^^ That must mean Lagos State has the most illiterates and Bayelsa has the least.
Just when I try to give you people a little credit you yorubas always same so dumb sh*t, lol.smh. The reason I didn't go into detail's because I would think that literates wouldn't include places like lagos(a high populated and multiculture state) and, but then again I guess it was my fault for assuming that you weren't dumb. My bad. embarassed

Lets not get personal here!

I find it laughable that anyone would propose an ibo block vote for anything when history has shown there is no such thing as an ibo consensus.

I foresee Emeka in Katsina publicly lining up behind CPC and voting Buhari just to guarantee that his aboki neighbours come back to buy his goods after elections!!!  cheesy cheesy wink
And then Emeka will use his other two voters cards to block that Buhari vote and add to GEJ. cheesy cheesy wink

I like your analyses. perhaps that is why the illiterate Hausas slaughter your people like sallah cow, and to boot they make your girls suck their manliness for 50 naira at nights.

Irrespective, shouldnt you be ashamed that with your education and supposed majority status, you are still being lord over by the Illiterate almanjiri, and what do you have to show for it, yeah, whining, and more whining and when they deny you political power, you whine some more and then blame the Yoruba gateman for all your woes.

Wadeoye:
If Igbos have the largest population in Nigeria and no party even consider you for VP, then something must be wrong with that ethnic group. It is a fact that Igbos are self-centered and would prefer to chase personal interest than group interest. That is what makes it look as if Igbo is just 1% of Nigeria population.
hmm. . .

I know every one in the SW is not Yoruba, but everyone in the SE is Igbo. Bravo! Great thinking.

And yeah Igbos vote enmasse in The NW while the Hausas in the SE dont vote at all
The hausas in Igboland can't read(nothing is written in arabic,hausa,or fulani wink), write, not to talk of speak basic english. The yorubas are gatemen in SE, few store owners(very few). wink

Yes you're right. It shows that Igbos may have the highest population in Nigeria. It's even speculated that 70% of Ndigbo live outside Igboland.

Let us face the facts from this INEC's figure.About 50% of the electorates live in NW and SW.That should be a headache for Jonathan because NW is Buhari's stronghold and has almost 19million people while his deputy is from SW which has more than 14million people.Jonathan's state is the least populated while his stronghold which is SE and SS combined has a population of over 15million.
Lets face it, GJ will get most votes in the SW, if not most, then half. Everyone in the SW is not yoruba, and every yoruba isn't going to vote buhari. Also igbos voted en-masse in NW(so unless they rig buhari in, which i suspect they will, he's going to have a hard time).

[size=15pt]Voter registration: Groups commend Ndigbo in North[/size]

By Onoja  Audu Correspondent, Jos



Igbo Democratic Forum (IDF) has been commended for  its role in the mobilization of Ndigbo in the North that fully participated in the just concluded voter registration in all the 19 Northern states and the Federal Capital Territory Abuja.

Various groups and individuals of Igbo extraction in the North, who spoke with  Daily Independent, commended the massive turn out of Ndigbo in the just concluded voter registration.

It would be recalled that Igbo Democratic Forum had late last year organized the  first Igbo in Northern Nigeria Political summit  in Jos  preceding  the voter registration.

Reviewing the participation of Ndigbo based in the North in the exercise, a group of intellectuals based in the Northern part of the country led by Dr  Kenneth Ozoilo said, “This was about the first time the Igbos would make it a point of duty to come about en masse and participate in voter registration with zeal and enthusiasm.”

Ozoilo on behalf of the  group noted that the usual apathy towards such exercise has waned and more Ndigbo have come to realize the essence of participating in the exercise in places where they are resident.

IDF had last year undertaken a campaign educating Ndigbo on the need to participate in the voter registration, pointing out the fact that they would not have any basis to complain if they do not participate in deciding the leadership of the country and of where they reside.

President of the Igbo Democratic Forum, Chief Chidi Ndu, had at different fora emphasized that the Ndigbo must stop relocating from their bases in times of election to go the South East to register or to vote but stressed that[b] since they are part and parcel of the places they are resident and contribute to the economic development of those places, they must remain and not only vote but even contest political positions.
[/b]
Another group made up students from South Eastern Nigeria noted that such enlightenment campaign and education of the electorate is what has led to the massive participation of Ndigbo based in the north in the last registration and encouraged the IDF to step up the campaign to the next level by ensuring similar success in participation in the general elections.

Spokesperson of the students, Emeka Ani, commended the IDF for what he described as a job well done and urged both the federal and the 19 state governments in the north to support the cause of the IDF to bring about national integration and development.

Fstranger and co,
asha80 did not say that igbos are more than yorubas in lagos.
It doesnt mean than every non south westerner is igbo. Why are you guys crying already? No one is out to take your lagos from you. Ok?
Make una take am easy joor.
If the election is free and fair, the Igbos will be the ones to decide who wins the presidency.We have the population spread throughout the country and in the millions in almost all states.

Clearly Goodluck Jonathan knows nothing about economics. Not surprising because I'm pretty sure economics is not part of the curriculum for zoology. Can't blame the economic advisor,if any, because I'm sure he/she was a carpenter or a wrestler before they were given the position.

PoliticsCbn To Imf: We Won’t Devalue Naira by Chyz2(op): 5:24pm On Feb 21, 2011
[size=15pt]CBN to IMF: We won’t devalue naira[/size]

Monday, 21 February 2011 00:00




The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has disagreed with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) on the latter’s advice that the Federal Government should devalue the naira and make it flexible. The IMF advised Nigeria to devalue its naira last week after concluding the 2010 Article IV Consultation with Nigeria.


But in a text message in response to our reporter’s question, CBN governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, said though a formal statement on the bank’s position on the matter will be issued this week, he disagrees with the IMF position.

Asked if the central bank was thinking of devaluing the naira, Sanusi said, “No Idris and I have already said so on CNBC () and I told the IMF I didn’t agree with them. We will issue a formal statement next week (this week).”

This was not the first time the IMF was asking the country to devalue its currency. In 1986, the IMF/World Bank asked Nigeria to devalue the naira, open its market and liberalize its economy.

The result was the economy reform of the Structural Adjustment Program (SAP).

Analysts say effect of SAP has brought about the economic crisis which the country is yet to correct.

The Nigerian naira currently exchanges N150 to the US$ officially and about N157 to the US$ at the parallel market.

Last week, the IMF said: “Directors took note of the staff’s assessment of an overvaluation of the naira, and stressed that greater exchange rate flexibility would prevent one-way bets in the foreign exchange market and cushion external shocks.”

It said that the economic outlook of the country remains positive and risks are generally balanced.

It projected Nigeria’s economy to grow by 7 percent in 2011, and to moderating gradually in subsequent years. It also projected inflation to decline to 9 percent by the end of 2011. Inflation rate climbed from 11.8 percent in December 2010 to 12.1 percent as at January 2011.

IMF warned that if the National Assembly increased the N4.2 billion 2011 budget currently before it, inflation will worsen.

It said that inflation has been stuck in the low double digits for the past two years and foreign reserves have been falling because the CBN has focused on maintaining exchange rate stability and low interest rates.
