A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Imo State, Hon. Dennis Adikwuru has commended the ongoing clamour by Igbos, especially those residing outside the South-East for mass registration and collection of Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) preparatory to the 2023 general elections, describing the development as a noble initiative for Ndigbo to wake up from their slumber. Speaking in a statement made available to Sunday Independent at the weekend, Adikwuru said the huge population of Igbos who had been trooping out in Lagos and other parts of the country following the call, stressing that the Igbos had been the most apolitical in terms of participation in the electoral processes leading to the election of leaders at the various governance levels in Nigeria. He said that understandably, the wake-up call had been rekindled by the growing agitation for the occupation of Nigeria’s presidential seat by an Igbo man come 2023.

Adikwuru stated that during the preliminaries leading to the presidential primaries of the two major political parties, APC and PDP, many Igbos of the South East came out en masse to aspire for the presidential ticket of their parties, adding that no less than 10 Igbos showed up for the elusive position in both parties. He noted that one of them, Peter Obi, resigned his membership of PDP and joined Labour Party (LP), which adopted him as its presidential candidate. Adikwuru noted that since Obi’s emergence as Labour Party’s presidential flag bearer, a new wave of aura and euphoria had greeted his (Obi’s) entry into the presidential race with a section of the youths vowing to enthrone the LP flag bearer as Nigeria’s next president. He said: “This sudden exuberance has crept into the APC and PDP with few of their members having divided loyalty between their main parties’ candidates and Labour Party’s Peter Obi, a seemingly confusion and indecision that requires urgent analytical guidance and redirection. “Much as the Igbos legitimately deserve the ascendance to the presidency of our dear country, Nigeria, it is important to posit here that with time and in the course of the presidential campaigns, we shall realise that Peter Obi under Labour Party, cannot muster winning votes for the presidential seat.

“As it is today, Igbos will need to reintegrate into national and mainstream politics in order to route into the presidency of the country. “The APC as the sitting party at the centre of governance has failed to incorporate the Igbos into the presidential office, having fielded Bola Tinubu, a follower of the late Obafemi Awolowo, whose alleged hatred for the Igbo nation knew no bounds. Tinubu, in turn, will pick a Hausa VP, thereby moving to perpetuate the Yoruba/Hausa political hold.” Adikwuru recalled that PDP’s Atiku Abubakar had held that power should move to the South East and as such, he would have supported Ndigbo if PDP had zoned the presidency to South East, adding that his stand was premised on the assumption that both major political parties would anchor their presidential tickets on the South East. “But, the body language and intrigues in APC routed for the South West, while persons like River’s Nyesom Wike, another arch-enemy of Ndigbo, blocked the chances of South-East to produce the presidential candidate of PDP. In the political arena, even the socio, economic and cultural circles, you can only give what you have hold on.” He added: “The Igbo agitation for the presidency is gaining momentum with much sensitisation for our people to obtain their PVCs. While this goes on, there are seen and unforeseen clandestine and inordinate strategic power plays which make or mar the outcome of elections, especially the presidential election. “The euphoria greeting Peter Obi/Labour Party’s social media vibes should be approached with caution because the Igbos have only five states and even if securing bulk votes for Peter Obi, the deciding votes are resident in the North. “We should also as Igbos realise that the Monday and other occasional sit-at-homes have far-reaching negative implications for the Igbo quest for the presidency as other parts of the country will suggest the possibility of IPOB locking up the entire country, thereby running down the nation’s economy. “In the face of these and other unfolding political scenarios, the best option for Igbo reintegration into mainstream politics remains the PDP Atiku Abubakar presidency. “For reasons of real party loyalty and belief in party policy directions, we should, as PDP members, hold faith in PDP and our presidential candidate. “Again, we should not lose sight of the fact that our own principal, Rt Hon Emeka Ihedioha, is very much in the power play circle currently ongoing and he understands what benefits Ndigbo under the present dispensation. “I, therefore, urge all of us, PDP faithful, to remain committed to the decisions and candidature of our great party, PDP. Take it or leave it, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) under Atiku Abubakar as our presidential candidate, is poised and set to launch back to the Presidential Villa come 2023. “There is a need to put a halt to the clapping and applause being rendered to Peter Obi as doing that will not earn the presidency for Ndigbo.”.

Hmmm, wetin you mean

OBIdient4ever

Ibos will always look for an excuse to vote their Fulani partners.

Una speeches nor dey ever complete if una never blame others for una self-inflicted miseries!

In one speech u dey blame awolowo and tinubu (whom u refereed as igbos enemy) for picking northern VP, in d same speech u are blaming wike for "blocking d chances of igbos in d last PDP primaries".

." The APC as the sitting party at the centre of governance has failed to incorporate the Igbos into the presidential office, having fielded Bola Tinubu, a follower of the late Obafemi Awolowo, whose alleged hatred for the Igbo nation knew no bounds. Tinubu, in turn, will pick a Hausa VP, thereby moving to perpetuate the Yoruba/Hausa political hold.” Adikwuru recalled that PDP’s Atiku Abubakar had held that power should move to the South East and as such, he would have supported Ndigbo if PDP had zoned the presidency to South East, adding that his stand was premised on the assumption that both major political parties would anchor their presidential tickets on the South East. “But, the body language and intrigues in APC routed for the South West, while persons like River’s Nyesom Wike, another arch-enemy of Ndigbo, blocked the chances of South-East to produce the presidential candidate of PDP"

May God deliver u!

U ppl claim he has no structure, he stands no chance, he's a joker and all but yet U can't seem to stop talking about him

They should leave you to talk about Tinubu but they should not talk about your brother.

Person wey enter river no dey fear soap water, make you for know...

Nbote:
U ppl claim he has no structure, he stands no chance, he's a joker and all but yet U can't seem to stop talking about him

Hon Denis is a PDP slave and atiku as s licker just like many supporters of LP today we're few months ago, before switching allegiance which is cool though.
Hon Dennis blamed APC and Tinubu for not giving it's ticket to SE aspirant,but was soft on PDP and atiku,who fought tooth and nail to make sure PDP presidential ticket was not zoned to the SE. How fair is that?

So APC and PDP will wake up one morning and it's all over for them.

PETER OBI IS NOT AN IGBO PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE.

It is infinitely wrong to look at PETER OBI as an IGBO presidential candidate. I will tell u why.

When u drive ur car to a mechanic workshop, u do not worry about d tribe of the mechanic especially so, if u are assured of his competence. When u go to a hospital for an important surgery, u do not worry that the team of medical experts are not drawn from ur tribe, u want to live and whoever will give ur health the needed boost is welcome.

Hunger has no tribe. And, hunger has no religion.

Poverty has no tribe. And, poverty has no religion.

Acute sickness has no tribe. And, acute sickness has no religion.

Today, Nigerians are hungry, poor and sick. The majority of Nigerians are below d poverty line. Many have no access to good medicare. These issues cut across all tribes and cultures.

How do we solve the problem? How do we arrest the steady descent into hunger, poverty and sickness? Do we vote for the person who will likely win or do we vote to change the narrative? If u vote for the person who will likely win, but whom u know will not deliver, that makes u PUBLIC ENEMY NUMBER ONE because u are joining hands with our oppressors.

We must vote to change the narrative.

Just as u don't ask if the mechanic is from ur village or if the doctor is of ur tribe, we would not look at PETER OBI as an Igbo; we look at him as the mechanic who will put our economy in perfect shape, we look at him as the doctor who will rescue our economy from imminent and fatal collapse.

If u are not happy that no serious effort is being made to make our educational system functional and effective in the new era, then vote PETER OBI.
If u are not happy that we are borrowing to service debts and to fuel consumption then vote PETER OBI.
If u are not happy that most youths are unemployed and unemployable then vote for PETER OBI.
If u are not happy about the epileptic nature of electricity then vote for PETER OBI.

The question u must answer is: would u allow ur beautiful car to remain unusable because d mechanic is Igbo? Or, would u rather die than allow an Igbo expert to take care of our health?
Do u hate yourself that much, to allow poverty to destroy ur children when there is a genuine and legitimate way out through PETER OBI?

All youths must act now.

This is d last month for getting the PVC. We, the youths demonstrated in Lekki. What happened? They sent soldiers to kill us. The time has come for us to get involved in a way that they cannot kill us. Get ur PVC and get ready to flush these parasites in our nation away. We cannot miss this golden opportunity.

Let the youths arise!
Nigerians must reclaim their land.
