Idiko1:


MNK has been proven correct yet again. This dingbat called Elijah Ayodele does not think Igbo people are suitable for the presidency of the shithole called Nigeria. However the moronic stiff enjoys the tithe from Igbo people.

Only God knows if this people want Biafra or Presidency, they should state their intentions clearly.

You need sense, when did Yorubas and SS agree or make an Oath of something or you don't know the meaning of betrayal?

When Yorubas voted for Jonathan in 2011, you can't remember abi.

What's this afonja muslim talking.

Okhuadams:
Very hard Truth to take, but very true to argue about . I remember the election of 1999 many igbos came out for presidency, including the first VP Ekweme. None of them step them for each other even when the north suggested it. All Tru 1999 they fought theirselves for senete President seat. Even an Nnewi lady can't just marry any Igbo man outside her town. Unless the guy has loads of cash. The Eboyins are treated as if they are not igbos.

FLASHBACK: I Regret Advising Azikiwe Not To Join Forces With Awolowo – Former Eastern Premier, Michael Okpara Decries Nigeria’s Faulty Federalism
Late Okpara expressed regrets for advising Azikiwe not to join forces with Awolowo.


BY SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORKOCT 06, 2021
An old newspaper published in November 1980, has resurfaced showing former Premier of the Eastern Nigeria Region, late Dr Michael Okpara, saying he regretted the advice he offered the first President of Nigeria, late Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe, not to form an alliance with the former Premier of Western Region, late Chief Obafemi Awolowo.

OBAFEMI AWOLOWO ASKED FOR SECESSION CLAUSE TO BE INCLUDED IN THE CONSTITUTION, THE NORTH SUPPORTED THE MOTION, BUT I IGNORANTLY OPPOSED AND THE BRITISH (HYPOCRITICALLY) SUPPORTED MY ARGUMENT

An Interview granted by Nnamdi Azkiwe in 1975.

Read and learn..

"Nnamdi Azikiwe stated that... When the 1954 constitution conference started, my good friend, Chief Obafemi Awolowo tabled a motion to the effect that in the new constitution, provision should be made that any state which feels like seceding should do so. I was opposed to it and said ‘no’ and said that once we have a federation, we are indivisible and perpetual.

That was when we began to use that expression – ‘The Indivisibility and perpetuity of the federation’ – and that to secede would amount to treason. And so, a debate ensued.

The Secretary of State then was Oliver Littleton, later Lord Chandos and he was very much interested and that was his first time in saying that the people of African descent were people actually debating at a high level.

So a full day was given to Chief Awolowo to make his points. He spoke brilliantly as a lawyer. He made his points why secession should be incorporated in the constitution. He cited the case of the Soviet Union which is a federation, and that secession is written there so that any state in the Soviet Union can secede at will. He also cited the case of Western Australia and eventually he finished his case and was applauded.

Lord Chandos said that on the face of the arguments before him it would be suicidal to incorporate secession in our constitution and that is why we have section 86 in our constitution that if any region or state should secede, then it will be an act of treason

We adjourned. The next day, I had to reply. I availed myself of the opportunity to, well, demolish the arguments of my friend and I cited the case of United States which based its constitution on that of the Swiss Confederation. That is Switzerland. I pointed out a case, I think, that of Texas versus White, where Mr. Salmon Chase, the Chief Justice laid down the principle – he was really an arbiter – that the union was intended to be perpetual and indivisible and that any attempt to divide the union by secession was treasonable.

Also read Why Awolowo did not make West secede

The North (NPC) supported Action Group. The question was then: Should we have secession? "The Colonial Office came to our rescue. YOU KNOW THE USUAL PRINCIPLE OF BRITAIN – ‘ *DIVIDED AND RULE' (laughs) but this time, it was in our favour. So, the colonial office backed us."

Lord Chandos said that on the face of the arguments before him it would be suicidal to incorporate secession in our constitution and that is why we have section 86.... ."

Now I guess you know where the problem comes from!

okeyumez:
True talk. I am an igbo man and i agree with the prophet.
The problem with we igbos is pride, lack of cohesion, disobedience to elders, arrogance, "i too know'', respect for materialism and iberiberism

Sirjamo:
That is not news.


If the PDP can be grateful to them for once, and immediately zone the presidency exclusively to the South East, maybe other parties might follow.


PDP is an ungrateful and greedy party, I wonder why the Igbo are still slaving for it.

Igboid:


You are not okay.

Even 1999 elections that was left for Yorubas, Olu Falae refused to step down for OBJ.

Buhari refused to step down for Yaradua in 2007 and in the PDP primaries of 2011, many Northern candidates refused to step down for Atiku.
Atiku a Fulanis refused to let Buhari have second tenure in 2019, he had to compete against him.

Amaechi and Omehia were not only same Ikwerre people, but cousins. Yet Amaechi refused to submit his mandate to Omehia. He fought him standstill and won him in courts.

Amaechi joined Yorubas and the North to oust a fellow SSner in GEJ from Government.

Yorubas hate and discriminate against the Ijebus. It took the Ascension of Awolowo to reintegrate Ijebus into Yoruba mainstream. Yet the Yoruba stigma against Ijebus remains, as they are accused of being too cunning or stingy with Money.

Common house of rep in 2007, Yorubas couldn't keep it.
Etteh was soon replaced by Bankole.

Awolowo was betrayed and forced to take his life by fellow Yorubas who ratted him out to Fulanis, Jakande was the ring leader.
Abiola was betrayed by fellow Yorubas in NADECO who collected money from Abacha and sold him out.
Yorubaland is sharply divided into Islam and Xtianity , we saw how the issue of Hijab in school played out.


All of you will not face your local problems, but you want to die on top Igbo problem, nah die una dey so.
This was how all of you were waxing lyrical in 2015 after Buhari victory, About how Igbos don't know how to play politics because we rejected a monumental failure called Buhari, now the whole country can see who are better at politics between us and those who imposed Buhari on the country out of hate (Igbophobic) driven politics, whereby GEJ became a villain for not being anti-Igbo.

Jimasun:

1999 election was not left for Yorubas, it was left for Southerners to contest. Igbos contested for it but lots at the primary election.
Please stop trying to rewrite history.

Macsjebs:

Not available but would recommend one with similar scent and notes

Igboid:


It was left for Yorubas when unknown broke OBJ was brought from the prison where he was languishing and installed the PDP flag bearer by the Hausa-Fulani power brokers, against Ekwueme who was part of the founding members of the party and actually put in a lot of work to win party votes all over the country.
OBJ win in 1999 PDP primaries was not his own making, has nothing to do with Yorubas as Yorubas didn't like him.
He was made the party flag bearer by Hausa-Fulani power brokers in the sentiments that A Yoruba president was needed to bury the Abiola history and to reintegrate Yorubas into the country.
This is important, because today Yorubas who were beneficiaries of benevolent politics as OBJ was in no way positioned to win Ekwueme without the powers that be recognizing need for reintegration, are today singing different song.

When OBJ emerged the flag bearer at the detriment of a more educated and more worthy Ekwueme, Ekwueme congratulated him and asked Ndiigbo to support him. Which we did.
But Yorubas still didn't back OBJ and Olu Falae representing AD would not step down for OBJ in the main elections.
So where is the Unity if Olu Falae couldn't step down for OBJ?

Tingotoe:
You can't get a referendum just like that. Nowhere in the world does it work like that. You have to go through the political process or hope to destroy Nigeria by war. Anyone who tells you otherwise is deceiving you

NGpatriot:

.


Who are you fooling ..?

Jimasun:

Ekwueme contested.
He lost primary.
Olu Falae was the choice of Yorubas while Obasanjo was the choice of the North and as usual, the Igbos supporter a northern agenda like they did since 1950s.
