The Igbo candidates in each party can lobby their party's hierrachies to support them but it will be very difficult to force all parties to present only Igbo candidates in any Election.


In 1999, the PDP which had 'Zoning' in it's constitution zoned it's ticket to the SOUTH (not S/West in particular), accordingly the following presidential aspirants slugged it out in the 1999 PDP Jos Convention,

Gen Olusegun Obasanjo
Dr Alex Ekueme
Chief Jim Nwobodo
Dr Phillips Asiodu
Chief Don Etiebet
Graham-Douglass.

The APP and AD went to an alliance such that the AD produced Olu Falae as the Presidential candidate and APP produced Mallam Umaru Shinkafi as the Vice presidential candidate.

Deepthoughts:
pls go back n read my write up carefully,then you will discover the similarities in our views but while mine is out of national harmony considerations, yours is simply out of your worship for buhari, everyone must not support buhari,who has buhari ever supported himself?,the goodness of the nation is far superior to the very false claims of buhari's righteousness, I'm not a fan of buhari either.

Eeeyah, see the level of frustration.

Don't worry, God will do it.

Ziggylady:
Will you shut up?.

.it is politics because yorubas are adept on it but you guys claim Igbos indulge in 'politics of hate,has burnt their bridges blablabla'

You have so sunk into immoral abyss you dont know when to draw the line anymore...You term every atrocities and heinous attitude you display as being 'smart,'suffersticated' et al and we can shake our heads at you all

You term back-stabbing,being traitors and two-faced as 'Diplomacy' and sane folks can only pity you guys as you dance unclad in the market square calling yourselves 'smart'

Nonsense.

The Supreme court will declare Atiku winner, after all the results on the Server showed he won.

bigpicture001:
Tell us APC men to stop intimidating the judges..and allow justice chance in Nigeria nd see whether pdp won't bounce back and giv atiku leadership nd Nigeria sanity....

Buhari may support an Igbo candidate in 2023 just to prove his critics wrong.
There is nobody that God can not change.

Deepthoughts:
I'm not igbo but a Christian minority from the middle belt, well it's really up to the igbos identify n correct their political blunders n forge a common front,but for complete national healing, equity, fairness n federal character personally I would want a situation where both parties i.e Apc n pdp will both zone their candidacy to the SE to avoid further rancor n subsequently more division of the country along our fault lines.The igbos should have stood firmly for the north to complete their second tenure in 2011 after the Demise of yar'adua so that 2015 would have been theirs for taking but lack of political foresight made them to loss a good opportunity,when Apc was formed n the SE were invited to join,okorochas greed prevented the igbos from joining as strong unit under a concrete political arrangement,they didn't vote massively for pdp in 2015,they have remained in disarray since then,come 2023 it will be very difficult for Tinubu n his gang to concede to the SE n buhari doesn't look like someone interested in true national healing to be concern about the igbo political question n plight so it's either there igbos try n convince the nation to concede the presidency to them in 2023 or to go into alliance with the NE, NC n SS under a strong political arrangement as the SW n NW are very likely to be on the same side or to just resign to fate n wait for eternity.

Eeyah, ZiggyLady is annoyed.

Ziggylady:
Please grow up and stop typing like a toddler...There are thousands of comment from yorubas abusing and insulting Shehu Sani for criticising buhari.

There are thousands of yorubas insulting FFK for criticising APC and buhari...that is petty and emotional crap.

You insulted,plotted and spewed lies,falsehood and propaganda against GEJ...so how didnt you cry,whine and wail or dont you know the meaning of those words?

You hate,denigrade,abuse,insult,plot and connive against others yet delude yourselves you are on a higher moral ground than Igbos

You deceive nor fool no one with your delusions of grandeur except yourselves...not by a long shot.

Facts.

So both parents were black Africans, how come Bobrisky is now half-caste?

Nigerian Male Barbie, Idris Okuneye aka Bobrisky celebrated Sunday's Sallah festival with his Family in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State, Nigeria.


During his visit to their Family house, he shared a video showing the faces of his Late Dad and Mom on a wall Picture.

There are alot of sense in your write up.
However, Igbo politicians seems not to be interested in running for the Presidency in 2023 and some Igbo politicians (including most Igbo youths online) are saying they prefer that Igbos should vote and support Atiku or Tambuwal in 2023 with the hope of neutralizing Tinubu or anybody coming out from the S/West.

I hope you know that you can't be president if you don't contest for it?

Who do you blame for this sir?

Deepthoughts:
shehu sani is not been sincere here perhaps he is eyeing political resurgence in 2023 n feels an alliance with the SW will serve him better hence this statement by him,but if truly fairness equity n federal character is to be strictly applied then the SE deserves the presidency come 2023,all the talk of ipob,Biafra etc from elements in SE will certainly varnish for good if n when the SE gets n complete their presidential term just the same way NADECO,RADIO KUDIRAT N JUNE12 varnished after 1999,the SE stands to loose more if Nigeria descends into chaos due to their widespread investments in the country so I believe the SE never intends to cause any problem for the country,all the noise is just about a cry for justice, it's however true that the igbos have committed lot of political blunders in the past but who is perfect?.

You are right but the SE are saying they will not contest but prefer Atiku or Kwankwanso in 2023, so there is nothing we can do.

chikeson2000:
Likewise, it will be unfair to deny southeast presidency in 2023 b/cos other
regions in south have gotten a shot at exalted position

He made a mistake.
We are all voting for Okorocha for President (APC) in 2023.

You can vote for Atiku (PDP) in 2023.

Austinoiz:
I have always said it that Sani needs some brain checks, he is no longer in tune with reality. How can Afonjas lead us in 2023, we IBO's ain't slave... Over our dead body. It's Igbo presidency in 2023 or Fulani herdsmen leadership continues

Thou, my good friend is a very wise man, for only a man fulleth of the wisdom of the gods knowst a thing as this.

May thy days be long sire.

proxillin:
Tinubu will never be president mark my word.

Those almajiri will not vote for tinubu at the expense of any mallam...lolz...

U remeber the KKK states...lolz...they didn't vote atiku because he had a christian wife..they said he is not a Gud muslim..

Relax Bros,

Atiku's mandate will start from the day he is sworn-in.
They may not be any 2023 Election.

kettykin:
We will definitely see the real loosers by 2023

This revelation is very new to NIGERIANS.

So the SE/SS made it possible for Obasanjo to be president








I laugh in INEC Server!

kettykin:
They will tell you south east are loosers forgetting that if not for the south east and south south voting pattern and insistence on power shift in 2919 Obasanjo would never have smelt the position

What if PDP chose Atiku-Udom ticket in 2023, will he still support PDP?

Onijagidijagan:
Go and support ur igbo northern candidate for presidency..is very clear you're pdp candidate. Be loyal to your PDP party.

You don't seems to understand politics very well.
The S/West, like anyother Region is not greedy but politicians may be.

Buhari is the President of Nigeria and what exactly do you think the S/West should do about it? Remove Buhari before his tenure ends?

Odingo1:
SW is very greedy, despite occupation of their land by Fulani militias, they are holding on to Buhari at detriment of their own region.

Obasanjo from their own region recently finished 8 years in power with another 8 years of VP.

No you are very wrong.

From a very impeccable source, the 2023 Presidential election will produce a winner from the S/East.
All these talks is just to divert attention from the person.
Even Buhari, Tinubu, Oshiomole and El-Rufai had all agreed that the SE will produce the President in 2023.

hammerVJ:
FAKE NEWS FROM AFONJA THIRD WORLD MEDIA...

AND WHO IS BUHARI BY 2023?





2023 presidency will destroy Nigeria.


The way Yoruba are going about it have cost so many to lose their life already.


They even supported Buhari thinking he would die.


This is 2019, from Abiola to unfair and many more blackmail will be rolled out by Yoruba media to claim right of Presidency 2023.

This simple analysis is beyond his level of comprehension.

Printerscanner:
Current JAMB Registrar Prof. Ishaq Olanrewaju Oloyede is a Yoruba man while the Chairman of the JAMB Governing Board is Dr Emmanuel Ndukwe who is an Igbo man. JAMB appointed a Northerner to head a committee in JAMB, how does that translates to Northerners working together against other Nigerians? Are you always like this or today is just your off day?

I was just pulling your leg.

My point is that there may not be much enthusiasm to vote in the stronghold of the PDP like the S/East. (2015=> 2.5millions for PDP, 2019=> 1.6 Million votes for PDP)

Did I say you are in Igbo? .


Apart from all these, there is a Divine angle to Leadership, though many people may not agree.

Nobody becomes President of a Country by mistake, it's predestined.

I don't make statements with finality that a person can or cannot become something. Only God can say that with authority.

If it's part of the Destiny of Tinubu to be President, he will become President.

By the way, why do you like insulting People?

SMBH:
I'm not igbo... Not every yoruba fell for tinubus deception... Oni ranu

How Sir?

Many Nigerians supported Atiku because of Peter Obi

Mobi47:
Nigerians due to tribalism have failed to see the MOSES in Peter Obi...what a man

I expect the Devil to have been killed or at least fatally wounded after over 1000 years of stoning him during Hajj.






















This religious rite is not adding up!

I will rather worship a God who is my father than an unloving and cruel god who treat me as a slave, instructing his worshippers to kill humans for having contrary views and being a thorn on the flesh of the human race.

Which one is better between a god that has nothing need for a son but have needs for Billions of servants?

yetunsbay:
lol God bears no son but servants (prophets)

Since over 1000 years of stoning the Devil during Hajj, the Devil ought to have been dead by now or at least fatally wounded but he appears to be waxing stronger.


















This rite is not adding up.

Since you know what God planned for Tinubu ( and it's to remove him), I will like to ask you two questions;


1) Are you God's P.A?










2) What's God's plan for YOU?

palldepall:
[uote author=nkwuocha post=76099849]Lol
What God plan for TINUBU is not O te ge.
God's plan for TINUBU is to remove him suddenly from this earth,just the way he removed his sons he used as sacrifices.His time is almost here.
Remember God's judgment is often swift....

And when that happens,it will be blood against blood,greed against greed and thugs against thugs...They will kill themselves and be at each other's throats all to grab the powerful seat of TINUBU the godfather, and sure it will be for nothing as his death will mark the end of godfatherism in Lagos.I pray not to be in Lagos when it happens because e go bloody mehn!.


Who is this mad man,if u don't have anything to comments on jagaban is better for you to keep your dirty mouth

Stop saying what you don't know.

Only 5 LGAs (less than 10% of Lagos State) was Federal Capital.

Ikeja, Mushin, Shomolu, Ajeromi/Ifelodun etc were never part of the Federal capital just like only Enugu city was ever Capital of Eastern Region and not the whole of Enugu State.

franchasng:
What kind of nonsense comparison are you trying to make

Lagos has been the capital city of Nigeria since 1960 after it was moved from Calabar. This means Lagos enjoyed federal government development just like Abuja today. Can any Abuja Mayor claim he built or developed Abuja to what it is today 90% of developments in Abuja is built by Federal Government. and mind you, Abuja became Nigeria's capital from 1991 december, now compare it with Lagos that became the capital city of Nigeria from 1914 january.

It is Federal government of Nigeria that built all the magnificent structures you see in Lagos today, quote me anywhere any day any time.

Name the structures Tinubu built in Lagos, name one if not planting flowers, building roundabouts and brt lanes, what else can Tinubu + Fashola + Ambode boast of as their developmental achievement in Lagos since democracy kicked off in 1999

3rd Mainland bridge and most bridges linking Lagos cities were built by federal government of Nigeria under the military government, and most of these structures are dilapidated before your own eyes without Lagos government being able to even maintain them.

Go round Lagos, most inter city roads are gone....Lagos have no road again.

The only laudable project started by Lagos is the Badagry railway to west africa which has been lingering since 2007...

The developments you see in Lagos are built by private organizations and individuals who reside in Lagos and have their investments in Lagos...Lagos is dying and going back due to Tinubu's grip and greed, kiss the truth

Democracy is a journey and not a destination. Democracy hasn't been practiced for long in this country and many people have weaved so many myths around simple democratic excercises like elections in this Country.

If we had practiced unbroken Democracy since 1960, by now it would have been cleared to all that any Nigerian citizen can be president and can defeat any citizen from any part of the Country. It will eventually happen, it's a question of time.













































Fortunately, anything that has happened before is no longer an impossibility!

Ziggylady:
No one is interested in these history lessons narrated and seen from your myopic prisms..least of all me...Too much has gone down btwn then and now yet you cant see that.

If you are in-tune with happenings,you would have known that the Obasanjo and Jonathan Administrations did the Northern elites in which has seen them vowing not to let power slip from their fingers AGAIN.

There is no reason why they would leave theirs and vote yours when yorubas too had their 8yr stint with OBJ...If you have the audacity to want power in 2023,so do they...You do not have two heads.

Besides, their suffocating bias towards the atrociious deeds of Fulani Herdsmen NOW should tell you whats up not Abiola/Tofa anomaly 27trs ago!

Read and ask around instead of basking in this delusions of grandeur...Every notable Northerner so far has insinuated or out-rightly spoken in favour of the North retaining power post-buhari,yet you are hell bent on going with what the voices in your head are telling you.

It does sir.

There is no politician that has ever won an election without being popular.

To win an election ,you need


*Popularity
*Acceptability
*Political structure
*Adequate preparations
*Money
* Factor-X .


If you are Religious, X can be a Divine factor (God, Luck, Destiny, Providence etc).

hisexcellency34:
I agree. He is newsman and any news about him attracts attention but doesnt translate to votes during election

Archeological excavations in the Middle East has brought out 3000 year old Assyrian, Babylonian, Akkadian and Moabites priestess and goddesses wearing Hijabs.

The Hijab is a mode of Dressing of Women in the Middle East and it definitely predated the advent of Islam... it's more of cultural than religious outfits.

Printerscanner:
Hijab is Arab culture which has been fused into Islam. God said women should preserve, reserve and cover themselves for their own dignity. God did not say that women should dress like Ijebu Masquerades.The Arabs have been covering their females like masquerades even before our Prophet was born, I think it is because they are in the desert where winds blow sand a lot. I am a Muslim but I know several of my Muslim comrades will disagree with me.

But why do you think that Tinubu2023 is always in the news everyday?
This thread is getting to the 7th page because it involves Tinubu.
Please be honest with your answer, which politician in Nigeria is being discussed everyday like Tinubu?

hisexcellency34:
Even in Lagos, he is only popular among APC members

Most of these kids writing rubbish on Nairaland don't know how a President emerges in Nigeria.

Ziggylady:
Tinubu will not be President of a Nigeria Igbos are part of...we have made that loud and clear

He can only be president in arewa-odua republic...Writting junks and lies in publications of Trump begging Buhari for thieffnubbu to be President will not fly...

Go and book-mark that..

I hope you know that:























2023: No Election in Biafra?

SMBH:
Shut the fu..ck up... That drug loard won't and can't be our president..

Unfortunately, you have no say on who becomes the Chairman of your Local Government let alone the President of Nigeria.


#No Referendum, No Election

Burruchaga71:
Tinubu can never in this world be my president never

Is it not Jubril of Sudan that's ruling us?

jrusky:
Pls guys stop posting fake news. Who was there when the Guinea president mentioned Tinubu name and lobbied for him as per 2023 presidency And how is it Guinea headache lobbying who to be Nigeria president

Pls guys say something else. What do you people take Nigeria for that its now Guinea president to be lobbying who to rule Nigeria haba pls guys make una slow down nah Buhari never dense reach that stage nah.

What concern NIGERIANS with these?

ChristianEast:
begging a Guinea pig to beg a cow for the ticket shows something you dont know.

We don't care.

We are returning power to the Izala quota systems moslems.

Tijanniyaa Sufi vs Izala Salafi

That would be a great match to watch
