Op continue decieving yourself with your fake News. All your lies to trigger protests to remove PBAT from power have repeatedly failed woefully. Now it's Igbo must be president by 2027 that your latest fantasy. Zuzu bae, it's the mods that allow your useless post that I blame.

Oya use all your monikers to write rubbish that you are known for here. You don cast and your post are mostly comical entertainment for discerning minds

You go explain tire!!
Your wailing is too much and your continued loud crying is becoming loud noise.

Lagos, Nigeria — In a powerful and unprecedented political declaration, influential Yoruba and Northern leaders within the All Progressives Congress (APC) have jointly called for the 2027 Nigerian presidency to be handed over to an Igbo man from the South-East geopolitical zone — but with a critical stipulation: the candidate must be a bona fide member of the APC.

This stirring demand signals a pivotal moment in Nigeria’s political evolution, reflecting a growing consensus among major ethnic blocs in the ruling party to foster true inclusivity, national cohesion, and respect for the country’s unwritten power rotation norms.



The Yorubas and Northerners’ endorsement of an Igbo presidency within the APC is grounded not only in historical justice but also political pragmatism. For decades, the Igbo people — despite their significant economic contributions and population — have been largely excluded from the highest office, deepening feelings of marginalization and disenfranchisement.

By emphasizing that the Igbo presidency candidate must be a member of the APC, these leaders are underscoring the need for internal party democracy and loyalty. This insistence also serves as a subtle but firm message to the broader political class that the Igbo ambition for the presidency should be pursued within the mainstream ruling party, which currently controls the machinery of government and has the strongest chances of winning the election.


Political analysts view this united call as a potential game-changer for the 2027 general elections. It bridges long-standing regional divides, signaling that the APC’s core ethnic constituencies are ready to set aside historical suspicions and work toward a shared future.

Dr. Ibrahim Musa, a leading political commentator, noted, “This is an extraordinary alignment. For Yorubas and Northerners to publicly support an Igbo APC candidate suggests a shift from ethno-centric politics to a more pragmatic and inclusive approach. It could redefine how power is negotiated in Nigeria.”


While the call is historic, it comes with formidable challenges. The South-East political landscape is currently fragmented, with multiple aspirants eyeing the presidency, many not formally aligned with the APC. Convincing these actors to rally behind the party’s candidate will require strategic diplomacy and robust consensus-building.

Moreover, this demand adds pressure on the APC leadership to fast-track credible zoning arrangements and internal reforms that guarantee the Igbo candidate not only emerges but also garners widespread support.


This united front by Yorubas and Northerners is more than a political gesture; it is a clarion call for national integration, equitable power distribution, and party loyalty. If handled with wisdom and sincerity, it could mark the dawn of a new chapter in Nigeria’s democracy — one where ethnic identities enrich the political landscape without breeding division.

As Nigeria approaches the crucial 2027 elections, all eyes will be on how the APC navigates this complex terrain and whether it can transform this bold vision into reality.

In a powerful and unprecedented move, a coalition of prominent Yoruba socio-cultural organizations has issued a bold and unequivocal statement warning against any attempt by Yoruba individuals or political actors to undermine the potential emergence of an Igbo presidency in the 2027 general elections.

Speaking at a joint press conference held in Ibadan on Sunday, the Yoruba Leadership Forum (YLF), alongside other influential grassroots and pan-Yoruba groups, emphasized the importance of justice, equity, and unity in Nigeria’s democratic evolution.

"We are watching, and history is watching," said Chief Bayo Alade, a respected elder statesman and convener of the forum. "The Yoruba nation will not be used as a tool to frustrate the legitimate aspiration of the Igbo people in 2027. We warn — respectfully but firmly — any Yoruba sons or daughters attempting to sabotage this movement: there will be consequences."

The coalition pointed to the historic sacrifices and resilience of the South-East, stating that it is now morally and politically imperative for Nigeria to embrace inclusivity at the highest level of governance.

"The road to justice cannot be one-sided. Our brothers and sisters from the South-East have waited long enough. If Nigeria is to thrive, then fairness must no longer be postponed," declared Mrs. Funmi Adeyemi, a youth leader and policy advocate present at the event.

The groups stressed that the Yoruba and Igbo people, though culturally distinct, share a common destiny of greatness in Nigeria’s future. Rather than division, they called for a strategic alliance of southern unity — a South-South-East-West handshake across the Niger — to ensure the emergence of a truly representative presidency in 2027.

The leaders didn’t mince words when they said that any Yoruba person who chooses political greed over the greater good will be held accountable by the people and by history.

"We are not here to pick fights, but to call for clarity of purpose. If the North has had its turn, and the West has had its turn, then the East must also have its day under the sun. This is the essence of true federalism," said Professor Dapo Akanji, a political analyst and one of the speakers.

Social media has since erupted with praise for the coalition’s courageous stance, with hashtags like #Justice2027 and #YorubaIgboUnity trending across platforms.

The statement ends with a call to action for all Yoruba people — from the grassroots to the elite — to stand for equity and resist any clandestine plots that may derail the hopes of an inclusive and united Nigeria.

"The time has come for courage, not compromise. Let no Yoruba hand be found working against an Igbo presidency in 2027. Those who try will answer — not just to us — but to generations yet unborn."

APCNig:
Remove this nonsense within the next three market days, if not, you will see the hands of the gods.

Are you saying we should zone the Presidential seat to Peter Obi’s village? Since he ran away from Party Primary in PDP and went to collect ticket without any Primary election in Labourers Party. Why are Igbos afraid of contesting with others. Let Igbos face their fears, if they fail, they will try again another time

You will explain tire.
Have you greeted me this evening before posting your nonsense talk without thinking?

In a historic and heartening declaration, prominent Yoruba leaders have called on their people to fully embrace and support the Igbo presidency slated for 2027, urging unity and collaboration for the greater good of Nigeria. Rejecting any form of sabotage, these leaders emphasized that the strength of Nigeria lies in its unity and the mutual respect among its diverse ethnic groups.

Addressing a gathering of community stakeholders and youths, the Yoruba leaders passionately appealed to their fellow Yorubas to contribute resources, ideas, and goodwill towards ensuring the success of the Igbo presidency. They stressed that progress in Nigeria is not a zero-sum game but a shared journey where every ethnic group’s victory translates into national development.

“The future of Nigeria depends on us coming together to build a nation where everyone’s aspirations are valued and supported,” said one influential Yoruba elder. “We urge our people to see the Igbo presidency not as a threat but as an opportunity to strengthen our democracy, promote equity, and foster lasting peace.”

The leaders highlighted that collaboration between Yorubas and Igbos has historically fueled economic growth, cultural enrichment, and political stability in Nigeria. They reminded citizens that the vision of a united Nigeria requires all hands on deck—particularly from the largest ethnic groups working in harmony.

“Let us channel our energy and resources towards supporting the Igbo presidency. By doing so, we build a foundation of trust and pave the way for even greater cooperation in the future,” the leaders declared.

This call for unity has already begun inspiring grassroots movements and youth organizations within the Yoruba community, signaling a new era of interethnic cooperation and hope for the nation’s future.

As Nigeria approaches the 2027 elections, this unprecedented show of solidarity promises to deepen democratic values and position Nigeria on a path of inclusive growth and shared prosperity.

He's an ipob member who thinks by posting fake news about protests that some gullible folks like him would really carry it out to cause civil unrest that might lead to an ethnic progrom so his Messiah kanu's wish of destabilizing of Nigeria can be achieved.

The annoying part is the mods know this but still allows his posts, check all the posts from those 3 monikers plus other I didn't mention and see how shallow minded an individual can be. Yet mods give his the stage to invite hate and angst against the Igbo.

Seun‼️ why do you allow this guy to use you platform for ethnic baiting,fake news and hate-filled rethorics that can cause serious civil unrest and backlash against Peace loving and law-abiding igno citizens or are you claiming ignorance of his activities ⁉️

FIRDAUS3:
Sponsored protest✊...... Let's see how it goes.

We can't wait to see the thousands youth protesting!
Dey play

The protest is going to be interesting because any person that participate on the protest will benefit from the palliative APC will bring to share after Nigerians insist all the palliative hidden inside aso rock should be released with immediate effect, as Yoruba elders and Yoruba traditional leaders will lead the protest.
Do not miss the protest because government must share the money that belong to Nigerians on that Saturday and every protesters will collect their share of the national cake.

Yoruba Elders Rebuke President Tinubu Over Controversial Policies Amid Growing National Discontent

In a rare and emphatic show of dissent, prominent Yoruba elders have publicly condemned President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s recent policies, describing them as “worthless” and detrimental to the socio-economic well-being of the Yoruba people and Nigerians at large. The elders, who hold immense cultural and moral influence, expressed deep disappointment over what they see as a growing disconnect between the president’s administration and the aspirations of the Nigerian populace.

At a high-profile forum in Ibadan, several respected leaders voiced their frustrations, accusing the president of neglecting critical issues such as economic hardship, infrastructure decay, and national unity. They warned that Tinubu’s stubborn adherence to policies perceived as ineffective is risking the fragile cohesion of the nation.

Despite the mounting criticisms, President Tinubu has remained unyielding, reiterating his commitment to his agenda and dismissing calls for urgent policy recalibration. This posture has further strained the relationship between the government and traditional authorities, sparking fears of widening discontent that could undermine stability in the southwest and beyond.

Analysts suggest that the growing rift signals a pivotal moment for Nigeria, where bridging the gap between leadership and grassroots expectations is imperative. Without responsive governance that embraces inclusive dialogue and accountability, the nation risks deeper divisions at a critical juncture in its democratic journey.

As tensions simmer, many Nigerians watch closely, hoping for a breakthrough that aligns governance with the hopes and realities of all its people.

Nigerians are not happy

Abuja, Nigeria – October 9, 2025 –
A wave of frustration and discontent is sweeping across Nigeria, as citizens from various walks of life have declared their intention to stage a mass protest and possible sit-in outside the Presidential Villa, Aso Rock, in Abuja. The planned demonstration is a reaction to what many describe as worsening economic conditions, insecurity, and lack of visible government action on key national issues.

Organizers say the protest—scheduled to begin next weekend—is the result of years of unaddressed grievances and growing public despair. Many Nigerians, particularly youth groups, civil society organizations, and informal sector workers, have expressed that they are “tired of complaining online” and are now “ready to take action on the streets.”

“We’ve written letters, done peaceful marches, posted our struggles online, and still nothing has changed,” said Aminu Idris, a youth activist from Kaduna. “This time, we are heading to the gates of power. We want to be seen and heard where it matters most.”

one of the organizers, who asked to remain anonymous for security reasons said "We’ve had enough of the empty promises. Enough of the hardship. This time, we are not just speaking — we are showing up,”


Rising inflation, fuel subsidy removal, naira devaluation, and mass unemployment have pushed millions into poverty.


Social media has been instrumental in mobilizing support, with hashtags like #WeAreTired, #OccupyAsoRock, and #NigeriansDemandChange trending across platforms. Civil society groups, students, market women, professionals, and even some labor unions have signaled interest in joining what is being described as a peaceful but resolute protest.

Protesters say they are demanding urgent action from the government on key issues including:

The rising cost of living and fuel prices

Widespread unemployment and poverty

Insecurity and kidnapping across the country

Poor healthcare and education infrastructure

Lack of transparency and accountability from public officials


The protest is expected to take place on Saturday, October 18, 2025, starting from Unity Fountain and moving toward Aso Rock Villa.

Security agencies have yet to issue an official statement, but sources say discussions are ongoing within the presidency on how to respond.

Meanwhile, organizers are urging participants to remain peaceful and lawful, emphasizing that the protest is not aligned with any political party but represents “the collective voice of frustrated Nigerians.”

More updates to follow as the story develops.
