PHILipu1:

Can you tell us the party the underage voted for in 2015?

PHILipu1:

Because PDP didn't win this elections?
I guess only elections that PDP is allow to rig and win that is now free and fair in Nigeria.

potterdon:
are u not countering yourself u just said their is nothing like free and fair election and u still want people to keep fooling themselves in the polls. my brother u better wake up. Nigeria is going down. When jubril wins this 2019 election.

nwanyionitsha:
Gej appointed Jega too.

Snowfancy:
good point, u see i have always told my friends that ibos marginalisation(as claimed) is their fault. cant say much about ibos at home(south) but those at north dont go out to vote. the only thing an ibo does on election day is to stay at home a wait untill the voting is over then come and open his shop. if only they would come out and vote then their voting strength would speak for them.

Buhari’s failed government is affecting everyone in Nigeria. But to different degrees. The average igbo man or woman is still living better than the average northerner or yoruba. Under Buhari poor economy, I have withnessed the construction boom in private real estate happening in Igboland. I can’t say the same for other regions except for lagos and Abuja. Igbos overall are economically better than the rest of Nigerians because over the years, they have developed lesser and lesser dependence of government.

horsepower101:


No I am not. Voter apathy is dangerous. There are other elections going on the same time as presidential elections. Those local leaders, state governors and reps also need to be voted in by the people and not win by default.

But Jega, who is a northerner turned against him. It was later revealed that he had a secret meeting in Dubai with some northerners in support of Buhari before that elections.

Now Buhari ( a well known ethnic bigot) instead of appointing a southerner ended up appointing a northerner of his choice.

NinjaMetahuman:
lmao atleast this one Is not completely delusional like the army of dumb flat heads littering this forum.

But then, flat head will always be a flat head.

horsepower101:


This is not about PDP or APC. This is about INEC conduct of the election.

If you honestly believe that those elections were free and fair, then I give up.

horsepower101:


APC

Warship:


OK, provide evidence since you followed his campaign.

0monnak0da:

The onus is on YOU to provide evidence.
Can you reason at all?

horsepower101:
This is not to discourage you from participating in the political process but here are my predictions for 2019 and beyond.

1) Atiku will lose the election. It wont be a free nor fair election. Dont be delusional.

2) There will be an online and offline backlash from northerners and yorubas against Igbos just like 2015. Get ready for it.

3) After about 6 months of bragging and celebration of buhari's win settles, the reality of the dire state of the economy sets in.

4) Igbos will continue to do their business and prosper. No need to panic.

5) The poor supporters of buhari will most likely remain poor.

6) The rich will continue to get richer.


So with all these predictions, Ndigbo need to continue investing back home in the east. Lets stop developing other parts of Nigeria with our hard earned money, sweat and blood.

I am proud of Ndigbo no matter the outcome. I will always be.

I think it’s time to resurrect this thread. I predicted this election and it turns out that I was right.

Ugosample:


Igbos contributed to the defeat

first of all many did not go to register for pvc,you guys were forming "I'm busy"

even for some that collected, they did not come out to vote


The Igbos (especially back home in the SE) are politically naive and immature

A lot of Igbos were listening to that fool nnamdi kanu, now look at the results

And a whole lot more

even the so called SE foolish leaders that disrupted electoral processes in their states to pave way for a Buhari win, in exchange for a pittance, (Okorocha especially) you guys are another problem.
The north will NEVER disrupt electoral processes in their states for a southern candidate, NEVER EVER


now Buhari will extend his incompetence by another four years, and you have to live with it.
worst is that you cannot even complain, because when you had the chance to protest via vote, you blew it!


Now go back to second fiddle in Nigeria's affairs

The day my kinsmen know the power they have in their numbers, and bandy together, that's the day we will be seen as serious people

But for now, the country sees Igbos as unserious people politically

horsepower101:


Me personally, igbos need to focus more on dominating Nigerian economy. The Jews in America influences their politics because of their economic dominance. When oil money runs out, those with the economic power will call the political shots. For now let’s focus on economic development through our perseverance and hardworking nature.

Omololu001:
dey deceive yourself for there

Ugosample:


Oga
The Igbos are the most fragile ethnic group in Nigeria


and the worst part is that most of them cannot see it.

I'd be in onitsha again this June/July briefly
I'd hear our uncles boasting

that they run the economy, bla bla bla.

BUT

The institutions and policy makers that DETERMINE Whether you suceed or fail in Nigeria is firmly in Aboki hands

you have zero control over that.

The jews often capture that first, the big banks, the central banks, etc


The day the establishments decide to deal with igbo people and their so called "businesses" ; what can we as igbos do about that?

when the policy makers keep making bad policies that kill businesses
what can an ordinary trader or at best an "industrialist'" somewhat do

when I tell them

they laugh and scorn

Illiterate

mercyville:


I am sorry but what determines that one depends on government that you have said severally?
How do you also determine that you are economically better than the South West.
Economically,most south West states are better and have more middle class than the South East,have more IGR than south east states.
I toured Ibadan(around 95℅ Yoruba peopled... you can try confirming this too)last week and with its vastness,I was shocked to see the beehive of activities as per modern houses been developed here and there(I will implore you too to do this and come back and tell us who is poorer between Yorubas and Igbos.
You have very scanty buildings in Igboland which cannot be compared to Ibadan.
The truth is the UNDP,NBS,WORLD BANK had correctly said that Igbos are the most poverty stricken in the South of Nigeria.

Ugosample:


I feel it's the other way

The policy makers control the economy

The businessman is just a participant

#dasall.

But I know one day, the igbo man will wake up and do the needful.

horsepower101:


They day those so called establishments decide to “deal with igbos” as you put it is the Day Nigerian economy will crash. This is a statement of fact.

horsepower101:


Any policy in this current Nigeria that is specifically aimed at targeting the igbos will eventually affect all of Nigeria economy. This is my main point.

Unless those policy makers love to commit economic suicide.

Ugosample:


and who will suffer from the economic crash?

lmao

only if you knew

But then

it was just an illustration to show how important that role is

horsepower101:


I Never said that role is not important but he that pays the piper calls the tunes. Igbos should focus on economy as they always have. It will serve them well in the long term.

A post oil economy in Nigeria will be a gold mine for igbos. They are already positioned to take advantage of it. They just need to be strategic.

Ugosample:






you see, you are one of them

I thought as much


Make una continue down this path

when it happens, I know I tried to tell as many people as I could.

Make NO MISTAKE

he who controls the politics and the structure/institutions control the economy /country

I don talj my own

horsepower101:


Not true. There is a difference between control and influence.

They can influence the economic policies but they can’t control the economy. Igbos businesses have been able to survive because of their ability to adapt to external influences.

Once again there is a difference between influence and control.

Unless Nigeria becomes communism.
