That is the problem with the Igbos, they hate each other with passion. Even though I dislike this Umahi's move but his own fellow tribesmen in APC are already laying dangerous obstacles for him in APC.
Meanwhile, the other tribe they always tackle are United in their quest. No other Yoruba man or woman has shown real interest in the presidency since when it was rumoured that Tinubu will contest but that wont happen in Igbo land because even lizards and rats will rise up to contest the moment any party indicates that it will zone the presidency to the South east.

I have never seen a people so dis-United like this. They always use other tribes to unite like they did in Oyigbo, Rivers state recently. Go to the North or West it's same story but yet they have deepest hatred amongst themselves.

Tufiakwa Unu!!


What is Fayemi doing aligning with El Rufai?

What do you think Osibanjo is secretly doing?

What of recently where Rauf Aregbesola decided to indirectly take over the structure in Lagos?

Stop hating the Igbos and purge yourself of Igbophobia.

Your ancestors who towed this path did not end well, ask Awolowo and Abiola.

say what you know.
Umahi's predecessor never supported him yet he won
Even with the defection, it will be a herculean task to take Ebonyi away from PDP.
Watch how Ebonyi north will capitalize on this move
Story

Ebonyi Guber has always banked on federal might to win elections. Since 1999 all guber elections has been retained by PDP due to Abuja federal might of PDP. In 2015 might was with PDP and Elechi in Labour party, so Umahi won. In 2019 Dave understood this and had a cordial relationship with federal might at Buhari and won. 2023 the sitting governor will be APC and sitting president APC so Ebonyi will also go to APC. Best PDP can do is win a pocket state house of assembly seats.

i really admire Umahi work but i keep wondering how come all nigerian politician are the same, if feel this selfishness and greed most be in our black DNA. A governor doing so well and praised by people for his work wil see a party that have crumble our economy, made over 5million people jobless, put our nation in over naira dept and still borowng to pay salaries. Hmmm i wonder

APC is the extension of PDP. No political ideology. The only ideology they have is corruption and looting. Youth will schock them come 2023. Any youth or Nigerian that votes for PDP or APC in 2023 will need a brain reset.

Don't Ebonyians vote? Which federal might are you talking about? The federal might only has influence in their primaries.

Umahi will be so rejected by Igbos in 2023 that he will be like Chime of Enugu. People do not learn. The experiences of Chime, Akpabio and Uduaghan should have made them learn yet they would not. SE/SS is PDP, presidency or no presidency. Vacate and become useless politicalky.

Personally I was a die hrt fan of PDP FOR SE/ SS, but since the Igbos are been killed and called names by SS people I think I will now support APC or any party that will emerge. The igbos have been betrayed so much and the SS we see as brothers hates us more just because we can huzzle buy land build houses it becomes a problem, I bought a land from Ikwerre man last yr. he told we are one after I paid I meet his son the guy told me he hate Igbo man and I find it difficult to be with the ppl who don’t like me. In my area I was present during the end sars Rumukoroshi and okada boys from Akwa-Ibom went to Oilmill loot Hausa boys shops and kill some of them later the governor said it was igbos and in return Hausa boys loots and burn down Igbo ppl shop. What is our offense? Y this hatred? I have been suffering since I left school, I have not done any government job or contract how come I am the problem of SS?

Don't generalize over bearing attitude of one man,to be the behaviour of the entire tribe, umahi has time to consult Buhari on his defection, but never make out time to inform the APC leaders in south east , you guy's are quick to criticise igbos on the ambition of one man.every APC member should stand down because umahi has defected to the party abi? How most of you reason at times.

So APC has promised him that presidency will be zoned to south east? If he believes that then he is a fool

There is no zoning in APC. All candidates , all over Nigeria have to come out and contest, that is democracy.

Umahi has always been in bed with the APC since time immemorial. No doubt that he has transformed Abakaliki and not necessarily Ebonyi state, but this move I’ll say is political suicide.
APC would never give him the presidential ticket.

He doesn’t have the political clout talkless of a strong cabal backing him.
This is a big fat lie. So the fly over in Ezzamgbo is located in Abakaliki town?

The fly over in Abaomege community is in Abakaliki? The concrete road from Ngbo High court to Umuogudu Akpu is in Abakaliki town?


The new Ebonyi State University College of Medicine Campus situated in Uburu and built from scratch to finish by him, to provide rural health access to villagers in Ebonyi South, is located in Abakaliki.

YOU DON'T KNOW EBONYI WELL.

Five years sef small. Any Igbo man that wants presidency must be preparing for at least 10 years. If he is heading to APC to be President, he should wait till 2039. After Yoruba rule 8 years, that is 2031, then Hausa man for another 8 years, that is 2039, then maybe them go remember am for 2039
yoruba no dey smell APC ticket in 2023.

Joining APC or PDP will not change anything till the rest of the country minds changed.
The issue is fundamental.

I remember when Obama was campaigning to become the US president this slogan was "Change" change have come to America, under that change he was convincing especially the white Americans the need to accept a Black president. And Americans people listened. Behold, Obama became the first black US president in history.

Toady Israel, Jordan, UAE are friend again.
Who will believe that?

If Nigeria decides to change its mindset thing will work out well.

Until then.

Ebonyi can never win PDP governorship if he defects. At best PDP will win about 6 or 7 state house of assembly positions. One or two house of Reps but that will be all. Ebonyi politics is always heavily influenced by the sitting governor.
Who made umahi governor, it was anyim and not elechi his predecessor, I don't think you know the state and its politics well.
