nothing like desperados, go and read the electoral act . Every citizen of nigeria by birth has the constitutional rights to contest any elective office anywhere in nigeria. Senate grace folashede bent was senator representing adamawa state and she's from osun state.

And you think I don't know?

HoR in Lagos state, governor hopeful in Kogi state. Desperados beget desperados.

danilmo:
The moment u sigh away from the realityc, this ur plenty explanation will always be the result. U and I know the stance of APC in SE to b almost zero, free and fair APC can't win anything currently and it's widely known. Umahi the best SE gov. Is hated because he joined APC, no b so?

And what is ibo youth after on media? Calling the party Jan-jaweed , insult party elders like Tinubu the one who can as well step down and front ibo and there is nothing other party member can do abt it, that is the same man u called names, the only problem Tinubu is having right now is looking for a way to get the percentage of SE vote from somewhere else, I think he doesn't care abt SE again, u guys have show him no acceptance despite how he allowed ur region stay in Lagos.

2023, like it or not Tinubu has the highest percentage say on who is becoming the next president, if he make a decision to run himself, worst is he will lost and PDP win, but if he choose not to run and support Osinbanjo, forget nobody is coming close to the margin.

So 2023 is base on the decision of Tinubu but una no even fit meet am, beg am, collaborate rather u prefer beating abt the bush.

Who dey joke here.

@ Tinubu allowed Igbos stay in Lagos. My friend, you don't know how big Lagos is.
Based on you political permutations, you're just a neophyte and even Tinubu will tell you that if you take this bullcrap to him.
Nonsense

You're 'NOBODY' are good enough, you're talking about Biafra.

Did you see national there or you decided to display your illiteracy?

'National'? That has to do with tribe. Nigeria is not a nation. You see you are the illiterate?

abbasajao:
These people are unpopular and cannot influence decisions in National politics.

They're popular in their zone. and not your zone.

Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi (born 27 May 1965) is a Nigerian politician who is currently serving as the Minister of Transportation in the cabinet of President Muhammadu Buhari. He previously served in oil-rich Rivers State as Governor of Rivers State from 2007 to 2015 and Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly from 1999 to 2007.

"You South South, just like South East will not reap where you didn't sow"- South West APC

ayindejimmy:
If Apc dares to choose their president from the East. Pdp go certainly go to the North.
And that will be the end.

The North can't vote any Easterner now. Ipobs had made sure of that.

So what happened to the love of the party? So everyone is after their tribe and region but that of South East is sin?
Anyway, our target is PDP and APC to have candidates from the East.

[quote author=Dapson73 post=108847000][/quote]You read the book "she stoops to conquer"?

dele1727:

so in short,,,,, You want the APC to waste their Ticket because its the igbos turn to lead
You want a dying horse to give you their ticket just because its you
This people will not kill some one

What's funny?

You all agreed that South East is inconsequential in number of votes. Why not choose this person from South East and use the South West and northern votes to put him in power?
How can inconsequential zone determine the winner of election now?
Lemme break it down
SE 1000 voters
SW 2000 voters
SS 1500 voters
North 5000 voters
APC give South East ticket
PDP give South East ticket
Since SW love APC and want to see APC in Aso Rock, vote for APC candidate from South East.
The north do the same. That gives you 7000 votes against 2500 of SE and SS for PDP candidate.
In fact, this president from South East will be eternally loyal to SW and north because they actually made him president and not his Igbo tribe.
How is this so difficult?
I'm beginning to see it's not the love for APC that is driving some of you in South West. It is greed and selfishness.

ayindejimmy:
Ngige was governor
Onuh was a party leader
Moghalu was a CBN vice

We are talking about president here not state governor.
Every party's main goal is to win no matter who they field.
Right now, thanks to Ipob, the East has bad blood with North and SW. That's not good for politics

Moghalu you never knew is the one I'm referring not the CBN dep gov.

tamdun:
What is the contribution of those people u mentioned to apc? Their people won't vote for them and hates them simply because they are in apc, hope u still remember that apc got less than 5% in SE during the election, would u zone the presidency to such region, until those people make significant contribution to apc, nothing for South East

Please shut up and focus on the bone of contention.

NwaforIgbo:
There's a very big difference between low self esteem and diplomacy.

I'm actually defending him but at the same; he sounds so beggarly that it's beginning to look like helplessness

kingawothefirst:
Not at all, I’m impressed actually, wish your people would follow you and Umahi’s lead and play politics the right way.

You didn’t have to bring Osinbajo into it your argument that’s what we call a strawman fallacy.

Thank you for the compliment but no thanks for thinking only myself and Umahi know politics in Great Igbo tribe. This is actually laughable.
Osibanjo? We're only comparing notes. The wrong word(desperation) was used and there's need to make the record straight. So I showed a good example of desperation.

kingawothefirst:
Lol you guys are very funny, what does this have to do with Osinbajo? Opposition is part of politics, allow me to have an opposing view in peace if you really wanna play politics.

Did I hit a nerve? Take it easy next time

Zandena:
Ngige has been sowing since ACN was a party, then APC
Rochas was a foundational member of APC representing APGA faction;
Ogbonaya Onuh has been sowing for long and was a foundational figure of APC fronting the ANPP ;
Moghalu has never been a member of APC, therefore let him go to where he has sowed
Let south east continue to sow in APC till when their sowing is matured enough like they did in PDP!
South east cannot be trusted with power now most especially what they are known for of betrayal and not keeping to agreements !

I little crash course on politics.
Moghalu was ANPP guber candidate in Anambra in 2003 when Buhari was ANPP presidential candidate. I always know some of you were born in early 2000 and that's why it's difficult to discuss politics with you.
Talk about betrayal:
Which politician in SE has betrayed Nigeria?
But Buhari in 1985 supported Niger Republic to produce AU Secretary against Nigeria. And it's in record as the first and only time a president betrayed his country openly. Did it stop you from voting him?
Tinubu has one time said "I don't believe in one Nigeria". Is that a betrayal? Did it stop OBJ from being president?
Isaac Adaka Boro fought Nigeria even before civil war: did it stop GEJ?
Boko Haram have been fighting Nigeria: did it stop north from being president?
Igboho is fighting Nigeria: did it stop Tinubu from seeking election?
IPOB is fighting Nigeria: it will not stop Igbos from seeking to be president.
Deal with it.
I nukwa betrayal

InHeaven:
Remember,

IGBO BOWS TO NO ONE


ONLY slaves do that. Can we now say Igbos eat their vomit?
They are now slave?

And begging is bowing down? You wasted your school fees on bet9ja and now see the result

kingawothefirst:
Not with the desperation your people are showing, no it’s not part of politics.

Talking about desperation: Osibanjo team have been in frenzy because of soothing words of IBB. The even said "IBB endorsed Osibanjo". There's no desperation more than blackmail.
What Igbo leaders are doing is politics of persuasion. Marketing themselves to other Nigerians.
And I thought that's what you people wanted them to do? Now you're not comfortable they're doing it because you thought they couldn't be bold enough to beg for consideration.
Those in APC are using that method.
Have you heard those in PDP begging? Those ones know their trade.

johnmartus:
What a mockery so this people still eyeing on the presidency. So APC should give you ticket you can't reap where you are not sow.

I know APC is a dying horse, but talking about 'reaping where you didn't sow':
where did Ngige sow?
Where did Rochas sow?
Where did Ogbonnaya Onuh sow?
Where did Moghalu sow?
Where did Imo state sow?
I can go on and on.
I'm waiting...

Abdul05:
The ibo being what they are always fought shy of the truth...

The only way to get up there is politics not by begging the north

And you think begging is not part of politics?

Dave Umahi is actually a performer but has low self esteem.
The way he talks at every turn will leave one to think he's hypocrite. You don't need to inform people about your nationality.
How can a man go about telling people that he is a man. People know you're a man.
The more you tell people you're a man, at point they will start looking to see if truly you are a man.
I'm an Igbo man
A Nigerian. I've not said this more than 2X in May be 10 years.
Nonsense

helinues:
We are watching as things unfold

Quit watching because it was obvious from the word go.
I'm an Igbo man and I lived in South East, involved in regional politics and know what politicians from my tribe can do.
It's quite painful that these things are happening in Imo state but I would've happened with any other governor in the state. The politicians over there are very confrontational and it doesn't help their course.
I hope situation improves

ivolt:
Efulefu denialists.
They will blame DSS and herdsmen in the morning and blame politicians in the evening.
SMH

Some of you are just wired to be stupid. I strongly believe this is not how your parents want to be, but you choose to live an unfortunate life.

The politics of Imo state got soured When APC stopped Rochas Okorocha from fielding his son-in-law as the candidate of the party.

Since then, the following has happened:

Ahmed Gulak death: Gulak was the executioner of that coup de tat against Rochas dynasty. Today he is no more.
IPOB/ESN blamed.

Death of traditional rulers and security officers are also fallout of this political fight.
IPOB/ESN blamed.

IPOB/ESN blackmailed: another bad omen from Uzodimma and Rochas fight is that the two camps commit various crimes and the incompetent security, in a bid to prove IPOB is terrorist place the crimes on IPOB. When they know the perpetrators of these crimes.
Why Uche Nwosu's Could be Useful to the Security: Uche Nwosu is from Nkwerre. The majority of the crimes committed in Imo state are from that axis.
Then the cannibal case actually took place in Nkwerre, Uche Nwosu's country home.
Maybe one of the suspects has named names.
Because all I know about Imo state Politicians is that: once they take off their shirt to fight, it is going to be bloody.
Those killings have Imo state Politicians written all over them. And Hope Uzodimma will be free for now because he's the governor.
I know them too well.

ThinkSmarter:
please what do you mean by first 11?

The best.

Igboid:
You are not okay.
If you are, you wouldn't be writing such rubbish about a people your own people are not better than.

You still want to expose your lunacy? Ok go ahead.

SirBunky85:
abaribe may be the best for your family,not for my own Abia

Do you have voters card? Hope you live in Abia state and not PH or Lagos?

Igboid:
Stop writing rubbish.
What is the meaning of the above rubbish?
Are you okay at all?

Please, except those around you know you are untrained. Don't let more people to know; it's an indictment on your parents

Jessyjeff:
Not again! The one that happened to Ebeano is still fresh in people's minds. Hopefully, the store has a full insurance coverage.

Trust Peter Obi on that.

This is tragic. Chai

I wish it will happen but I'm not seeing it. Reason is zoning in Abia will see another governor coming from Abriba axis.
Abaribe and the current governor are from the same area. So it looks so difficult.
However, this is the best bet for PDP and South East.
We lack men in South East. I remember in 1999, the senators we sent to Abuja were so versed and bold, that during midterm report, Prof Osunbor of Edo state came 1st while Okadigbo and Mike Ajegbo (both from Anambra) came 2nd and 3rd. Today, I don't know South East senators except Abaribe.
I'm governors, we had governors in Ngige, Peter Obi, Rochas, Sullivan, Sam Egwu, Orji Kanu, Nnamani but played national politics even while being governors.
I can't see these bunch muster those clout. Imagine Fayemi, Yahaya Bello, Wike, Okowa playing national politics and just Umahi is speaking in the East. This is shameful.
I hope Abaribe succeeds, I'm also campaigning for Ekweremadu and it's gaining momentum. In Anambra, Soludo is already there. While praying for Ihedioha in Imo state and hopefully, Ebonyi state bring their first 11.

omenkaLives:
It is yet to be seen whether or not they'd understand this.

Is there anything wrong with that? The South East is in need of leaders who have seen it all. Imagine a region without a governor With national reckoning.
Didn't you see Peter Obi, Rochas were governors, the made headlines when APC was formed. Currently, no governor is in that mould except maybe Umahi.
So if Soludo holds sway in Anambra, Ekweremadu coming through Enugu and Abaribe in Abia, then they are good to go.
You can say what you want to say, but it's best option for South East.
