See look here i'm from the SW,and i don't care from which region the next president will come from,all i care about is someone that will take Nigeria out from this shit hole Buhari has successfully thrown us into.

That been said,i still don't think the position of power is been handed over on a platter of Gold,if the North can successfully get the support of SE and SS and they produce the next president so be it,that means they've done their homework accurately,if the SW can successfully get the support of the North and produce the next president so be it,that means they've also accurately done their homework.

The SE should also go and plan on how they will successfully get their homework accurately done by seeking for the approval from other region instead of making enemies out of every region and coming back to wail that they deserve up and down

First of all,
power was handed down on a platter to the south West in 1999.

So yes, power can be given.

Nobody contested it with the south West, not even in the South.

Why can't the south west do the same?

It's not like there are no Igbo Candidate available.

Peter obi is even very credible than any body else in the polity.

So what else?

Dangote is getting cheap gas and oil right now in Lagos piped all the way from the Niger delta.

That is only possible because of one naijeria.

Titaniumental:
I beg to differ,

Lagos don't need anyone's validation,Lagos is a mountain on it own that will still thrive with or without Nigeria.

Special status my foot

Oh really?

How many big companies in Lagos source their energy from Lagos?

Or you don't know the importance of gas and proximity to it?

Go and ask the European Union scrambling everywhere for it.

You are parasitizing on the rest of Nigeria and still flexing shoulder pad.

Divide Nigeria and let's see if Lagos will remain the same.

First of all, those manufacturing Companies would start moving to the Niger delta after paying through their nose for Niger Delta gas when it's being exported.

In 1999, the north installed OBj and used the south east and south south to put him there against the south west candidate of olu falae.

It happened again during the yaradua era.

So what makes some people think it's only their region that can be "used"?

Titaniumental:
They should get it themselves, enough of all this wailings and wailings of them deserving it,it is too disturbing to the ears,If position of power is by who deserve it,alot of people who are currently in power won't be there,.......

SE and SS should go out there in 2023 and get it themselves if they think they deserve it,while all this wailings?

Is not like SW need there support if they want power,all the need is NW,NE and NC support.

Likewise North also don't need there support to win all they need is SW and NC support

So what if the North use the south east or South South to win elections like they did before?

It's even very possible now if a northerner gets the ticket in the pdp.

Or you think it's only the South West that can be "used"?

membranus:
No way bro.

Nobody gets the presidency on a platter of gold.

You want it, you work for it by winning the people's support nationally.

But unfortunately the Igbos have little friends out there to support their aspiration. Even among themselves they are not united.

I don't think there is any candidate that will beat Peter obi in southern Nigeria.

So I don't Know what you are on about.

The problem is in the core north.

The same core north that use a southern region to divide and conquer for their own ends.

They have no problem using the south east or the south south to play the same role.

This country will never truly move forward until the south can counterbalance the north.

And the South can only counterbalance the north when they pull in one direction.

And that can only happen when there is fairness.

The reason why the lagos-calabar rail is not a priority for the Federal govt is because the south is not a true political weight yet.

The reason why Lagos will never enjoy special status anytime soon is also because of the same reason.

The same as Federalism, resource control, state policing.

All these will never happen without a United South.

And a United South will never happen because some people are used to divide and conquer the south due to over ambition and short sightedness.

That is the right thing.

You can ask for concessions in exchange, but support Peter obi for president.

Not that tommorow, you will start looking for Southern unity after destroying the unity in the first place by unfair practices.

I don't understand.

Your husband gave you gifts and you are showing us.
Why?

It's like a 10 year old girl showing the world the food that her mummy cooked for her.

The US would look at us and laugh.

ppogba:
Truth is bitter.

You just said it.

Person wey never show pride na because he never get reason or opportunity.

Humility is an abnormality.

God resists the proud but gives Grace to the humble.

If you are proud, it's not your village people that will fight you, it is the almighty God himself.

Pride is a quality of the devil.

Yes, you are right in a way that humility is an abnormality because you have to deliberately choose to humble.
The default human nature is pride.

The more you practice humility, the more it becomes your second nature and you become a humble man or woman even without thinking about it.

His father, Pete Edochie is one of the most misogynistic men I have ever heard speak.

So apple tree no dey produce orange.

sulaak:
Why should he wait?

If the SE has the numbers and platform then they should take the presidency, if they don't have the numbers or platform to win the presidency then they should fall in line with other weak minority ethnic groups.

Politics in Nigeria is about diplomacy , engagement and power. Good luck to the next Igbo presidential candidate.

Yes, na.

Because we are your subjects and you are our masters.

Our ancestors fought the British for independence so that we will become your servants?

So they told you in your village that the meaning of diplomacy is hegemony and undeserved domination??

You try. See your mouth like diplomacy.
Using words that you don't even know the meaning of.

What a clown.

Go and get the presidency let see.
You will rule over yourselves not the rest of us.

MadamExcellency:
If Nairaland floats an app, it will be banned by big techs for tribalism, racism, and hate speech.

Did you remember when Ogugua reported Nairaland to google for breaching its policy? Nairaland needs serious sanitization and reforms.

Where is ogugua, Btw?

She got married and left us?

Murphyenemuwe:
Then why are you all lamenting how you've been marginalized if presidency isn't that special? Please your confusion is confusing us. What do you really want?

Who is you all?

Your mates dey talk of good governance, you dey talk of tribe?

I pity your future.

FutureIsFemale:
God please bless me with a good husband.

If you are a good wife, receive it in Jesus name.

Good husbands deserve only good wives.

muhyeenisce:
NO IGBO PRESIDENT

Does that mean you will finally be able to pay chibuzor in your street for those paints of garri you bought on credit?

sulaak:
I thought the discussion is about zoning to regions and not ethnic groups, Saraki is from Kwara hence he is from the NC, just like Peter Obi is from the SE.

Then tell saraki to go back to 2015 and get it back from buhari when the north west was taking it.

After all they were in the same party.

Or he can wait till the next 8 years for his chance to loot Nigeria.

Then wait till the next 8 years when it is the turn of the north again.

You should have fought for it when buhari was getting it in 2015.

Hopeless corrupt clown.

It reminds me of line of duty.

The UK is a system that works.

Development is not accidental.

Danyyyyyyyyyyy:
Na wa oh
What did he do to you ?
His crime was that be was born rich and instead of you people to look for your own , you're bashing him
What is even a world class specimen and do you qualify as one? Or you're just a judge

So you didn't see that earlier post that was downgrading those girls because of davido?

You no well.

Uncle96:
Bullshit, davido can do better, I'm not even a celebrity but most of my ex's are finer and doper , body and face wise. I don't even understand the hype.

I won't even date her for more than a month if u know me well

Can't do better?
Really?

Remove money, and even chioma no go allow davido greet am, let alone turn am to babymama.

Davido is not exactly a world class specimen.
His money is though.

Hook up girls.

If Jonathan enters and he has only one term, he is going to deal with a lot of people Sha.

All those northerner that were frustrating his agenda in his first term, if they try it again, will be parked like sardines and thrown into prison.

And who knows, he may finally clear the system of nonsense.
He has nothing to lose.

Anyway, Peter obi is my Candidate.

A new Jonathan will be different from the old Jonathan that they know.

The old Jonathan was naive, peaceful and innocent

The new Jonathan is now very experienced, angry and possibly set on revenge.

Damn.

She is a fine girl.

shizzle1:
But why are some Chelsea fans crying?

CSTRR, is everything alright? Why so bitter?

Which player in his right senses will reject an advance from almighty Real Madrid? .. the most celebrated, successful, decorated football club on the planet?

Clown.

He is going to Madrid because Chelsea did not pay him what he wants.

We don't think he is worth it.
If we paid him, he would stay.

He is leaving for money, not for glory.

zeedrous:
Madrid would have to tweak their defence system too. If not, rudiger will fumble there o.

Na Dem sabi.
Wetin concern me.

Rudiger is like the case of a man that was blessed by God after years of praying in poverty, and then after getting fat, decided that it was his own making that made him rich.

The next owner of Chelsea will need to invade the market for the midfield.
Get us Declan rice or Tchoumaini.

For the Defence, get in kounde from sevilla and bring back levi colwill from loan.
I'd rather a high potential academy player than another mercenary looking for the highest pay.

And then raid Barcelona for ousmane dembele.
Our attack need a killer on the wings.

zeedrous:
U sabi ball bro. Only a back 3 system favours him

We tweaked our system to suit him.

And this is how he pays us back after years of calamitous defending in a back 4.

thrillionaire:
Yass! Hala Madrid!

Unless you play a back 3, then this hazard 2.0

Atleast, it's not going to be as expensive.

The only people we can't afford to lose are Thomas tuchel and our academy players like mount, chalobah, and Reece James.
