Nigeria 2015: Igbo In Diaspora Dumpjonathan by Rilwayne001: 1:19pm On Sep 18, 2014 |
Despite the support enjoyed by President Goodluck Jonathan in the five states of the South East geo-political zone, some Igbo in the Diaspora under the aegis of World Igbo Congress, WIC, have enjoined their kits and kin back home to shop for a replacement for the president during the 2015 election. According to a communiqué issued after its convention, the WIC asked each political party in Nigeria to consider nominating an Igbo as its presidential candidate for the election. The communiqué dated September 9 signed by WIC Chairman, Larry Udorji, and Secretary General, Cyril Nwaorgu, was released to the media on Wednesday. The convention was held between August 29 and September 1. The WIC holds conventions annually during which it discusses crucial issues affecting the five Igbo states of Anambra, Abia,Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo. Mr. Jonathan attended 2014 Convention. Other attendees include the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, and the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Emeka Ihedioha, both Igbo. In his address to the convention, the president urged Ndigbo (Igbo people) to unite above partisan politics, internal division,external hostility, but “more fundamentally unity in planning and in development as well as in the awakening of the positive Igbo cultural resources.” He also enumerated the projects and programmes he executed in the five states since he assumed office. Officials of the Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria, TAN, had announced during its South East rally last month that it collected 1.8 million signatures of the people of the zone asking Mr. Jonathan to seek re-election. But the WIC, in the communiqué, said it would give consideration and support a nominee of Igbo extraction. “We call on each political party in Nigeria to give serious consideration to nominating an Igbo as its presidential candidate for the 2015 election to address decades of deliberate and systematic punitive exclusion of Ndigbo in presidential politics,” it said. “We will consider for support and endorsement parties that give serious consideration to and support for an Igbo nominee for President. https://m.premiumtimesng.com/news/top-news/168302-nigeria-2015-igbo-in-diaspora-dump-jonathan.html |

Jonathan is clueless and I still don't get why Igbos on this section are supporting him. I am Igbo and won't vote for that man. Well, Igbo's love supporting mediocrity in the name of 'we love our people'. ...but, that's none of my business. 7 Likes

A comment on that page read thus: We have done our part... it's left for Home-based to emulate and vote out the Otuoke Clown Prince. Our problem however is those Anambra Ibos and their Atiliogu Dance Troupe, led by Uba Bros, Ezeife, Peter Obi, et al. Sha, I'm optimistic the wave of corrupt and shoddy deals Dumbo has been involved is enough to make our voters see reason to abandon the perpetrators of Abandoned Property policy and natural turncoats. Dr. Dumbo is a common Ijaw thief and Igbos should not be seen as supportive of criminality. A clown who claimed giving Ojukwu state burial as one of his achievements to Ndigbo... Drunkard! https://m.premiumtimesng.com/news/top-news/168302-nigeria-2015-igbo-in-diaspora-dump-jonathan.html |
