₦airaland Forum

By Tonye Barcanista

The position taken by Governors of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to cede the party's National Chairmanship position to northern Nigeria has once again reaffirmed the loyalty and commitment of the party to the people of Nigeria.

For avoidance of doubt, the implication of this decision is that the Presidential ticket of the party for the 2023 election shall be ceded to the southern part of the country; this decision is a right move to ensure that Nigerians from the south are given opportunity to preside over the affairs of the country at the expiration of the eight-year tenure of President Muhammadu Buhari, who hails from the north.

It is incontestable that majority of Nigerians from the south and north, have at several fora called for power shift to the southern region in 2023. This was affirmed and reaffirmed by the entire 17 Governors of the southern region during their meetings in Asaba and Enugu of Delta and Enugu states respectively.

When the leadership of PDP appointed Governor Ugwuanyi to lead its National Zoning Committee ahead of the party's National Convention, Nigerians across tribes and religions always pressed on the Governor and his committee to be people-centric by allowing the Northern part of the country to enjoy the party's National Chairmanship position, which has eluded them in the last four years, while the south is given the nod for the Presidential nomination for 2023 election.

Although the Zoning Committee is yet to make formal declaration on these issues, I am grateful that the influential Governors Forum of the party, which Governor Ugwuanyi is a bona fide member, have taken the popular position of PDP Chairmanship to north.

Therefore, I appeal to the National Zoning Committee to tow the line of the Governors Forum by concluding zoning of the party's national chairmanship seat to the north and the 2023 Presidential ticket to the south.

May I appreciate Governors Nyesom Wike (Rivers), Seyi Makinde (Oyo), Udom Emmanuel (Akwa Ibom), Ifeanyi Okowa (Delta), Douye Diri (Bayelsa), Godwin Obaseki (Edo), Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia), Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Enugu) and Samuel Ortom (Benue) for voting in favor of shift in the party's chairmanship to the north.

I equally appreciate Governors Bala Muhammed, Ahmadu Fintiri and Aminu Tambuwal of Bauchi, Adamawa and Sokoto states respectively for their show of statesmanship in accepting the majority decision of the party's Governors.

With the position of PDP Governors, I, as well as majority Nigerians, can now confirm that the party is set and well positioned to regain the Presidency in 2023 and majority seats in the States and National Assembly.

May God bless the Peoples Democratic Party

To cede PDP presidential ticket to north, some northern PDP politicians started the history of political leadership of Nigeria from 1999, but discounted the fact that north has led Nigeria for about 70% of the years Nigeria exists as an independent country.

North used its military dictators to restructure Nigeria and proliferated new states and accruing legislative seats and electoral prowess to the old ONE northern region of Nigeria, but allowed only 17 states, lesser legislative seats and lesser electoral prowess in the TWO southern regions of Nigeria.

Land mass or population was wrongly used as criterion to proliferate the states in the old northern region.
But fact is that no country formed by different regions ever used land mass or population as criterion to proliferate new federating units in the area with larger land mass or population, except Nigeria.
North, east and west regions formed independent Nigeria in 1960.
There should have been more states in the two southern regions than in the one northern region.

Enter Democratic governance, north starts to use its advantages from state creation to lord it over the south in Nigeria’s political process.

Whenever the south asks for political restructuring of Nigeria democratically, north tells the south to come to the National Assembly for political restructuring, knowing full well that the National Assembly is overpopulated by northern legislators drawn from the excess number of states proliferated in the northern region.

Fact is that it’s the turn of the south to present a successor to PMB through rotation of the presidency between north and south. Rotation of the presidency is necessitated by the skewed and lopsided political structure of Nigeria created by northern soldiers to favor north.

IPOB kidnapped another one

Here comes one of the paid propagandists.
Next: you ask for armed forces to be drafted to the place in search of IPOB people. The soldiers shall end up killing more innocent civilians and destroy businesses and private residences in the place.

Dshocker:
The way things are going right now in Nigeria,one will no other option that to relocate to another country,even if it's in Africa....Am not sure i will be travelling for christmas this year.

A country of unitary government system like Nigeria where the federal government is unable to provide security with the law enforcement agencies it commands, is a FAILED country. Wait for propagandists to start to shift blames and blackmail on the separatists out here.

Maxymilliano:
Is this not a madness or foolishness? Senate is begging a president to declare people terrorist, what happened to impeachment when it is clear the man has failed in all ramifications ?

This is worst National Assembly ever since 1999

Impeach PMB? That’s not going to be possible considering the ethnoreligious bigotry of far northern Nigeria where states were proliferated with accruing excess number of legislative seats, and where political and religious leaders unanimously adopted unconstitutional Islamic Sharia criminal justice system between 1999-2001.
PMB stands with his vow of 2001 to have Islamic Sharia criminal justice system be applied to all the states of Nigeria.

But bandits and Boko Haram with armed Fulani herdsmen are fighting for a Nigeria to be governed with Islamic Sharia criminal justice system.

And Muhammadu Buhari vowed before a large crowd of Moslems in Kaduna in 2001 that he would not stop fighting until Islamic Sharia criminal justice system is applied in all the states of Nigeria.

So how do the legislators expect PMB to brand bandits as terrorists?

Gandollar:
Even if Obama becomes president here, he will fail!

The current structure is set up to make anyone fail. But those benefitting most would never allow for a turnaround.

It is therefore pertinent that those who want a better future should demand for it.

An Obama from the south of Nigeria can’t even think of contesting for president in Nigeria. If he does, he will fail because of the skewed and lopsided political structure of 19 states + Abuja in one northern region but only 17 states in the old two southern regions. He can only win if northern Nigeria’s politicians are not interested in supporting any northerner for presidential election.

The political structure of 36 states and Abuja created by northern soldiers makes Nigeria a huge fraud. Because land mass or population is never used as criterion to proliferate too many states in an area with larger land mass or population, in a country formed by different regions.
There should have been more states in the two southern regions than in the one northern region.

As if Buhari can understand what you mean.

He is the luckiest human being on earth.

But in 2001, Muhammadu Buhari vowed before a large crowd of Moslems in Kaduna that he would not stop fighting until Islamic Sharia criminal laws are used in all the states of Nigeria.

El-Zakazi is confirming the desire of the political and religious leaders in the 12 northern sharia states of Nigeria who adopted unconstitutional Islamic Sharia criminal laws between 1999-2001. Boko Haram which emerged shortly after the adoption of Islamic Sharia criminal laws says it is fighting for a Nigeria to be governed with Islamic Sharia criminal justice system. Just like the Taliban in Afghanistan.

It’s now left for the so-called leaders of the southern regions to pull their regions out of Nigeria. Waiting for 2023 shall bring more disaster and deaths in Nigeria.

Anambra politicians, look at Imo state since 2013 Imo state became APC state till today.

Practically no meaningful development in Imo state since then. Not even good roads or pipe borne water in Imo state.

How can Anambra politicians not eschew bribe money from Abuja and save Anambra people the type of bitterness that has been going on in Imo state?

Fulani was part of the old Songhai Empire.
Songhai used craft, govt instruments and raw political conquests to expand Songhai Empire.


Ndi Anambra are falling into the ditch of the Fulani struggle for an Islamic Republic of Nigeria to be governed with Islamic Sharia criminal justice system.

Gandollar:
But you know the context he means.

Problem is when we as citizens do our part, which is mostly intelligence gathering and pass to the government for action, the government turns around to expose the source of their information to the bad guy and jeopardize my life.

There's a lot to be done by government first, before enlisting the support of the masses.

It’s only a good government in a normal country that can galvanize civil society to supply information to law enforcement agencies to provide security for all.
You are faced with a FAILED country and FAILED government. It’s no point expecting civil society in Nigeria to become informants to the law enforcement agencies, before security forces can play their role of securing the citizens.

“Security must not be left at the hands of government.” —— Goodluck Jonathan.

Gerring out of here. Nigeria’s politicians are polluting the globe with misspeaks.

But is GEJ campaigning to return to Aso Rock again?
If he wins, hopefully he will not chicken out again after a slight threat from opponents.

If OBJ was GEJ in Aso Rock, PMB would not have been qualified to contest the 2015 presidential election.

That's a shotgun wound. Any idiot can get a shotgun.

Shotgun wound? There are many devil’s advocates in Nigeria.

What happens to the killers of other innocent civilians? They go unpunished?

May God strengthen Ipob lunatics to continue their praise worthy acts in the East

A parasite entertaining himself.

Your political and religious leaders in the 12 sharia states fetched you madness in the north through their adoption of Islamic Sharia criminal justice system.
They now extend the madness to the east.

danot1030:
Have you seen the weapons carried by the Niger Delta militant groups, the terrorist in the north or the criminals in the East?

Swear, have you seen any Igbo separatists groups with weapons, talk less, with such heavy weapon that tore off the late doctor’s face? Stop relying on hear say about IPOB.

Bagehot:
It seems every Easterner is behind IPOB now . . . but for those who haven't considered the aftermath with some trepidation, this is pretty much how 'The Troubles' started in Northern Ireland. The more radical members of the movement who would typically tend to be people somewhat socialized in violence, would overtake the group, and become uncontrollable. In the quest for their region's autonomy, they would happily explore opportunities to explore their blood-lust.

IRA was asking for reunification of Northern Ireland to main Ireland, not for autonomy for Northern Ireland; though it eventually got autonomy from GB.
IRA did not wantonly kill Irish people it wanted to liberate.

So how did you expect IPOB to be killing Igbos it wants to liberate from dysfunctional Nigeria?
And when is Nigeria giving autonomy to the east to neutralize the separatists from the east; instead of Nigeria doing all sorts of heinous attacks and propaganda of falsehood against the east?

danot1030:
Blaming DSS for the wanton killing in the South East by the Igbos has become a default propaganda to blackmail the DSS and the government but we are not buying it.

Did you not see the type of devastating tearing apart of the late doctor’s face?

Such a powerful weapon could not have come from common ordinary criminals.

Afunanya, an Igbo that’s used to respond.

When army kills Igbos in Igbo land, an Igbo spokesman is used to respond.

Keep supporting evils until it gets directly to ur immediate family then you will feel/understands the pains of the evil ur terror group is causing to those who don't subscribe to ur imaginary country and her evilness

No word for a parasite.

A nation in war with herself can't stand!!!!!

Islamic terrorists with their sympathizers for a Nigeria to be governed with Islamic Sharia criminal laws, and their online propagandists, must face the judgment of Karma before long.
Continue to entertain yourself.

Before long, they shall send armed forces of Nigeria to the scene to kill more innocent civilians in pretext of searching for IPOB people.

How to fight a Jihad using government institutions and terrorists.

They beheaded a supposed innocent Hausa man and said no election in Anambra state. Objective: to drop their usual propaganda of falsehood that IPOB separatists who talk about no election in Anambra state are behind the killing.


In a developed country where trained investigators abound, it’s quite easy to understand that the killers have no connection to IPOB people.

The same old campaign of Islamic terrorists instigated by their sympathizers for a Nigeria to be governed with Islamic Sharia criminal justice system.

jpworld:
There.has been massive war in the north. Buhari need to rescue south east immediately.

Nigeria cannot afford to have double terrorism in different regions. It will be too expensive to deal with.

State of emergency is welcome development. My opinion, if you don't like it hug transformer. Anu nkita

Once again, go and borrow more sense. State of emergency in the east will bring about more killings and total crippling of economic activities in the east, extended to most of the south.
The insecurity in the southeast was initiated by the sympathizers for Islamic Republic of Nigeria.
Rescue the north you said has been on massive war first, if state of emergency is a tool to stop the war in the north.

MelesZenawi:
Maybe you will be the next to be mowed down by Ipobs.

There is a saying that if it hasn't happened to you, u won't feel the pain of what others are passing through.

You think by calling herdsmen you will gather sympathy to gruesome murder perpetuated by Ipobs just under 2 days 10 person's were killed.

Umuazi Aba drive through to just waste people's lives in anambra state.


Broad daylight killing is what these terrorists are distancing themselves from.

On a single day Umuazi Aba (Indigenes of Aba Murdered 7 souls in Anambra state.)


EARLIER Watching the video below of unknown Gunmen (IPOB) in Onitsha , you will hear clearly and stated that it was Umuazi Aba driving down to maim souls.




https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsySuYTI26o

Same day they killed Seven different people including Dora Akunyili husband making it 8.

So it is no coincidence that they were in onitsha and same days Eight souls were lost.

Aiding and abetting the acts of terrorist fighters fighting for a Nigeria to be governed with Islamic Sharia criminal justice system has been your trade on NL. The shooters in your video were not known by the passersby you believed were hailing the gunmen.
Invaders of Anambra state must be fished out. Igbos can’t invade Anambra state their home.
Your propaganda of falsehood is notorious on the social media.

Gov Obiano is one of the few people who understand that killer squads of ISWAP/Boko Haram/Fulani herdsmen had since been unleashed on Igbo land where they use every sophisticated method and social media propaganda to incriminate IPOB as the killers.


How on earth would IPOB be killing Igbos? Igbos value human life more than those who adopted Islamic Sharia criminal justice system in Nigeria.

WaffenSS:
They ought to just nuke the East.

That region has been nothing but cancer to Nigeria.

Heir Hitler of Nigeria?

See how your respondents saw you in your Hushpuppy post on NL.

jpworld:
Must reno politicize everything? If curfew or state of emergency is declared, thats what south east deserve now.

Enough is enough from IPOB

Go borrow more sense. IPOB’s has not been killing Igbos.

How come state of emergency has not been declared in the NE, NW, and NC regions where Islamic terrorists have been killing civilians all the years?

PrinceOfLagos:
If that will bring back sanity in the region, then it's welcomed even though the move look suspicious

It will rather generate more insecurity in the SE, and by extension, to most of the south, if PMB imposes state of emergency upon the SE.

In any case, that is what the ISWAP/Boko Haram fighters killing innocent civilians in the east, were meant to provoke for the interest of those who are using government institutions to fight Jihad in the southeast.
If anyone tells you that Igbos are killing Igbos because of politics or sit at home order, don’t believe that.
