Anambralstson:

Ike Ekweremadu, deputy senate president, is rallying south-east leaders to back the choice of Peter Obi as the vice-presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), TheCable understands.

Both men were top favourites considered by Atiku Abubakar as running mate in the 2019 presidential election, with Obi getting the nod.

However, south-east political leaders, comprising the zone’s PDP governors, national assembly caucus, board of trustee members and other party leaders, rose from a meeting on Saturday complaining that they were not consulted over the choice of Obi, a former governor of Anambra state.

An insider at the meeting said Ekweremadu asked aggrieved leaders to calm down and support the choice of Obi, who seems to have been better received outside the south-east than by his own constituency.

“Ekweremadu reminded us that the major task now is to get the PDP back to power and save the country from its downward spiral,” a party leader who attended the meeting told TheCable.


“He even joked that it wouldn’t matter if Atiku picked a northerner as his running mate, as long as it would get the repressive government of Buhari out of power.”

Although the meeting was convened with the agenda of rejecting Obi’s nomination, the south-east leaders were reportedly shocked by Ekweremadu’s position.

“You cannot weep more than the bereaved. We thought we were fighting for him, but he said we should allow Obi be. We were shocked by his sportsmanship,” the insider said.

The major anger of the leaders, according to insiders, was that Atiku did not ask for their input in making the choice.

Among those considered were Ekweremadu, Obi, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Osita Chidoka, and Austin Akobundu, a retired colonel and the national organsing secretary of the PDP.

Mustafa Chike-Obi, former MD of AMCON, did not make the final shortlist, contrary to a previous report by TheCable.

Nyesom Wike, governor of Rivers state, was said to have backed Obi in order to spite south-east leaders for not supporting his candidate, Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, for the presidential ticket.

The south-east reportedly voted en masse for Atiku at the PDP convention.

The south-east leaders preferred Ekweremadu because of his broad-based experience as a former council chairman, former secretary to the government of Enugu state, and two-term deputy senate president.

The geo-political zone’s leaders are expected to make their grievances known to Atiku at a meeting scheduled for the week.

Why wouldn't he do so, does he have a choice? He knows that he cannot reap where he did not sow. He worked for Saraki while obi worked for Atiku. so the natural thing was for Atiku to choose the person that believe in him, while he Ekweremadu will have to take heart for the choice he made which did not materialise.

I wonder how this politicians always feel like, you just have only one vote and probably your family vote too, and you think you have the right to be consulted first before anyone can take decision for a particular region.

Does it means that the citizens don't know what they want or because you're in a place of authority and so deem it fit to take decision on their behalf, BTW how did you get to that position?


Hmmm.

All of you saying the Igbos are their own enemies should just stop already. All tribes, even immediate families have their differences. It is their ability to resolve their dispute amicably that shows how mature they are. Afterall, we all know how the Yorubas never liked OBJs emergence as president. As I type, the Calabaris in Rivers State from same APC don't want Tonye Cole as APC candidate, who is their own son. It happens everywhere.
You people should stop typing this thrash of Igbos being their own enemies. Must they agree all the time ?

Your write-ups show you know completely little about the Ibos. They are not generally structured to allow just one person to have his or her way rather they like to negotiate to agree.... That's why they normal appear to be divided but in reality I don't think they are divided. Ibos believe in Synergy and collective effort so don't feel worried when they feel betrayed by being sidelined.
All in all, Obi is their son and I am watching to see how it goes. The Deputy SP has continued to show leadership and igbotic mentality of igwebuike

Random fact: there's no one who won an election to become the president of Nigeria without wining Lagos and/or Kano.

I can bet MY Fortune that the APC are going to win Kano and Lagos. grin
