Accord party candidate as the speaker of the house when apc has over 200 reps elect

Danwakae:



EVERY ZONE MUST ALWAYS BE AT THE RECIEVING END.....I don't know ur region but.


During the reign of PDP, The southwest did not contributed anything to their party even when OBJ was stge president but yet, they always zone one of the top 4 to the zone.....I'm a proud NORTHERNER ,...If the southeast are not given any position in this dispensation, the gains the APC recorded in the 2019 election in the zone compared to that of 2015, will surely decline in 2023, and that would really affect the chances of a southwest candidate in 2023 should the APC cede the ticket to the zone.


Let us be fair to ourselves, OBJ and GEJ are both southerners, i.e SouthWest and SouthSouth, it is only the SouthEast that has not been given the previlege,

Also in the North,


Late Yar'dua and Baba Buhari are both NorthWest and even Kastina to be precise, as such, NorthEast and NorthCentral have not been given the previlege to rule , if our politicians want give a deaf ears to these issues because of selfishness, I see a great danger ahead mostly from the NorthEast and NorthCentral



It's a serious issue that most be address generally


The most peaceful and less sentimental election is that between OLUSEGUN OBASANJO and Olufalae....same region, no sentiment and no court issue.


When it is zone , when it is time for SouthWest, all political parties would go to the south west to pick their flag bearer for the president and Nigerians will decide....anything less than this,

Is a time bomb waiting to explode

Because every region must face the marginalization as long as Nigerian selfish politicians is concern...and it may explode when u try to marginalised the populated northern Nigeria



Sip it for the future.

Danwakae:



You seems not to get my point right.

The APC made alot of gains in the SouthEast in 2019. In 2015 baba Buhari didn't get 25% in any of the SouthEastern states, but in 2019 he does apart from only one state which is anambra. Forget about Majority leaders, Lawan and Gbaja are competent hands, but for the case of Gbaja, his zone already has the VP, as such is there no other competent hand from the NC or SE in the APC ?, The report that they have endorsed an Accord part person, it's a political stunt, there competent hands withing the APC....


You may not understand where I am coming from, but as a barracks brought up, who understand the root cause on the issue of boko Haram and Niger Delta militants, I won't SUPPORTS the APC stand even if it has no effect today, tomorrow people would make refence to it and it would be on record and we don't know what it may lead to.


In 2015, the APC said there was no member from the SouthEast, but because of the gains in 2019 election, there are members in both chambers, what is now the excuse ??, Don't forget that 9ja politicians are selfish, as we speak, the DSP is being zoned to the SouthSouth where the APC have just two senators, Oshobaba's boy Sen. Alimekhena(Edo) and Sen. OmoAgege(Delta) and with the Gbaja/Wase ticket in the green chamber, the SouthEast seems not to be part of the country.


My zone , Northwest gave the APC highest number of votes followed by Northeast and Northcentral, but yet , we r not fighting for any position because we get the presidency already and if we decide to do so , like the post of deputy , we can get it , but that would be selfishness.....My piont is that we should not eat today and forget tomorrow,


We need general zoning formular to check out selfish politicians including states governors seat, else the BIG PROBLEM AHEAD, NIGERIA CANNOT I REPEAT NIGERIA CANNOT SURVIVE IT....

The problem has already started in the force , many SEstern and Swwstern generals were denied their seniority right...the New IGP was a far far junior in the Police ranking.


The earlier with zone everything in Nigeria with respect to religion the better for us to live peacefully, but if we keep decieving ourselves in the name of merit and that we r one, there would be great danger waiting for us.


When Baba Buhari lost against his own regional brother Late Umar Yar'dua(may his soul rest in peace) , he didn't go to court , but when he lost against OBJ and GEJ he went to court , and after the elections many innocents southern Nigerians died in the north or what they know nothing about. When Olufalae lost against OBJ even if he was the preferred choice of the southwest , he didn't go to court because they r brothers, I pray u get my point, Because with what I am seeing in the barracks, among our politicians and the hatred amongs Nigerian varouis ethnic group, there danger ahead if we are not truthful and fair to ourselves...

Kennydoc:


You are the confused person here.
The person I quoted said God will not forgive Lugard for letting other good tribes share a country with hateful Igbos, yet when Nnamdi Kanu was shouting about referendum, Nigerian government jailed him, and even after releasing him, they still went after him and many other Igbos that had bought into his mindset.
If all other tribes are good and Igbos are the hateful ones, why can't the rest of the country join together and force the hateful Igbos out? Why must you share a country with the same people you hate?

olas24u:

Igbos are very closed people and not aligning with other enthnic groups to strategize and win.

Kennydoc:


The only set of Nigerians that have a relatively similar mentality with Igbos are the Ibibios, Efiks, Annangs, Ikwerre, Ijaw etc, and these are the people of the defunct Eastern region of Nigeria. They are the people that were part of the Biafran war, and are today found in Cross River, Akwa Ibom, Rivers and Bayelsa states. These are the only people Igbos can completely align with. As a matter of fact, Igbos have been relating closely with these same people for centuries before the British came to colonise Nigeria.
However, it will be difficult in this day and age for those same tribes to join Igbos in a common struggle of nationhood, cos many of them can easily sense the domineering spirit of the Igbos. Igbos love to conquer territories and are usually not afraid to upset the existing status quo.
If not for the civil war and the suppression of Igbos that followed, Igbos would have been the leading Nigerians in most sectors today, not necessarily by nepotism but by merit.

Talking about Nigerian political alliance, you guys shouldn't try to rewrite history simply because Yorubas aligned with the North under APC and it worked for them. Since independence, 2015 was the very first time Yorubas had an effective and successful alliance with the North that yielded fruits for them. The SE and SS have been the southern side aligning with the North in the first, second and at the beginning of the fourth republic.

schoolboij:
Danwakae you are talking Bullocks. Apart from 1999, PDP has always won the SW. Gej won 5 states in 2011 and got 47% in 2015. Atiku got 43% in 2019 so I don't know where you got your false assertion from.

Too many lies in your comments. FYI, buhari went to court against Yar'adua. Stop the misinformation.

The south east is only jealous of south west nothing else. They didn't have any problem in 2011 and 2015 when both the speaker and the SP both came from the north. They are only shouting now because SW is favoured for the position. They wouldn't have had any problem if it was zoned to the north. Their politics is only based on hatred for Yoruba.

klas:




The history of the 4th republic is too recent for you to attempt to distort it.

Regarding PDP electoral fortune in the south west, where did you get your figures? Apart from Obj first term at the inception of the 4th republic, which other presidential elections did PDP lose materially in SW?

Obj won SW in 2003, Yaradua defeated Atiku in 2007, GEJ defeated Ribadu in 2011. In 2015, GEJ got 47% even with his negative attitude to SW. and 2019, the PDP presidential candidates got over 40% and even won in 2 states out of 6. In that 2019, SW gave Atiku more votes than south east in terms of numbers.

On court cases, contrary to your assertion, Falae went to court against Obasanjo in 1999 and Buhari surely went to court against Yaradua in 2007. It was during that case that his running mate - Edwin Ume-Ezeoke abandoned him in court to accept ‘government of national unity’ offer from Yaradua. It was that frustration that made Buhari pulled out of ANPP to form CPC that later merge with ACN to become APC

LEAVE KE wasn't it JUST few weeks ago that all we heard was "atikulator","we are atikulating"bla bla bla! CONFUSED PPL!

Danwakae:



There are some lacuna in your Memory.

SouthWest in most times has never been a zone for any party even when they have OBJ as president except for 2003, when Baba Tinubu AD had to endorsed OBJ's PDP against Baba Buhari ANPP and as such he lost Ogun, Ondo, to the PDP at the gov polls, In 2007, ATIKU ACN got 25 % in most states even if the PDP won and with that u can't say the SouthWest is loyal to the PDP, even now you cant say it's loyal to the APC, for the days of the PDP results from SouthEast and NorthCentral had always given the PDP upper hand, even when OBJs re-election was threatened , it was the South East that gave PDP block votes. ANPP won Osun state and got 25% in Osun and Oyo...The SouthWest has never been completely loyal to any party when compared to NorthWest and SouthEast,

If not for NorthWest, NorthEast and NorthCentral, Baba couldn't have won the 2019 election, but yet u people from the SouthWest will always been on social media making noise while we r mobilising our people to go and vote in the north.

When we point out the truth , u call anybody that is not a YORUBA on Nairaland an IGBO. The results are there online go and check it...

I repeat Baba BUHARI did not go to court against Late YAR'DUA , but went to court against OBJ and GEJ, get your fact right, just like Olufalae didn't go to court against his brother OBJ.

In 2011, Sen. Mark is from NorthCentral and Hon. Dimeji Bankole from Southwest was the Speaker and the SouthEast via present Imo gov. was the Deputy speaker, the fact that your own brother, Baba Tinubu sold your slot to the NorthWest who already had theVP,,(Sambo) to Hon. Tambuwa against ur own MULIKAT AKANDE is no body's fault, blame Baba Tinubu for that...the PDP had alsways shared everything to all region.

Infact if u people continue like this , u will be shocked in 2023, because we delivered baba Buhari in the North because of the love we have for him, and those Govs. who were misbehaving, even with the endorsement of Baba Buhari they lost their election. That is to say if u people think Baba Buhari will raise a SouthWest candidate hand for APC in order for we NORTHERNERS to vote for, Then the PDP will shock u people they r already penetrating...

We shall see.

Cherrybae:
The SE cannot reap where they didn't sow. They should wait for PDP to make them speaker.

The SE play politics of hate, bittersweet, sentiment, Ethnicity and religion.

God will not forgive Lord Lugard for making other good tribes to be in same country with this hateful people.

Never again

sharpsecret:
u are confused,look at the crap u wrote,first u claimed igbos were relating closely with these tribes u mentioned even b4 the british came to colonize us,and then u claimed igbos like to conquer territories,fulani conquered sokoto,kwara amongst others,name one tribe igbos ever conquered,if igbos dint conquer dem then wat makes u tink igbos wil want to conquer them now,u said the only times yoruba's align wit fulani is 2015,did awolowo not align wit the north to fight igbos in 1967,.wat did yoruba's say when aguiyi ironsi was killed,they kept quiet and quietness in the face of evil is same as being an accomplice,yoruba's has been the greatest asslicker in the fulani's

TGM2015:
These SE people always like to overdo things. Being fair in politics is about numbers and what you bring to the table, hence the saying, "the minority will have their say and majority will have their way".
SE should accept their "say lot" in APC and maintain their "way lot" in PDP.

olas24u:
Igbos will never support Yorubas!

mrvitalis:


Did u ever hear pdp sideline any region based on vote

TGM2015:

PDP has never been in this Situation, so we can't compare.

mrvitalis:

1999
Pdp has always lost north west

TGM2015:

And NW was given which position in NASS leadership?

mrvitalis:

Speaker 1999 till 2007 ...2011 to 2015

TGM2015:

Okay. Thank you.

mrvitalis:

So u see

TGM2015:

First, we need to recognize the house rule of becoming a Speaker. The aspirant must be a ranking member, at least. Secondly, it is logical that a party supports his own member to get the Speakership.
Now, please mention any APC members from SE that is a ranking member? Also, do you think it fair and right to denied a ranking and loyal members that has been Majority Leader the Speakership. You see, in politics there are things that are right and fair beyond federal character. Moreover, is it not the same SS and SE senators and HoRs that thought it right to give both Speakership and Senate President to the North? So it is right to have Northern as the President, Senate President and Speaker when PDP want the take governance control from APC? The South East were being treated nice then àbí? Or may be the SE sacrifice their right in the interest of national unity and want to pick it up now?
Please, there is a word called politics, the only thing that is right and fair is that thing that is acceptable by the majority.
If the majority see it your way, then it is right and fair. Politics and governance are different things, our constitution recognised federal character for government but no law regulate what is fair and right in politics except the "law of the majority".

TGM2015:
Okay

mrvitalis:

What else ?

TGM2015:
You have your answer up there.

mrvitalis:
we all saw APC as an alternative to PDP ....in 2007 to 2011 only deputy speaker was zoned to the south east ...we didn't complain u know why because no one made us feel less nigerian

Call PDP all the names u want but never did they divide nigeria as much as APC ...never did pdp neglect a region based on the fact they didint get votes there

Thats y its a national party


Finally the truth is the truth APC has absolutely no excuse not to give the south east a sense of belonging

But if they chose not to its there luck ....they would lose the fees igbos like me who support them ...u never know tomorrow u know
