Oga, this shows just 11weeks, which is not even up to 4 months, so how is it d longest?

ProudDick:
Igbo and ijaw.

ProudDick:
But Jonathan did not enthrone one ethnic group over others.

ProudDick:
Are you not defending Jonathan because he favored igbos in his government? Why do you hate buhari if not because you don’t have a say in his government? Why call me a liar for saying the fact?

allthingsgood:
What has tribe got to do with it

ProudDick:
Foolish Igbo bigot.

Luciferlove:
PDP is not used to playing opposition...i wish their roles will be swapped once again

IGBOSON1:
My only issue with Zik is that a widely-travelled and intelligent man like him should have had an idea of the nature, character and values of the people he was lumping together with his! It should have been obvious to him that we’re just not compatible together!

Kapeter:
you know azikiwe with his typical Igbo greedy skull thought he was smart and was playing a funny game led every leader to say what they said. Even Balewa described the new country as a mistake all because of Azikiwe games.

Azikiwe and Ironsi are the reason we are all here today.

ManirBK:
A crime is a crime. Let's stop tribalizing crime out of share hatred of a tribe,visiting the sins of an insignificant few on a whole tribe. There is no greater way to destroy relationships and this nation as a whole. It's a calamity for this nation if at 59 we have learnt nothing and still fanning the embers of hatred instead of building bridges. There is no tribe without its criminals and bad eggs in the country. Let non be condemned because of its criminal elements. Let every crime be punished according to the law.

mercyville:
oting for PDP is not building bridges while you call those tribes bad names.If a mumu
or goat is put up for PDP,you Igbos will vote for him or it.It behoves on PDP to compensate your people with presidency but will they?

ProudDick:
The longest strike in Nigerian university history happened under gej. Some of you think everyone has amnesia.

mercyville:
Igbos have always voted for PDP.They voted for PDP not Obasanjo.They even voted for PDP leaving out their greatest hero Ojukwu when he was on the ballot.Pls,expantiate on why you said Yorubas hate you.Yorubas should be the ones saying that Igbos hate them but they do not usually complain.They just work towards their goals.We should stop all these you hate us,we hate you stuff,The world itself is an entity where ..survival of the fittest..rules.Nobody will give you anything if you are weak and without respect for your fellow humans..

khalifjgusau:
you can just ask us politely instead of asking sarcastic or rhetorical questions?? If you're stressed, don't channel your negativity here please. You are a Christian if I'm not mistaken, go do yours and allow others to practice their religion please...

Fallenhunter:
How would we do this ? If you mean print new currency so that 1 unit note of the new currency will equal 10 Naira then it's possible but not only will it be very expensive, the new currency will immediately undergo some devaluation because of speculation and peoples negative outlook on the economy. So 1 unit note will quickly become equal to 8 or 7 Naira which will devalue the economy. After that if inflation continues at current levels and gdp growth is slow then the currency will further devalue.

A better idea is to let the Naira remain where it is and focus on fixing the economy. The naira may or may not improve but 200,000 Indonesian Rupiah is equal to 1 USD but the Indonesian economy is much stronger than ours is and the people are richer..

FrLukas:
PDP is yet to master the art of political opposition.

seunmsg:
The usual senseless reaction from Reno. There is no difference between the state of education under Jonathan and what it is right now under Buhari. The so called N424billion education budget under Jonathan had no impact because it was stolen by PDP rogues like Reno.

seunmsg:
So, a Yoruba man supporting a Fulani man against an Ijaw man is now tribal bigotry?

You supported Atiku, a Fulani man in the last election, are you also a tribal bigot?

Kapeter:
the way forward, it's good the country is forcing tax(es) on citizens now, oil isn't just enough, if development is needed then the country needs to make the money. And also the re-evaluation of naira is also very important, yea, it should be something 36 after dropping one zero off. The zeros is just too ridiculously too much. Infact if they can drop two zeros, it will be good. And yes, re-introducing coins and forcing it on the citizens same way they forcing the tax(es) since that is the only language the citizens understand.

Kapeter:
Good, the country needs it. They need to re-evaluate the naira too sha. At least remove one zero. The zeros is way too much and it has turn the currency to a joke.

kitombo:
The North of USA is also richer!

PapaBaby:
Let's pray North Korea wins or else they might throw a missile at the south.

Why is North always poor in every country?

MrBrownJay1:
OK then... I guess there are more than 393M firearms in Nigeria then. Have a great day.

sarrki:


Pdp and enemies of the state logic and reasoning

Officialgarri:
I agree that Aisha is power drunk. She's forcefully trying to create an office for herself.
If not for her position as the wife of the president, I'm sure that woman will step out on the streets to protest against the alleged cabals.

Well, she has just 3 and half years to be heard

dukeprince50:
I stand to be corrected but the cyber fight between SW and SE was after 2019 election when APC won SW, The prediction was that SW votes will be shared 50:50, Atiku will share northern vote and SE and SS is a lockdown, Igbo's were angry SW gave 60% votes to APC which they felt is a northern party and they begin to call them slaves of the North, meanwhile SW also know a thing or two about internet unlike the North, and so the SW retaliated, this was wat made Igbo's angry because they didn't imagine SW will also attack them same way, they expect SW to be mute just like the north. The Igbo's caused the problems they are facing. You should learn to respect others no matter who they vote for. Moreover the SW didn't vote against the Igbos, they voted APC. Are you expecting them to give you their votes when their son is vice president, and ministers? even Igbo's refuse to vote for their own son, they voted against APC.

Commentor:
Because he never said so.

How many times would you be told this ?

Commentor:
They lost their turn in 2015.

As soon as Nnamdi Kanu was elevated to the position of spokesperson cum spiritual leader for the Igbos, that was the end of their presidential ticket.

Whilst others waited with bated breathes for a reprimand of Nnamdi Kanu and the Ipob movement by the educated and sane, the true shock that befell other tribes was the tacit and overt support he seemed to garner.

Honestly, 2023 should have been for the Igbos but they lost it due to their utterances and I'm no prophet but I can say for sure they would not be making president in 2023.

Commentor:
No one would vote someone not dedicated to the cause.

LegendHer0:
To be honest, common sense will dictate that the Igbos need to be given a chance to assume the mantle of presidency for cohesion sake so that every one of the major tribes will have a sense of belonging.

One can argue that the advantage of such noble act will imply that Nigeria can move away from its gory past and forge an alliance of brotherhood going forward coz an Igbo president will not hurt but rather heal the nation.

But they have to blink first and actually come together to rally a common course. To take power you have to make do with emotional politics and play politics as it should be played which is to make friends with the enemy and strike when you have the power.

In politics, you have to understand the power of alliance and diplomacy. A strong person is not someone that can’t bow or shift stance, but rather a strong person is someone who have conquered the weakness of emotion. Play politics like how it should be played and see how that will come to fruition for them.
