David mark has 2 options. Join APC or relinquish ur position. Its sad that no SS/SE would become d next senate president since no APC senator won in that region.

Lesson learnt, don't put all ur eggs in one basket.

if Igbos want to Forge ahead. You need to put the past behind and join hands for a new Nigeria. Else it will keep turning out this way. You k ow if this was a civil war. With such a result the east as lost in e again. Nobody is bigger than a one Nigeria. Join hands and am brace change

bisous:
About time,even David Mark will know its not business as usual......
My prayer though is that APC shouldn't take Nigerians for granted......I hope they'll deliver no matter whose OX is gored

samsard:
David Mark is Idoma (i still hate being carved out as north), Sambo i suppose is Hausa from Kaduna state

YoursGEJ:
Let us show PDP how a democracy works. No more David Mark and 'the Ayes have it'

SuperModerator:
Normally, the we the Igbos would have been compensated with senate president or speaker, but APC is the majority and we have no candidate that won the National assembly from APC.
The Igbos detest APC so much, now they can see the consequence.... We won't have the first, second, third or fourth citizen of Nigeria


Note: don't take the picture attached serious, it is just a joke

hello. well I just want to clarify something you wrote 'the Igbos detest APC so much ' it is okay if you don't like them but I know Igbos who are die hard fans of APC . Peace

Reski:
The north is not only made up of Hausa's we also have other ethnic groups in the north. So Idoma or not official David mark is a northerner.

samsard:
I know all too well there are many tribes in the north, at least, Sambo and Mark are not of the same tribe

emeijeh:
Change has finally come.......
Senate and presidency will harmonize and work well in this dispensation.

Sai baba
Hundreds of "like" pls for our President-elect
#babanowthatyouarethere please don't disappoint us

Reski:
But they are notherner's.

ThimmyWood:
The region I pity most Na the Igbo, they will be sideline for another 4 to 8 years....... they believed that they are smart when they are not..... Can never get political calculations right without bringing bigotry into everything .
Serves them right sha.
Once again the Yoruba have proved their political sophistication.

charlesm91:
i think he meant to refer south easterners; the majority as reflected by the votes. I'm igbo too,lagosian by birth but igbo's didn't play the game well. They could have supported APC for Ngige to have a share at the central for the greater good but the whole Buhari islam hate blinded their eyes. I'm happy for democracy n let's see; can only hope for a new Nigeria.

shegsrules:
That moment when David Mark turns to floor member and begins to say i n nay. Haha

samsard:
I give up

Betanwa:

Wot exactly did David Mark do wrong?...
Because he refused to approve the gay law?

Nothing except that he has been there for 16years ,he should give room for someone else......Never heard of bowing out when the ovation is loudest?

GentleToks:


Let speak the truth and shame the devil. This attitude of hiding behind one finger in order not to upset a certain region of the country is not my thing. After all, Northerners were called all sort of names as a result of Boko haram menace and Yorubas were called all sort of names during wild wild west political brouhaha....

Jonathan administration revealed how tribal Igbos can be if opportunity presents itself. Please I m not one of those that would come here to patronise them, let's speak the truth at all time and shame d devil. The good thing about other Nigerians is their forgiving spirit and the fact that other Nigerians easily forget things and move with their lives, otherwise Igbos would have equally been paid back with their own coins.

Prior to Jonathan administration, the new generation of Nigerians believed that Igbos were truly being marginalised at the federal level going by their "marginalisation rhetorics" year in, year out. However, it was not only a shock to me but an act of wickedness to see the same people dancing to the fact that all the sensitive governmental positions are being occupied by their sons and daughter; forgetting that one day, just one day, it ll be the turn of other people. It was the same show of shame, hatred towards other ethnic groups and Marginalisation of others under Aguiyi Ironsi administration. Aguiyi Ironsi attention was even called to the development but refused to listen. Can Igbo ever complain of marginalisation anymore in this country? Capital No.

Stop blaming their leaders; the followers are even worse than their leaders. Haven't u read their repulsive utterances on various social media platforms against Hausas and Yorubas? Were they coerced to write those gibberish against others by their leaders? No. Remember that a snake ll not give birth to goat....

Historically, Akintola tried to let Yorubas follow the footpath of Igbos as far as politics is concerned, having seen and witnessed what Igbos did in the East in 60s. The same Akintola experience back in 60s repeated itself again in last gubernatorial election in Anambra state where these people were openly preaching hatred towards Hausas and Yorubas in particular; tagged APC a Yoruba party but the good thing is that Yorubas refused to follow that footpath.....

Finally, I was having a discussion with my fellow Igbo church members on Sunday about Nigeria politics and I realised that they were all supporting Jonathan and i asked them the reason why their support were given to Jonathan, none of them could utter a word; so 8th shows that their support for Jonathan was a result of tribal sentiment

However, I only urge the new generation from the east to desist from this game of hatred.....

Peace out
