Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by EzeUche2(m): 5:03pm On May 04, 2011 |
If he has to comment like that, that means that the perception of ACN is a Yoruba Party. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Gbawe: 6:24pm On May 04, 2011 |
EzeUche_: No . I think Ngige , as a detribalised Nigerian, is simply embarrassed , to the extent he has to speak, over how some folks cannot see the big picture to understand that issues have never being about regional Parties and "area fathers" . The main issue is about the good guys , everywhere , getting the better of the misrulers for the sake of Nigeria's development . |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by bashr4: 6:33pm On May 04, 2011 |
its the yorubas that started calling it a yoruba party and thats what is stalling their progress in other regions just like how apga have been tagged and igbo party and CPC northern party , they dont see us going about calling PDP an igbo party because it was founded by the igbos. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Nobody: 6:35pm On May 04, 2011 |
wetin in 2007, they would have called ac/acn a lagos party in 2011, they are calling acn a sw party in 2015, what will they be saying dont worry, broom coming soon to state near you 1 Like |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Beaf: 6:50pm On May 04, 2011 |
bashr4: Exactly. Right here on NL, there are bigots like Gbawe, Eko Ile, Ekt_bear etc that very aggressively push ACN as an ethnic party, even to the point of disgusting bigotry. The founders of the party actively claim it is a Yoruba party and act out such claims by making ethnically bigoted statements against other sections of the country (eg Tinubu's notorious "drunken fisherman" with "capsized canoes" coming to land to seek votes quip). Unsurprisingly, other sections of the country are beginning to percieve ACN as a fascist party that must be excluded from their territories like a dominating cancer. [Quote author=Ezeuche] If he has to comment like that, that means that the perception of ACN is a Yoruba Party. [/quote] Precisely. |

bashr4: You are a mo/r/on Pray tell, who founded PDP? Mention the illustrious Igbo man, good enough, and capable enough to found a credible, well organized national party? FYI, PDP was founded mostly by the Northerners. The manifesto was written 'SOLELY' by an illustrious Yoruba son. The biggest financier of PDP are northerners. Just because they make you PDP chairman at one time or the other in no way make PDP an Igbo party. If at all anything, it is an Hausa party. What a m/o/r/o/n. The only igbo parties that are doing fairly well are PPA and APGA, which are nothing more than secondary school asscociations The biggest political machinery that heralded the creation of PDP was the Shehu yar'adua movement which metamorphosed into the PDM under the control of Atiku. The PDM was effectively demolished by OBJ when it was getting out of control. |

zstranger: ACN is already having in-fighting and you dare talk about other parties. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by zstranger: 7:11pm On May 04, 2011 |
^^^ At least, we agree that the PDP was not founded by incompetent Ndigbo. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Chyz2: 7:13pm On May 04, 2011 |
zstranger: That's because Igbos aren't incompetent. Get it together,omo. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Gbawe: 7:14pm On May 04, 2011 |
oyb: The ACN know that the PDP will always do what it does best i.e deliberate misrule (as the Americans hinted) in pandering to self-interest while poverty and underdevelopment remains the fate of most Nigerians. Why align yourself with those who , barring a miracle, are probably destined for future irrelevance? Ngige is a visionary chap. He is focused on his region yet savvy enough to keep an eye on the future. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Eziachi: 7:15pm On May 04, 2011 |
Even before Ngige said it, I had always said that those calling ACN a Yoruba party are just ignorant. Just because they have strong base in the SW doesn't make them so and I am sure if not for rigging they would have registered a firm presence in places like Akwa Ibom, Adamawa, Benue, Imo and Rivers state. Even by body language, Yoruba parties often comes with two alphbets names and not three like ACN. Yorubas on Nairaland are even the worse enemies of ACN being called a Yoruba party based on their "We & Them" attitude when it come to ACN. If they they fail to rig Rochas out in Imo he has the money and presence to do great things like Tinubu did with APGA in Igboland, something that was expected of Peter Obi, but he turned out to be a political nympho, but its likely that Rochas will return back to PDP. You have to respect Ngige for standing alone, rather going back to those that once wanted to kill him but only time will tell if he will keep to his word. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Beaf: 7:16pm On May 04, 2011 |
zstranger: Don't be in a hurry to haul abuse, especially when you are wrong (at least by your own standards): Peoples Democratic Party came into being on the 19th August, 1998. It was formed by a group called G.34 Committee headed by Dr. Alex Ekwueme, the Vice-President of Nigeria in the Second Republic. http://globaljournals.org/GJHSS_Volume11/4-Challenges-of-Internal-Democracy-in-Nigeria%20s.pdf |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by bashr4: 7:18pm On May 04, 2011 |
zstranger: idi-o-t PDP was founded by Dr Alex Ekwueme so it is an igbo party if ACN is a yoruba party ,you can go jump off the bridge. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Beaf: 7:22pm On May 04, 2011 |
More for the zstranger's and other "creators" of history. The history of Nigeria’s current democratic dispensation will not be complete without the mention of Dr. Alex Ekwueme. The seasoned architect and multidisciplinary degree holder was founder and Chairman of the Institute of Civil Society, an organisation that gave birth to the G34. The history to G34 and the formation of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party is all well known. http://www.punchng.com/Articl.aspx?theartic=Art201102132521814 You were one of the leaders of G-34 that fought for return of democracy. Is the group dead? http://www.vanguardngr.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=5256&Itemid=0 |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by seanet02: 7:24pm On May 04, 2011 |
Beaf:Why do you enjoy playing Politics with double standards- you said Tinubu called gej i drunken fisherman Did he just said? Was it not that clueless ediot that was calling his betters Rascals? case of double standards you are known for. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by bashr4: 7:24pm On May 04, 2011 |
for Chris ngige to make such statement that meand theres already a perception of ACN being a yoruba part , yorubas need to be careful especially over the internet, like i said PDP would not have gone far it they started with the we are igbo party mentality APGA and PPA came out with. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Gbawe: 7:29pm On May 04, 2011 |
Eziachi: Indeed. Most do not appreciate , because of poor political sophistication, that there is a lot of "lost in translation" interpretation over what men like Tinubu and Ngige do and say. Ultimately , the end justifies the means . Tinubu is justified today . I think we will see , in future, that Ngige has the personality , exposure and germane outlook , pertinent to National politics, to shape SE political ideology positively . |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Beaf: 7:32pm On May 04, 2011 |
seanet02: Let Tinubu live with the consequences, if a man slights you directly, you do not slight his ethnicity or section in return. There were enough signals even for the blind, but Tinubu persisted; if he wishes to practice fascist politics, then he must be prepared for the fallout. Were there issues between SS and SW before Tinubu's statements? There were none, he invented tensions for his own shortsighted purposes; well, the consequences are here. Let the Ngige's continue denying the obvious, we can only be patient, because they will unfailingly return to the roots that nurture them. No to fascism and ethnic bigotry. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Chyz2: 7:34pm On May 04, 2011 |
Gbawe: Pretty bold words,especially from someone who has never spoken so gallantly about Ngige before his joining ACN. It's clear that people are only good in your(yorubas) eyes if they conform to your ways/entities.Funny. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by seanet02: 7:48pm On May 04, 2011 |
Beaf:So when he called south West leaders as Rascals he did not generalize abi? You double standard can not be matched anywhere |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Gbawe: 7:50pm On May 04, 2011 |
Chyz*: Why not do some research that will enable you refrain from tarnishing the image of good folks you wish to cover in the myopic toga of ethnicity you operate with ? I won't do your hardwork for you but please search NL archives to see that I have always rated Ngige . Go and dig up some of the threads (especially the exchanges between me and Mikeansy) pertaining to the last Anambra guber elections to see what I think of Ngige. If you thing Nigerians don't exist who admire other good/distinguished Nigerians enduringly , regardless of their region of origin, then you are too far gone in bigotry. While you are seaching , you should also look for threads where I stated that Ngige would be a good choice to partner Ribadu back then , as VP candidate, before the Party settled for Adeola. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by ektbear: 9:36pm On May 04, 2011 |
Well said, Ngige. @Beaf: Keep my name out of your mouth, cvnt. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Rhino5dm: 9:56pm On May 04, 2011 |

Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Obiagu1(m): 9:58pm On May 04, 2011 |
Beaf: Don't mind them, when I said PDP was an Igbo party, I was attacked by the Yorubas including EzeUche. I followed the formation of PDP and knew what I was saying. We had 3 parties in 1998/1999: APP (Northern Party), AD (Yoruba Party) and PDP (Igbo Party) but only PDP turned out to become national while others are constantly gripping on the last straw to survive. Like PDP, ACN was not founded by Tinubu alone becomes he has to find other people from other regions to form the party. Ngige was a founding member of ACN too. Note: I had to call PDP an Igbo party because of the way Yorubas were behaving. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by EzeUche2(m): 10:01pm On May 04, 2011 |
^^^ I wont deny it, I did attack you. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Nobody: 10:02pm On May 04, 2011 |
Interesting. . So why did the party win all contested electoral positions in the south west? |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by EzeUche2(m): 10:07pm On May 04, 2011 |
J12: Now that is a wonderful question. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by EzeUche2(m): 10:08pm On May 04, 2011 |
Ngige reminds me of the one black guy who works for an all white company. The company says that they are not an all-white company, because they have that one black man. As Americans say, Ngige is the token non-Yoruba. |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by Rhino5dm: 10:20pm On May 04, 2011 |
For all those bringing Alex Ekweme's name as a factor. PDP was form in Late Abubakar Rimi's house in Kano. They only introduce Alex Ekweme as a figure head and promise him the ticket of presidency of which he foolishly believe. After then, solomon lar and Ibb brought out OBJ to reap where the pathetic igbo has sow.(Igbos are alway use and dump) PDP is indeed igbo party with only deputy senate president as the highest political office alloted to them. Lmao! |
Re: ACN Not A Yoruba Party, Says Ngige by dayokanu(m): 10:24pm On May 04, 2011 |
J12: Because of all major parties they presented the better candidates. Can someone help with the composition of this G34? |
