Despite the fact that I supported GEJ, I commend the outcome, despite the rigging( from both sides), I believe this was truly the will of the people, see as many were rejoicing.
The greatest legacy of this election was GEJs congratulating Gen Buhari even b4 final result came, infact it was unAfrican. I was analysing global news about this election and I noticed that the world were shocked, they were expecting us to by now killing ourselves, but lo rather there is peace. Let it be known that Nigeria has passed another milestone. We did it with ebola now this election.
I salute Gen Buhari, he must hit the ground running because he has a great task ahead for him to fulfill the wishes of his millions of supporters and cynics that are at the corner waiting for him to fail.

As for we Igbos we need to do a soul searching, we really need true and visionary leaders not the contractors we have today. We need to banish the past wound of the war and learn how to relate with other ethnicities, we have a lot to learn from them, though we have our unique strength they also can learn from us.
Finaly I think the unique features and attributes of each ethnic group is great for this nation, it is just that we have not known how to rightly apply it. God has brought us together, we are African brothers. So let us embrace peace. Dalu

This is one of the most beautiful posts I've ever seen on nairaland! God bless you mightily. You've sown love and you shall reap eternal bliss!

There is no reason why Nigeria should continue being a united country when we now place ethnic interests over competence and performance. The yorubas have supported with the hausas to return to the status quo of their born to rule. I don't expect any democracy dividend from a buhari presidency for the masses because Buhari didn't even present a manifesto. All he did was sell his ethnicity to his north while the yorubas did for their region.
Jonathan has done more for the north than any president from the north and yet tribalism defeated him. I want to ask all igbos to boycott this government and prepare for the next election with awareness and tribalism. Igbos should make sure that they are not shortchanged in the upcoming census. There is no reason why katsina should have more population than Anambra.

Enough said!

And the SS voted based on the same Tribalism.
Do you expect a region ravaged by wars for four years to Vote GEJ.

but the post didnt say why IGbo will never rule, I gave answer to why igbo are not interested in presidency for now...when they are interested in presidency they will get it, trust igbos and their aggressive way of doing things...igbo are just seriously interested in having the biggest economy in Africa which is Nigeria and west african economy and from the look of things they are not doing badly in that aspect ..after considering that the North have the highest level of poverty and iliteracy yet they have been ruling and take yoruba that produced obasanjo and shonekan yet they have the highest brown mud houses in ibadan and ogbomosho then having the highest touts and omo nile in the whole ASfrica ..that made igbo to focus on economic path and group economics is what they practise

we can just let boko haram bomb North the after we do the clean up which we will be paid, that is the African Jews.I am not losing sleep over GMB-GEJ madness all I am interested is how to ensure my proposals get approved and how I can have a business In ghana and Lagos....so that is igbo


jews are not in power but they rule by proxy and igbo are good students of jews


So can we go back to the threa topic bro
It is good idea. But that is only if you people are ever united to pursue that front.
Let me educate you little about the North perchance you may learn some lesson.
Aliyu Babangida of Niger state is from Sokoto state by origin.
Shekarau the former Governor of Kano state is also from Sokoto.
In the North, there is nothing like state of Origin so far you are from the North.
They are accomodating to others; that is why they have the highest number of 'imigrants' from other parts of the country- Ask why the Igbos in the North would rather die there than leave for his home land. You may want to argue that but i dont care.
Do you have any of such qualities in your tribe?Permit me to take my leave as i am in celebration mood right now. Thanks.

GEJ would still have lost if Buhari had chosen Rochas or an Igbo man as VP. This election was never about Buhari because he has been rejected 3 times by Nigerians. This election was about Nigerians passing a vote of no confident on GEJ/PDP government. APC knew that Nigerians wanted change from PDP that is why their slogan was Change

Let's be sincere,the north voted buhari because he was their own,not because he had any better programme that GEJ.
The west voted Buhari simply because of the Osibanjo/Tinubu factor. Afterall,buhari has been contesting since,why didn't they recognise him as the change all this while.
I ask an ardent yoruba Apc supporter if he would have been clamouring for this change if Buhari had chosen Rochas or Ngige as running mate,he never answered.
Its all tribal.
Last note: let's pray that Apc learns from GEJ and provide a level electoral playing field to vote them out when they fail to perform(though I doubt).

Please keep that sentiment aside. Yorubas are the most de-tribalized set of people who vote based on competence and not they way you are painting them. If that is not the case, do you think Jonathan will have all the votes he had from the SW?. Yoruba are not bigots. We are not blinded by tribalism. All your rant should be directed to the poeple from your southern part of the country. In 2011, when Buhari contested, Pastor Tunde Bakare was his running mate, did Buhari win because of Tunde Bakare despite him being a Yoruba man?. Yorubas votd enmass for Jonathan. We did not see Jonathan as a non-Yoruba man. We saw him as the person that was competent for the job. And in 2015, the same Jonathan we thought was competent was discovered not to be up to the task and he was booted out.
Your Jonathan got millions of vote from the SW and millions from the North as well. Please tell me how many vote did Buhari get from your SE/SS. Not up to 500K. Now tell me who voted based on tribalism?.

You are just a kettle painting pot black. It's high time you do away with your tribalism and embrace the wind of change for the betterment of the country.

The main reason GEJ lost isn't because of the north because the north you talk about also voted Buhari in 2011 but he lost. GEJ lost because both the middle belt and the south west that supported him massively in 2011 got sick and tired and withdrew their support and this was because of 2 things:

1. GEJ's unparalleled incompetence which was obvious to all and sundry (both foreigners and Nigerians alike)
2. The fact that even though his incompetence was so glaring, the people of the SE and SS could not for a second see any single flaw in him but instead, chose to insult the sensibilities of others for daring to complain.


If anyone wants to talk of tribalism, then I must say the SE and SS took tribalism to a ridiculous and senselessly provoking level in the past 4 years all because of a support for Jonathan. Every tribe has a bit of tribalism in them but it becomes really obscene when you come out in full public glare and scream about your support of a particular person SOLELY because the person is of your tribe. Only the northerners have been known to exhibit this indiscretion in their own tribalism but they can be forgiven because 95% of their population are stark illiterates. I cant say the same of the southerners though because we are quite educated and enlightened. I remember vividly the case of the aviation minister who was unfortunate to be caught red handed in some fraud. Up till now, many Igbos do not think there is anything wrong in what she did and they go further to even insult the sensibilities of everyone else by publicly declaring that she should be freed SIMPLY BECAUSE SHE IS IGBO. For the first time in my life, I felt really embarrassed being from the SE during the Stella Oduah saga.

For once, people need to look inwards and stop blaming others for every single misfortune. This particular attitude of blaming others for every single misfortune (even those caused by an act of God) also played a pivotal role in losing GEJ the support of the SW and MB who voted him in 2011.

when people say igbo lose election you ask how, Igbo never lose, the losers are south south, they lost credibility, they lost their mind and they will lose their oil well and environment. Since 1070 igbo never ruled but it has not stop igbo from been the most educated tribe, it has not stooped igbo land from having the highest income distribution, it has not stopped igbo land from having industries ranging from ICT and car manufacturing, it has not stoped igbo from having the biggest online trading firms like www.slot.com, www.wakanow.com, www.PTVphones.com and biggest onlie blogs making million employing igbos such as linda ikeji, bella naija..it has not stoped igbo from progessing

one thing the lack of president did or is doing for igbo is that it made them understand that they do not have any body to depend but on their-selves and brain with God been on their side...

look at how the Yoruba and Hausa are bragging, that it what presidency does to them, it gives them wrong sense of fulfilment and achievement while their problem such as high level of touting, pverty, omo nili mentality, almajirism and polio and illiteracy looms around



since north have presidency have they produced likes of chimamanda, chinua, elechi amadi and other global known literary giants ..the answer is big No, yoruba managed only Wole soyinka thats all.


You can see what dependence on politics and governance can do to some region. The same way dependence on oil never impacted on Niger delta, the best thing depend on yourself

Ppl are free to chose who they support... And why should you term that "tribalism"?... So wen and if Jonathan wins,it is competence an patriotism but if buhari wins,its tribalism?
Let me educate you ...in Nigeria power is between north an south.buhari ,as a northerner can either go with south easterner ,or south westerner.. Having tried the persons of Chuba Okadigbo an Senator Ben Obi previously as easterners ,he decided to try pastor Tuned Bakare an yomi Osibanjo ...as westerners an finally has succeeded... So how do you blame him?
It only takes a child to say that the north an East are political foes...far from it.,the first republic was the marriage of north an south east in form of Tarawa belewa and Nnamdi Azikiwe,the second republic was also between She hu shagari and Alex Ekwueme...but some ppl were too myopic to belif in a propaganda that buhari,a northerner can not work with the IBO...an the few wise amongst us like Rochas Okorocha and Chris Ngige were seen as enemies.
We were busy supporting a dead horse in person of Jonathan whose only project in the East was commissioning of architectural master plan of second Niger bridge cry embarassed so blame our zombie leaders.

Let's be truthful here;
The North voted Buhari not because of his manifesto or agenda but because he is their own.
Call an average Northerner and ask him to name any agenda of Buhari that appeals to him,he would be looking at you like a m.oron.
So,Buhari and Osibanjo emerging as the president and vice president of this country respectively, wasn't because their competency or accountability but because of the tribalistic and fanatical altitude of the North and West.

my brother, for how long shall we tolerate this?
Are we moving forward or backward as a country??

It's high time we told ourselves the truth.

Tribalism is in our blood, the sooner we realize it and split, the better for us.

I'll keep saying this; "One Nigeria" is a scam

this is what they have refused to believe, EU countries are formed based on ethnicities, Asian based on ethnicities, south AMERICAN COUNTRIES SAME. we just cant continue in this hell hole...


we need some space and we form alliance like EU not been in same country....

Let's be truthful here;
The North voted Buhari not because of his manifesto or agenda but because he is their own.
Call an average Northerner and ask him to name any agenda of Buhari that appeals to him,he would be looking at you like a m.oron.
So,Buhari and Osibanjo emerging as the president and vice president of this country respectively, wasn't because their competency or accountability but because of the tribalistic and fanatical altitude of the North and West.

a bottle of vodka on me...u just killed it, it hurt but its the truth

And in 2011?
u dey mind them? I forgot GMB presented an ibo man as his VP in the last election, that is y the yorubas did nt vote for him. The ibos are trying to justify their tribalism by labelling others tribalistic. The only reason y the yorubas did nt vote for GEJ dis time is because of his adminstration's performance
