franchasng: You dont have any point. In a multi tribal nation like Nigeria, for peace, equity, fairness and unity, Presidency should be rotated among the major tribes not just region.
Presidency in a multitribal nation like Nigeria should not be based on who helped the incumbent President to win the election, that's if we truly desire a united and just nation that will give us peace, unity, togetherness and common prosperity.
That Tinubu helped in making Buhari President in 2015 should never be a yardstick to make him President, if we follow that route, crooks and moneybags will colonize Nigeria's Presidency and it will lead this nation to doom.
On issue of Northeast, we are not talking just about geopolitical regions but about major tribes to bring unity and togetherness.
Northeast and Northwest are almost the same people, habited by same tribes; Hausa-Fulanis, and other tribes.
So when you mention Northwest it includes Northeast when it comes to tribes.
But down south, we have 3 major tribes, Igbos, Yorubas and others. Only Igbos are yet to smell that seat among the major stakeholders in the South.
Stop being politically smart always, not good in a multitribal and multicultural nation like Nigeria.
Go and listen to that man's interview and others like him.
We are talking about unity, peace, brotherliness not just your usual cunning politics of who makes the highest stake.
Tinubu has a dream to become president and has worked for it since 1999 by building alliances and not waiting for it to fall on his lap
If today we say let an Igbo man be president then name Igbo politicians who have made friends and alliances across borders? Who can successfully come onto the ballot on the strength of his name not “it’s igbos turn”
So when will it be a Bini man’s turn? An efik man’s turn? An ebira man’s turn? We cannot be rotating Nigeria’s presidency based on majority tribe it cannot work
Like I said earlier a north south sharing is the best and when it reaches a region it should be political and by political I mean influence.
The man (ebunola) is free to speak his mind and I love his opinion ... it means he is open to voting an Igbo man come 2023 and that is the beauty of democracy
Now let an Igbo man clinch a ticket and run simple
But you cannot tell the APC where Tinubu and his alliances worked to elect Buhari so that in 2023 buhari and his alliances can support him then jettison his “hard work” in the interest of “brotherliness”? It’s a very crude way of thinking
Like I stated earlier ... politics is about alliances so let the igbo politicians build alliances with a view to clinching the ticket.
Recently Ohaneze claimed APC plan was to rig Annabel elections
franchasng: An eminent Yoruba man, a honest and just Yoruba man who also happens to be an APC top chieftain and Buhari's 2019 Presidential campaign team member, Prince Ebunola Martin's told the entire Yorubas the absolute truth on Arise TV morning show interview yesterday.
The man said, and I quote:
I am a Yoruba man with core Yoruba interest at heart, I am a Yoruba man before becoming a Nigeria so I cannot sabotage the interest of Yoruba people. If we want to zone APC Presidential ticket, it should be zoned to the South, and when we are talking about the South, it should be Southeast and no other because my father and uncle Obasanjo a full blooded Yoruba man ruled this country from 1999 to 2006, after him it returned back to the North in the person of Yaradua, and then swung to Southsouth in the person of Goodluck Jonathan.
If you take a look at it, the only major tribe who have a major stake in Nigeria that is yet to touch that Presidential seat is Igbo, so I believe 2023 should be handed over to them for equity, fairness and unity of this country.
Igbos deserve to lead this country. Nobody should tell me that in the whole Southeast, there is no capable hand that all Nigerians can trust to become the President in 2023, there are so many of them, we should give them the chance. This is my personal opinion and the right and honorable thing to do.
If I am Bola Ahmed Tinubu, he is my mentor, my boss, but I will advice him not to run for Presidency in 2023 but throw his full weight behind an Igbo Presidential candidate. This is what I expect from Bola Tinubu my mentor
But Yoruba youth urchins on Nairaland who don't have a say in Nigeria nor own a wheelbarrow anywhere in Nigeria think it's by gragra
Bro let me speak objectively here as a south south man ... the South west deserves 2023.
Why?
1- besides south East , the north east and north central are yet to produce presidents ( yes or no? So if we are looking at geo-zones then that south east deserves is crap.
2- if we only to look at the south then arguing for south east presidency would be like a parent rewarding their son who failed his school exams with a brand new car - because politics is a school and it’s exam are in the form of elections - Jonathan was a sinking ship and rather than spread the risks by pitching their tent firmly in APC/PDP over 98% of their big wigs stuck to PDP and infact labeled APC a sharia party- remember?
3- politics is about alliances and promises , the SW has a firm interest in the ruling party because 98% of their big wigs are there promises had been made by their northern colleagues for SW support and they delivered -please note that the FIRST ALLIANCE IN THIS COUNTRY was between Igbos and Hausa/Fulani/northerners (Azikiwe and the sardauna’s parties) and the west HONOURABLY went into opposition. That’s politics.
So now it has been agreed presidency is coming to the north , you cannot tell a man with a dream with time not on his side to quash that dream in the interest of “fairness”- fairness has no place in politics and fairness is a very backward word...
Let the igbo politicians try to form alliances and see how they can perform well - if they don’t win then go back to the drawing board.
4- if we start “intra zoning” then this country can never progress and that’s fact
Maetet: Bbn is Organized by the smart who see a rare opportunity in a country with jobless youths who will always prefer entertainment to education
The only lesson I learn from this show is that, entertainment rules the world, I am planning on how to make money from people's stupidity especially Nairalanders who will watch and comment on a porn show rather than a business podcast
Even S_eun Osewa don cash out from BBnaija and Tonto dikeh thread like mad
what people "enjoy" doing cannot and should not be termed stupid...
You must be an ignorant troll... do you know how many people are PAID from BBN ?? the show does not interest so i don't watch it.
I watch football though... watching 22 men run around trying to kick/head a ball into the net should be classed as stupid too right?
If its a soft porn show then let those interested and off legal age watch,
you can't be ignorant about content and expect to get an idea of how to make money off entertainment ... it doesnt work out like that
klonboi: some of you don't know that Nigeria has expired, the contract that created it expired since 2014. Therefore there is no formal agreement existing between tribes in Nigeria living together.
Go school you no go gree go ... smh now look at you embarrassing yourself
What a shame ... and to those saying he can’t do anything don’t make me laugh. That thought process is actually typical of the Nigerian society they are protesting against
Miller232: In a sane country that address would have been sweeped by the police by now but our own policemen go dey for street dey find yahoo boys neglecting their job
They are GNLD guys who try to trick you into joining their network marketing crap thus they are NOT committing any crime per se.
One look at the text and policemen/dss will chuckle
Think I’m lying? Search the address or company name n see many people have casted them.
The mumu girl called them kidnappers and they responded aptly.
I call her a “mumu girl” because Twitter no be police station im sure she hasn’t bothered to go to the station and file a report on that number
Fahdiga: All this bloodbath by state actors just to discredit the eastern people will be their own undoing. All this incessant attacks has the signature of state agents written all over them and for them to come out to deny being involved lays credence to my ascertion. Igbos can not kill one of their own like this
Igbos cannot kill one of their own like this? What sort of ignorant assertion is that?
Recently we all saw a video where igbos killed and beheaded fellow igbos over cult issues,
Even before Buhari’s administration 95% of well-to-do igbos would hire 2-3 policeman when going to the East, especially during Xmas to avoid Kidnapping/murder. Isn’t one of Peter Obi’s legacies how he managed to tame these criminal kidnapping gangs?
I’m just wondering how deluded you must be to say Igbos can’t kill one of their own like this? If Cain killed Abel who are “igbos” in your warped mind?
The sooner you guys arrest this situation the better.
The Boko haram/ISWAP you see today started by attacking ONLY policemen and police stations , then moved to attacking ONLY Christians and Churches ... the northerners as expected ignorantly continued forming “political solution” etc
Aufbauh: Ndi saner clime, Enjoy your fuel scarcity in peace because we in Nigeria have fixed that part of problem under PMB
I just laugh at people in a hrry to "run" abroad... The average white Man is much more of a savage compared to us blacks na why dem dey give them everything (Utilities) possible so their "head" fit dey house.
Those guys will bring back slavery real quick if resources dwindle all over again.
That's why i will always tell Africans its Ok to run to america BUT you must not forget to develop industries in africa..,.
Kingcalls: Just look at how Napoli dismantled sampdoria away...now just try to watch juve at home to this same sampdoria this weekend and ud see how juve will fumble
I put them on my ticket to win ... really they should.
But let’s not forget same Samp held inter but Ac Milan and now Napoli have triumphed at Luigi ferraris this season.
Don’t be surprised if Spezia beats Milan sef this weekend.
Ball na spirit ... if you carry ginger you win if you dey go “Smeh smeh” you go collect lol
Reference: Not quite right. Say, the best Nigeria born strikers in the English Premiership. There were more prolific strikers in other European leagues in the past and a few better in the Eagles dugout over the years. But yes, his stats in the EPL remains unmatched.
The guy is right ... he’s one of the best we ever had wear the greenWhiteGreen
tradepunter: Some times to insult una is the right way.
Will america remain in afghanistan forever?? The idiotic Afghan that got 20 years of training why didn't they defend their father land??
You can't inflict harm on yourself because after all the talibans are Afghans.... Who on earth would want to take that burden of starting another round of war??
If you guys read and investigate you would know the ploy of china through it's proxy Pakistan and intelligence aid from russia to the taliban was to tigger america to provoke another round of conflict that will lock them down for another couple of years.
This will weaken the usa and its allies which would work in chinese and russian favor...
You said they will leave taiwan I laugh... More american lives were lost in the korean war which was a proxy war between China and Russia against the usa.
China provided training and heavy weapons which lead to the north occupying majority of the south all the Incheon... But when america came they pushed the Chinese backed north korean back all the way to their Capital.
It was then china now warned that any further advancement would lead to all out war which will most likely be the the third world war.
So my guy every body in life picks their battles and this is what america just did.
You can't tire down your resources and manpower in a country that are not ready to defend themselves.... They would have pulled out after killing bin laden... So pulling out now was long way overdue
America did not beat North Korea back America made a deal to preserve their dignity ... it was a stalemate
Both sides invaded the other but couldn’t win
So they settled for the parralel. Simple
As for Taiwan Oga forget story China will absorb the country sooner or later because its PART of China
Ask yourself if the US will allow any of its state secede?
mightyhaze: My heart and prayers are with all those poor aquatic creatures whom take the brunt of all these war games.. they'd keep wondering in futility what they did to deserve all that massive bombardment of their habitats
If you eat fish and other aquatic meals then your comment makes zero sense
