Western Zombies won't like this.. Na only Tinubu supposed get alliance with North.

Even their Osinbajo don dey cast.... Nigerians are now seeing his real color.

No northern group can support Igbo man according to them.

Their eyes will clear by 2023.

This one thinks they will give him power because he’s collecting aboki titles.

We want power in the southeast but not through characters like Orji Uzor Kalu, Rochas Okorocha or Hope Uzodinjo.

We want Umahi or Ogbonnaya Onu.

Or Amaechi, in case they want a coalition of SE/SS + North against the Waste

I’m ready to vote APC if they give their ticket to Igboman or Amaechi.

OUK is the darling of the North, goes back to his days as an IBB loyalist.

Good one

Guy don't die on top of Yoruba matter because average Yoruba person no give fvk about you igbo...In 1960 that's how Nnamdi Azikiwe having romance with north just to silent papa Awolowo but despite his efforts Awolowo was still able to garner enough voters to be Nigeria president if not because of corruption that evolved papa would have emerged Nigeria president then. Meanwhile the failure of Awolowo to lead Nigeria then we are still suffer it till today.

And for your information let kalu continue buying titles across the River niger of course they will continue to give him as long as not free but one thing I know his case will not be different from Alex Ekwume.
