Abeg remind me, how many votes Ojukwu got when he contested for President in 2003. I heard that, Igbo People no gree vote am?

cktheluckyman:

Oga the Yoruba candidate in 1999 was Olu falae and last time I checked he failed woefully!! Obasanjo was a Northern candidate in 1999.He rigged himself to a second term because he was already in power in 2003.

MKO is the only ALLEGED Yoruba candidate to win elections in Nigeria.AlLEGED because the following final results were never officially announced

diplomat058:
There was never a presidential election in Nigeria until the 1979 elections (courtesy of the 1979 presidential republican constitution of Nigeria). What we had before then were parliamentary elections into both chambers of the Federal Legislature. The Governor General Azikiwe was a rep of the British Queen (who was the substantive Head of State) from1959 to 1963 when Nigeria became republican and Azikiwe became President (elected in a joint session of both chambers of the Federal Legislature). An indirect election, there were no nationwide presidential elections

cktheluckyman:

If the SW is contesting then there they are worse off than the North there they are here condemning

seunmsg:


The 1959 election was a parliamentary election and not the presidential we practice today. Victory was determined by the number of legislative seats won and not popular votes. NPC came first based on number of seats won.

Again, you need to also consider that while Western and Eastern regions adopted universal adult suffrage for the election, the northern region adopted limited suffrage whereby women are not allowed to vote. As a result, they had lesser popular votes than the two other regions. In fact, northern women were not allowed to vote until the 1979 general election when Nigeria adopted the presidential system of government.

Yoruba candidates won the presidential elections in 1993, 1999 and 2003. Tell us how many times an Igbo candidate has won a presidential election in the history of Nigeria?

We’ve a good history of electoral success and you have none. That’s why you and your folks are everywhere shouting and begging that Tinubu and Osinbajo should not contest in 2023. Once they are on the ballot, it’s guaranteed victory.

truthstands01:

Is this not hypocrisy pls? You all are shouting power should return to the South. I totally agree but it should be the South East, if not, let North continue. E go do una for eyes nah. Since yiu have the monopoly of only SW winning presidency, let's see how it goes. PDP will Field a northern candidate and I assure you, North like themselves die. E go clear for your eye nah. Why won't South East be allowed to lead Nigeria? Where was Obj before he was picked to run in 1999? Either SE, NE or NC will be President in 2023. SW got Presidency in Obj, SW got 8yrs VP in Osinbajo. Why do yiu think it's justice, equity and fairness for SW to get it again in 2023 when SE has not gotten either President or VP since 1999. Pls tell yourself the truth. If it will not be given to SE, let it remain with the North. That's all.

Before getting to my comment, you must at least pass through 10 foolish commentators.

Imagine what they turned the thread to be.
The message was about southerners stand on producing the presidential candidate, now it has happened as if the said southerners always pick a fight when it's time to outshine.

if this is what you can bring to the table, pls allow the northerners to continue the tyrannical reigns

perambulator:
ofcourse he will say that he is from the south and he knows APC is going to field a southern candidate so he wants to put pressure on PDP to field a southern candidate because he knows PDP cannot win with a southern candidate.
