he’s a first time senator. the national assembly rule says the candidate must be a returner, meaning 2nd time or 3rd time senator.

so as much as we like it, it can’t happen due to rules.

House rules can be changed. It's not a constitution.

Stolen from who? Peter Obi can't win president even in open ballot system. His religion and ethnic cards can not do more than that.

As for me, Akpabio deserve it

Akpabio delivered a lot of votes for the APC in Akwa Ibom

If is not that Oshiomole is a first time Senator, I would have prefer him been the Senate president.

Six senate seats from the south east is a lot. Let’s give our SE brothers a chance on the national table.

I understand emotions are high as a result of the divisive nature of the recently concluded election but we must look at the bigger picture beyond politics and emotions. The Igbos are part of the tripod holding Nigeria together. They’ve been out of National relevance for about 8 years now. This really pushed them to completely vote in a very clannish way in the last election.

Despite the fact that Tinubu is from the SW and Atiku is from the NW, both candidates barely got 60% of total vote cast in their regions. That goes to show the two regions were not desperate for the presidency unlike the SE that voted over 90% for Peter Obi. Shutting them out again for another four years will further push them to become more clannish in their politics and further hate the rest of Nigeria.

That’s why I feel we need to make the necessary concessions to help them heal. Ceding the SP to the SE will not make them embrace APC or Bola Tinubu. However, it will be a victory for the few liberals among them to build on. It can start the healing process. We should support any effort to help heal and unite the country.

Thats the reason l pity those lgbos pushing for Tinubu agenda in SE like Umahi and Uzodinma. It's winner take it all. Umahi and co should not be considered for any thing.
Tinubu presidency is SW agenda.

When Akeredolu started that Southern Governors bruhaha, l knew it Tinubu agenda he was pushing.

You're yet to cry your eyes out! If you wanted anything from APC, you should have voted for it but you didn't yet you wanted something out of it? The nerves! Worse is the Ungrateful toxic act of you people. The senate president should be rather given to those who will appreciate it!

It's only Umahi I even have pity for. He was almost voted out but he managed to get himself in. He was the only one I had even thought Tinubu should give ministerial appointment if he didn't get voted into the senate.

Bro, one thing you are missing about this issue is, you see after the election, both losers and winners always reflect on where they get votes from which they normally use to distribute appointments.

We can see from the first set of Buhari ministers where SW got most of the juicy position, which northerners reciprocated that same gestures in this election.

Politics is far more above emotion and sentiment. Who do you think is the highest Senator from SE in Apc, it's Orji Kalu, now if Kalu can win his own senate seat convincingly, how come Tinubu received poor votes from Kalu's senatorial seat? It simply means Kalu worked against Tinubu's presidency cos he already made himself clear before the election that if Apc can't microzone the party ticket to SE, northerners should have it, infact who did Kalu support in Apc primary?

I’m advocating for the SE to get the SP so as to shame divisive hardliners like you. Characters like you will be very happy if SE is denied the SP. You will go about telling whoever cares to listen that Tinubu and APC hate the Igbos so much that they even denied them the SP despite producing six senators. We won’t allow you further divide the country.

For liberal and open minded Igbos like Umahi and the few that came out to vote for Tinubu, we must give them a win to build on. For those who want to heal, we must make the necessary sacrifices to help them heal. We will not allow divisive characters like you lead the narrative with your negativity. We will change the narrative under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu because a United Nigeria will work for everybody.

No. It's not deserved and won't be appreciated. We need to learn our lessons. Give the SP to a deserving region.

Umahi is a performer. With proper negotiation and concession, he can be elected senate president. He’s even more acceptable to the larger Igbo population than Orji Uzor Kalu.

Sometimes you make peace with those who do not like you. That is Christ like

Even on the cross , Jesus said father forgive them because they did not know what they were saying.

When we look at the negative sides , we can also look at the positive sides from David Umahi, Uzodima and the rest.

Umahi truly deserves the SP. He is truly a goal getter and his works speak for him in Ebonyi.

I understand you my brother, but we still need to respect Umahi and the others who truly sincerely worked for the party.

Just look at the results from Ebonyi, despite the hostile environment. He came with 3 senators and some votes during the presidential election
