Is Hagher a cartoonist?

I can’t speak for the South East. They deserve to be President of Nigeria and should be president when they are prepared to negotiate with others.

“When they are ready to organise their leaders to act with dignity and not with mercenary spirit. When they can rein in their hubris and discipline their youth, then, they can negotiate with other power centers.

“But when you look at things at the moment, the country is run by the Northwest, and Northeast to the exclusion of the North Central Nigerian Middle-Belters.

“The people of South-East are exceptional, but they have brought unspeakable pain to the rest of Nigeria. They are the image of Nigeria the world sees and it is a bad image.

Tolexander:
These aren’t good statements from a statesman

Naajjii:

But that's the truth.

Naajjii:

Yes it has no tribe but Igbo people made it a way of life. A nom

The Southwest and North should keep rotating power jare

It doesn't change anything. After all, there's still no light, few good roads, and we are a terrorist nation.

Let's keep blaming the Igbos as if they are the reason you have no better welfare in this country

Simplyleo:
Every tribe deserves to be a president, the problem is always the "but", so the "but" in the case of igbos is not an issue, is everywhere.

Next pls...

kettykin:
If Nigeria means well, an igbo will be elected the president of Nigeria in 2023.
Anything short of this is satanic, xenophobic and anti people and will be furiously and fiercely resisted

“The people of South-East are exceptional, but they have brought unspeakable pain to the rest of Nigeria. They are the image of Nigeria the world sees and it is a bad image.
“The Igbo problem is not so simplistic as to be solved by fiat by the desire for a Nigerian president of Igbo descent. It is a serious problem of a socially unhinged society that needs to be reconstructed and re-humanised.

what image is this mischevious so called prof talking of?

is it terrorism? boko Haram and killer herdsmen are not powered by Igbos.

corruption? championed by the North and a general malaise.

illiteracy and polio? they are not Igbo specialty.

is it yahoo yahoo? a general southern Nigeria disease.

drug trafficking? maybe Igbos dominate this internationally but not internally.

bad governance? not Igbos.

Hiv/Aids? the profs state is even worse here than the Igbos

this man should concentrate on his middle belt region getting the presidency without disparaging the great Igbo tribe. He want to correct the Igbos and set terms as if the presidency is his to give. who is he by the way? Has he addressed and corrected all the societal ills and wrongs in his native Benue?

The parable of the speck and plank in the eye comes to mind here.
