Balarabe Musa Goes Against The North, Drums Support For Igbo Presidency In 2019 by Upritman(m): 10:56am On Feb 17, 2018
@Suanu'sBlog


Alhaji Abdulkadir Balarabe Musa, has drummed support for the Igbos to produce the president of Nigeria in 2019.
Musa, who is a former governor of old Kaduna State and National Chairman of the defunct Peoples Redemption Party (PRP), called for the zoning of the 2019 presidency to the South-East.

Speaking in an interview with Saturday Sun in Kaduna, Musa said this has become necessary because the Igbo have been cheated for too long by denying them a shot at the presidency over the years.

The PRP national leader also alleged that Hausa and Yoruba should be held responsible for the political backwardness of the Igbo.
He wondered why the nation’s dominant ethnic groups find it difficult to tolerate an Igbo presidency, adding that the northern elders’ push for a consensus northern presidential candidate for the 2019 polls is all about their personal rather than national interests.
He warned that the bid is bound to fail like previous attempts.

“ Igbo are more Nigerian than the North or South West in terms of their commitments to the unity of Nigeria. And this is right from 1950s.
They are more committed to the Nigeria project. Let’s even talk of tribe; the Igbo are more committed to national unity. They have never expressed separatist tendency, until after the war because of the effect of the war. They have always been for one united Nigeria than the Yoruba and Hausa that have always been secessionists.
The Igbo are more competitive than the Hausa and the Yoruba. The Hausa and Yoruba bourgeoisie are afraid of this, in particular when there is so much to share in Nigeria. They are afraid of the Igbo because they are not competitive.
Igbo are more competitive because they don’t have inhibition. The inhibition of Hausa, the inhibition of Yoruba is not there. The Yoruba can only talk of Oduduwa, the Hausa can only talk to you about empires and so on. But the Igbo are not that inhibitive, they are more republican.
You can say largely that Igbo are free thinkers; they are more free thinkers than the Hausa and the Yoruba, which means Igbo can take things on face value, while the Yoruba and Hausa will not. Igbo are more competitive in terms of economic activities. An Igbo man is more competitive than a Yoruba man and an Hausa man.”

Wise man, this is my opinion.

Nigeria presidency is useless and over rated. It did nothing for the Southwest under OBJ and nothing for Southsouth under GEJ, nothing for the North under Yaradua and Buhari.

Give it to Ibos and Biafra dies naturally. They cannot tell us any Biafra after collecting the presidency, the world will never accept dat, nobody will listen to dem.

Gowon no victor or vanquished accomplished and the Ibo fully reintegrated into Nigeria. Win! win!

Below is part of the interview with Musa.

Do you also feel emotional about his response...or, all you do is to perpetual hide your bruised head under the sand?

Don’t you think that it is because Igbo are agitating for a republic of their own?

No, it is not because the Igbo were agitating for a republic. Igbo are more Nigerian than the North or South West in terms of their commitments to the unity of Nigeria. And this is right from 1950s. They are more committed to the Nigeria project. Let’s even talk of tribe; the Igbo are more committed to national unity.

We Igbos aren't foolish to fall for talks like this.

The North has to complete their 8 years after which handover to the Igbos or risk having Biafra materialize.

So the ball is in the hands of the North.

The old man has a point, but an Igbo presidency with the current system is a failure on the making. Igbo presidency is not the solution to the Nigerian problem, her structure and corrupt cum nepotic system is.
