I don't think that we Igbos should be boasting. We have to admit that we need the Presidency even if it is hard to admit. Hiding behind Atiku or any other northerner to get into Aso rock while saying something different won't help our agenda. Those northerners are quite smart. Let's just be open and tell them we need them to get power instead of unnecessary boasts.

Hehehehehe grin grin grin

This is another one of them that thinks Ndigbo are wired like them and stupidly obsess about Nigerian presidency day and night!

Dude, believe whatever you wanna believe! smiley

What do you mean? Any one who thinks Igbo needs the presidency is not Igbo? Do you think the decay in the east can be rectified without Igbo presidency?

Kaduna State Governor, Nasir el-Rufai, says although he believes the South should produce the next President, the people of the South-East must note that they cannot get the Presidential seat by threatening others with secession.

El-Rufai further stated that politics has to do with negotiations and convincing others why they should vote for you.

He, therefore, stated that the Igbo would need to adopt this approach if they want their son to succeed the current President.

The governor said this during a webinar organised by the Africa Leadership Group. The event which was tagged: ‘Developing a Viable Nation 2’ was hosted by Pastor of Trinity House church Ituah Ighodalo.

Responding to a question on why the South-East is being denied the Presidency, el-Rufai responded, “I don’t think anyone has stopped the South-East from going for the Presidency. But you see, you cannot get the Presidency of Nigeria by threats or by shouting victimhood. This is a political process and you have to engage other parts of Nigeria to convince them to support you.

“That is what everyone does. That is what Jonathan did in 2011; that is what Buhari did in 2015 and 2019. That is what every President does. You don’t stay in your corner, abuse everyone in Nigeria and say give me Presidency. It is not going to happen.”

He noted that no region in Nigeria can attain the Presidency without the support of others.

The governor advised those who want to be President to get on the road and convince people that you mean well for them.

He, however, explained that the All Progressives Congress is weak in the South-East which may not favour the region.

El-Rufai added, “Presidency is not by allocation. It is the result of a political process. You join a political party, your party negotiates with other parts of the country and it happens. That is how it is done. And you cannot get it by sitting down or threatening secession. It won’t work.

“I think the South-East is going about it the wrong way because if you look at the APC for instance, we do not have many footprints in the South-East.”

I do not agree with ElRufai in many things, but this is exactly what I wrote some days ago. Ibo will achieve nothing bullying others. Rather, they should start negotiating.

Now they want to be president under APC.. the "ewedu muslim" party as they say, formed by Yorubas and North. Kolewerk

First of all, let me say to the Little Finger in Kaduna, Nasarawa El Rufian, who the f**k are you to dictate who becomes the PRESIDIOT of ZOOGERIA? We, in the Southeast don't give a f**k about your presidency. You can stick in your damn ass. Who wants to inhabit the same space as you freaking M0R0N? You and your PRESIDIOT can go to HELL and BURN to ASHES for all we care.

Northerners have been shittn their pants lately because of the calls of secession anything to distract or buy time. One thing that is clear is that this contraption is not working and the Igbo's and Yoruba's are trying to work out a formation to have a country of their own, the Northerners should wake up to these realities and plan, these young folks are radicals and you cant dough them like 1960's.

El-Rufari was blabbing many years ago like he was the next best thing to get into politics because back then he had unfettered access to spend Abuja's budget unhinged and that Nigeria had it good economically then. Now he is the Governor of state and one would think he would be able to replicate what he did in Abuja then but his tenure as a two time Gov was an utter mess. Did he suddenly run out of luck?
Re: You Won’t Get Presidency By Threatening Secession, El-rufai Clears Igbo by IPIGSRMUMU: 8:23pm On May 07, 2021
This man just spoke the truth and nothing but the truth. The problem is that some people don't like o hear the truth, they live on denials and lies.

Honestly this is the guy that Nigeria needs as a leader. Fearless and honest. Not like other politicians that will just dance around the topic.
Most politicians are scared of losing election hence they will simply say what they think people want to hear. This guy doesn't give a Flying fvck about elections. he speaks his mind.

There's nothing like suffering here. He responded to a question and that answer makes perfect sense.

The problem is that many Igbos seem to have lost interest in Nigeria. In truth, there's nothing appealing about Nigeria's presidency.

Just restructure the country or balkanize it so that people can manage their units the way they want to.

After your Buhari has led Nigeria under the pit. Nigeria has scattered.

Parasites must go to their Islamic Sharia Republic in the 12 northern sharia states which the political and religious leaders of the sharia states drew its boundaries when they adopted unconstitutional Islamic Sharia criminal laws between 1999-2001.
