good theory,but hardly applicable because we are talking about your people here...I mean the same people that can wake up every morning realizing Ilorin is still in the hands of a caliphate is hardly far from an ironical bull's-eye if we are to go by your quite imaginative sketch of logic....we might be the beast of burden as you alluded,but going by the antecedents of your people...I would not be wrong to say you are the grass upon which we trample on, in the pyramid scheme of control you are beneath the mule...Lagos is just another variable factor that is up for grabs if spotted by willing tools.

Pygymy, i did not say you might be beast of burden...

i said "you are a beast of burden...a mule"!! Get it right!

Just like ragtag boko haram has defeated Nigerian Army in NE

They defeated Ihejirika.
put a Yoruba there as Chief of Army Staff and watch Shekau get his freaking turban tucked up deep in his a@ss

Qelvin:
dimwit, you keep justifying that name with your slow thinking...when I implied his father was unknown to him according to his book,can't your little brain accommodate the very possibility that he learned everything about his father from his mother who played an orbital role in his upbringing? otherwise how else could he have known where his father was raised and all the appendages of his background...and yeah the same ragtag community vigilantes that held your ''world class'' army for protracted period of years until your British,Egyptian,and Russian masters had to bail you lots out finally...abi no be small Boko haram boys dey teach your army serious pepper for NE again?

so if by his own admission his father was unknown, then what makes him Ibo?

Arent you tired of owning people who dont want to be owned or associated with you?

You freak!

Qelvin:
I feel your morbid frustrations bro, its just hard for you to come to grasp with the reality that we own you lots in Lagos...whether the Iya Loja is elected or appointed doesn't even add any substance to your arguments cause we are still looking at the same reality- that we are systematically taking control of our God-given land and resources LAGOS, so y.a.r.i.b.a slave know your place cause you are condemned to the conduits of servility...politically to the Hausa/Fulani's...commercially and quasi-territorially to Igbos

go and look up the word economic mule. Ibos are beasts of burden, your output enriches our land.

Have you not figured out the relationship between the mule and the land yet?

The mule believes the stable that houses him makes him a landlord. He was too du.mb to realise the stable was a shelter to keep his back dry and strong from the vagaries of the element....if left in the wet rain his economic value to the baron depreciates.

Qelvin:
i.m.b.e.c.i.l.e Alabi Isama came from a liberal family consisting of a Christian father and a Muslim mother,so having Godwin as his name is not a far-fetched possibility if he chose to adopt a Christian name as well...I don't see what that has got to do with the fact that his mother was a Muslim.

you are confused....you are suffering from Ojukwufor syndrome! This was the same disease that got Emeka thinking his ragtag community vigilantes can defeat Nigerian Army.

You said his father was unknown so who found that his father was a christian? Bottom line, the man was born and raised in Asaba where his parents had settled and neither the father or mother was Ibo.

The only recognisable Iya Loja is Tinubu's Daughter, cry me holy water.

Keep fantasising about Lagos, it's your right and enjoy the erection-giving fantasy.

See the slave of all Nigerians, calling somebody a slave. Y1bos are slaves of all Nigerians, even the unclad komo people, you are our war booty.

Mind you, who did the British blackmailed to form Govt with Northerners, Zik --- a y1boman

Who connived with Northerners to destabilise Western Region --- Zik, a y1boman

Who annulled June 12 for y1bos -- Nzeribe, y1boman

Who organised 5mm members of their ethnic group to support Abacha YEAA's project -- Daniel Kanu, another y1boman

Who has been suck1ng the balls of northerners ---- as you can see, is the y1bos.

Who wrestled power from the northerners. -- yorubas
Who sent the military packing -- yorubas
Who is always check mating the northerners -- yorubas

Bow at your master's feet and learn.

Mayor of Lagos endorses this message!

No need for pictures for this discussion abeg.

My brother i take Oduduwa beg you, no need for picture....we can do verbal, no graphics.

Qelvin:
you should worry more about the identity crisis the good old people of Ilorin might be suffering under the weight of an Islamic caliphate, cause you wouldn't even dare debate the true Igboness of an Asaba man and get away in one piece, the Ohaneze Pan Igbo group has a Asaba man as its president,

There is political crisis in Ilorin.....but there has never been an identity crisis in Ilorin.

Ibo on the other hand suffer from overlays of crisis, political, identity, economic, geographic, population, cultural, .....

make i stop cause Chinyere dey nearby and i no want upset this fine damsel. She wants to forget anything call Ibo. Im the one begging her to keep her name, she is ready to dump it.

yeye dey stink !

Qelvin:
Lmaooo so you are so hopeless in your quest to stay relevant that you failed to do your own homework,letting someone else do your work for you intellectual attaché, and of course I am not denying the fact that a number of Igbos fought against Biafra..the crux of the whole debate is that they were in the negligibly low minority.....the only recognizable names on that list are Elechi Amadi an Ikwerre from Rivers state who like most of his people at the time were wary of Igbo domination...BUT ELECHI REMAINS A NO-NAME WHEN HEAVYWEIGHT FIGURES LIKE OBI WALI A STAUNCH AND ASTUTE IKWERRE LEADER WHO STOOD SOLIDLY BY BIAFRA AND PLAYED VARIOUS DIPLOMATIC ROLES TILL THE END ARE MENTIONED...Alabi Isama categorically mentioned in his book that he was born in one of the Igbo speaking areas of the old Midwest but he did not even know his father(whose real identity is not even known, I stand to be corrected cause I read that book) his mother was a Muslim Alhaji who more or less influenced him during this upbringing so he is ruled out from the equation.

a muslim alhaja would not name her son Godwin. Where are your senses?

Chidi "mace" Lloyd!

WhiteTechnology:
What is Buhari's stand on

Resource control

Fiscal federalism

Privatization

Political federalism

Decentralization of Nigeria

State police

etc

whos is this? Go and read APC manifesto if you have not already done so.

It addresses all these points + a lot more....

AJINATU:
Brig-Gen Godwin Alabi Isama.
His father was from Asaba, Delta state but his mother from Ilorin, Kwara state. He is an Anioma and he fought against Biafra, he was a field commander in the 3MCD with the likes of Adekunle, Obasanjo et al.

Alabi Isama is not Ibo. His father and fathers before him were Edos. The parents settled in Asaba and he was born and raised there. Its not all Asabans that are Ibos.

@topic,

What else should we expect from him....dont forget people, "Ibos are the pillars of his administration"

Ibos are short sighted in every aspect of political stratagem....whether its domestic or international.

This is what upsets Chinyere the most.
She told me the other day that there is no earlier achievements we can credit to Ibos before the coming of Azikiwe under the wings of a Yorubaman, the mighty Herbert Macauley who groomed and tutored Zik on the intrigues of Yoruba politics.

She said if Azikiwe had not gone to live in Yorubaland there would never have been a Zik of Africa, period! His footprints beaars testimony to Chinyere's input. Zike never achieved anything in the North or in the East, and in Ghana he was thrown in jail and then deported from that country. He lived amongst the young Yoruba academics who at the time were anti-establishment....they resented the colonial government and wanted self rule. Their movements crystalled into opposition groups and fought against the colonial government policies. This is what rooted opposition in Yorubaland. Awolowo and his Egbe Omo Oduduwa were at forefront of opposition.

To temper their agitation and rising influence the government introduced liberal policies allowing indigenous political parties to form. NCNC was an offshoot of this policy. Herbert Macauley, the founder of NCNC had ambition to succeed the legacies of colonialism...in other words, he wanted the system in place but run by Blacks.

Awolowo on the other hand wanted a return to the Yoruba traditional self government and liberties.

Hence non-Yorubas were accepted as members into NCNC but not into Egbe Omo Oodua.

This is how Azikiwe found himself in NCNC. It has recently been rumored that Macauley did not hand over leadership to Zik but that being the only political aide to last visit with Macauley before his last breathe, Zik changed the message he was commanded to pass on and instead announced that Macauley handed over the mantle to him.

This trick was repeated in the episode of power snatch when Ironsi arm twisted the Northerners in 1966 and took their mandate from them. The tutorial for that overthrow came from Zik.

Zik became the Moses of Ibos.....when he turned NCNC from a Yoruba party to an Ibo party and employed the institutions of political access to install and groom Ibo leaders.

One of the beneficiaries was Ojukwu's father and down the line...Emeka Ojukwu himself.

These were people through whom Ibo can boast a political relevance. Ibo had no political might before Zik and had not had any since Ojujwu.

Its all dead now!

On what political might is Biafra to launch a forward and independent march?

Let's explore this for a minute.

The land has no commercially viable resource beside coal. Biafra as a nation must therefore include contigious resourceful lands and territories on which to subsist for internal growth and expansion.

Where are those lands and territories? The Delta.

This means Ibos must form a Biafran nation consisting of plural races of people with different social and cultural ways of life. The issue of language, rulership, economy and of course faiths and customs will have to be negotiated and consented on.

If Biafra chooses to be homogenous and not mix with any land outside of Alaigbo, then it must address the risk of dependency on its coastal neighbours for right of way to sea and into continental markets.



Ooohhhh, my lovely beautiful Chinyere is sad, her heart bleeds for her homeland. She started crying now....

Chinyere needs me to comfort her......Ill be back later my friends.

Im ready to chase all pygymys and bantus out of here and back to their ancestral land in Congo. Its a mission that must be accomplished. I guarantee you!
Their f00lishness give my wife too much headache.

bloody cowards sneaking into AU to get recognition for what they could not accomplish with bullets and guns!

@post,

Amaechi joined APC after his fallout with Jonathan over his defeat of the President's choice for Chairman of Governors Council.

Like Amaechi, Kwankwaso also was a defector.


Who are these political amateurs that are expecting APC to ignore grassroot members grandfathered into the merger and pick defectors into a top ruling position?

What flavor of political milk were you all bre_ast_fed on?

Its amazing Fani Kayode isnt speaking on APC choice for vp. Im hearing rumor he is contemplating returning to APC.

May his soul rest in peace.

Op, thanks to you for this article.

This should be framed and hung in Buhari's Office when he starts to live in Aso Rock.

Oh, i was wondering why Akanu Ibiam became a seaport and Stealer had a waterfront mansion. Now all the dots are connected and it makes sense!

Citadel , these Ibo leaders are giving my wife headache...and when she gets headache my own head starts to throbb.

Ohaneze has been supressing Ibo citizens and their political dreams since 500bc. Hear wetin Ajuluchukwu said when he ordered APP to kill its political ambition so a Yorubaman can win. This was just four years after PDP snatched the Presidency from Ekwueme and donated to OBJ.

[size=16pt]Nigeria may experience post-election crisis if Obasanjo did not win. If the APP present Igbo man as their presidential candidate, the unity that exists among the southerners would be broken,"he said.[/size]


For those who do not know, Orji Uzor Kalu was one of founders of APP and they had an Iboman to contest 1993 Presidency election until Ohaneze told them to sit down so OBJ can win.

Fast forward to 2014....they have done it again and ordered Ibo aspirants to sit down so Jonathan can win 2015.

Hold on, Chinyere is crying.....she is upset about these bantu monkeys that are good for nothing. Make i go attend to my wife, Ill be back later my brother.....

Ajuluchukwu to Afenifere: Support Obasanjo or There'll be Crisis

PDP Northeast endorses Obasanjo-Atiku ticket
>From Chukwudi Nwabuko in Abuja and Ademola Adeyemo in Ibadan
-------------------------------------------------------------

A leader of Ohaneze, a pan-Igbo group, Chief M.C.K. Ajuluchukwu,
yesterday warned the leaders of Afenifere against withholding its
support for President Olusegun Obasanjo's re-election in 2003, saying
Nigeria may face serious post-election crisis if Obasanjo was denied a
second term.

And in Abuja, the Northeast zone of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
endorsed the Vice President Atiku Abubakar and Obasanjo's running mate
in 2003.

Ajuluchukwu, who spoke yesterday in Ibadan at the Conference Centre of
the University of Ibadan, said the present democratic experience may be
truncated if Nigerians failed to re-elect Obasanjo as president in 2003.

He said that from all indications, PDP would re-nominate Obasanjo for
2003 elections.

The elder statesman, however, pleaded with Yorubas to support Obasanjo
for the second term in office in order to forestall the post-election
crisis.

Said he: "Afenifere is the key to stability of our democracy. It seems
the Afenifere is not supporting Obasanjo candidacy for the 2003
election. Afenifere has the key to stability because they control the
masses, you should not make mistake about this.

"Afenifere are supporting the OPC, the Yoruba Council of Elders (YCE).
But I don't want Yoruba to go into opposition because Yoruba have been
in the opposition since the First Republic, they only managed to be in
government since 1999," he said.

Lamenting the lukewarm attitude of Afenifere leadership to the
re-election of Obasanjo, the Ohanaeze leader said even Professor Bolaji
Akinyemi vehemently kicked against it.

"I told Akinyemi on several occasions that Afenifere must support
Obasanjo's second term bid. If Yoruba miss the Presidency in 2003, it
will take a long time before Yoruba will get there again," he said.

Ajuluchukwu, however, warned Afenifere against dividing Yorubaland: "I
have asked Adesanya to invite Chief Akinjide and others and re-unite
Yorubas. It can be easily done because Yoruba have been used to unity
since Awolowo era," he said.

The frontline politician also said that the pan-Yoruba organisation
should justify its support for Obasanjo by referring to Chief Bola Ige
and Chief Adesanya's daughter's involvement in Obasanjo's
administration: "Nigeria may experience post-election crisis if Obasanjo
did not win. If the APP present Igbo man as their presidential
candidate, the unity that exists among the southerners would be broken,"
he said.

According to him, the Hausa-Fulani want to control the Igbo man and that
the situation may brew crisis at the national level.

He also said that Nigeria was not yet a democratic nation until a
national conference was convened.

"We are only a civilian rule, Nigeria will not enjoy the dividend of
democracy until we convene a national conference," he said.

He also disclosed that Obasanjo was in support of the national
conference and four zones of the country supported the national
conference, "very soon, the other two zones will support the conference
for that confab is not against them".

Meanwhile, the North-East Zone of the PDP has endorsed Vice President
Atiku Abubakar as running mate to Obasanjo in the 2003 presidential
election.

The endorsement of Atiku by the zone was sealed at a meeting of the
North East executive committee of the party in Maiduguri, Borno State,
attended by the vice president, members of the party's national
executive committee, members of the board of trustees, chairmen and
secretaries of the state chapters of the party, legislators, ministers,
special advisers as well as ambassadors.

A communique issued at the end of the meeting and read to newsmen
yesterday in Abuja by the National Vice Chairman (North East), Alhaji
Song Abubakar Ahmed, noted among other things that the zone re-affirmed
its total commitment to the support and representation of the
Obasanjo/Atiku ticket for the 2003 presidential election, adding that
"the meeting was convinced beyond doubt that there was wisdom in the
well-known convention of not changing a winning ticket, the task is to
strengthen it".

The communique which was signed by Song , Senator Jonathan Zwingina,
Alhaji Kashim Ibrahim-Imam, Alhaji Abba Ibrahim Gubio and Alhaji Murtala
Aliyu, also reaffirmed the resolve of the north east zone to present a
Presidential candidate when the office rotates to the north, stressing
that "this we believe, will be in the interest of fairplay, justice and
equity as the zone remains the most disadvantaged in the north in never
having the opportunity to produce a Head of State or President, whether
military or civilian".

In the 10-point communique, the zone equally reviewed activities in the
oil and gas sector, particularly the discovery of gas in commercial
quantities, and appealed to the Federal Government to commence gas
exploitation since oil had been discovered in commercial quantity in the
Chad basin.

The meeting also urged the Federal Government to support the Mambilla
hydro- electric power project, estimated to generate 3,900 MW, in order
to supplement the electricity needs of the country.

On the membership registration exercise of the party, the zone resolved
to actively support and participate in the exercise, noting that the
registration was not related to the forthcoming elections at the party
and local government levels.

Prof's wife is Fulani.
Prof himself is Yoruba
Buhari is Fulani
The first lady is Hausa.

This is a Yoruba/Fulani oligarchy.
Bloody racists!

I will lead a protest with my inlaws and myself against this colonialism.



Igbo kwenu...!!

What happened that Ibo leaders did not stop Jonathan and PDP from fielding Sambo as VP?

Sambo is not able to deliver the NW bloc for Jonathan in 2015....but Ibo leaders are delivering the entire SE to Jonathan in return for what?

Why didnt Ohaneze demand the PDP VP position?

berem:
What are you saying? Mtscheeew!

Im saying with APC going for NW/SW (Buhari/Osibanjo) and PDP also going for SS/NW (Jonathan/Sambo), what guarantees do Ibos have of a handover of power from Jonathan to them in 2019?

The time to handover power to Ibo is now! They should call for a review of the PDP platform and demand that Sambo step down for an Ibo VP for 2015. So that it will be SS/SE in 2015 on the PDP side.

If you project the candidates against the background of Nigerian politics you can be sure that if PDP win in 2015, then Sambo, not an Iboman, will be stepping in 2019 as President.

So where is the benefit of Ibo telling its citizens to step down and not compete against Jonathan?

It doesnt look like we will get an Ibo president in the next 30yrs. My inlaws are not playing this game well atall and it gives me headache.

When we go to the polls in 2015 to select our next President, geopolitically, we will be looking at the combination of NW/SW and SS/NW.

In its formation stage when terms were under negotiation to merge opposition parties I remember Tinubu inferring, in interview by Vanguard, that it is true the North did not complete its term when YarAdua died but the VP is endorsed by law to assume the vacant post. He said the fact we lived by the rule of law and sworn in Jonathan as the President was a credit to our political maturity.

He then went further to say that we must break from our old prejudices and embrace a new dynamics, it is a new era of unity to see a minority in the Presidency, and we must not forget there are three major ethnic groups.....it is time we rally together and support the emergence of an Igbo at the top.

He declared the new alliance they were forming recognises the geopolitical rotation and the SE must have a key position on their platform.


So here are my thoughts.....

1. Why did Ibo leaders not merge APGA into APC?

2. Since formation APC has won elections in SW, NW, SS, NE, NC......why has APC not win any electoral contest in Iboland?

3. Why do Ibo leaders portray APC has its enemy?

4. Ibo leaders issued a public statement and ordered all its Presidential candidates to stand down for Jonathan. They called on all Ibos to stand faithfully behind Jonsthan.

5. So were Ibo leaders asleep when Jonathan picked Sambo for his VP in 2015? Why did they not negotiate their solid support behind PDP on the emergence of an Iboman as VP to Jonathan in 2015?


If Ibo leaders had any vision, and instead of trying to convince the world that Lagos is a no man's land and Yorubas are amala and ewedu eaters.....if they would just focus on what is truly important to their children and ethnicity, in 2015 we would have been heading to the polls with this combination...... NW/SE for APC and SS/SE for PDP.

It is already concluded that Yoruba will be President in 2023 and Hausa will be VP.

That is only 8yrs away. That Yoruba President is the one that will be announced today.

Sit back and enjoy Ibadan politics....

Why u yab my inlaws nau?
