The Presidency Of Nigeria Should Not Be The Focus Of Igbos In 2023 by gidgiddy: 10:16am On Mar 01, 2019
My fellow Igbos, I urge you all not to distracted by the so called "2023 Igbo presidency".

Please ask all these people shouting Igbo presidency 2023 what they gained out of the presidency when it was their turn?

Ask the Yoruba man what he got out of OBJ's 8 year rule

Ask Ijaws what they got out of GEJ's 5 year rule

Ask Platue people what they got out of Gowons 9 year rule

Ask Daura people, who don't have light, what thay have gained out of Buhari's 4 year rule.

Besides the "bragging rights" to have produced the president, these people gained nothing. Igbos themselves have the same bragging rights, we have held every political position in Nigeria at least twice, we have nothing to prove.

My people, what we should be talking about is a restructured Nigeria where Igbos will get their own region and control of their resources or we talk about self determination and independence

These are the only two things that matter. The office president of Nigeria has only psychological value. If that office has not helped those who held it in the past, it wont help anyone who holds it in the future


Restructuring or independence is what the Igbo nation should strive for! They are what will matter in the future, not who sits in Aso Rock

Onye were not, ya nuru!

You are very correct Sir.

A restructured Nigeria is the best we Igbos will benefit from.

Even The Yorubas will benefit more than any other region, because for instance if a state like Lagos is allowed to manage and control all the ports in the city and only remit let's say 50% to FG. Lagos state will be richer than 20 African countries put together.

The North west and North east will be forced to be more responsible by harnessing the mineral resources in their land and not rely on the oil money from South South.

North Central will improve their agricultural products and be exporting them in large quantity.

South East will be the Industrial hub of the Nation.

South South will be richer than some Arab countries.

And Nigeria will be the Jewel of the Black Nation.
