LawLab247:
Nothing is given, everything is up for the taking

flyingpig:
no we must get it from both parties

loopman:
With this “pity us” approach of strategy, it will take the Igbos very long time to get their wish.

Nigeria as it is, is very toxic due to the acts and attitude of the Igbos after GEJ lost in 2015 and Atiku’s in 2019. They are not in the good books of the two major ethnic groups in Nigeria at the moment.

fulanimafia:


They are trying so hard to pretend not to see the obvious.

Let them continue deceiving themselves till 2023 elections punches them in the face.

We are waiting patiently.

Udopasa:


If you ain't being stupid, why didn't you ask OBJ in 1998/9 to go to AD to contest or you weren't born then?

Udopasa:


Nobody is being deceived.

Continue with the wait.

Udopasa:


Same way the presidency in 1999 was up for takes?

loopman:


The way you rub GEJ in 2015

Nigerians will show you how not to reward foolishness and stupidity that Igbos have been displaying since 2015

LawLab247:


It was an election and someone emerged. It was not an appointment.

fulanimafia:


Really? Lol.

So what do you make of APC's refusal to zone the Presidential ticket to any region (burying any idea of SE concession) as reported by your main contender himself, Orji Uzor Kalu after his meeting with IBB & Abdulsalam just last night?

There was no wait my friend. I knew what I was saying. We will never reward your post election defeat nonsense with our votes.

fulanimafia:


Stop insulting when you lack knowledge of what you're saying.

AD was only established in 1998 just before the elections so you have no point (they hadn't ever rejected PDP like the SE totally rejected the APC) . The same way we had northern aspirants in APP & PDP is the same way they had in AD and PDP.

Keep in mind that nobody is barring any Ibo member from contesting the APC primaries. They just aren't getting any unanimous concession, not even by a wild shot.

Udopasa:


It's more of a Principle than law.

Same way it happened in 1999.

Udopasa:


Nobody is asking for a unanimous concession.

We're only asking for a repeat of the 1999 kinda "election" in the interest of equity.

fulanimafia:




Did the Yorubas attack & insult other regions in 1999? Did they call Nigeria a zoo?

You lack the political capital and moral basis to be expecting political favors from those you insult & attack endlessly.

You're simply being delusional. We will never reward your post election defeat nonsense with our votes.

ebenhazard:
Nigeria has a country is full of jokes

Udopasa:


It's fallacious to generalize and stereotype every Igbo person as "attacking and insulting" other regions because it seems convenient for you politically at this point.

Udopasa:
FFK have written against both the Northerners and Ndi Igbo, should we generalize his attacks and insults as coming from the Yoruba?

Ango Abdulahi and other prominent Northerners have severally vilified Ndi Igbo and other regions, should we also generalize his attacks and insults to be from the North?

flyingpig:
Shut up you bigot.

SE retains the highest sympathy for Presidency in 2023. And nothing you and ilks like yourself will do about it. When push comes to shove and it comes to fruition, you and your likes can declare yourselves non-citizens and go on exile if you can't hang the portrait of an Igbo man on your office wall as the president.

Udopasa:


If you ain't being stupid, why didn't you ask OBJ in 1998/9 to go to AD to contest or you weren't born then?

LaboPolitics:
I love the assertive nature of Igbo leaders nowadays. Ask for the both tickets to go South East, as it went to the south west in 1999. They are clearly getting the message that I have been passing.

If the SW cannot allow equity to reign but think they can continue to look for ways to insult Ndigbo and reap politically from anti-Igbo sentiments, then let the presidency remain in the north. SW will not be president in 2023, they've taken their turn already.

Simple and clear.

Udopasa:


Same way the presidency in 1999 was up for takes?

Udopasa:


Yea, that's the kinda "election" we want for equity's sake.

MDM2021:


Then contest. If it's not by contest, then it's not an election.

bjdon:

Yes it was for the south. Obasanjo had to work hard to defeat Ekume for the PDP ticket.

MDM2021:


Exactly. Ibo candidates are allowed to context in the primaries the way other candidates contested with OBJ then. APGA can form an alliance with another party like SDP or PDP for another Ibo candidate to contest the way AD formed an alliance with APP at the presidential level at that time that led to the candidacy of Olu Falae. Weak, lazy, slimmy Yorubas, as they are often taunted, cannot be a threat to the MIGHTY and GREAT Ibos.

Udopasa:
we do not consider the Yorubas as a threat. We only demand that in the demand for rotation, equity must be of top most priority.

Udopasa:
Obasanjo didn't do any work.

If the contest was left for only Obasanjo and Late Ekwueme, Obasanjo would have received the greatest defeat of his life.

Udopasa:
The contest should be left for South Easterners just like that of 1998/9 in line with equity and justice.
