Yorubas Should Vote In Bloc For An Igbo Presidential Candidate In 2019 by Stricker321: 2:23pm On Oct 13, 2016 |
Come 2019, Yorubas should vote in bloc for an Igbo presidential candidate. The SE/SS will also vote for this candidate. The hausa/fulani will all queue up behind their Buhari as usual. This will lead to a stalemate and the resolution of this will determine the future of Nigeria. This is the surest way to solidify unity the south and pass a clear message to the caliphate.

Name that Igbo politician or likely candidates and their merits. If they deserve to be voted for, Nigerians will vote for them. We are more rational than you think. 10 Likes |

That is the probably the only way to start anything that resembles southern unity. A Yoruba presidential candidate will never be accepted by the South as a test-run project for southern unity, and the fulanis up north will always checkmate you. And Buhari himself is nothing close to world-class or ideal, so finding someone better in igboland shouldn't be that much of a big deal deal. 7 Likes |

olapluto:I don't think Nigeria has any world class presidential candidate that I know of, but in terms of being better than buhari I think they are quite available. Peter Obi- Vey efficient and Lean govt, frugal with emphasis on Maximizing generated Resource, and with a Good Economic Sense. Willie Obiano- Still watching Him, but he Seem to have a good head on his shoulders when it comes to utilizing resources, progressive ideas. and citizen welfare. Anambra state has increased salaries to workers even in the midst of recession, with increase in IGR. Sullivan Chime- A bit sickly last I heard, but he is decent with respect to Nigerin standard. Enugu's best governor till date and probably the reason why the state is one of Nigeria's most habitable places. The above candidates just need a decent Vice president and you get an infinitely better pair than what you currently have. 8 Likes |

Did the Igbos tell you they are looking for presidency? Continue to make presidency your standard of success. Continue fighting for presidency since that is what you guys are living for but make sure you remove Igbos in your delusion. For your small mind this is how the ethnic groups will continue to engage shamelessly in the cutthroat struggle for power while sane countries are advancing in every sphere of development. 4 Likes |

This is ridiculous. Why should people of any ethnic origin vote for any candidate based on nothing more than his or her ethnic roots? Do you think being able to govern well is determined primarily by where your parents come from? Instead of all this nonsense about "Yorubas/Igbos/Northerners should" this, that or the other, why not talk about what the various candidates stand for, and how well they've been able to keep their promises in the past? I would rather vote for a candidate who said the right things about deregulation, privatization, lowering the cost of business and attracting foreign investment, even if he/she comes from the moon, than for some useless thief who happens to come from "SS/SW/SE" even if we share the same father. Give me a northerner in the mold of Nuhu Ribadu any day over a Bode George or a TA Orji! 5 Likes |

ElsonMorali:Nigerian politics is already tribalized. You need a fresh start to start something more progressive. And to only way to get a fresh start is when stakeholders are satisfied and have trust in a system. A yoruba candidate can never get the support of the south for now even if he/she is the best candidate? Why? The need for Justice and fair play. And the only bloc that can create a progressive electoral system that would influence the rest of the country is the south for obvious reasons. The north will not do that for you. So there need to be political equilibrium in the south before anything happens. 2 Likes |

Funny OP. Make una put foward the candidate first then we can decide. But then again, even igbos won't give an igbo candidate bloc votes. Yorubas decide elections coz we are swing voters. Everyone knows where igbos will swing from early in the game while Yorubas keep everyone guessing, that is why we are the the perennial determinants and kingmakers. |

CSTR2: While I agree with some of your assertions, I believe the main thrust of our energy as youths should be channelled into getting Nigeria to practice true fiscal federalism. Decentralized power. Give more autonomy to regions, states and local governments. Let us determine our own future. Let each region grow at it's own pace. That is more achievable and a better objective than trying to unite Southern Nigeria. A pipe dream if you ask me. The ghost of biafra civil war is very much active. Instead of canvassing votes for somebody because of his region 1 Like |
