They don't want Biafla again?

Till the day you will start to have regard and respect for the Igbos, that will be the day your tribe Yoruba will start to see the true light. You people just hate every step that Igbos made as if we are the cause of your dwendlyn nature. in 1993,Abiola whom is a Yoruba man received massive support from Igbos, which made him the winner of the aborted election. Obasanjo gained same support and won all the Eastern state, you never see it as a Taboo. Now we are in between Red sea and Pharaoh Armies, you want us to choose who?, think properly.

Though they weren't a written agreement between both tribes, but the idea was to help make sure South equals North in terms of political structure, but all that got eroded at the emergency of Buhari.

At this point, Igbos have decided to play the Yoruba game, which is... support North, instead of Southern candidate.

ORIENTATION101:
this igbo leaders never learn from their past mistakes. they making this atiku presidency look like an igbo agenda with all these jamboree

globemoney:

Word on the street says Obi is gay. I hope them never recruit you like valentine obienyem

SouthEastFacts:

Ndi Igbo and Yoruba Christians are supporting Atiku to save the nation from Buhari's calamity while yoruba moslems supported a known jihadist banned for 15 years in US because of greed

greatman247:



Idiot, you think I'm like you right? Continue reading this same thread you will read a long note I just wrote. I'm all up in your face. If you are for Atiku watch it and ready for your Atiku's failure and your likes with cry in 2019. Peeps like you will scream APC rigged Buhari into power cos Buhari will beat your useless Atiku hands down. Just watch and see. In the mean time, I don't backdown cos I'm all up in your stupid face. You will continue to see me fool.

Alexis11:


Ask your parents if you don't know. Igbos only supported Obasanjo in 1999 just because he was contesting against another Yoruba man who was obviously the Southwest choice. I'm sure you guys would not have voted Obasanjo if he was contesting against another Northerner. The records are there.

ericsmith:



some of you just talk after over feeding ,,, are you even aware buhari 1st alliance under cpc was with an igbo as VP ..same Buhari some rogues brainwashed you guys to believe hates SE picked an igbo twice as running mate .... do i really blame pdp they know must Nigerians are gully & the youths are educated illiterates with poor memory storage.
Did the east even give Buhari any chance as at 2015 before showcasing pure hatred ... they say it's not personal they don't just want an Hausa fulani Muslim but today they are ass licking another Hausa fulani man atiku .. beating chest no record to show
is there any other way one can a tribe so confuse & directionless as the igbos without insulting the credible 5% amongst them, .apparently they stand for nothing hence why they fall for anything ..

Ojiofor:


The only thing Ndi Igbo hasn't done is to support a northerner against an incumbent southerner which the Yorubas did in 2015.

Corrinthians:
I can't even believe what you people are saying!

This is downright sickening.

WHY MUST ONE SUPPORT A SOUTHERNER?

WHAT DID YORUBAS GAIN or WERE GAINING FROM JONATHAN'S GOVERNMENT?

Open this link..

That was what Yorubas were going through under Jonathan and when they complained those were the responses they got from our wonderful IGBO SOUTHERN BROTHERS!

Yet you wanted them to VOTE JONATHAN AGAIN SIMPLY BECAUSE HE IS A SOUTHERNER?

Is that how intelligent you people are?

Fool.
Go and get hold of the state by state result sheet of the 1993 presidential election.

AkpaMgbor:

You are a natural born and bred liar! Igbos voted for a fulani man named musa yaradua..when Obasanjo brought him to aba Igbos welcomed him whole heartedly and it showed in their votes..Igbos just don't like Buhari as a person(no matter his running mate)..they know Buhari for who he was/is and will continue to be..Igbos witnessed his nepotic hounding and incarceration of ekwueme when he(Buhari) seized power with the muzzle of his gun..what did Buhari do to ekwueme's principal(shagari)?..he let him off with house arrest..even the Yorubas were not let off by his nepotic claws and they made it known in their votes....until 2015..all of a sudden that same Buhari became an angel in white to them..and because the Igbos still stood their ground on the person of Buhari, you lots began attacking them? Double faced humanoids!

Corrinthians:
Please Id like to ask a couple of questions.

- After the defeat of the preferred candidate of Ndigbo in 2015 presidential election, they rented the air and cyberspace with cries about Yorubas being "betrayers".

- Not done with calling them betrayers, they went on to call them "Hausa/Fulani slaves" because they chose to vote a Fulani man, Buhari, who triumphed over their preferred candidate.

Now..

1. What makes Yorubas betrayers for choosing to exercise their freedom of association? Did they cut any deal with the Ndigbo to support Jonathan? Who were the political leaders that made the deal with Ndigbo on behalf of Yorubas?

2. What makes Yorubas slaves? Since when did forming political alliances in furtherance and promotion of a people's collective interest amount to SLAVERY?

3. What did Yorubas do then which Ndigbo aren't doing now, especially with one of their sons chosen as the VP candidate same way a Yoruba son was picked by Buhari?

Lastly and most importantly..

How would Igbos feel if those same words they have been using to describe Yorubas since 2015 is now used to describe them?

AkpaMgbor:

Like a rabid dog you keep spreading your epileptic spittle everywhere..your imbecility must be divinely gifted..you can rig Buhari till eternity who gives a fvck? The Igbos have made their stand..you can keep frothing your rabies infested gibberish I don't give a fvck.

Investbrooker:

Here it is. Iboes never voted for Abiola. Tofa won Iboland. Hope you have seen it. Ibo people and lies

argon500:


That was a false teaching cos it does not correspond with reality on ground. Governors have 65% ( if not more)of say before masses

OkaNaUbe:



Your analysis has K-Leg. From Paragraph 1, yes Obasanjo was President as a compensation to Yoruba's. Didn't he do second tenure? Was there no vote? Did he not win landslide in SE?

Ya'Adua "was handpicked by Obj" yes. But was there no election? There was and PDP won landslide in SE.

You are right that north has 19 States but the bulk votes comes from NW, mainly Kano.

You said APGa will divide votes in SE? Which candidate are they fielding for the Presidential election? None!

You left out NC in your analysis. They and SW ultimately decides where the Presidency goes. For now, Atiku will divide votes up North but Buhari may win most States there NC (already disenchanted by killings and land grabbing that was resisted) and SE will vote landslide for PDP. The wahala is SW. If the vote for Buhari, he might win by a small margin.

0monnak0da:
Who Eboe epp?

Investbrooker:

You dont like buhari because he was running against Jonathan. You benefitted the most under Jonathan, hence, your full support for him. Only Ibo people took, the SGF post, Finance ministry, Aviation, power and even CBN. Greedy people

greatman247:





Igbo has never help anyone my brother. Atiku can have them. Buhari has won in 2015 wthout them before he can do it again.

hysteriabox:
Atiku already sounds like APC back in 2015 when they desperately needed votes. Too many promises that are obviously too good to be true. Plus,it appears the political logic of Pdp beats me. You have bagged the SE n SS by simply choosing a VP from there and the steady allegiance to the party since 2015.why concentrate your energy there. The vote Player is the SW. Alot to contend for. Besides, the north feels the SE never liked buhari/them. Too much association will misinform d North which ll further push the dem away. I say it Again - APC DOESN'T NEED THE SE TO WIN. THEY DIDN'T IN 2015,THEY DON'T COME 2019.THE BATTLE GROUND HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE SW, LAGOS IN PARTIGILAR.

AkpaMgbor:

And who has your family and tribe helped in all their existence? Igbos don't owe you anything..the earlier you realise and accept that the better for you.

ozodigboo:

Why is Ebonyi not there ? Or was it deleted ?

codedguy1:


Has campaign started officially? What makes you think he is concentrating in the SE/SS he has probably gone there to assuade them based on the rancour that geminated from there when Obi was chosen as his VP. It is the right thing to do.

He will go to other regions to sell himself, how he is accepted is another thing.

I'm pretty sure you know those who called you slave are kids in Nairaland like you. Why do you always use comments on nairaland to generalize the Igbos or Yorubas?
