I like d speech of d new Ohaneze Ndigbo President. Pls read objectively.
In my own opinion, d enemy of Ndigbo is Ndigbo itself. I remember a time in this country when all d 6 ministers in Jonathan's kitchen cabinet were all Igbo's. Ayim Pius Ayim was SGF, Ngozi Okonjo Iwealla was in charge finance, Emeka Wogu was in Labour and productivity, Berth Nnaji was in Power and Energy, Dieziani Madueke was d powerful minister for oil. The 6 of them outside d Federal Executive Council would meet and decide what and what not to be discussed at d larger FEC. Whatever they decided would eventually be d position of government. In 6 years, this was d situation. Okiro and Onovo had d police under their control. Ihejerika and later Minimah controlled d Army. These powerful Igbo's could do and undo. Nigeria was in their pockets.
Rather than care about d poor Igbo chaps scattered all over d country, they were busy diverting billions of naira into their accounts at home and abroad. D 2nd Niger Bridge, they didn't do. They shared d money. The Lagos/Calabar rail lines passing through 9 States, 3 of them in d SE, they were not bothered. They refused to pay d Chinese d Counter part fund. They shared d money. Enugu/Onitsha, Aba/PH and other roads of economic importance to their fellow Igbo's, they abandoned.
Who is to blame? Who is marginalising d Igbo's?
You had your chance, you bungled it. There was only 1 Yoruba minister worth mentioning at d time, Akinwunmi Adesina. He was in Agric. His budget was less than 1% while Emeka Wogu in Labor had over 10% for his ministry, Ayim had unlimited access to d treasury for d benefit of himself and family members. The poor Igbo guys meant nothing to him. If an Igbo becomes President tomorrow after Jonathan, will there be any difference? The Igbo man will marginalise his fellow Igbo people.

What is it with you people and Igbos? Won't you people die on Igbo matters? Gosh this is so annoying

Stop beating about the bush!!

What chance did they have??

Were they the only six persons in the government??

And even if they were,, are they just supposed to wake up one morning and change Nigeria??

wow!

That is why I always say , the marginalization is that of the political elite against the citizens
Go to the north , you see poverty . Every ethnic is being marginalized by their political elites -period

The moment those shouting Biafra because of marginalization realised that , the better for them .

Because they cant claim they've not held and are holding high political offices .

What did the north gain in all the years of military rule ? Nothing

This write-up is so pointless.
Op what r u driving at?
We should not seek self determination because we once had six individuals in Nigerian government?

What kind of madness is this.
So the igbos in GEJ government were supposed to channel the whole Nigerian budget to igboland,
All the money spent on the new universities
The almajiri schools
The airport rehabilitation
The rail way rehabilitation that you people called locomotives.
The Benin Ore sagamu highway
The money spent on agric /rice revolution.
So it's the igbos in GEJ government that made Buhari to stop all the projects in the se/ss like the Niger bridge, east west rd, etc.
So the people didn't share the money meant for the Abuja kd rail that Buhari completed and commissioned.
Even the trans coastal railway that was on its infancy stage, they also shared the money.
You people need to get a life.
