Caveat: There's need to state that by 'north' here, I am referring to the northern mafias, Kaduna Mafia if you please, who have over the years constituted themselves as kingmakers of Nigeria whereby only the person they approve of can become president of Nigeria whether from their northern region or the south. So, by north, I'm not referring to the entire region nor the poor northern masses who are mere victims of the machinations of this mafia over the years.

Now that we have stated that, let's into the meat of this piece.

Any critical follower of politics in Nigeria will know that the high turnout of protesters in the north in the recently concluded #EndBadGovernance Protest was engineered by this northern mafia as a way of registering their frustration at how powerless they've become since they conspired to hand power over to Tinubu; maybe because they thought he was frail and might go the Yaradua way but man seems to have gotten new life since he was sworn in. The north has never been as powerless, politically, as they are now, and it seems Tinubu is bent on making sure he breaks their hold on Nigeria which was used to making them think they own the country. They are afraid of this happening but I think it's too late for them already.

Many may not have realized the game the north wanted to play in 2023 but I will mention it.

In 2023, this northern cabal wanted to retain power in the north through Atiku and the plan was to ensure that they make rubbish of the APC ticket to prevent a strong candidate from emerging so that Atiku's path will be smoother. This is why they wanted to useless the APC ticket by announcing Ahmed Lawan as consensus candidate. They knew nobody would vote Lawan which would leave Atiku as the most manageable option. But something happened.

Throughout their years of calculations and strategy before the 2023 elections, they never envisaged Peter Obi. They never knew that a certain Peter Obi would go to a different party and take the eastern and northern Christians votes they were banking on for Atiku away from him.

When the Peter Obi wave became too much and the north saw that the Atiku project will no longer work, add Wike and his Asoebi boys’ shenanigans too, they were now faced with a choice of either allowing Peter Obi ride on his wave to victory or ‘deliver’ Tinubu. They chose Tinubu instead. Yeah, I said they chose Tinubu because what happened in 2023 elections wouldn't have happened if these 'owners of Nigeria' were not in support.

Obasanjo knew what he was talking about, and the people he was referring to when he wrote his open letter endorsing Peter Obi in 2023.

Why did they choose Tinubu?

Many factors contributed to them choosing Tinubu. First, Peter Obi is an Igbo man, a tribe they are scared of allowing get power for whatever fear they harbour. Again, Tinubu’s Muslim Muslim ticket, which was specifically chosen to deceive them and it worked, making them think they were doing Allah’s work by choosing Tinubu. Similarly, during campaigns, Tinubu seemed he was nearing his death. So, their calculation may have been that if he goes the way of Yaradua, then power will return to the region faster.

All these and other factors made them decide that Tinubu should have it and instruction was given as such which is why a character like Mahmoud Yakubu could do what he did because he was acting on instruction from his superiors already; that’s aside the money that may have exchanged hands also.

All of this is why the north feels Tinubu owes them.

Now, why are they angry? You might ask.

1) Subsidy: Since Tinubu took power, he removed subsidy. When they talk about the vultures that were benefiting and feeding fat on subsidy payments, believe me when I tell you that most of them were northerners. Tinubu’s removal, or redirection, of subsidy payment has taken feeding bottle off their mouth and they are fighting back.

2) Exchange Rate Unification: It’s common knowledge that northerners dominate the Bureau De Change market in Nigeria with claims having been made in the past that these men used to source their dollar directly from the CBN and resell at Black Market rate to make excessive profit at the expense of Nigerians. The exchange rate unification has taken food from a lot of northern Alhajis who are the real owners of these businesses.

3) Appointments: The north spent 8 years defending Buhari's nepotistic appointments and justifying them with the most irrational reasons ever heard. What they never imagined is that a time would come when they would be the ones crying against another person's nepotism. Yes, Tinubu has broken every nepotistic record set by Buhari with nearly 80% of the appointments he has made since he took power going to the Yoruba, and the north considers that an affront. They feel they deserved more from Tinubu for 'helping' him to power. Again, they feel only one of theirs can dare to be nepotistic as Buhari was. How dare a southerner?

4) Politically: Politically, Tinubu seems to have succeeded in keeping every member of that evil circle away from his government like the likes of Elrufai, and they are not happy they are not inside. If anything, the reason somebody like Elrufai supported Tinubu was because he wanted to be Vice President. But with Tinubu shutting him out now, he has seen the pathway to his presidency dimmed which would delay, or kill, whatever agenda they want to achieve with power which they fail to achieve with Buhari.

5) Restructuring and Regionalism: If there’s anything the north hates, it’s the idea of Nigeria being restructured and the country going back to regionalism which they feel would greatly put them at a disadvantage as they are the biggest beneficiaries of the current dysfunctional structure. Now, during campaigns, Tinubu never said anything about restructuring but since he took power, we have seen documents flying around in the media space on how Nigeria is to be restructured with even a proposed return to regionalism. The presidency has never disowned this document which has heightened the fear of the north that their greatest fear might end up happening from someone they thought had no interest in that without realizing that they were simply played. Or maybe they have realized.

In a nutshell, the north was beaten at their own game in 2023 and now they are looking for a way out.

In looking for this way out, they have started fraternizing with Peter Obi to try to convince him to be Atiku’s running mate in 2027 so that Atiku can hand over to him after 4 years.

But I write this to tell Peter Obi to never make himself available for such deal in 2027.

In 2027, the north must choose between Peter Obi or Tinubu.

If they fear Igbo man so much that they cannot allow him get to power then I don’t mind Southeast voting for Tinubu to continue in power. And once Tinubu gets his second tenure and has nothing to lose anymore, he would finish off everything he has eyes on - to ensure Nigeria is completed restructured with a return to regionalism.

So, in conclusion, in 2027, the north must choose between southern candiates and no southerner, not much Peter Obi, should help save them from the misery they got themselves into by themselves.

I’ve seen early signs of them trying to throw the Jonathan joker in 2027 but that’s story for another day as we watch events unfold.

Our online SE brothers make una dey calm down!..

Na Una say una no protest for una region, No Wahala. But na una carry the Protest pass for head all over social media: Promoting, Inciting and instigating protest all over social media, using "thousands" of accounts, Lol. 😂

Na only una dey post several topics about protest wey una say you no dey part of. This is the most weird mindset I've ever come across.

Most of Posts about Protest opened by you guys, yet you claim you're not interested in protest.. To be honest I hardly ever across online post from my SS folks or folks from other Regions as much as our SE brothers.. Lol

President GEJ our brother wey una dey always reference had long moved on, just as most SS do, we simply move on..

Abeg my SE brothers make una calm down ok.

This continuous irresponsible and immature actions go Just dey backfire.. It has never worked and never will.

May God help us all.

The storm is gathering in the North ahead of 2027

Possibly lead to a combined force against Tinubu

2025 is the deciding year..

Tinubu's option is to play Obasanjo's game, harmonise Southern vote and a pinch of Northern vote.

Unfortunately, Tinubu is not Obasanjo.

Hated in SE and SS by ordinary citizens

Especially after the fallout of Igbo and Yourba in the last election.

What next? Figure out a way to get the governors and senators together.

Chief of staff - Femi came out with the brilliant idea, senate southern caucus was formed headed by Senator Adetokunbo Abiru (APC Lagos East composed of 51 senators from the 17 southern states

Next, the southern Governor meeting headed by Gov of Lagos state, SE and SS governors was asked to make request of what they need.

Forget the comminque presented to press, most requested development down SS and SE, some will need FG support to win 2 term..

Good Tinubu have started to realise his fate and making early start yet the main challenge remain ahead.

The biggest of all is this man - Peter Obi.

What he does next year or what he doesn't do will determine Tinubu's chances of 2nd term..

At some point, it might be wise for Tinubu to directly make contact with Peter Obi.

The only thing tinubu can do to get Southern vot is to create a regional government or implement the Jonathan confab report. This is the wish of every souther and middle belt. If tinubu can do this he may not need to campaign in the south. Even peter obi will support him

Let us be realistic. Political appointment is not employment. It's just for little time, no pension, no retirement benefits.

Workch:
While I vehemently condemn the dastardly attack on the Nigerian army In Aba, but it's better for them to do due deligence instead of attacking innocent people. We are not scared of them, no sane person should even be scared of this unprofessional armed force. If need arises, we will defend our land with our blood like our fathers did.
Igbos are not known to be intimidated. We don't care about the gang up by other Nigerian tribes against us, if there's a need to defend ourselves, we will do it.

And yes, we will keep telling our children about the Nigerian gang up against igbo people until the country does the right thing just like our fathers did.

We are not scared of the army, you can go to a minority to tribe elsewhere and threaten them, not the igbos.

If the constitutional amendment for regional government is to succeed, who should lead the Southeast region?

Biafra is not going to solve the multitude of problems affecting south-easterners. The corruption, tribalism and intolerance that got us where we are now will not magically go away when Biafra becomes a reality. In fact the tribalism might even turn out to be worse because the smaller the difference between communities, the larger it appears in the mind of the people.

What will will be the fate of non-igbo speaking people in this hypothetical Biafra?

How do you know that the leaders you will get then will be better that ones you have now? Remember that while the system may change, the elites almost always have a way of staying in power.

Why are you people forcefully taking territories of people that do not identify as Igbos (South-South)?

Nobody is asking these questions not to talk of answering them and that says a lot.

I rest my case.
