Buhari Does Not Need 5% Votes Of Igbos To Win In A Landslide In 2019....They Didnt Vote him 2015, why are they crying now...Let them Stick To Their Ethnic PDP and Continue Crying Marginalization Till APC Finishes Their 32 Years Uninterrupted Rule...Then We Can Count Scores..

what was the difference between GEJ and PMB in 2015.

2.4MILLION VOTES OR SO

average voters in the south east will be above 3 million in 2019.

If they come out enmasse with the over 9million registered voters in the region there will be big trouble for Buhari. Dont delude your self. Buhari knows better

I used to ask anybody that cares to listen,that if Buhari can treat igbos like this in his first term(when many Governors/Presidents used to work everybody to attract votes for 2nd term),what will happen to igbos when he come back for 2nd term?. Some of my igbo leaders are bunch of hypocrites.lets call spade a spade

Votes are same for politicians; non is genuine. What is genuine in GEJ throwing dollars at anything that moved in 2015; or the village square votting pattern of South East or the underage votting in the North. It's all about numbers; and in the game of numbers, fair is foul and foul is fair. The people rarely count

Well said.

Wise people knows the truth. Buhari is just trying the use the weak point of the south east and south south weak point for his election ambition for 2019.

If not while waiting till now?. why didnt he go and address the cause of agitations instead of sending military to go and kill?. why did it take him 2years and more before he visit the people of SE.

But i know that my people are not fools. He has already make the mistake.

nairavsdollars:
Chief Olisa Agbakoba, former president of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), on Tuesday, said President Buhari’s visit to the South East region after more than two years in power was very dishonourable and not aimed at addressing the alleged marginalisation of the region.

Speaking with INDEPENDENT, Agbakoba said the president having realised that election was around the corner was trying to warm his way into the hearts of Igbos so as to get cheap votes.

According to him, “I don’t think his visit will resolve the issue of marginalisation in the region.

“You ignored the South East since coming to power and now you are visiting after two and half years in office.

“The way I see it is that his visit to the South East is simply to look for cheap votes. I don’t see his visit as genuine.

“Where has he been all this while? Why didn’t he visit since he took power?

“Why now that he has started wearing suits and Igbo dresses again? I find his visit very dishonourable.

“After two and half years of ignoring the South East and marginalising the region, you suddenly wear Igbo outfit and you expect me to say ‘well done’.

“No, I won’t say that until I see something meaningful on the ground; not until I see infrastructural development, not until I see employment, not until I see the Second Niger Bridge will I agree.

“Seeing is believing, but right now, I don’t believe that his visit is genuine.”

All of these traditional leaders are for sale.

It has been this way for at least two centuries and that is why they should be done away with. What do any of them do besides spend other people's money and engage in nonsense photo ops?

But the game has changed. He is not sure of getting South West votes enbloc as he did in 2015 so he needs the support of the South East
What do you mean by en bloc?

Buhari won only between 55% and 60% of SW in 2015. Is that one en bloc?

GBAM!
Buhari likes to treat the SE like SH*T but knows he needs some votes there to win.
He is only out to get 25% of the votes to fulfill the constitutional requirement to win an election.

Hmmm, what if he ends up not contesting?

You never can tell, he could be positioning himself to be hailed as a hero just like GEJ. smiley

For the records, igbos will not vote for him not even now and not in 2019.
We didn vote for him wen he and Umezoke contested against ONJ in 1999, we didnt vote for him wen he and okadgibo contested agains OBJ in 2003, we didn vote for him wen he and fola Adeolu contested against yar adua in 2007, we didn vote for him wen he and Tunde Bakare contested GEJ 2011 and we didnt vote for him wen he and Osinbanjo contested in 2015. this alone should tell him and his cohorts wat the igbos are saying to him or meant. If he likes let him collect all the titles, wear all the ogbo cloths and even speak our language, it will fly for him not now and not later, if he likes let him share money like GEJ did in 2015, he is simply on his own. wit all the public holiday declared yesterday yet no crowd came excpet those rented and paid.
