Edwin Clark fails to understand reason on what influenced Kalu’s decision to withdraw from the primaries, in order to support Ahmed Lawan’s ambition.


Kalu argued that a particular region can’t argue the Presidency to come South on the alter of equity and justice, only for that same region to deny the true region in the South which deserves equity and justice.


The SW can’t have Presidency, VP, and Presidency again whereas the North East hasn’t had Presidency.


I think Kalu is being a Statesman for supporting the North East instead of 1 zone to have Presidency twice and VP like they own Nigeria.

Height of selfishness
He can't sacrifice his political interests for the interests of his region, South East.. One of the many reasons Northern Nigeria will continue to be ahead of Southern Nigeria, in politics - a Northerner can drop his personal interests for the interests of the North

Chief Clark with due respect sir where were you when Amaechi set the stage for Gej to be disgraced out of power? Sir you talk about sanctioning Kalu did you make such call against Amaechi?

Sir please mind your business face SS matter or face Amaechi that betrayed Gej, the SS and the pdp first. Thanks.

Oga,
He is just a coward simple as ABC. Most Nigerian president comes mainly from the north west and no one cry about that. Sheu Shagari, Muritala, Yaradua and now Buhari. You guys expect APC to give you ticket despite the hatred you have shown towards anything APC. Where is that done anywhere in the world?? Did Rocha not contest against Buhari in the primary in 2015 despite the fact that it was zone to the north? You guys cry about almost everything and play the victim cards all the time. If you understand politics you will see politicians are only crying for their own selfish interest and do not care about any fucking zones. Saraki and Atiku were happy for zoning in 2019 and suddenly they do not care anymore what has changed? Nothing but interest. You guys should go struggle the ticket out in your beloved PDP and stop crying about everything. You can't blackmail people into power wailing and all those bullshit will not help. Tinubu was once for restructuring and now the idiot kept mute and never talk about it again because the people he believe will vote for him do not want it. What does that tell you he cares about nothing but his foolish ambition and so all other fools parading as politicians.

Kalu with his bony chances has belter chances than Lawan

The reality is that Eboes lie to themselves What was the reason for Zik ganging up against Awo or not voting Abiola

The simple truth is deep down they know they are inferior and they are full of envy

They concoct a story to justify their hate each time but we pass them in every way.


How can OUK in a rational mindset imagine that APC will give him or any other Eboe the ticket

It was better for him to just shut up


These people forget that their every action will continue to have consequences for them in 2063

What he did is the right thing by support the north east though. Nigeria has 6 geopolitical zones 3 has ruled 3 hasn’t ruled. Instead of power to go to people that has ruled already for 8 years as president and another 8 years as vp I prefer it going to the people that hasn’t ruled whether north or east as far as it has counted that they have ruled their turn

Re: 2023: Orji Kalu Betrayed Igbo Cause - Edwin Clark by VPN11(m): 1:37am On May 12, 2022
Any indigenous Nigerian that have been turbaned is already a sale out ;[/b]They are the slave catchers;the warrant chiefs;the Fulani rubber stamps.
When [b]Uthman Dan Fodio started Jihad (1804-1809
) to conquer the Hausa States in Northern Nigeria and parts of Cameroon, his excuse was that he wanted to establish a pure form of Islam. That was a lie. He wanted to conquer the people, [/b]take over their land, and impose Fulani Emirs on them as their rulers.

It was a geopolitical [b]land grab [/b]shrouded in religious garb to deceive the unwary who were about [b]to be enslaved
. He succeeded. He conquered the Hausa States one state at a time, took their land and resources, and imposed Fulani Emirs, usually his relatives to rule with iron fist all the Hausa States. He named this area Sokoto Caliphate.

His relatives who he made Emirs and village heads [/b]exercised absolute authority and control over the millions of Hausa people who before then had their independent governments. Those Emirs were dictators who exercised the power of life and death over the millions of Hausa people over whom they ruled. The Emirs seized all Hausa land, decreed that the land belonged to the Emirs and village heads who portioned them out to individual farmers, and demanded one third to half of the harvest the farmers gathered at harvest time. They also imposed other forms of taxes on the Hausa people who they called “[b]talakawas” (commoners), distinct from the Fulani rulers who were the “aristocrats” (born to rule), a situation they justified using the medieval philosophy of “divine right of kings.” The Emirs did not only control the land of the Hausas, they exercised absolute control over anything and everything in their emirate. If the Emir took fancy to a commoner’s wife he simply asked that the wife be transferred to him; if he fancied a man’s daughter he ordered that the daughter be sent to him as a wife. If he liked any property belonging to a talakawa he simply ordered that it be transferred to him. These were orders that were carried out without question. If the Emir was displeased with the way a man reacted or behaved when the Emir took his wife, the Emir would order the man killed and it was done – no questions asked. The Emir shut down public highways and opened them at his pleasure. This is how the Hausa states lost their freedom and became a servile people ruled by a handful of despotic Fulani dictators called Emirs.


Consider the following statements by Hausa Fulani leaders over the years:

Ahmadu Bello: “The new nation called Nigeria should be an estate of our great–grandfather, Uthman Dan Fodio. We must ruthlessly prevent a change of power. We use the minorities of the North as willing tools and the South as a conquered territory and never allow them to rule over us, and never allow them to have control over their future.” This statement was allegedly made by Sir Ahmadu Bello, the Sarduana of Sokoto, Leader of the NPC and Premier of Northern Nigeria, (Parrot Newspaper, 12th Oct. 1960; republished on November 13, 2002, by the Tribune Newspaper, Ibadan.)



Earlier in 1947, Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa who later became the prime minister of Nigeria, in an address to his Northern colleagues on the floor of the Northern House of Assembly, said the following: “We do not want our Southern neighbours to interfere in our development. We have never associated ourselves with the activities of these people. We do not know them, we do not recognize them, and we share no responsibility in their actions. We shall demand our rights when the time is ripe. If the British quitted Nigeria now at this stage, the Northern people would continue their interrupted conquest to the sea”.



Again in 1948, Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa at the Legislative Council meeting stated as follows: “Since 1914 the British Government has been trying to make Nigeria into one country, but the Nigerian people themselves are historically different in their backgrounds, in their religious beliefs and customs and do not show themselves any sign of willingness to unite... Nigerian unity is only a British intention for the country.”



In 1957, Sir Ahmadu Bello, the Sarduana of Sokoto and Premier of the North, restated the intention of the Hausa Fulani to conquer the south militarily and to Islamize them when he said the following: “We, the people of the north will continue our stated intention to conquer the south and to dip the Koran in the Atlantic ocean after the British leave our shores.”



In 1961, in a television interview with the BBC, Sir Ahmadu Bello, Premier of Northern Nigeria, when asked about his “northernization policy” by a White British journalist, and whether it will be a temporary or permanent feature stated as follows: “In actual fact the policy is, a northerner first. If you cannot get a northerner then you get an expatriate like yourself on contract. If we cannot get that then we will employ another Nigerian from the south on contract too. This is going to be a permanent policy as far as I foresee”. You can actually watch this interview on YouTube.



The West African Pilot of December 20, 1964 reported that Mallam Bala Garuba had proclaimed: “The conquest to the sea is now in sight. When our God-sent Ahmadu Bello said some years ago that our conquest will reach the sea shores of Nigeria some idiots in the South were doubting its possibility. Today have we not reached the sea? Lagos is reached. It remains Port Harcourt. It must be conquered and taken.”



In 1966 after orchestrating and participating in the slaughter of 100,000 Igbo and other Easterners all over Northern Nigeria and anointing himself Head of State and Supreme Commander of Nigeria, Yakubu Gowon in his first radio address to the country actually stated as follows: “Taking everything into consideration, the basis of unity (in Nigeria ) is not there.”

Biafrans, Westerners, and peoples of the Middle Belt, you really don’t have many choices. Separate from Nigeria now or die as slaves in it. It does not matter whether you are rich or poor, bishop or evangelist, male or female, old or young. The same fate awaits you. Demand a referendum now so that those who want out of Nigeria can leave and those who love Nigeria can stay. Stop talking about restructuring Nigeria. It is fool’s gold. If restructuring Nigeria back to the regions would be so great, would stop the Hausa Fulani scheme to conquer and Islamize Southern Nigeria, please explain to us why the Hausa Fulani Federal Government of Nigeria in 1960 declared war on the Tiv civilian population for supporting the United Middle Belt Congress; killed so many Igbo in Northern Nigeria in 1945, and 53; killed thousands of people all over Western Nigeria in 1965 in their effort to take over the government of Western Nigeria; slaughtered one hundred thousand Igbo and other Easterners in the 1966 pogrom; declared genocidal war on Biafra (1967-70) and starved to death more than three million babies, children, pregnant women, old men and old women; completely destroyed the town of Odi killing more than four thousand innocent civilians in the process. Why did the Hausa Fulani commit all these atrocities even as they are in full control of the resources of the South? Ask yourself, why? Stop talking about creation of states, it is absolute tomfoolery. Stop talking about percentages of revenue to be allocated to your states. It is totally insane. Your private property is either yours or it is not. You make the call. Stop talking about the cattle that Hausa Fulani sell to you. That is childish in this age of globalization and free trade. You do not need the cattle that the Fulani mercenaries masquerading as herdsmen bring down south. The United States, Argentina, and Brazil can supply several times over and cheaply too all the beef that your people will ever need; ask South Korea, Japan and China. You can equally buy from friendly countries in West Africa pending the time you develop your own ranches. The same thing applies to any other item that seems attractive to you and your friends. Stop talking about small land area and being land locked. Have you ever heard of or been to Switzerland, Liechtenstein, and Luxembourg? All of them are landlocked. They have about the highest GDP per capita in Europe and their standard of living is among the highest in the world. As for land area, ask South Korea and Japan what their populations are and look at their land areas. They rank among the most densely populated, and most technologically advanced and wealthy countries in the world. Besides your sons and daughters are all over the world distinguishing themselves in all fields of human endeavor and making enormous and outstanding contributions to humanity. Many of them are also getting rich using their prodigious talent and demonstrable skills. Southerners especially Biafrans please stop talking about these silly stuff and embrace the global world with your talents and God-given abilities. You have several alternatives. What do you really need the Hausa Fulani for anyway? Nothing, really nothing.

Seek, and demand your separate identities, insist on your freedom, and insist on your self-determination especially through a referendum. Stop dithering. Your independence will enable you begin to live like human beings while leaving a legacy of freedom, liberty, and hope for your children, your children’s children and generations coming after you. May God guide you to do the right thing and liberate your people!
