online expressing hatred for everybody. In other words, Igbos need more people like the OP of this thread and less of madam HammerTheirPapa.
The moment you get right on your side, then you can create your own momentum. And once you get both right and momentum on your side, the rest would be easy. One day, it would be the turn of the South to produce the President of Nigeria, it shall be difficult to argue against an Igbo Presidency.
I think you are right. It is time for an Igbo man or woman to become the president of Nigeria but the Igbos spewing hatred for other tribes are the ones not helping matters. They should demonstrate more maturity in their comments. You don't necessarily reply hatred with hatred.

They don't want their person at the top but they are ready to kill and die to ensure ike ekweremadu is not removed from the deputy position to the mesujamba ?



These people are living in denial and they are confused.
Sir, I really don't understand your assertion. Are you saying that they should rather insist that Igbo man should be Senate President instead of deputy? But you know that the best they can get for now is the deputy which sine people even want to take away from Ekweremadu. But come 2019 God-willing, a Nigerian of Igbo extraction may just become the president of Nigeria for enhanced unity, peace, equity and progress.
