No one is saying APC will win next year presidential election. What we are discussing here is the political stand of the Igbo's.

larride:

We will see!!!

CyberWolf: are you indirectly saying that APC will not win next yr's presidential election?...
Am not interested this thread's tribalistic point of view FYI..

oluwasegunfummi: My yoruba brothers keep spilling their Saliva on this thread when must of our kinsmen are in perpetual penury, majority of my beloved odualand is a slum yet with dance like headless masquerades, I wish an igbo governor like obiano can emerge in odualand, we need a saviour...........eko oni baje oooo

APContherun:
That's a better way of putting it instead of speaking with certainty about a future you have no control over. The dynamics of Nigerian politics is so interesting that you can never be sure of something until it actually happens.

iiichidodo: IBB gave us Niger bridge even though he has adopted a passive role in the PDP....Obj has always been critic of this admin and has been relegated to the back ground thus he's a nobody....What is clear here is this republic has given the igbos a sense of belonging and it will be crazy to go back to Egypt with Atiku,Elrufai,Thieffnubu,Buhari and their followers..

OrlandoOwoh:
You think you can be like Odinma1? You've made a big mistake.
Anambra Adigo Mma.

larride:

APC might not win it, its politics though, anything can happen. Until the convention in December when we will know APC flagbearer before i give my opinion on whether APC has a chance or not. If APC doesn't field a better person than GEJ then maybe i will be inclined to vote for GEJ again.




#I tends towards APC though.

OrlandoOwoh:
Shut up! Niger Bridge was built by Tafawa Balewa. IBB built Third Mainland Bridge.

iiichidodo: We aren't angry,we just feel comfortable with GEJ's admin till 2019....

CyberWolf: thats good..we are on the same side, but with the political structure of this country, APC has a 5% chance of winning next yr's presidential election...but what baffles me is the way some APC's comrades here talk as if Nigeria will turn to Yankee once APC get power...

clevadani:
from ur posts,it's obvious dat u have nothing against apc but have refused to withdraw ur support for pdp( after 15 yrs of destruction) just because of ego

larride:

I'm a realistic, i don't get sway with sentiment or emotions, i look what is on ground before i make my judgement. APC presidential candidate will determine how far they will fare in the forthcoming election.

You can't blame them for that, look at the turn-around (though still little) that happened after the years of mis-rule of PDP in the South-west, i think its borne out of the hatred that some has towards PDP and some of their element.

For this nation to start getting it right, its not going to start from the top, rather it will start from the grassroot, we need to start holding our elected officers accountable starting from the councilor to the local government chairman and start frowning on corruption from the grassroot, we need to start asking ourselves thought invoking questions when our elected officers just after 3months in power start buying exotic cars and building mansions, instead of us to start demanding accountabilty from them, we start playing the its family, tribe, local government area card. The government is not going to hand everything to us on a platter, we will have to work for some of those quality things we want. The responsibilty to transform Nigeria is not only on the GOVERNMENT but rather it involves the PEOPLE.


Shalom.

CyberWolf: the big question now is how do we hold our leaders accountable without being made as a scapegoat?

iiichidodo: Excuse me?! So how do we go about supporting that?.

larride:

Thank you brother, our leaders derives their power from US, we can make them tremble by coming together to make our voice heard. For example, your local government chairman didn't perform any of his function after like 6month and you see hime buying exotic cars and living a larger-than life life, then we mobilize each other to his office and demand how he has spent the 6months allocation, we demand nothing more than accountability and not just promises because the time of promises has passed (time of election) rather we demand for implementation of their promises. If every Local government state holding their elected officials accountable and not looking for the GEJs and Fashs of this world to come solve their street problem when they have a chairman in their backyward that they can do nothing too. The change we seek start with us.

name just one anti igbo sentiment they've exhibited apart from d fashola deportation saga in which all our govs a culpable of. didn't t.a orji sack all non abians from d civil service and only returned dem? name one incident for me where apc expressed dis so called anti igbo sentiments

nku5: I respect Uwazurike's intentions but he should leave igbos and APC matter.

APC in itself is running on a motor that is antagonistic ab initio to igbos. Strangely the party's bigwigs have expressed anti-igbo sentiments and boldly too. Fani Kayode the coke head as a consummate follow-follow guy joined APC and to feel among, quickly started writing anti-igbo articles. Let's not even go into clowns like Nyako.

iiichidodo: Mumu that particular bridge was blown to pieces during the civil war.....Go figure.

Gbawe:

Bro, when someone is prejudiced against others, their mind ,even to the point of self-delusion, is only capable of viewing those they discriminate against negatively. It is sad, aside the usual sentimental and highly biased utterances, that no Nairaland Igbo has produced a coherent argument that evinces a believably factual case for the PDP being better than the APC or indeed serving the interest of the Igbos better. All they deal in are sentiments, conjectures, half-truths and, in some cases, outright lies.

iiichidodo: Nyako's diatribe....Also the sustained witch hunting of influential figures in the admin example Oduah,Iweala,Iheajirka etc by APC sponsored media.El rufai's almost maniacal stance and posturing.The icing on the cake will be the deportation saga,that has to be the most brazen act,with most yorobars supporting the move on social media..…

OrlandoOwoh:
[s]Anuofia, and it remained abandonned till 1985 to 1993 when IBB ruled? Soon after parts of the bridge was destroyed, the Nigerian Army Corps of engineers. Check Alabi-Isama's book you will see him and his mother standing on the bridge. It is the same till date.[/s]
