There is virtually nothing either they or Saraki himself can do to stop Amaechi from being confirmed. Should they even attempt to withdraw support from Saraki and have him removed as SP, then their man Ekweremmadu will also be removed as DSP; I don't think the PDP is ready to go down that line.

But the SE is doing better than most parts of the north.
She has a much better standard of living, more education, more wealth distribution than probably any part of NIgeria.
The north are largely backward, but have produced the ruling class, so i don't understand your point.
Nigeria is dysfunctional. Socio-economic progress will not make the SE rule. The SE is always very progressive relative to the resources she gets from the Nigerian state.
Btw, the SE gets by far the lowest federal allocation and has the lowest debts and the least poverty.
So what are else are we saying? How much more progressive do the SE need to be?
Katsina and the north east is very very poor and yet the president comes from there.
You are not being sincere. A quality absent in most one-nigerianists.
cc, mikeywise

You have still reiterated a point I'm trying to make; having an Igbo man as president will not in any way change the fundamental problem of the SE. Just the same way the north has always produced rulers but yet still remains the most backward and poverty stricken region in Nigeria.

Regarding the SE, we are doing well today not because of better political leadership at the local level, but rather we are doing well solely due to individual efforts. I'm sure you will agree with me on that?

The last time we had real leaders in the SE was in the days of great people like Dee Sam Mbakwe; since then, all we've had are mediocre charlatans. Whether we break away from Nigeria or not, Igbos in our industrous ways will continue to maintain a high standard of living in the SE. But then, if any serious positive change in these standards must be achieved, we have to first of all address the problem of political leadership at the local level before we start thinking federal. Before we start talking of what the hausa or yoruba man is doing to us at the federal level, we should have talked about what we are doing at the local level to clean our house.

If we cannot approach this problem in this systematic way by addressing the local level first before going to the federal, I'm afraid even if we achieve an actualisation of Biafra, our case may be worse than the confusion and chaos presently ongoing in south sudan.

Ngwaukwu1:
Your analysis is interesting. Not wrong. It's a point of view so cannot be dismissed as wrong.

Here's my point of view.

I say without any apologies to anyone and with a strong sense of conviction that it is not in the best interest of Ndigbo to aspire to the presidency of Nigeria in its present structure!.

If by any accident an Igbo person were to become president of Nigeria in 2019, the recent misadventure of Jonathan in Aso rock would be like child's play compared to what he'll have to contend with! There would be an explosion of discontent, accusations of corruption and nepotism, counter accusations of tribalism, screams of marginalisation from North, West and South, blackmailing from the media and escalating unrest and chaos, calls for a military coup etc to the point where he would either be forced to resign from office or end up disgraced out of office before the end of his tenure!

This may sound far fetched or even a tad paranoid but any really discerning follower of the dynamics of power and politics in Nigeria will tell you that such a scenario cannot be completely dismissed if a president of Igbo origin were to occupy Aso Rock.

I believe that the reasonable thing to do for those Igbo politicians who still believe there is a role for them to play within the Nigerian space, would be for them to stop thinking of the presidency and start focusing on political and economic integration of the Igbo speaking areas of Nigeria. This is the only way they can achieve a semblance of respect. And paradoxically this would be the easiest way for them to broker themselves into more power at the centre.

We don't need to look too far down the well of history to see who this approach has worked for.

But hey, you can dismiss this point of view as it is without doubt biaised and has been proferred by someone who makes it clear he no longer believes in project Nigeria. . .

I may be wrong, but I can assure you that the misadventure of GEJ in aso rock was only possible because GEJ himself was weak, indecisive and he lacked public administrative skills to a large extent. He also committed several flaws which made it possible and very easy for the opposition to harass him. There is hardly any leader in a complex nation like Nigeria that will not be bamboozled with all those accusations and counter-accusations. But the way the leader reacts to them is very important, it will determine whether more bombs will keep coming or not and will also determine whether he will stay afloat or not.

I also subscribe absolutely to your recommendations of Igbo leaders concentrating on the local scene to improve the lives of Igbos at the local level. Never has it been heard that Igbo states did not receive federal allocations; if only our leaders and pressure groups can concentrate at the local level, scrutinise local leaders (governors, LGA chairmen and councillors) and force out excellent performance from the leaders at the home base, I can assure you that when the rest of Nigeria sees how wonderfully well the SE is doing in all economic and social indices, they would virtually beg an Igbo man to come and be president. However, instead of calling for accountability at the local levels, it seems our attention is always fixated at the federal; hence the complaints or marginalisation and the calls for secession.

Once again, I may be wrong, but this is just my personal opinion.

My brother i am a realist and i say things the way they are. It is not defeatism but being real to the true situations around you. My People say If you dont know where the rain started beating you you will not know where it will stop. Like you rightly pointed out, the mistrusts in this nation between all ethnic sections is rife and the igbos are at the receiving end of a large chunk of it from collective others.Shall we continue like this?

Since 1970 the igbos are viewed with an eye of mistrusts and disgust by other Nigerians, in the north and mid belt where i have stayed for many years you easily come across kids and teens proudly mouthing that an Iyamiri can never be the president of this nation.. The No victor no vanquished declaration after the war was just a charade and was never taken seriously... i am not against the igbos aligning with any of the other ethnic groups, but pertinent remains this question, WHAT IS IN FOR US AND HOW CERTAIN ARE WE THAT THIS ALIGNMENT and ALLIANCES IN THE MIDST OF DEEP MISTRUSTS OF THE IGBO NATION CAN PROMOTE THE IGBO INTREST? . Isnt Jonathan a case study, will an Igbo man survive in the seat as the first citizen of this country without unrelenting backlash and sentiments.

Now you may disagree with me on this but the only reason why the propaganda and harassment of Jonathan was possible was because Jonathan himself lacked to a large extent, the required strength and leadership qualities to lead a complex nation like Nigeria; Jonathan himself was not cut out to be an administrator, he lacked courage and he had too many flaws which the opposition easily used against him. The Hausas hated GEJ from the word GO! because they feel he usurped their turn to rule and the SW and other regions lost faith in GEJ strictly because of his perceived incompetence.

Regarding the hatred and mistrust for Igbos, that is not a hidden fact; I served my NYSC in Kaduna and I experienced the 'iyamiri' and 'Igbo can never be president' taunts first hand but trust me, that is rubbish. Had Yaradua not died and had GEJ not contested in 2011, I can assure you that an Igbo man would have been the president of Nigeria in 2015 (or 2019 at most).

I don't buy all these bridge building, superior politics nonsense. The benefits never go to the ethnic groups involved but solely to individuals. Buhari is the second Katsina indigenes elected as president in the last 8 years. How has that benefited the common man in Katsina?

Nigeria is structurally dysfunctional. Instead of thinking about how to correct its basic defect, you're thinking about how one individual that bears an Igbo name will take his turn in raping the common will. You should be talking about building a better nation where the ethnicity of an individual is secondary to his ideas and general competence.

I totally share your sentiments, I am absolutely not an advocate of a president or any leader coming from my tribe because I totally understand it's worthlessness. The northerners ruled Nigeria more than any other group yet they remain the most backward and most poverty stricken. OBJ ruled Nigeria for 8 years but that did not help his people in any way and likewise GEJ who ruled for 5 years, his leadership did not positively affect the common man even in his immediate hamlet (except for the politicians and militants who received mega bucks).

Now I have only decided to speak on the issue of Igbo presidency because there are many people out there who actually think it matters; I was only addressing a comment raised by one of such persons, not that I really care whether where a leader comes from.

This is the reason we have to do away with these ungrateful ss minorities and team up with the other two big tribes to play this game like the tribe we are. The ijaws/ss are a trachrous group of people.

No I disagree with you! The Ijaws and the SS are not treacherous people. You need to understand that surviving in a country like Nigeria is like a rat race; everyone cares only about himself and everyone does what they think is expedient to protect their own interests. If the Ijaws/SS are as treacherous as you claim, the truth then is that they are not more treacherous than we Igbos or the yorubas or the hausas or any other group. Everyone is just looking out for himself, all man for himself.

Alliances are for mutual benefit and for it to work, both sides need to compromise on some of their requirements in order to fit into the demands and expectations of the other party. Doing away with the SE+SS alliance will not be a good idea because no alliance is ever a waste. However, if the SE must get to the top, we need more than just an alliance with the SS.

Are you Igbo? If you are then you will know that no matter how much the Igbo man builds bridges with the hausa and yorubas, there will forever exist this mistrust and envy towards the igbos by this groups.I dont want to talk about the So called south south(Ijaws, edo,itsekiri, urhobo especially), they have proven time and time again that they cannot be trusted to align fully with the Igbos without sentiments... Our only hope for sustenance in this contraption is Biafra..

Now that is the exact defeatist attitude that will continue to keep us backwards. Who told you it is only the Igbos that are not trusted?.. Do you think the yorubas trust the HAusas and vice versa?... DO you think the middle belt or SS trusts any other group in Nigeria and vice versa?... It would do us good to understand that nobody trusts nobody and there are no brothers in a jungle. In politics, if an alliance must be formed, the terms of agreement have to be agreed in such a way and manner that the benefits to both sides are known before hand; it is like a simple contract. There is no way in which a proper political alliance would be formed between 'A' and 'B', and then after 'A' rules, he hands over power to 'C.' This continuous paranoia of Igbos have prevented us for ages from forming proper alliances and that is exactly why we cannot produce a president. But instead of coming back to the drawing board to strategize, many minds have given up and believe the only way out is a divorce. That's unfortunate!

EUROBOMBER:
How can you say he should let bygones be when there is an unwritten law that Igbo will not be allowed to rule Nigeria again? How can you accept a nation that don't want you to rule?

The only people making it impossible for Igbos to rule Nigeria are Igbos themselves. We cannot expect other ethnic groups to do all the politicking, win the coveted price and then hand it over to the Igbos. If igbos must rule Nigeria, we need to play superior politics and we need to grab the trophy (not wait for it to be given to us) and in order to do this, it surely should involve building solid bridges with at least one other major ethnic group. Instead of doing this, we seem to be burning the remaining bridges we still have by hating and accusing everyone else.

The simple reason the Igbos have been unable to produce a president and the reason this feat may be difficult even in the near future is because we always make wrong political choices. Without going too far into the past, an igbo presidency should have been actualised in 2015 if GEJ did not break the PDP rotational presidency principle. I remember vividly when former senate president Ken Nnamani and Vincent Ogbulafor were championing this cause and preaching against Igbos supporting the emergence of GEJ as PDP candidate in 2011. These 2 men warned of the consequence of this move on the planned Igbo presidency of 2015. But we all dismissed their advice, supported GEJ and even Ogbulafor was sacked unceremoniously as the PDP chairman; I think Ogbulafor had to even resign from politics after that incident.

Fast-forward to 2015, Igbo presidency now seems like a mirage and here we are blaming others. Just like I mentioned earlier, politics is a game of numbers and it's a game of 'winner takes all;' Nobody will work hard, play superior politics, win the coveted trophy and then hand it over to Igbos. Now is the time for Igbos to start building bridges and playing superior politics but instead, we are busy bombing all existing bridges by attacking all other major ethnic groups. Even if all other groups in Nigeria decide to give the presidency to Igbos today, 10 years may not be enough for us to unite and choose a consensus candidate. In all past elections in Nigeria, Igbos have always produced the highest number of candidates, albeit from mushroom parties.

Please can someone tell me I am wrong in this simple analysis?

I am super convinced that the Biafra agitators of today are the remnants of PDP supporters in the SE. These people were religious in their support for GEJ out of hatred for hausas. It is a Biafra agitation driven by bigotry. I listened to some Radiobiafra broadcast, and the hatred was glaring.
Yesterday, in India and Japan, IPOB folks were adamantly referring to Buhari as a paedo. To me, that is their main issue. Biafra is just a means to and end, a soothening cause to remain relevant after the whole of Nigeria rejected an under-performing president.

Absolutely!

The Ipob sect guys are just nothing but disgruntled jonathanians and they've never failed too hide it. THe nnamdi guy has never failed to hide his hatred for anything APC and has called on and threatened his followers on several occasions to vote only PDP. I recently watched the video of the protest at the Nigerian embassy in Japan, they continually referred to Buhari as a paedophile terrorist president who has been killing Igbo women and children. They also claim that Nigeria was under a democracy when GEJ was in power but that we stopped practising a democracy from the second PMB took over; such glaring hypocrisy.

Its just too obvious that all these agitations and noise is just an expression of hatred towards Buhari for daring to win GEJ in a democratic election (not even through a coup). Never in my life have I seen such childish tantrums coming from full grown adults. I find it very depressing whenever I go online and see these multitude of lost souls bringing ridicule to my great tribe and also fuelling needless hatred and enmity angry

A valid question raised by an Igbo elder in the US to Mazi Kanu:
"I do not want ndigbo to to accept that a change in name will make anything to be different. There are about 7 states in Nigeria today which are predominantly Igbos and never has it been heard that any of these states hasn't received federal allocation. Never has it also been heard that any major group has ever agitated in the state levels to make things better for our people. But instead, we seem to be jumping straight to the federal level with these agitations. When shall we say Igbo people and Igbo states are doing extraordinarily well and will do even better if we stay on their own?... I am not seeing that but instead I keep hearing that if we separate, we will become great.

Let use the latest country created by the UN which is South Sudan as an example; at inception, it was all about excitement, but now, the people are doing what?.. the people are dying and killing themselves.

THE ISSUE IS NOT WHETHER WE ANSWER BIAFRA OR NIGERIA, THE ISSUE IS, WHAT ARE WE DOING FOR OURSELVES NDIGBO?

So my brothers, before we start talking about what the Hausa's are doing to us, have we talked about what we are doing to clean our house?"
