I WANT TO ASK MY IGBO NAIRALANDERS A QUESTION. WHAT IF JONATHAN WINS THE PDP TICKET AND THEN THE 2011 ELECTIONS. WILL IT BE POSSIBLE FOR HIM TO HANDOVER TO AN IGBO PRESIDENT IN 2015 OR 2019?.

IN MY OPINION, I THINK THE IGBOS SHOULD RESPECT THE PDP ZONING ARRANGEMENT NOW AND BE ASSURED OF THE PRESIDENCY IN 2015 OR 2019. IF JONATHAN USES UP THE CHANCE NOW. IT MAY BECOME DIFFICULT IF NOT IMPOSSIBLE BY THEN.

ANYWAY, I'M NOT A SUPPORTER OF IBB. BUT I WANT THE IGBOS TO THINK AHEAD.

ziddy:

Any aspirant that tells you he will hand over after one term is lying through his teeth.

True, Igbos can forget about 2015 not really because of Jonathan getting the southern slot, but mainly because they don't have what it takes!

All they have are regional power-brokers & rent-seekers, they haven't got one politician of national stature/credibility who can duke it out on the national stage, come 2015. So they should just forget about 2015 & go put their house in order.

Ken Nnamani that had some measure of credibility has just soiled his hands on the IBB-comeback project. Who else is there? Orji Kalu? Tufiakwa! Sullivan Chime? The Igbos are bereft of credible leadership/statesmen, let's face the bitter truth!

Did I just hear a Yoruba man say we do not have a credible leader?

Amaechi is my governor and he is doing wonders for Rivers State. And unlike Fashola, he is part of the ruling PDP.

Amaechi would make a wonderful Igbo president of Niger Deltan extraction.

You are definitely talking thru your anus, use your head next time.

Look through your dammmn tribal bias. Amaechi is doing wonders in Rivers State. Do not come to my territory with that nonsense.

Tell me what Fashola has done that Amaechi hasn't. I know you Yorubas are ignorant of the rest of the country. You all only know Yoruba leaders so shut up EWU.

babasoty:

hmmm Ameachi yes he is trying but seriously he should concentrate on his priorities, he came out education, promised building 250 schools but to be sincere most of those schools are just empty, most of them look abandoned apart from a few that have been completed and i don't understand the rational of building schools on play fields after that where would the kids play or have their inter houses games though i would commend him for emphasizing on that sector but more monitoring should be done not awarding the contracts for that to your friends to please them  , destroying UPTH was a wrong move rather it should have been rehabilitated and the novel hospital he wants to build sited somewhere else in the new greater phc master plan, that would have creeped in development in that area of the master plan, another silly thing was pulling down the obi-wali cultural center for a cinema, dumbest move i have ever seen, even him has noticed that his road contractors aren't living up to expectations with the slow pace and pot holes coming up after construction of the roads, his much talked about road rehabilitaion stuff, its just a hype, i would score him high in security and sanity of port harcourt, yes on that note he deserves kudos and only on that note only.

Ezeuche mr brother we dont hear about rivers state govenors work. I think igbos should do more to accept non igbos in the East like more mosques appointment of northerners and westerners in their government.

If we are one Nigeria then ndigbo should do more so more northerners can migrate to the East.

MaziUche0:

amingafar,

Who are you fooling? We already know that you are not a northerner. You are simply a Yoruba who is trying to portray himself as a Northerner. Probably a regular poster, so you are not fooling anyone. So do us a favor and sign into your regular name.

Northerners are not as ignorant of the country as the Yoruba. There are plenty of Northerners in the East. Especially in Port Harcourt, Aba and Onitsha. And they understand who is control in the East. Why would they not know since oil is found in the region.

I see more Hausa in Port Harcourt when I was growing up instead of Yorubas.

MaziUche0:

You are a fool and you are not any northerner. Like I said previously, I see more Hausa in the East than Yorubas. That speaks volumes.

In Aba, the Hausa community has been in that area for generations. They intermarry and speak Igbo as good as any Igbo man. T.A. Orji also built a mosque for these Muslims as well in Umuahia. So do not speak about something you do not know. . .

Like I said, a TRUE northerner would not say this, only an ignorant Yoruba who does not leave his region would say such nonsense. You probably have never been to the North either.

You act as if Amaechi is not trying to do these things. It is disingenuous of you to say such things, not knowing the complexity of Port Harcourt. In addition, among all the politicians in Nigeria, I have seen dramatic changes in Port Harcourt that cannot be denied. I know Fashola has not kept some of his promises, but you do not see people harassing him as much as they Amaechi. Amaechi is a good governor. Everyone knows Nigerian contractors use cheap material and are not very efficient. That is why Amaechi said he is going to use foreign contractors who are more expensive, but they get the job done. It is funny that you blame the pot holes on him though, because you act like he is responsible for that mess. Roads are bad in Lagos, does Fashola get blamed. Go to Abia and see the mess that state is in and people are just flocking to Rivers State.

Igbos should vote for IBB

But as a muslim and a proper muslim I will not vote for an igbo unless he is muslim.

Why would I vote for an christian when i am muslim. How many christian govenors have you seen in Niger state? and 40% of niger state is christisn and we still have sharia

seanet02:

It takes two to tango, IBB and Ojukwu are satanic colleagues so leave them alone

why should igbos vote for IBB

supereagle:

IBB shud stop wasting his time and money looking for votes in SW. Ibo are solidly behind JEGA. Go to the news stands and hear what they are saying abt JEGA. 10millions of IBB cant defeat JEGA in 2011 election.

metalGo0g:

Who are you to speak for Ndigbo? . . . .

Hate to admit it but[b] it's truth as far as the average Igbo civilian is concerned.[/b]
