I'd say we scrap zoning since we cannot respect the spirit of zoning!

Reality3080:
let every Nigerian home and abroad contest

What do u have to say again?

Then let zoning be killed, it's just pretense!

oyatz:
Northerners are contesting sir.


In reality, you can only persuade people from other zones to support you but you can NOT ban them from contesting.


Ex- Gov of Kano State , the late Abubakar Rimi was running for the presidency in 1999 under the PDP but backed out of the Primaries when he realized the the majority of the party were in support of southern presidency.

In 2003, Rimi and Barnabas Gemade contested in the PDP primaries.

In 2007, Rochas Okorocha refused to listen to the Zoning directives of the party and he contested in the Primaries ,coming second.

See how the people who say all Igbos hate Tinubu disappears from this thread!

Love is reciprocal!

Don't be smart by half. You don't want Northerners to contest because you know their population would defeat your candidate yet telling Igbos this is democracy

Reality3080:
why don't u bring out that someone then mobilise and campaign for him?

Have u forgotten that this is democracy where u can vote n b voted for n besides I believe people are free to vote for whoever they like

Y don't u campaign for your own candidate and let others do there thing too.

What is d name of that candidate u think is best for us?

Peter Obi is the best Igbo candidate, this is a fact!

OfoIgbo:
Kingsley Muoghalu is far above Peter Obi, Yemi Osibanjo, Bola Tinubu, Pius Anyim, AfDB's Adesina all put together.

The only people that may mount a worthy challenge to Muoghalu in terms of preparedness for the presidential office will be people like Charles Soludo, Festus Odimegwu, Pat Utomi, Wole Soyinka.

Of course, Pat Utomi and Wole Soyinka scaled down the ladder a little bit, as a result of their 2015 support for the current Fulani terrorist that is governing and terrorising Nigeria.

Then what are the Igbos doing in Nigeria if the rest of Nigeria don't trust them? A country divided against itself cannot progress.

helinues:
No major political party would zone it's presidency to SE.. It's more like giving the opposition free win.

And the truth is, other regions do not trust Igbo man as a president.. That's just the fact

We know the Islamic alliance between SE and SW. The presidency has to be zoned to SE or it goes to North

Reality3080:
lol

Please have u written d igbo off completely?

Y is nobody talking about an igbo president?

Even in SW, Tinubu will not get 55% of the vote. SS, Tunubu will be defeated in a landslide.

TooNoisy:
Tinubu could win! Most of you are soooo young you don't even know the constituents of Nigeria. Abiola defeated a Northerner in 1993. Obasanjo defeated Buhari in 2003. Jonathan defeated Buhari in 2011. Even Femi Gbajabiamila defeated a Northern Candidate in 2019 for the Speaker. Politics is about interests and power blocks. It's about bargaining and what is on offer.

Who told you there is a homogenous North? There are over 120 tribes in Northern Nigeria and I tell you that Tinubu will split Atiku in the North. Let's look at it by region:

1. North West - All Tinubu needs is for Buhari to raise his hand and Tinubu will roundly defeat Atiku in the North West. Tinubu will win Kano, Kaduna and Katsina because of Buhari and Ganjude's support. These are APC strongholds. He has the structure to defeat Atiku in those states. Tinubu would likely split the votes 50/50 with Atiku in the North West.

2. North East - This is Atiku stronghold and he will win the North East. They will vote for him and he will get 85% of the votes.

3. North Central - Tinubu will defeat Atiku in Kwara, Kogi, Plateau and Benue. Atiku will win Niger and Nasarawa. There are no indigenous Fulanis in the North Central so Tinubu will win 4 states. Kwara and Kogi have huge Yoruba populations. Plateau and Benue hates Fulanis. Forget about it, North Central will go to Tinubu. Tinubu will win North Central by 60/40. This is where I would prefer APC field Osinbajo. Osinbajo will use the Christian influence to even more roundly defeat an Atiku 70/30.

4. South West - Tinubu will win 85% in South West. He will win easily here.

5. South East - Should Atiku pick a Peter Obi as running mate (which will be a mistake), he will win the SE. Atiku will win by 85%. By the way, APC has 2-3 State governors in the South East so that will count.

6. South South - Tinubu will win by a small margin. Tinubu will win Edo, Cross River and Delta. Atiku will win Rivers, Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom. Again Osinbajo will be a better bet in the South South because he is Christian. Osinbajo will defeat an Atiku in the SS 65/35

Lagos is for all. Unless Biafra comes, igbos will eventually take over Lagos, give it time

DEROX:
its normal they want to control lagos (which can never happen)
2- they want a flat brain to be lagos governor
3- They have no powerful politician like tinubu

The Yorubas have vowed that Igbos will not rule this country and they wanna use their Islamic alliance with the North to achieve it. Love and hate are reciprocal. There's a reason Awolowo and Abiola never became president,
history will repeat itself. You don't know who you're dealing with. You should have let the Igbos go in 1967.

Movic1:
I don't think we are one, the Igbos would prefer a Northerner than to see a Yoruba man become the next president of this country.

Seems you nor get sense sef. Did he ask you to beat your wife?

Fred166:
My parents didn't train me to be a woman beater.

Pls Help.

Don't worry, you'll know why Igbos are feared since 1950s. History will surely repeat itself!

ThatFairGuy1:
Anything that has to do with those people's presidency should be push to JOKE SECTION.

Because Amala and ewedu skull miner, Almajiri, The Ijaw slaves and all Nigerian Muslim Terrorists are no ready to vote them.


So this guy here might be referring to #KUJE2023

STFU! It's a good thing Ohaneze expressed disappointment and dissatisfaction with this. Don't you know the Islamic alliance btw SW and North?

Icumsa45:
As an Igbo man, I am very disappointed in ohaneze. The organization has become a gathering of nincompoops. No iota of self esteem.

After you'll say Igbos insult other tribes but here you are insulting Igbo elders.

LegendHero:
Ohaneze group is a conglomerate of fools.

Let’s even say Tinubu intends to support them. This same people never cared to visit Asiwaju to solicit his support, never bothered to court him, never bother to form alliance with him.

What they did is continue to send degenerates to abuse, hate, curse, and antagonize the man and yet turn out to come and ask the person to cede his lifelong dream to them by saying it’s their turn.

Is this not a mental problem?

Including the North?

Furbish:
It is unfortunate that Nigerians, most especially, the elitist class so called are grossly mistaken on the very essence of democracy! Anyone from anywhere at any given point in time can aspire to become anything in any democratic setting. It is left to the citizenry, the voters to decide if such candidature is fit for an office or elective position.

Nigeria still have got a long way to go!

Did she mention men? She's talking to both genders

Peace081:
Broke man don suffer

Do it the morning of the second day after ovulation. If she doesn't get pregnant, do it the evening of the next day after ovulation.
If she doesn't get pregnant, do it the morning of the next day. Doing it on the day if ovulation is 50:50 chance so that's a last resort after doing the rest.

okine4real:
Fathers and Mothers. Pls ohh. Myself and my wife, we trying to have a child this year, and we want a Male child. Male Child or nothing else. In fact i just Pray this time it works because trouble FIT dey.

Now my question is, as anybody in the house every tried the method of making love to you wife on the day of her Ovulation and the sex happens to be a Male child?

I have read to much article and the one that got my attention the most was, IF YOU WANT A MALE CHILD, MAKE LOVE TO YOUR WIFE A DAY TO HER OVULATION DAY OR ON HER EXACT OVULATION DAY. Please whom have tired this method and what is the success rate? I nor get money for IVF, so dont tell me say make i go do am ohh, because i heard its not cheap.

Regards

Abeg help save this marriage.

If the do electronic collation and transmission, APC is gone from Lagos! No wonder Senator Remi Tinubu said there's no network in Lagos

Many of the guys that gave comment said their mothers suffered the most for them and I understand why they're so naive. They think the person that serve them food is automatically the provider.

You all would grow up to be treated by your children same way, then you'd know how it feels. Continue in your naivety. The life expectancy of men is low because they take the most risk to ensure everything is provided for children who couldn't see beyond ice-cream to know where it's coming from. Funny enough the females tend to appreciate their fathers more than these foolish boys

How can Biafrans be hated more in Biafra?

adamsmith914:
And you are even hated more in the next compound that you move to?

And the irony is that the egocentricity is even more dire today, ipob & Nnamdi Kanu has made the madness worse.

Election aside, these two you mentioned,
do you think they are competent enough to move Nigeria forward?

You don't just vote for your brother even though he is grossly incompetent

adamsmith914:
The ones that may stand a chance Orji Kalu & Okorocha are enemies of Ndi Igbo as characterized by ipob?

Election is not supposed to be an avenue for electing incompetent people. I would prefer Osinbajo to Rochas. Infact the only Igbo men I can vote for right now is Peter Obi or Kingsley Moghalu.

Nigeria cannot get it right by voting incompetent but popular persons to leadership

Trumann:
Okay. Mention 1 candidate from the South East capable of gathering Northern votes more than Rochas. Just one.

You've shifted the goal post! You're not sincere

Trumann:
Northerners have population. What do you Igbos have to bargain with?

But you vote for Northerner inspite of bokoharam , fulani herdsmen, bandits killing everybody?

Trumann:
[s][/s]

You are a tribalistic hypocrite. Your tears are because you can see the consequences of your stupidity staring at you in the face. You insult other Nigerians but want them to vote for you. Okay na, buy party form and come out for primaries.

So you would vote for Rochas even though he is incompetent?

Igbos cannot present Okorocha as president just because we want presidency.

Trumann:
You are a thief. When Rochas was Governor, you were part of those calling him Okoroawusa. It was you Igbos who foolishly gave him that name. Now, the entire Igboland has turned around to beg awusa for Presidency. Rochas had more sense than you idiots.

Rochas was your best candidate who could get votes everywhere in Nigeria. How did you foolish people treat him? You were slapping him just a year out of office.

Your loss, deal with it. If you want Presidency, use PDP ticket.

Igbos do not expect a gang up. Since there's already a gang up, better to leave as you can't appease all.

Trumann:
Igbos hate other Nigerians but expect others to love them. You must be very daft.

It's easier to leave than convince them to love you. Just like if you're in a compound where you're not loved, no need trying to appease them, just move to another place!

adamsmith914:
Have you ever taken time to find out why every other tribe in Nigeria hates you like you assert?

Exactly and this is why Igbos know that the rest of Nigeria hates them. Igbos will eventually leave Nigeria because this hate will be eternal

HacheNoire:
Any party that presents an Igbo candidate is already pre-doomed prior to 2023.

Cos I myself will win an election agains any Igbo man if it were just to be two of us only. I will not need to campaign as North and West will have no other option than to vote for me.

Best, it should go to the South-South, or Cameroonian or Kenyan become Nigerias president

See the way you hate those "hate filled criminals" yet NK only since is wanting to take those "hate filled criminals" away from you. How can you want what you hate?

ThatFairGuy1:
Nnamdi Kanu is not coming out any moment soon.
He'll be released 8 years time when Tinubu will be preparing to hand over mantle of leadership to another Northerner.

NOTHING those hate filled criminals can do

So who Bubu picks win? When una go get sense?

Truthisunique2:
It's possible

We are yet to really know who buhari said is his candidate

Ameachi strikes as the biggest non northern minister dear to buhari heart

Baba go slow? That couldn't handover while going for a long medical trip that eventually led to his demise? Abegi!

FunkyAlhaji2015:
President Yar'Adua did not have any political base or structure. He remains Nigeria's best president till date. What are you saying? Give a man power and he will build his structures as long as he is acceptable to the ordinary man on the street.

Nice to see you in political section after so long. I remember your use of words that impresses me. Cheers

MizMyColi:
I would pick Osinbajo too.

I understand that nobody's head in Nigeria is correct right now.

Regardless, Osinbajo and his team seem to have most of their sh*t together.

Nigeria is in a mess right now, and we need someone who can play both sides.

The goal should be to start getting certain things right first, then we can deal with the power mongers later.

I made a life decision not to have anything to do with APC because that party epitomises evil and oppression.

I'd make an exception for Osinbajo.

And please nobody should send me a private message over this post. Keep whatever you have to say here.

Despite how angry I can get over the way this country is going, I still love and uphold my heritage.

Besides, if it is good for one, it should be good for all, except some people want to be unfortunate.
