Why Igbo Must Slave For Others But Will Never Rule Nigeria by MayorofLagos(m): 2:54am On Oct 09, 2018
Mohammed insisted that such move will only prevent the South East from producing Nigeria’s president because, “democracy is a game of numbers,” adding that nobody can tell “people to vote for you because you are being irresponsible.”

Speaking with The Sun, Mohammed maintained that Igbos caused the Civil war that claimed the lives of over one million people.

Mohammed wondered why the same people who caused the Civil war will now turn around to demand for Presidency.

He said, “The Igbo are clamouring for an additional state, one of the reasons they are now talking about Biafra, even though the real reason is that they want to blackmail the North, to concede presidency to them.

“By this means, they will never get any hope for presidency because democracy is a game of numbers. You cannot tell people to vote for you because you are being irresponsible.

Why are Yoruba people so worried that Igbos are rooting for Atiku with an Igbo VP.?



I believe that Yoruba people know that Atiku will win once he picks an Igbo VP.


Atiku now has majority votes of NE, NC, SE and SS


Atiku will split NW votes due to the desire they have to stay longer period in power & also because Buhari's government has made them poorer.

Igbo man has principles and demands that right things are done irrespective of who holds sway. Did Igbos complain during Yaradua or Obj even though Ekwueme was shortchanged in 1999?

You SWtners mock Igbos over Nigeria's leadership and you guys that have had it this long, how are you better than Igbos today? Igbo man can survive under almost every circumstance but we know who depends on govt or the system to survive.

To move the country forward is a task and tribalism will be a poison to it if you guys don't stop this madness.

These captains of the[b]tribalism industry” [/b] have good incentives to always omit the causes of the January 1966 coup preferring instead to dwell only on the coup itself. The reason is simple; It was in their own Western region then known as the “wild wild west” that election rigging, thuggery, violence, arson, mass murders and other forms of corruption and acts of lawlessness that occasioned the January 1966 coup took place as pioneering acts in Nigeria.
Soon after Nigeria got independence the Western region was in turmoil. Premier Ladoke Akintola and Chief Obafemi Awolowo became embroiled in a protracted crisis. By 1962 the crisis led to sustained violence and acts of lawlessness with law makers engaged in vicious physical combats in the Western regional parliament. Amongst serious injuries and other damages, the mace of office was broken. The federal government intervened to curb the lawlessness and violence by imposing a state of emergency and appointing Dr Moses Majekodunmi as interim premier of the Western region on the 29th of June 1962. This became the first imposition of a state of emergency in Nigeria’s history due to heightened levels of lawlessness. Following an alliance between Akintola and Ahmadu Bello, Ladoke Akintola was returned to power on the 31st of December 1962 in spite of protests by Dr Nnamidi Azikiwe who requested fresh elections rather than reinstating Ladoke Akintola.
By 1963, the plot between Akintola, Tafawa Balewa and Ahmadu Bello was perfected and Chief Obafemi Awolowo was arrested for coup plotting/ treason. His trial commenced in earnest and he was alongside some accomplices convicted for treason and jailed for 10 years. This again was the first alleged coup plotting and conviction in Nigerian history. Intent on totally decimating Chief Awolowo, Ladoke Akintola together with vice premier Remi Fani Kayode went into a political alliance with Prime minister Tafawa Balewa and new political party known as the Nigerian National Alliance (NNA) was formed. By this time Dr Nnamidi Azikiwe had realised the folly of entering a coalition with Tafawa Balewa’s government and teamed up with incarcerated Chief Awolowo’s Action group to form the all progressive grand alliance (UPGA).

In 1964, federal elections became due. As usual ethnic chauvinism, intimidation and violence was part of the frenzied campaigning. Remi Kayode and Akintola’s campaign was as usual almost entirely based on tribalism. When the elections were finally held, it was massively rigged in the Western region. Indeed deputy premier Remi Fani Kayode had famously boasted that “there is nothing they can do, whether they vote us or not, we will win.” This statement turned out to be true as massive rigging was orchestrated in the elections. Once again this became the first pioneering act of election rigging by indigenous actors in Nigeria’s history. The announcement of the rigged election results quickly sparked off unprecedented acts of thuggery, violence, arson, mass murders and general acts of lawlessness in the Western region.

Daily mass murders and arson became routine in the Western region (wetie). This violence and lawlessness in the Western region was to continue from 1964 until 1966 when the military lost patience and finally struck.

The Western region was thus a region in crisis from the onset of post-colonial rule. By the time of the military coup, Chief Obafemi Awolowo himself was incarcerated for treason and the region was practically on an uncontrollable violence and trajectory of self destruction for almost two years from 1964 to 1966. At the same time that the Western region was aflame the Eastern region was calm and democratic. Unlike the Western region there were no cases of election rigging, thuggery or other such acts of lawlessness in the East. In the North there was sporadic violence in the TIV division which was put down by the military.

Of all the regions, the western region was torn the most by crisis and acts of lawlessness which eventually occasioned the coup. If the leadership of the Western region had played by the rules and avoided the infighting, the election rigging, the thuggery, the planning of a coup in 1963, the arson, the mass murders and other such corrupt acts and vices many of which were being introduced for the first time in Nigeria and which incidentally continues to haunt the nation to date, there would have been no coup and Nigeria would no doubt have immensely benefited from a functional democracy devoid of election rigging, thuggery and violence as it obtains in many progressive nations around the world.

Yorubas created the crisis that occasioned the coup and whose region the coup saved from self destruction are some of the biggest ungrateful noisemakers who peddle the propaganda of colouring an anti corruption revolutionary coup with patriotic ideals very similar to that of Flt Lt Jerry Rawlings in a tribal garb. In Ghana, Jerry Rawlings led a coup that eliminated three former heads of state, top military officers and top members of the judiciary. Not one of those killed was from Jerry Rawlings Ewe tribe, but Ghanaians didn’t spew tribalism into the coup and Ghana is better for it. With too many vultures and opportunists...preying on tribalism in Nigeria the story was bound to be different and thus a coup driven out of patriotism and obvious anger at the state of affairs was reconstructed as an Igbo coup and the worms were let out from the woodwork.

In sum, the Yoruba political leadership, as mentioned by Balarabe Musa, has shown itself over the years to be incapable of rising above narrow tribal interests and reciprocating goodwill from other sections of the country by treating other groups with respect. Practically every crisis in Nigeria since independence has its roots in this attitude.
