I'm Under Pressure To Support Buhari - Umahi by ThinkSmarter: 7:44pm On Jan 27, 2019
From Magnus Eze, Enugu

Chairman of South East Governors’ Forum and Governor of Ebonyi State, Chief David Umahi, has said that he is under intense pressure to support President Muhammadu Buhari, candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the February 16 polls.

Chairman, Strategy Committee of Divine Mandate; Umahi’s campaign organisation, Chief Emmanuel Igwe who made the disclosure, yesterday, said all the governor asked of the president is to allow free, fair and credible election in the state.

He said that Umahi, as a mark of respect for the president, had promised to mobilise 2000 PDP members to come out and receive the president during his campaign stopover in Abakaliki, the state capital, this week. His words: “The governor wishes Buhari and his entourage a happy stay as APC Presidential Campaign Council visits Ebonyi on the 30th of January, 2019. Governor Umahi wishes to put it on record that the President, Muhammad Buhari is his personal friend and a friend of the state. He has much respect for the office of the president. The Governor has been under pressure to support the re-election of my president by APC bigwigs especially the party chairman, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, Chibuike Amaechi just to mention but a few who come under various guises that the APC has no interest in Ebonyi guber race.

“The Governor has no need for external forces to win convincingly in Ebonyi since over 95 per cent of the electorate is supporting his re-election. The Governor has been too magnanimous to the APC by donating the sum of five million naira to her guber candidate, Senator Sonni Ogbuoji to enable him print campaign posters and promised to mobilize two thousand people that will welcome Mr President on the proposed campaign rally,” Igwe stated.

Warning that Ebonyi people will resist any form of manipulation or rigging and intimidation with the last drop of their blood; Umahi urged the APC presidential campaign council to make out time and inspect both completed and ongoing projects in the state during their campaign tour.

Buhari the jihadist is trying to force himself on everyone, the end of tyrants are always bad, look at the likes of Hitler, abacha, general Tito, Mussolini where did they all end. Nigerians are gradually loosing themselves from this bondage of APC government, buhari's plan to turn the country to a blood feasting ground will never happen, this is the time to rewrite a history for ourselves, this is a time to give our unborn children a good future, this is the time where our children must remember the heorics actions of their fathers, let us stop this barbaric government, the change starts with you.

The trait being exhibited by the Igbo People of Nigeria is Inherent.
Igboman hates to be under someone.
That's why back in the ages, Igbo had no King[s] and had to break their communities into Various Autonomous communities according to their ancestry and were being governed by Council of Elders.
That made the colonial masters to appoint warrant chiefs in Igbo lands to enable them in their Indirect Rule.
That being said, that I have listed above made the Igbo man in the modern Nigeria very uncomfortable to be under the Leadership of a fellow black man.
Yes, the Igbo has high ego, pride that have made the average Igbo man think that he is superior to any other Black African tribe.
The Fulani of Nigeria also exhibit the same trait, hence their constant political clash with the Igbo people of Nigeria.
I was prompted to articulate this write-up cause of the constant feud between most Igbo and Buhari's administration.
As u can see from the first to comment and other commenters here.
Note: A bukwam' nwafor Igbo

Did i not say it. I expect Obiano to come out and say something similar.

If Obiano wants to join APC, he should go right ahead and stop being so cowardly about it. Same with Dave Umahi.

Only a fool can support a president who can't debate his opponents.

Only a fool can support a president who hardly knows what is happening around him due to ill-health and old age.
