Funtua urges Igbo to belong and embrace everybody like Moshood Abiola. Isa Funtua urges Igbo to belong and embrace everybody like Moshood Abiola. (The Nigerian Voice) Mallam Isa Funtua, Publisher of Democrat Newspaper and President Muhammadu Buhari’s confidant has advised politicians in the south-east to play inclusive politics to produce the president in 2023. Funtua said the clamour by the region to get presidency may not be realized if they do not belong. The life patron of the Newspapers Proprietors Association of Nigerian (NPAN) said this on Saturday, January 4, 2019, when he appeared on a program, The Morning Show on Arise Television. “If the Ibo wants to be president, then they must belong. If you don’t belong, then you can’t be the president. That is the issue and we have seen it with MKO Abiola of blessed memory. He went out of his way, he cultivated people,” he said. Citing an example of inclusive politics, Funtua said the presumed winner of the 1993 presidential election, Moshood Abiola defeated Bashir Tofa in Kano because “he embraced everybody.” He said, “You’re talking of politics, which is an issue of votes. My very good friend of blessed memory, MKO Abiola defeated Bashir Tofa in Kano. Was MKO Abiola from Kano? But he defeated Bashir in his own town Kano. Why? Because the man played politics, he embraced everybody. “If you send him an invitation for anything, if he is not there, his representative will be there and he will play his part. You cannot sit down and say because you’re an Ibo man, there is no fairness. “With due respect to the Igbo, they fail to understand that when the south-west chose to remain on their own as opposition, they did not go near the power. To a large extent, the north in terms of religion and culture are closer to the south-west than to the south-east. When Ekwueme contested (for the PDP ticket), Chief Olusegun Obasanjo defeated him. “I know Nigerian politics, you chose your candidate who will be able to bring votes to you to win election, not on regional basis, not on tribal basis. Is he going to be the president of the North, East, South-west, South-south or whatever? “If the Ibo wants to be president, then they must belong. If you don’t belong, then you can’t be the president.” Funtua also accused the media of promoting the clamour for the Igbo presidency.

Instead of focusing on the aspirant’s tribe, religion or ethnicity, why not focus on the aspirant’s integrity, pedigree, competence and drive? Anyways, kindly spare 3 minutes to respond to this mini-survey. It’s about our attempt to solve a general but important problem in Nigeria. Thanks. https://forms.gle/ayUVR9JMXWystFDU9 1 Like |

Esseite:igbos in Apc re nothing compare to Igbo in pdp. Igbo have little or no presence in Apc since it's formation since 2014. How do u explain ur participation in a political party when the party cant boast of single governor in ur region. Apc lawmakers in South East region is the lowest for the party. |

donbachi: Fact of the matter is you Igbo haters will come up with any excuse in the book to ensure a Igbo does not become president! All these 'excuses' and 'reasons' you're giving is just playing to the gallery! The way you all agreed to make a Yoruba president in 1999 is the way you're all expected to make a Igbo president in 2023! The fact you may hate Igbos is besides the point! If you feel you cannot stomach a Igbo as president then queue up behind the Biafra/IPOB movement for secession! The reasons the man gave that Igbos should 'belong' and 'can Igbos bring the numbers and support' is just a red herring....looking for excuses! Did the Yoruba have 'the numbers' before it was decided a Yoruba should be president in 1999? One can see how devious, dangerous and two-faced these northern Oligarchs and power-brokers are: a Yourba man won a election fair-and-square....you couldn't stomach the fact, and felt you are more powerful and know more than the electorate that voted him into power, you then went ahead to not only annull the election, but throw the poor man in jail for good measure, all culminating in his murder....when you discovered your diabolical actions could sound the death knell to your gravy-train that is 'one Nigeria' you grudgingly agreed among yourselves that a Yoruba has to be the next president to douse tension and anger....of course you had already identified which Yoruba would be president regardless of who the Yoruba themselves wanted, and went ahead to work from answer to question leading to Obasanjo being annointed president in 1999! The only way these people will come together and grudgingly agree a Igbo will be president in 2023 is if their hand is forced to do so like happened in 1999! Any Igbo naive enough that to think they will listen to their argument of 'fairness' and 'interest of justice'....such a Igbo doesn't know the level of hate and mistrust that confronts them! Personally, i hope their greed gets the better of them and they gang-up against the Igbo again and deny them the presidency in 2023.....that's if Nigeria survives that long! This will show these naive Igbo that we have no business being part of the criminal enterprise that is 'one Nigeria'! |

XANDERBOY85: Hatred has beclouded your reasoning. The northerners that voted abiola were not forced. They could have voted Tofa. Babangidas action has nothing to do with the northerners who voted him. A military dictator anywhere in Africa always protect their own interests. Obasanjo was not handed power. He contested against an Igbo man and he won in PDP because AD was a regional party. 2 Likes |
