Inasmuch I do not care who becomes senate president, Felix Morka just exposed his hypocrisy. If it is about national interest and equity, why did they not pick a southeast candidate for the president? Any president from southeast since 1999?

Politics is About Winning( Numbers), Governance is about inclusiveness & delivery. Only an amateur will not understand d politics side in Nigeria. Any party dat brings out an Igbo candidate will lose, just as it played out in Last election especially wen d north is d beautiful bride.

Senate Presidency should go to South South.. Igbos should rest, no be only them dey Nigeria.

When it's time to covet SS oil and mineral resources, you'll see Igbos making comments like 'we the SS&SE', now wey politics don tie wrapper, It's SS separate and SE separate.

SW had none of the top six positions under Goodluck Jonathan and Igbos didn't make noise cos they were the ones enjoying GEJ's government. Table has turned, they should accept their L and keep quiet.

If I remember right Tinubu /APC scuttled the emergence of a Yoruba man as Speaker.
PS: I am not from Southeast

Someone said that the SE deserve the seat of Senate President and I replied him by saying "SE produced the highest number of SP than any region since 1999." His best defence was to throw an insult at me. The NASS should choose whom ever they deem fit to lead them. Thanks!

The issue of fairness and equity should not be joined in this discussion.

Equity has now become a convenient word for APC.

Where was equity in choosing a southern president?

Why for the sake of fairness was it not given to a region in the south that had never gotten it?

1999-2007 Olusegun Obasanjo (Ogun - Southwest)

2010-2015 Goodluck Jonathan (Bayelsa - South South)

Even VPs

2007-2010 Goodluck Jonathan (Bayelsa- South South)

2015-present Yemi Osibanjo (Ogun- Southwest)

Going by the above, if fairness, equity and justice were the watchword of the APC, I think the southeast would have been given the chance of producing the next president of Nigeria so let's stop this "sanctimoniousness".

Everyone should be allowed to aspire and the best candidate, win.

NB
Before you draw the "Igbo" card out, I'm not Igbo and not from any sub Igbo group. I just hate injustice.

Inclusion? When the outgoing vice president and speaker are from the south west. The president elect is from the same south west and the north west by your calculation will get deputy senate president and speaker even though the outgoing president is from the north west still.

Igbos are majority in south south and Igbos have many oil and gas in large quantities.Senate president doesn't really change anything,but for inclusiveness,Igbos should be considered.

Where was this stupid logic during the apc primaries.

South West - president obasanjo
South South - president Goodluck
South East - zero

South West - vice president Osibanjo
South South - vice president Goodluck
South East - zero.

If You were reasonable and sensible enough you'd have used the logic of South vs North during the primaries.
Unfortunately no sane and reasonable being supports apc

Is it by force to include south east?

So if there's no capable or qualified person from the east we should just choose anybody so you can stop crying

What about South-South which produced President, Vice president, speaker of the rep and deputy senate president, those are not enough as they want to add senate president to the list.
South-East has only senate president, Deputy senate president and deputy speaker.
You guys should let this matter die. Ibos are actually the problem of Ibos. The aim of every Ibo man should be how to win or get presidency rather than dragging SP with SS. One great mistake to make now is to have enmity with your SS brothers. Let's be wise

I am not after the SP just as every other Igbo man out there, having the SP is only beneficial to the individual and not to the South East in general. I am only pointing out the person's hypocrisy.

That's why it is called an election. They should work on their politics. Nobody will give anything to anybody.

How did Tinubu/ACN scuttled the emergence of a yoruba person as speaker?
ACN has just 56 members in the house and Tambuwal won the seat with over 250 votes... Maybe you don't know that some PDP members from the SW didn't support the yoruba woman imposed on them..
Let us be sincere when we raise points on public forum.

Where were you guys when OUK from SE supported Lawan from NE and he said it on channels tv that if APC will not micro zone it to SE then the north should have it... Now same OUK is crying now and want to reap where he didn't sow.

If that be the case, it's understood. Hypocrisy runs in Nigerian political class. I worry less about these politicians. All we seek is good governance. Once many things work in Nigeria, people will literally don't bother about where one comes from.

Go to the elections, if you're popular, you'd win!!!

He should stop with the zoning card of it has never been zoned here.
