"Buhari’s 2nd term is the fastest route to enthronement of Nigeria president of Igbo extraction. Any other northerner elected will do 8 years, but Mr President going by the constitution has only four years left.

"Therefore, we looked at the fact that there is a zoning convention that the northern elite in the enlightened patriotic interest bestowed on the Nigerian 4th republic. We were there when the north persuaded the late Abubakar Rimi not to run under the platform of the PDP in Jos presidential primary in 1999. They also persuaded Dr Olusola Saraki of blessed memory who could have won the APP ticket not to run in Kaduna. That was the beginning of the zoning or rotation convention journey.

"The first lot fell on the South-west and incidentally we voted for the South-west candidate – former President Olusegun Obasanjo. We voted for him in spite of the fact that the late Dr. Alex Ekwueme our son was shoved aside. In fact we voted for his two tenures; in 1999 and 2003.

"This is payback time, because my people even neglected Buhari who had our own brother the late Oyi of Oyi, Rt.Hon. Dr Chuba Okadigbo as his running mate in 2003. In 2007, 2011 and 2015 we didn’t vote for Buhari. In spite of the fact that we didn’t vote for Mr. President he still included us in his broad base critical infrastructural development of Nigeria.

"As I said before, if you look at the politics as well, zoning confirms the fact that Buhari is the only northerner in 2019 who will do only four years. All we are saying is that if we vote for him it enhances our chances of appealing to our brothers in the South-west who have had eight years and South-south five years plus, since we entered the fourth republic. Equity and justice is on our side.

"We are not talking from the 1960s because if we recount our only six months span of General Aguiyi Ironsi, our equity and justice canvas resonates.

"Our primary duty is vote for Buhari and appeal to our South west and South-south brothers, especially because we voted ex-presidents Obasanjo and Jonathan massively. We also voted for them massively in 1999, 2003, 2007, 2011 and 2015.

"In real politics out of the three regions of the south; two of them have had a taste of the presidency, so we have a moral force on our side, we have justice on our side, we have equity on our side and if you allow any other northerner to have the presidency in 2019 outside Buhari it then means you are talking of God knows when.

"We cannot afford unforced error, as tennis players will admonish. So why don’t we fasten the journey more so when we have something handy; the critical infrastructure in our bosom?

"These are part of the points we are making, that those who want to bite the big apple must also align in the mainstream of the Nigerian politics. The best option is to endorse Buhari and vote for him accordingly.

"Thirdly, we endorsed him because we want to send clear message to our brothers and sisters from the South-east that collectively we owe it to ourselves to position ourselves better than others.

"For we don’t care who Nigerians will choose, but let it be from our kindred for equity and justice to prevail. Our simple appeal is to our brothers and sisters who are not members of APC to join us in this effort to get President Buhari elected."

It is appointed unto Buhari to win in 2019. After that comes Igbo Presidency.

Buhari 2019 is too sure but Igbo 2023 depends on certain happenings.

This is a time for great men. A time to bring impossibilities to the realm of the possible. A time for men who have seen tomorrow to cry from the wilderness; " The Igbo President is coming! Prepare the way. Set your houses in order, for great will be the coming of the Igbo President.

2023 is the appointed year, and 2019 is the year of the great seed. Igbos must do their duty in 2019.

what is so special about the presidency?.we don't need it

self deceiver.
Which Igbo presidency? Is there any law saying Igbos will be president in 2023?
Abeg use your brain.
Anyways true Igbos are not deceived.

So until there is a law stipulating that Ibo must be President in 2023, before you start preparing for the 2023 election?

Igbodefender it is now i realised that you are either working for osita okechukwu or you are osita okechukwu. Tell buhari that he is not welcomed in the east.

Any Igbo man that values Nigerian presidency and loses sleep over it, is of all men, most to be pitied.

It can't happen
No sane Nigerian will make a mistake twice on the alter of religious and tribal politicking


We can't last another four years under the dullard of daura.... Ask middle belt people

To kick Buhari back to daura is a task that must be achieved... All hands must be on deck

The guy behind the igbodefender moniker is a stooge... You probably can't take him serious...


We don't need any presidency
They can shove it where the sun doesn't shine

What we want is good governance that will benefit all

"Buhari’s 2nd term is the fastest route to enthronement of Nigeria president of Igbo extraction. Any other northerner elected will do 8 years, but Mr President going by the constitution has only four years left."


Greek gift.
We need Nigeria to move forward. Four more years of Buhari and he will completely bury the country.

8years with the north in power and with people alive to see another day is better than pursuing selfish interest with no country left to govern.

Using Pythagoras' theorem to solve a third degree Fourier transform. Very very suicidal calculation there.

Voting Buhari "massively" is nothing but another conquered zone, politically, to them fulanis.

Thomas Edison said"In every disaster, there's a capital (opportunity, in this case)".

The middlebelt is already in disarray, decrying, regretting their full blast support to the fulanis in last presidential election. It wouldn't be bad if the South East align with middle belt and South South. I don't know about South West. But it seems they keep having this Tom and Jerry trust issue.
It'll be good if they could give a try.


My opinion.

So they are now bringing up this issue of igbo presidency of 2023 as if they are so sure that an igbo man will be elected president come 2023

Greek gift
The southeast zone should not fall for this

The southeast zone should be allowed to vote whomever they wish to vote for and not cajoling them with 2023 igbo presidency

all these fake igbo immigrants forming igbos
just like we have fake yerobas in the SW the yeroba Muslims

THUNDER DECEND on BON AND ITS CHIEF..

Buhari is a Devil's Incarnate and is unfit and incapable to run the affairs of this Great Nation....

I care less about Igbo hausa or Yoruba jagons...
All we need is a Man or woman that Fears and Reverence GOD ALMIGHTY .

all we need is a President as the current President of Zambia..

All we need is a Man/woman with the Heart of a Donald Trump...

To hell with Tribal thrash....

Let me ask you,
Do you think if an igboman or even SS or yoruba or middlebelt is present by Apc, and a northern muslim is presented by pdp, the north will vote Igbo or any other tribe?
The northern vote may not decide the president but the north controls everything.
Obansanjo made it because there was an agreement to hand over to the sw. All parties were made /forced to present a yoruba candidate so it was like it must be a yoruba no matter what. That's the only way things like this can happen or rotational presidency amongst regions. If not you can't stop anyone from voting their choice or stop any party from presenting candidates from where ever.
Moreover the electoral system here is rubbish, votes don't count.

Abeg help me ask am. Their actions can lead to the continued absense of dividends of citizenship to Igbos. Meanwhile Ndigbo remain citizens of Nigeria.

I read your comment but I dont agree with them. Thinking like yours is why it will be very difficult for an Igbo to become President. Uou need to change your line of thinking and convince others to change too. I know that is almost another impossible task. Jonathan from the minority tribe is President in 2011 despite North opposition.
