LesbianBoy:
No wahala

South East would be happy as far as South West don't rule again.

Aren't you the people campaigning on how igbos are not qualified to rule but you

kunyeo:
My brother it is always good to be a student of history.Unfortunately the subject was removed from the curriculum some time ago.The objective of the Pirates Confraternity then was as a tool to fight colonialism with the ultimate aim of making Nigerian self-ruled via independence

So you mean that they don't do history in waec again?
To fight colonialism with juju or with intellect.
But why that devilish logo

Osaze007:
Then compete I thought igbos brag about merit ?

No problem we gonna support the best possible outcome in any zone

But hope you read the tread where they said fulani will rule Nigeria forever

oyatz:
1) The zoning of party and Government offices are enshrined in the constitution of the PDP which is inferior to the constitution of Nigeria and is not binding on APC members or other non-PDP Nigerians.

I think you should demand that the PDP should zone her presidential ticket to you and also envourage igbo politicians in the APC to seek the party's ticket.

2) I don't believe that only Yoruba or only Igbo or only Nupe or only Igala candidates should contest.

Why do you wrongly assume that once a Yoruba candidate is contesting, an igbo candidate can not win? We need to do away with us dangerous stereotypes.

3) Right now, igbo politicians somehow believe they can not win the 2023 presidential election but this is NOT due to the fault of the Yorubas.

The ambitious Igbo politicians are presently druming support for Atiku 2023 project, with the hope that an igbo candidate can become at least the Vice-President. Nobody is calling them 'betrayers, backstabber or greedy'

This is a worthy cause and nobody is calling them out for this choice but young igbo guys like you should leave Tinubu or any Yoruba politician alone to aspire for any post they deem fit.

Live and let live!

OK let's slug it out to the norths favour as you people wish
You say igbo politicians believe they cannot win? Who told you so and for what reason can't they win
Hope you read the tread where they said fulani will rule Nigeria forever

oyatz:
How did you know that 'Yorubas want to be the sole beneficiary of the southern slot'?

Do you understand Nigerian politics more than Peter Obi, Ike Ekweremadu, Orji Uzo Kalu, Chris Ngige?
Why are these seasoned igbo politicians not accussing the Yorubas of trying to cheat them?

Because you have never heard my name doesn't mean that I don't follow nigerian politics.

Aside being a politician common sense should tell you that if yorubas are campaigning against igbos and at the same time campaigning for themselves I have no reason that that is their plan because another generation of yorubas will come up with another slogan of how igbos are not qualified to rule, they will cite one event against you and start telling you how smart politically they are. That is the game plan if not I don't understand how yorubas will be saying that educated igbos are not qualified from an over 40 million population

These politicians you mentioned are just concerned about what they will get now and not the future

Hope you read the tread where they said fulani will rule Nigeria forever

basybasy:
Obj got it because he was supported by the North and North population is more than South West. This case is different my friend. APC will never abandoned South West for South East. Reason now!

SE and north supported OBJ

So we should avoid a situation where the SE will join North to support a northern candidate because yorubas wants to be the sole beneficiary of the southern slot

basybasy:
Yoruba does not against rotation. PDP used 16 yrs in power, but failed to correct the wrong and did the right thing. In a normal society, it should be rotating by the six regions.

So APC should normalize things according to their promises

oyatz:
This can only be attained if the rotation is enshrined in the constitution and the order of rotation is well stated to remove any ambiguity.


However, until this amendment is made, we have to play by the present constitutional rule.



#In my personal opinion, this can be enshrined in the constitution provided the powers of the president is greatly reduced to a ceremonial head of the country.

Agreed, that it suppose to be in the constitution but PDP has been practicing it and it has helped to stabilize the polity
But I wonder why you support that only yorubas should be producing the southern candidate. Do you think that this behavior will stabilize the south?
Or you just don't care
All these preaching of trying to outsmart SE doesn't make sense.
We are just calling for equity and not who is smarter or politicking better
Once it's our turn we should share it equally if not we will all loose forever.
I just pity the South

Osaze007:
It’s crab mentality
If igbos can’t have it yorubas must not have it

Who is trying to cheat who? SW is trying to cheat SE
You are supporting the oppressor

basybasy:
Thank u my friend. APC is giving ticket to South West whether Ffk likes or not. Today, the structure of APC is in d hand of Tinubu. What are we saying? He has bn patiently waiting. Even Buhari cannot stop him because he is not good in politics and lobbying. He is not like Obj. Quote me today, may God spare our lives, Tinubu has 90% chance to get Apc's ticket. From Fashola, Osinbajo, Fayemi, Adam Oshomole, Ajumobi, Ganduje and many others are Tinubu boys. Already, he holds APC structure and has sacrificed a lot for APC. Even, Buhari can't oppose him.Also, the North knows that 2023 is for South, because, nobody dragged 2015 with them, South even sacrificed Jonathan for North. I arise my case.

But you people are saying that rotation is unconstitutional

basybasy:
How csn APC consider South East? Has South East ever liked APC. Continue deceiving yourself.

Did SW like PDP when OBJ was given the ticket and we all supported him to become president

oyatz:
. . .And how do we make our society normal?

All societies that appear normal evolve through trials, repeated trials and modifications of their national ethos.

Since we have adopted and accepted democracy as a system of Government, we need to try and re-try different democratic political permutations to deepen our democratic culture.

What you are calling 'Southern unity' will create a dangerous divide that will make other region too to gang-up against you. This will only deepen our fault lines and makes it difficult to achieve a national consesus.

Tinubu is a Ñigerian citizen and any citizen aspiring to become the president of his country should be encourage because this strengthen our democratic culture.

Tinubu, no matter his shortcomings is NOT the problem of Nigeria or the South and the whole debate about the 2023 election can not be centred on him.

Besides Tinubu, there are at least a dozen other Nigerians that are planning to contest the 2023 election.


Democracy is a journey, it is not a destination. It is a process, it is not an event.

There were many myths (e.g Civilian-to-civilian transition, 2nd term jinx, Southern candidate can not defeat Northern candidate etc) about Nigerian Democracy that have been bursted as we continue in the democratic process.

It will make for a stable polity if the south Unite against the north and the north against the south while we rotate the presidency amongst the two regions.
While Nobody will usurp the others turn

What can be more stable than that
Its better to learn from other countries mistake than to fall into the same ditch while claiming that it has happened before to others

Grayoso:
My friend, it is not your turn amd may not be in our lifetime. Even if the Yorubas abstained I make bold to say APC will still not consider an Igbo.

Its a lie
APC will consider igbos if there is a joint demand for it from the south the only problem is that you people want to contest

Osaze007:
Awwww this is toxic jealousy

Your contesting on others turn is toxic greed

Grayoso:
100%. Even Igbos know this and that is why they are making a show of pretending as if it is Yorubas standing in the way of their null and void 2023 ambition.

Expect to read Igbos in 30 years blaming Yorubas for "betraying" them in 2023

Once you contest after using up your own term in the south and the south fails then you should be ready to take the blame
The best presidents nigeria never had : awolowo, abiola, jagaban will join the fray. Watch out

Osaze007:
We are special blah blah story
Vote for the Fulani firs
t then we will take you seriously

Knowing you people very well even if we vote the Fulani you will still change the narrative against us. So chill

See their faces twisting facts

CilicMarin:
FAKE News by planted by Obaseki- the newly adopted son of the IPOB Pigs.

IPOB bone go hang ur throat

kunyeo:
I am not in support of cultism but for those blaming Wole Soyinka this is my submission-It is like blaming the missionaries for bringing Christianity to Nigeria,looking at what we Nigerians have turned it to today.

Your comparison is absurd

Christianity had good intentions

What was the intention of the cultists from the beginning if not to oppress

See their logo self

Loooooooogstory:
if he was the pioneer that means igbos have always copied what they see yourbas doing?
Yoruba leads... Others follow

leading in bad things

Osaze007:
As for yoruba and mid west we were neutral until you sacked mid west and installed an Igbo man and aim to annex Lagos and Ibadan and Yorubas rightly defeated such a move protecting their territorial integrity

If your waiting to be “expelled” before you get biafra you go wait tire

Why did the igbos in Ebonyi not vote for the Fulani man such a wicked people

If you can't expel us then stop complaining about us
That means all you have been saying about our peoples hatred for you are lies.
You people still find us special and the best people to be with
Its hard for any society to let go of progressive minded people like the igbos

We organized a free and fair elections for the fulani man and he couldn't win its not our fault.
Igbos are not asking yorubas to vote for them in Yoruba land, we only demand a free and fair elections the same way we do for other tribes in igbo land
You sophisticated people should stop election violence against the igbos its killing your one nigerian dream

Grayoso:
Take it as you like. You people don't do reality anyway. If you did you'd have accepted long ago that Igbo Presidency in 2023 is a pipe dream whether Yorubas contest or not.

Because you refuse to support a fellow southerner that is the reason it's a pipe dream
The reality check is that you people never support igbos

oyatz:
I believe you want to reply someone else because this post is totally unrelated to my earlier post.

It was a mistake really, it is not for you

oyatz:
You are saying totally different things.
Contesting elections is a type of gambles and besides 'killings, hunger and insecurity' are not the same thing as political supremacy of the Hausa-Fulanis.

What if 'the gamble' succeed?

Being defeated in an election is not necessarily an evil thing. You just need to buckle-up and start again.
Those who fail today, may win tommorow.

You are the one that need that advice most sir because you are the one blaming other Nigerians for your woes and everything that is wrong with the country.

'Southern Unity' is NOT a political party. It will elicit 'Northern Unity'. No serious politician is making these kinds of Statement.

All that you are saying are normal if we are in a normal society.
But we are not in a normal society. We are in a society that miyetti Allah gives orders and take over peoples land.
That gamble by the south because of one man's ambition is not worth it in today's miyetti Allah controlled nigeria.
We need to put our best foot forward. The south will win if we collectively demand for it because its our turn
There is no way tinubu will win a northerner if the other south is against him because of his greed

Awolowos failed ambition of becoming Nigeria's president as was promised him by the hausas if he joined hands to scatter the aburi accord restructuring which Ojukwu did then is what we are still suffering from till today
Today everybody is trying to claim back that restructuring which igbos were killed for.

If you fail there will be no tomorrow to win on because I read this morning that miyetti Allah said that they need no permission to occupy any part of Nigeria
Just imagine what will happen if you fail because I am not seeing any winning by a southernner if we have a disjointed south

Osaze007:
Yes it was after ore Yorubas and others switched 100%

Switch 100%, you should have stated how many % of yorubas was fighting and killing igbos before the switch if not you are lying
Hmnm, Gowon was commanding nigerian troops which contain yorubas I have never heard that any Yoruba disobeyed command. You were all fully in the war 100%from the beginning. The command structure was also in Lagos a Yoruba land so all these your narrative of "we joined the war after ore debacle" doesn't add up.

Your political leaders were for the war against igbos so how can your military not participate

Yorubas know how to produce one defensive slogan that cannot even stand scrutiny when questioned after every evil that they commit

Osaze007:
As for yoruba and mid west we were neutral until you sacked mid west and installed an Igbo man and aim to annex Lagos and Ibadan and Yorubas rightly defeated such a move protecting their territorial integrity

If your waiting to be “expelled” before you get biafra you go wait tire

Why did the igbos in Ebonyi not vote for the Fulani man such a wicked people

How can you say yorubas were neutral.
So you mean that obasanjo entered the war after the igbos tried to annex ore... Say the truth so that your God can be proud of you

Yorubas were neutral and the command structure of how igbos are to be massacred were in Yoruba land

Abeg tell me what kind of neutral be that

Osaze007:
Why didn’t you support the Fulani man in Ebonyi
Hypocrisy has a store in aba
Yorubas are not your masters holding Biafra tender it from your leaders

Our political leaders supported him but he did not have the population that can make him win

You are not our masters but you will always take up arms against us if we want to leave you. Why didn't you remain neutral
Also remember your newspaper editorials strongly not supporting us while combining and giving the fulanis strategy on how to make sure we remain with you

BTW, why do you want me to ask from our leaders but you are the ones complaining of us.
Why not give us the Singapore treatment.
How Malaysia expelled Singapore to go and be on their own because they don't like them

We urge you to follow that route because we don't love each other

Osaze007:
If igbos like their business they should stay off yoruba politics simple as abc
You can see how they used Okada ban to chase people away just one single policy and y’all over period

But can you expatriate on the meaning of one nigeria that you people killed igbos on
That means you should support us for Biafra so that we can leave your politics for you and kill off one nigeria
We only contest in places where we are hopeful of winning free and fair with our majority population
I still repeat that we didn't beg to be in SW. We were forced by you people or are you now regretting fighting for one nigeria
We work and pay tax in those places that we live so we are eligible to contest says your "one nigeria constitution "
The Okada ban policy also affected yoruba agberos that usually collect tax from them.
Its a loose loose situation for everybody

Osaze007:
Very funny set of people they don’t elect others but want others to elect them

I swear yorubas should not only deal with their business interest in Lagos but all of south west and Yoruba land

Your hate igbos even more than the yorubas
Why were you chasing igbo voters away from the queue in the last elections in Lagos. Igbos that are contesting in Lagos are banking on igbo population for vote. Did they beg you to vote them? No
The hausa guys election comments u posted, the hausa guy can depend on his hausa population for votes.
Did you hear that igbos harassed anybody on the queue?
Igbos are fair play people. They know they will win in a fair contest but you people always depend on lopsidedness for victory

If u even attack their business that means you are jealous of their successes.
Not that you even have the might and acumen to replace them in the business

Osaze007:
Explain Chidis behaviour

I have told you that these commenters are not from our political leaders and they have never carried out any physical aggression against any hausa voters just like the yorubas did to the igbos by not just commenting but carried it out at okota during the last elections
Apart from derogatory comments did the guy complain of any attack on his voters the way you people that are educated attacked us

You can't can't compare this with your earlier threats of violence against us

Osaze007:
Yorubas are not in the business others unlike igbos
I know them and will support them
You can carry your campaign of hate somewhere else

It’s not greedy for Fulani to rule again
But it’s greedy for yoruba to aspire to do the same

Yorubas must be understanding of the igbos but it’s okay if fulunas are not understanding of the igbos

Just saw you loathe Yoruba people

Where did I campaign of hate
I was telling you the way of the shithole we find ourselves but you people are not cooperating instead you are claiming that we hate you

Its you people that hate us but like living with us

oyatz:
Who determines the majority and what will hurt them?

The constition of Nigeria regulate the process of becoming a President in Nigeria.

The constitution of APC regulate the process of becoming APC presidential candidate.

What regulate the process of becoming the candidate of 'united South'? How many 'United South' do we have and how can we differentiate the original from the fake?


How can the whole debate about the 2023 be reduced to Tinubu affairs?


Igbos should support Atiku and leave Tinubu alone to pursue his ambition.

There are only two possible outcomes

1) Tinubu is defeated:
Implications=> The Poltical Supremacy of the Hausa-Fulani hegemony will be reinforced

2) Tinubu wins:

Implications=> The myth that a southern presidential candidate can not defeat a Hausa-Fulani candidate will once again be bursted.

Nobody becomes a leader of a country by mistake. If it is part of Tinubu's destiny to become the president, he will become the president and if it is not, he won't.

Psalm 62:11 'Once has God spoken, twice have i heard that power belongs to God'

All those comments there are not from our political leaders so they are inconsequential.

And nobody in igbo land has ever harassed any hausa voters from voting just like u people did to the igbos in the last election by flogging old men and women with Cain in which ademola at okota nearly got killed
No igbo political leader commented unlike you that jagaban was calling us "awon okoro" to your delight which lead to your people harassing our peaceful voters

BTW, we are not claiming educated and sophistication like you people
