Nigerian Igbo king? Means what in op's mind? What makes you people think that many Igbos move out of Igbo land in the first place? It will not last any longer.
Some Agbadoriansss may be taking all these as opposition talks. Not until they use fraud to return Tinubu and the military takes over Nigeria, their eyes go clear.
"Everyone claims to be democratic but not everyone is faithful to his or her word. We have governments that are democracies on paper, but not in function. They are democracies in form but not in substance. We have governments that only know democracy primarily through breaching it" ~ words on marble by Jagaban Asiwaju BAT ♾️
How?
But Fashola has been Tinubu's political thinktank. Sotay, Tinubu posted Fashola to become in charge of three big ministries in one - Power, Housing and Works put under one ministry. Alas, electricity supply went down to what Goodluck Jonathan administration left it.
Tinubu returned and told voters: if I don't give you steady electricity, don't vote me for 2nd term.
Fire brigade approach as election nears. He now remembers the promise he made during his presidential election campaign: if I don't give you steady electricity, don't vote for me for second term.
Was Nigeria not created in 1914 for people in it to die out gradually? Despite the turmoil in Nigeria, the creators of Nigeria still POLICE the country to remain one .
But Boko Haram says it's fighting for a country to be governed with Sharia criminal laws, the same unconstitutional Sharia criminal laws adopted unilaterally by the political and religious leaders in the far north Nigeria states beginning 1999. If the now called 12 Sharia states in far northern Nigeria are not accorded Islamic Republic of Arewa to be governed with Sharia criminal laws, there's no end to the Terrorist activities in Nigeria.
Vice President Kashim Shettima has stirred fresh political debate after declaring that Nigeria’s presidency cannot be attained through coercion, while also suggesting that there are more qualified leaders from the South-East than Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
Speaking on the country’s political climate, Shettima stressed the importance of inclusivity and consensus-building in a diverse nation like Nigeria. According to him, leadership must be built on trust and broad national acceptance rather than pressure tactics.
“In a multi-ethnic, multi-religious politics like ours, nobody can bulldoze his way to power through deceit, intimidation, threats or blackmail,” he said. “You get to power by building bridges and reaching out.”
The Vice President, however, expressed support for the emergence of a president from the South-East, describing it as a potential step toward healing longstanding historical divisions dating back to the civil war.
“I am for the emergence of a Nigerian president of South-Eastern extraction to heal the wounds of the civil war,” Shettima noted, though he criticized what he described as certain confrontational approaches adopted by some political actors from the region.
His remarks took a more direct turn when he asserted that the South-East has individuals he considers more qualified for the presidency than Obi, referring to the former Anambra State governor in pointed terms.
Shettima highlighted former Imo State Governor Rochas Okorocha as one such figure, praising his national reach and political experience across different regions of the country. He also commended former Ebonyi State Governor David Umahi for his infrastructural record, describing him as one of the most effective leaders to have emerged from the South-East.
Drawing from Nigeria’s political history, the Vice President emphasized the role of grassroots mobilization and alliances in achieving electoral success. He referenced the late Shehu Musa Yar’Adua’s strategy of building nationwide support networks, underscoring that political victories are often determined by coalition-building rather than regional popularity.
Shettima’s comments are expected to generate reactions across the political spectrum, particularly among supporters of Peter Obi, who remains a prominent opposition figure with strong backing among young voters and urban populations.
Political observers say the statement may also signal early positioning ahead of the 2027 general elections, as conversations around power rotation and regional representation continue to shape Nigeria’s political discourse.
As debates intensify, Shettima’s remarks have once again brought to the fore the complex dynamics of leadership, regional equity, and political strategy in Africa’s most populous nation.
Nigeria has been ruled by the "trusted" ones, by the ones who "built bridges."
But today Nigeria is in a mess.
Some people like Shettima continue to invent all sorts of clauses to consolidate ethnoreligious bigotry in the choice of apex political leadership of Nigeria.
As if fowls were killed. If they don't value human life in the Sharia states anymore, give them what they want: an Islamic country governed by sharia criminal justice system. Terrorists will disappear.
He talked about EVILS IN POWER IN NIGERIA. Oh yes, Jihadists in charge of government institutions. They are in sympathy with the cause of Boko Haram and its offshoots, the bandits and arned Fulani herdsmen. The three groups are fighting for a Nigeria to be governed with Sharia criminal laws, for total control of Nigeria and its mineral resources. They are fighting for the same Sharia criminal justice system adopted by the political and religious leaders in the far north of Nigeria. The Alex Babirs of the world can shout themselves hoarse, but until the US government sets out to dissolve Nigeria into more manageable countries, the Jihadists of Nigeria will not blink.
Dennisochampa: They don't love Nigeria... They just want to be in power. None of the current politicians love Nigeria.... They are all just the same evil in different forms.... As for me, I go choose the evil I think is better.. . Tinubu... At least, until we have someone better.... As for these ones...... Nah......
Saint Tinubu? In the figments of your imagination.
Let's see how one man can beat the masses. Appoint INEC Chairman, appoint court judges, budget nearly a trillion Naira for court cases about presidential election
Through this, PBAT has confirmed that he is in agreement with the objective of the Islamic terrorists. His Muslim-Muslim presidency in Nigeria nearly equally divided between Muslims and Christians also attests to the above. Little wonder Tinubu has been merciless on Mazi Nnamdi Kalu. He took Kalu to Sokoto Caliphate prison because Kalu had always berated the Caliphate for its introduction of Sharia criminal justice system in Nigeria, and the sharia gave rise to Islamic terrorism in Nigeria.
Wike had said he would have “broken his TV screen and shot” the journalist, a statement that drew widespread condemnation. - Reporter. @Reporter, you are also confused in your report here.
Are all APC Members primitive or spineless? If not, how would the APC people allow one man's ambition to serve a second presidential term blind all of them?
Putindbutt: Take your L and get out. You think because you're an American citizen, you then have the audacity to come here and potentially incite religious violence.
The current Administration does not give a hoot if you came from the hottest part of Jupiter or the coldest part of America. If you do anyhow, we throw you back to the shïthole you came from.
If dem born you and Trump well, come back to Nigeria
Thank the colonial masters who hold Nigeria one on your behalf. If not for what the reactions of the colonial masters would be if any part of Nigeria declares independence from Nigeria, no Nigerian group, or combination of Nigerian groups, can afford to stop any Nigerian group from declaring independence from dysfunctional Nigeria.
If not for the fear of what the US reactions would be, Nigeria's government would have dealt mercilessly with Alex Babir.
Islamic terrorists in Nigeria led by Boko Haram have consistently stated that they are fighting for a Nigeria to be governed with Sharia criminal laws, the same Sharia criminal laws adopted by the political and religious leaders in the 12 far north states of Nigeria. Muslim-Muslim presidency of Bola Tinubu validated the push by lovers of sharia criminal laws in Nigeria. Late President Buhari vowed in 2001 that he would not relent until Islamic sharia criminal justice system are applied in all the states of Nigeria.
The talk by Muslims in Nigeria that sharia laws are only for Muslims is deception.
jmoore: Muslim extremists will leave terrorists alone and be calling for the arrest of a Christian that is speaking against Christian genocide. And these extremists are well known APC Tinubu supporters.
The Muslim-Muslim presidency of Tinubu led to the expanded terrorist activities in Nigeria.
No person with good intentions would go for Muslim-Muslim presidency in a country nearly equally divided between Muslims and Christians.
