Calm than, you're getting to the point where you'll say over your dead body.

Igbos will always be the most prosperous nationality inspite of whatever Nigeria throws.

For you to say you'd vote Shekau instead of voting an Igbo man tells you the general hate and fear if the Igbo man but I can assure you, it will happen soon. Let me see if you'd kill yourself once that happens

GreatGod906:
who cares about igbo presidency?
D so called wise man that knows nobody will vote him,u yourself know automatically that if d pdp u served for 22 years field igbo n APC field shekau u know people will prefer to vote shekau.

Don't even think APC will look at your side after hating them for complete 7 years and let me burst your brain,pdp will never field an igbo man as President n they won't even filed an igbo man as vp,it's going to atiku/wike n that's y they are deceiving d igbos that atiku will use only 4 years just to make them vote.

See ehn,igbos are d least tribe that can win election at federal level in Nigeria, u people that can even decide to sit at home during election, do u think any serious party will risk it?

Mr common sense nothing for u

That's like saying we only recognize 2+2=5, that's a lie!

There are 6 zones and zoning is to rotate power among these zones! If you do North and South, you've defeated the purpose of power rotation because you'd effectively swing power between NW and SW under the guise of North and South. Have you wondered why the NE, NC have not ruled for long, because the NW cheat them under the umbrella on North

obembet:
Keep zone to your self... We only recognize North and South

Even if 100% goes to pdp, who was PDP presidential candidate? Not a Northerner?

When you're in a hole, stop digging!

hopexter:
It’s cos you’re not wise. Didn’t you see me mention 70% of Igbos vote went to PDP? Wasn’t that Atiku who is from the North? You want me to expatiate every details of it to your daft ears? I’m not your teacher

Nah...don't make that mistake again, always learn from your mistake.

Nigerians said anybody but GEJ so they landed with Bubu, they most disastrous president in the history of this country

Homiesjinxbank:
Anybody but Tinubu

There is nothing like North and South. There are 6 geopolitical zones

obembet:
We don't need another Northerners, we want good candidate from south.

Your comment is straightforward, stop masking stupidity with laughing emoji

It's pure stupidity to say that because Igbos generally did not vote for Bubu that means Igbos did not vote for North. Is Atiku not from the North? Yeye dey smell

hopexter:
It’s obvious you have comprehension issues. Read my comment again and don’t be daft

All of a sudden you've started speaking from the other side of your mouth. Go through the thread and see how Yorubas have been saying they won't support the Igbos for presidency because they've been insulting other tribes. The moment I mentioned how you happily vote for Fulani killers, you shifted to doing your own thing.

If Igbos does not get the presidency, the North gets it. But it will be on SW if power remains in the North!

aribisala0:
I never said I won't vote for Eboes for that reason, You are lying.

. How the Eboes vote is not Yoruba business and I think it should be vice versa

I presume both vote on their interpretation of self interest and that should be respected
I have seen no contemporaneous historical record of Yoruba lamenting Eboe choices or even talking about what Eboes cook in their political kitchen
Do the same be mature. Do what you will do with dignity not childish tantrums

Yoruba are not even asking you to vote for them so stay on your lane.

To be clear that is the political relationship that exists between us (dey your lane politics) .
Let us continue to do that in peace

You never supported Abiola
Did anyone call you out ?
Did Obasanjo maltreat you? You had Soludo, Anyim, Uba, Iweala, Akunyuli, Ezekwesili all given the opportunity to excel
Jonathan came in and then this
https://www.nairaland.com/745731/yoruba-marginalization-elders-met-jonathan
Look in the mirror and stop playing victim
Also this is the most important
Stop this habit of lying without remorse .
If Nigeria was a family or association of persons How would you rate your behaviour and likeability?

You cannot insist on your way a smart tree bends when the storm is fierce a rigid tree breaks. Do what you have to do and stop parroting that you will vote Fulani if we don't support you. Our response we would be shocked if you do not vote Fulani. That is what you always do not out of ideology but always wanting to be at the centre . You miscalculated in 2015. Accept that and move on. Your legendary "stronghead" will change NOTHING

There is no system with working brains that has witnessed the last 4 years that would install an Ibo president in 2023 . You should know this and plan for this like realistic adults.

If you read well and comprehend what you read, you'd know that Ohaneze was quoting Pa Adebanjo verbatim

gawu1:
“We are talking about people who want Nigeria to stay together. How can anybody who loves this country talk of the Presidency coming to the South West in 2023? Why should you exclude the South East? Is South East not part of Nigeria? “South West has had, South South has had, the North has had, why exclude the South East if you want them to be there? That is the point”.
The above contained all the hypocrisy bedevilling the country. For emphasis sake, the oheneze wants Nigerians to believe that we have one north and three souths. Really! What about north east and North Central? If one may ask, are they not geopolitical regions on their own anymore?
The real truth is that if south east are laying claim to presidency base the fact presented in epistle above, then the north east and North Central have right too to demand for the zoning of the position to their own regions. That is, Atiku who is from North east and who by his actions is interested in the position is as qualified as any south easterner to contest for the position comes 2023
The Igbos recent tactics to blackmail Buhari to support their 2023 aspiration will not work because he owes them not obligation that will have obliged him to succumb to that. Time without number he has told his fellow party Stewart that he is not going to interfere in the party's choice of who will succeed him; and base on happening so far he is living up to that. It is not too late for oheneze to go round and befriends people that matters and will be handy in both APC and PDP primaries if really they want an igbo present.
Las Las, oheneze should stop disturbing APC over who the party may give it tick to, but focus on PDP, their darling party they have served and have been serving for over 20 solid years.

He said 1999, you're talking 2015. Don't you know the difference?

Eniitan19:
APC won all the SW states except Ekiti in 2015

Are you not wise? Without both parties zoning their ticket to the East, either party that does it, do so in vain!

If the intention is to achieve Igbo presidency,
then it has to be both parties. Isn't this commonsense?

GreatGod906:
I wrote trust issues clearly there n u are still asking me y I am scared of igbo presidency, it's like u ain't reading this thing but just replying.wait do u think is individual romance that is considered when party is zoning?

It is general acceptability bro

Do igbos like APC?
Imagine ikpeazu is d worst governor in d south but nobody cares, they are only after hope uzodinma. Abia,enugu and anambra are relatively peaceful n igbos really don't care about whatever d governors do but imo n ebonyi that is APC is their problem.

Wait I can't believe u want apc6u hated for 7 years to give u what pdp u served for 22 years can't give u

Let these tribes you mentioned speak for themselves. We're talking of the major ethnic group

Walkee:
when will Urhobo, igala, Bini, kanuri etc have their own presidents? Or is it only Igbos that have never been president? Azikiwe and Ironsi sef have ruled. All these it's our turn blablabla na complete rubbish. It's nobody's turn. Buhari has been contesting since 2003 he just didn't win, Atiku will most likely contest again this year. It is high time we stopped being delusional. It's nobody's turn

Igbo land is bigger than the 5 SE states.

Perhaps 2023 will bring the leadership of Igbos to the realization that there's nothing for them in Nigeria.

aribisala0:
You can push through a resolution in all the 5 SE state Houses of Assembly for a start.

If you are going to get Biafra peacefully it is not a 4 year project .

First you have to demonstrate that in Eboeland Biafra is the will of the majority

It is ONLY AFTER that is done that you approach Nigerians for a referendum

All these We NO GO GREE TACTICS will only result in FENDI AND HANDCUFF

Again, you're so naive. Do you know ow the amount of threat the SW did after June 12 saga? The West was calling for Yoruba nation, Nadeco was doing their thing. The North conceded to West because they know the East is always ready to leave this contraption

Philistine:
Then igbos should go and aligned for 2023 election. Stop blackmailing and threatening the candidates from other regions to step down for you.

Again, you think the broke Obj that came out of prison was able to mobilise resources to win 1999 PDP primary and subsequent election even though SW did not vote for him?

The North chose him for atonement for June 12. The North should also choose an Igbo candidate for atonement for years of marginalization

Philistine:
You are the one that is politically stupid. Nobody will step down for you igbos. You igbos are opportunists, you want to reap where you did not sow.

Thats why I said those are frivolous excuses. Insofar you vote for Fulanis who have been killing across Nigeria, then saying you won't vote for Igbos because of mutual insults is mischievous and laughable!

aribisala0:
You have a history of supporting Fulani the most

You never voted for Abiola
You supported Shagari TWICE

You supported Balewa TWICE

So look in the mirror and stop projecting your bias on o others

You guys are not wise!

So Bubu = North?

Where is Yaradua from? Where is Atiku from?

hopexter:
Ndigbo that didn’t vote for Buhari, which Northerner is gonna vote for them?

Imagine the percentage of votes provided by the Igbos during the 2015 election were to be returned to their candidates, would that be enough to win the presidency? 70% of south east voters support PDP but does PDP support South east?

South east needs about 30% votes from the ruling party to stand a chance but how do you get what you didn’t give to the ruling party?

Honestly, in as much as I would want a presidency from South east, the possibility of that happening is almost Zero which is very sad.

All these are frivolous excuses insofar you vote for Fulanis that has been killing across Nigeria.

GreatGod906:
nobody gives power to someone they don't trust,how will u expect any sane person to give power to someone that hates him?

U hate yorubas
U hate Muslims
U hate northerners
U call the country zoo
U call your fellow citizens animals and u expect those same people to vote for u.
It is madness if u believe someone u hate will give u power.

Nobody hands over the sword to his enemy.

Which useless equity?
Where was equity in 1999 when ekweme contested against obj

Where was equity in 1999 when ogbonnaya onu contested against olu falae?

U are scared to face your fellow southerners in d election cos u yourself u know nobody will vote for u,that nobody trust u is not yorubas problem now.

The way u lay your bed is d way u sleep on it,u played politics of hate and bitterness and it boomerang and u are here trying to blackmail others by shouting it's your turn.

Nigeria isn't turn by turn enterprises n if u burn down your region cos u believe u can get to power through insecurity then u are on a long thing.

Ipob have messed u up n they will still dip u into more mess b4 d election with voter apathy and sit at home.

No serious political party will field a region that can decide to seat at home on election day

Those contests you see are done to fulfill all righteousness, the candidates were already known before the primaries.

There are usually political alignment before primaries

Philistine:
Nobody stops igbos from contesting in 2023, you want the party ticket on a platter of gold, which is never going to happen. Obj and Gej contested with other regions to emerge victorious at the primaries. Why are you igbos scared of contesting with others?

So in your wisdom you think Abaribe or Igbo leaders in the red chamber has enough people to push a resolution in the NASS? You're just being mischievous

GreatGod906:
who is fighting to keep u in Nigeria?

How many of your elected leaders have talked about secession in d red chamber?
Abaribe forming ipob senator online n he can't even say anything where his voice could b heard but he's always clout chasing online

How can u have elected leaders not saying anything where it matters but u keep shouting Nigerians are hold u down,u better channel your anger n frustration to your leaders

What about the levels of killings by Fulanis across Nigeria? Does that stop you from voting them?

So other tribes don't insult Igbos?

benuejosh:
Liars! With the level of hate they portray on other tribes and ethic groups? Until they change that mentality, they are not ready for President.

So you think Obj came out of prison, was given a presidential pardon within one year, was able to mobilise resources to win the tough primary of 1999 even though he came out of prison broke? You're politically naive!

Philistine:
Presidency was not zoned to the south west in 1999, enough of the lies. South west contested the primaries with the bigwigs from other region. Same is expected from south east in 2023, they should throw their hat in the ring. No Automatic ticket for any region, either north or south. Nobody will step down for any region, the same way nobody stepped down for Obasanjo at the 1998 PDP primaries in jos.

You don't need spiritual eyes to know this, Northerners won't vote for Wike

Niger Delta oil money, I nor blame you. If the North wasn't connected to the South, there won't be resources for this nonsense. Ask Niger Republic!

Who made Abacha head of state? Yeye dey smell!

Na God write the list? People who think they're all in all today might be nobody tomorrow!

tutudesz:
The Lagos State Governor's, Senators, House of Representatives and Assembly, list to 2051 if your name no dey that list, no buy form O!!

You're sleeping on top bicycle! The only thing that can save Lagos as a Yoruba state is Biafra!

Igbos are gradually but surely increasing their stake and percentage in Lagos!

flokii:
This right here was Awolowo's view which infact is the view of most of us that have croseed the Western borders to North, East and South.
Reason I keep hammering it that Yorubas are dulling and too docile for my liking. Igbos no suppose get level where any Yoruba man is standing and I mean it.

The Igbos wanted to and still want to take Lagos for this singular reason you pointed out which will never happen. Not in this lifetime.

For Equity and justice, it's SE or NE or NC turn!

Was Ekwueme not treated differently? Was Shagari not given house arrest while Ekwueme sent to prison even when he wasn't the head of government?

You had to go to 1979 to look for when an Igbo man was VP? Meanwhile that was done because of the civil war to give Igbos sense of belonging...since then they've sworn to marginalize the Igbos esp as they're becoming self prosperous

obynzo:
But Shagari's VP was Ekwueme and we know he wasn't Yoruba. you kids just exhibit to the whole world how dense you are

Don't. You can learn it on your own if you're a technical person.

Igbos are everywhere in Nigeria, they love all tribes atleast they're indifferent. Buy other envy Igbos, what others do and get away with it, if Igbos do half, it would be exaggerated

I'm talking about general prosperity, you counting few individuals!

asanausana91:
show us your prosperity during the16 years of PDP. I could remember Innocent chukwuma telling whole world that he had never been patronized the way buhari government do.
Even air peace owner onyeama said the same thing, so which prosperity are you talking about?
You also claim that other tribe hate you, pls can you mention only one tribe that the igbos love?

Hope is not winning reelection, he should be concern with that

Wilson212:
stop writing what you don't know .where do you think hope belongs to
