One problem is that those of us from the south see 3 regions in the south and we only see one region in the north. When Jonathan was giving majority of the juicy position to SE/SS we didn't complain. During his time,
chief of Army staff Ihejirika, SS/SE
chief of Naval staff, Ezeoba, SS/SE
SSG Anyim SS/SE
Chief of Staff Oghiadomhe SS/SE
Minster of Labour Barr Emake SS/SE
Minister of Aviation Oduah SS/SE
Minister of petroleum SS/SE
Minister of Health SS/SE
Minister of works Onolememen SS/SE
Minister of Finance SS/SE
Minister of Power Prof. Chinedu SS/SE

What will we say if Buhari give all this posotions to NW/NE?

Choi, my long and lengthy reply to Higold just got deleted. I am so pisssed off right now. I will reply you( Higod) later.

Lmao!!!!! You must have sounded like bigoted tribalist for Mod to delete d gibberish.

Don't worry about it, I have already read it through your online disposition.

Hahaha lol!!!!

Rose2014:

If this was a Biafra thread now, you'll start saying SS and SE are different and ask SS not to align with SE, and that SE is only looking for their oil but when it comes to being mischievous like this, u merge them both as Igbos

Pls tell me the name of anybody from SS on my list. The only SS on my list is married to Igbo.

HiGod:


President-Nnamdi Ebele-half Igbo(ancestral)
Deputy Senate- Igbo
Deputy Speaker-Igbo
SGF-Igbo
Finance- Igbo
Petroleum-Half Igbo
Health-Igbo
Minting and Printing-Igbo
CBN-Igbo(after Sanusi)
Chief of Army Staff-Igbo(Ihjerika)

With all the above, pls, tell me what is left for the remaining 4 regions.....

if these are the positions that make the igbos favoured,then I think u have serious problems.......why not put the post held by the northerners and yorubas including ambassadorial positions and let's start from there.........then when you are through,put the positions held by the northerners,yorubas and igbos let's compare and contrast...... I wonder how many chief of army staff that the SE has ever produced up till this moment and the finance sector......not too sure about the rest.....and petroleum is ijaw not half igbo........please GEJ is not igbo I beg u

You guys-Igbos are clowns honestly.......

If a single region-Igbos could positioned themselves around those political positions(Deputy senate to Finance) you just brushed aside in this country without other tribes/regions calling for their heads, that region-Igbos need to exam their heads.

Did you tell your fellow clowns to wait for Buhari to come up with the list of his ambassadorial appointees and others before calling for his head? Hypocrisy at its peak...

Don't let me make comments that will earn me a life ban. You are getting me angry. Yo cannot work in GTBank and go to First Bank to collect salary. Kano gave Buhari 1.9 million votes, Katsina gave Buhari 1.7 million votes, Kaduna gave Buhari 1.3 million votes, do you expect the whole South South and South East of 11 States that did not give Buhari up to 200,000 votes to get as many appointments as Kano alone? No, No, No. The whole of South South and South East will not get up to what Kano alone will get in terms of appointments. South South and South East will get Minister of State II for Environment, Minister of State II for Labour and Productivity, Minister of State II for Culture and Tourism (gully erosion sites are tourist attraction), Minister of State II for Women Affairs (to arrest child labourers, baby factory operators, and human traffickers all in South South and South East).

My friend, shut up! We don't belong here. Don't deceive yourself. If you make the mistake of thinking those people you're trying so hard to please will ever accept you, then your name is SORRY. They don't love you, they don't care about you and they don't even want to set eyes on you. Be wise my friend and see where the evil is coming from.

WE DON'T BELONG HERE, WE'RE NOT ACCEPTED HERE AND WE'VE NEVER BEEN ACCEPTED HERE...

I'm inclined to respond to this. The real people who do not love you are the ones who steal your resources in broad daylight. The Ihediohas, The Rochases, the Iwuanyanwus, the Ubas, the TA Orjis etc. these people steal what should be put on ground in the SE for development, then they hire you to come and battle other tribes. You should rather pray for a stronger EFCC and anti-corruption agencies who will prevent them from stealing or jail them when they do. No city in Nigeria would develop without selfless service, and selfless service is what most IGBO leaders don't have.

Igbos filled in much of GEJ's cabinet and parastatals, that's the unfortunate reality Buhari Was talking about, but what would that do for the region if there's si much corruption and no accountability in the system? What would you gain if you have leaders at the presidency who only care about sharing your resources among themselves rather than using it to develop your region?

Even if Buhari fills his cabinet with nottherners, it won't prevent Igbos from getting employed by government agencies, army and other institutions due to federal character, it won't prevent the Niger Bridge from being constructed, it won't even develop the north more than the south if they have selfish leaders, afterall the north has been in power for many years. Sentiment is killing a lot of people in Nigeria, they are educated but sentiments becloud their judgement. What use is your brother if he steals what should be yours and instead you become his mouthpiece rather than speak for yourself?

Gets your facts right, only Edo state gave Buhari 208,000 votes. Talk less of adding the other states.

The votes gotten from other states put together (minus Imo) is not up to Edo alone. I'm sure simpleseyi deliberately left Edo and Imo out.

If you claim you are from SS, you can only speak for your ethnic group not the whole SS cos Igbos are still part of SS.

I have said is severally, that SS have nothing to fear in Buhari regime. Minister of petroleum is already own , so is ministry of niger delta. We already have a service chief and we have strong men in APC from all SS states except Cross river (coincidentally that have the service chief). The only region that have what to fear is the SE.

Imagine this clown saying Igbos don't have selfless leader, What selfless leaders do Yorubas have? If you have nothing meaningful to post then just shut up!

HiGod:


Victim mentality in a full display!

Here we go again, Obasanjo tactics!!! Yorubas made Igbos to betray themselves!!!

I presumed it was Igbo media not Yoruba media that brought the issue of Tafa Balogun, Bankole, Bode George, Etteh, FFK, Abosede(Education minister) to the public....(All aforementioned names are Yorubas). Igbos are the most retarded and bigoted region in this country and that is why we all stay away from that region.

Yorubas media made Malaysians, Chinese and South Africans to hate Igbos......

Yorubas media made Stella Odua a thief

Yorubas media made FFK to Bleep Ojukwu's wife-Bianca..

Yorubas media made Hausas/Fulanis to commit pogrom against Igbos...

Yorubas media was responsible for the imprisonment of Alex Ekwueme...

Yorubas are always responsible for all your problems...

However, the same Yoruba Nation is your region paradise where all your kinsmen made their money and remit money back to their region to feed their starving families....

If I were Igbos with dignity and self-respect, I will move all my things and leave Yoruba Nation behind so as to prove to your supposed enemies-The Yorubas that you are up to the task.

Why don't you debunk the fact that you ingrates have been forming alliances with the North since independence at the expense of the South until God decided to punish your region in their own coins by using the same Master-Hausas/Fulanis to send millions of Igbos to their early grave.

Igbo Technocrats indeed!!!! Lmao!!!!! Nigeria was pretty doing well economically with Northern semi illiterates at the helm of affairs in all our ministries until your supposed Igbo Technocrats took over these ministries and destroyed our economy. Where are they today?

Go and see Yoruba technocrats doing amazingly well around the globe. One of them was former minister for Agriculture who later became a president of ADB.

It was Awo whose treachery forced Zik to form alliance with the North, blame Awo lust for power for that. The same lust for power that saw him form alliance with Gowon and commit treason twice. God decided to pay Awo with his own coins when he was forced to drink otapiapia by his northern masters, taking his own life in the process, a well deserved punishment I must say. The same punishment that Abiola who formed alliance with the North got. He was betrayed by Yoruba Obas, and died in prison at the hands of his Northern masters, it was God's punishment! https://www.nairaland.com/2402932/yoruba-political-sophistication-hoax

Tinubu is the next on the line. Already his northern masters are cutting him to size.

Igbo technocrats guided and Nurtured Nigeria into number one economy in Africa. We all know how Yoruba technocrats ran Nigeria down from 1970-99.

Your Agriculture minister is the only worth mentioning Yoruba technocrat, yet it was Okonjo who helped him reach the ADB. Arunma Oteh eclipses him, yet he is Yoruba's best.

socialmediaman:
What use is your brother if he steals what should be yours and instead you become his mouthpiece rather than speak for yourself?

You're so quick to tell me about the shortcomings of my supposed Igbo leaders... That sounds so patronising and it's a turn off. What about your own leaders from your region. How much have they done to better that place? Or are you suggesting that your region is in any way better developed than where I come from?

Secondly, I would rather have my brother steal from me than to be continually plundered by parasites and cockroaches from God knows where... Certain issues can always be settled amicably among family. With outsiders, it most certainly would spiral into conflict. That has been the story of Nigeria.

The reason why Nigeria has been on a continuous retrogression is because every Tom and Harry knows that the Nigeria arrangement is very much temporary. Reasons why our past leaders (mostly from outside my region) have plundered and raped resources coming from this region with nothing.... absolutely nothing to show for it. No infrastructure, no federal presence and you dare to come here and preach to me.

Lastly, I speak for no one. I speak for myself because I bear the brunt of the injustice that has been the hallmark of the existence of the Nigerian contraption.

You claim you are from Edo state, don't Edo state have a Governor? What has the Governor done for Edo state? Whereas can Yorubas point out what OBJ did for their region all through his eight years of misrule?

Are you asking what Oshiomole did for Edo state? No Oshiomole did nothing for Edo state it was Lucky Igbenedion that did something. OBJ did things in Edo states, the bypass he constructed is what in Benin is was is saving Easterners going to Lagos from traffic inside Benin.

We are all praying for the present buhari government lets pray he does something for your state Akwa Ibom and southwest.

You think things are just easy, as you people say, most people are not ready to vote, others are not ready to pay their task. Praising buhari, cursing jonathan, praising jonathan cursing buhari. Remember every government had a plan until they receive a punch in the face. Even Jona! Bokoharam punched jona, wonder what would punch baba!

Pls you guys shd stop giving excuses for Jona abeg. Any man way no fit control him wife na yansh. Wetin you expect from yanshmen? Am only happy for Jona becos he ended well. Outside dat he is a perfect example of poor leadership. To some he was the best, to me him na yansh!

Prior to 1999, Yorubas played opposition party all through 1st Republic and Second Republic; 60s and 70s in which Igbos played active roles in the two republics...

Its quite unfortunate that Yorubas are still playing opposition politics despite their enormous investment in the ruling APC. It seems you people are programmed by default to play opposition politics
