Remove federal allocations and many states will seize to exist. Many states in nigeria are just bullshiits including my own.

These States will and the corruption in many of them will reduce drastically.

Corruption rates in Tanzania, Rwanda and Namibia are lower than that of Nigeria and they are better managed than Nigeria largely because they don't have free money like rents collected on crude oil so they have to work to get money.

The problem with 2019 election is the location of the server. Some people believe that the server is in space, some people believe that someone has stolen the server. Do you by any chance know where the server is? That’s where the election result can be thoroughly counted and verified

I laugh in INEC server!

Penguin2:
My point exactly.

Tambuwal is a bad product for PDP to manage.

On what pedigree would he campaign with?

He doesn’t even come top 30 among serving Governors so I don’t know what Wike saw in him that he wants to make him PDP flagbearer.

PDP’s brightest chance is a repeat of 2019 ticket.

Atiku/Obi2023!

They won in 2019 but were robbed. They will win convincingly in 2023.

Sen Anyim Pius Anyim is likely to be a compromise candidate for the PDP.


One 'strong' prophet had recently declared that the next president will come from the S/East.

hollah123:
this is what i don't like,u tell us not to vote tinubu then give us another option.

If u tell person make him no follow one way then u give him another alternative so he won't b stranded.

Tinubu is not good,agreed

Who do u want us to vote for?

Most of the anti-Tinubu guys online aren't really interested in making Nigeria great but they just oppose Tinubu out of tribalism and envy

ImembaN:
...
The reason for all this is because we Ngwa are not Igbos...
And we should not be ashamed to say it

No wonder, Rotimi Amaechi said he is more Igbo than Abaribe because every Igbo man understand the meaning of his surname, Amaechi but many of the Igbos don't understand the meaning of Abaribe.

Abagworo:
Igbo is an amalgamation of same people that lived separately for many centuries. Each people felt different from the other and the effects remain till date as seen on this thread.

All of Igbo have put aside many of these differences except few isolated cases like Ikwerre, Etche et al who live in Rivers State. However politically we might not be able to agree soon as a result of greed from one part that believes it is either them or nothing.

You seems to always have a good grasp of the situations in Igboland.

Crayola1:
I once recall someone telling me that many Fulani people like to make fun of the cattle herding Fulani people, even going as far as to call them derogatory names...could you elighten us on this issue

Yes, it's true.


They call them Mbororo.

aljharem:
OP

Now you words just good to show that you are bitter about something ONE Ngwa man did to you and thus you are categorising all Ngwa as the same. Well they are not !!

If you have a personal problem with your friend or be it family member please go settle it and stop posting it on the internet. That is the hight of Ignorance you just displayed.

Moreover ChienyeN is an Ngwa man and from his post so far he seem to be a nice man.

If you find out very well, one Ngwa man snatched his babe in the past and he is yet to move on from the heart break.

specialmati:
most of you lots are funny who be igbos

Okay, Atiku/PDP will win in the S/East.

Hmn, Jubril from Sudan!

You first need to win the presidential primaries before campaigning from State to State.

In any case, the presidential election will be conducted in the 36 States plus FCT with millions of voters who may not necessarily share your opinions, views, prejudices and biases.

Tingotoe:
This Bola Tinubu seems to be getting an early momentum for a shot at the presidency o and it scares the sh**t out of me

Why are you scared sir?


Atiku is cuming.

DSC7:
General Summary of the Atiku v Buhari supporters debate on social media.

Buhari has handled the Nigerian economy worse than any Nigerian leader in history.

— Atiku is a thief.

Buhari is a nepotist who prioritises his own over others.

— Atiku is a thief.

Buhari is not only a thief, he actively endorses theft in his government by having a cabinet of criminals and thieving politicians and also by endorsing people who have been caught red-handed stealing and terming them as honest people. His government has been wasteful and he and his family have lived above his means all through his administration.

— Ehn yes but Atiku is a thief.

Buhari is frail and has over the past few weeks showed us how much his physical and mental health is in a shocking state of deterioration.

— Hmmm. But, but Atiku is a thief.

Yes but his economy was in a much better state than the current economy.

— Ya. True. But Atiku is a thief.

Nigeria is currently going through an unprecedented level of poverty and social degradation due to the general incompetence of this government.

— Hmmm true. But Atiku is a thief.

Buhari is an ethnic bigot who actively watched his people slaughter others over grazing and did nothing to stop them even though he showed his iron hands against a less threatening IPOB protesters.

— Atiku is a thief.

How does this relate to the topic sir?

izombie:
They should take their presidency and fuuuuuuuck off. We want out. How difficult is it to understand? Nigeria is unfixable, why? Because a fixed nigeria means the hausa fulani will have nothing, they will never have any say in Nigeria any more. So the hausa fulani will never allow Nigeria to be fixed. We want out.

Okay, Jubril Al-Sudani will create Biafra for you.

Biafrarep:
There is a new school of thought, albeit championed by dishonest and degenerate people that Igbos shouldn't be allowed to rule Nigeria because their people are agitating for Biafra. This is not just a very lame excuse but also a wicked ploy by some selfish and wicked politicians who are hell-bent on foisting their personal ambitions on all Nigerians. They don't mind if such ambitions ends up destroying Nigeria in the long run provided they achieve their immediate gratification.

You didn't deny Fulanis presidency because of herdsmen killings. You didn't deny SS because of bunkering and militancy. But you want to deny Igbos presidency because some Igbos who are fed up with Nigeria want out. Anyways, it's up to them, this is probably their last chance to decide if truly they want Igbos to share a country with them.

Do Igbos have any reason to feel marginalized? The answer is a resounding YES! A civil war that ended in 1970 has continued to be used as excuse to punish Igbo generations till date.

Igbos have billions of dollars worth of assets all over of Nigeria and for them to put that aside to fight agitate for break up shows the extent they've been frustrated in Nigeria.

Black people naturally tend to be unreasonable when it matters most, and those in Nigeria are worse off. They believe more in brute force when intelligence and proactiveness could save them.

Denying Igbos the presidency will give IPOB the critical mass they need to achieve Biafra, underrate them at your own peril. Igbo elites are the ones sabotaging the push for Biafra because they feel that with patience, Igbos can be fully reintegrated in Nigeria. So, they try to reign in the younger generation of Igbos who have given up on Nigeria.

Now, 2023 is the litmus test. It is going to be a make or break year in the annals of Nigeria. This country is already too fragmented and weak to withstand a collective push by Igbos for Biafra and I believe that denying Igbos again in 2023 will be a vote for Biafra by all Nigerians.

Personally, my instincts yearn for Biafra while another voice tells me that Nigeria can still be saved. However, 2023 will 100% convince me. I also believe my sentiments are shared by majority of Igbos.

If you love Nigeria, you must support Igbo presidency now!

But Sen Anyim Pius Anyim has declared that he will join the presidential race.

DOTian:
IPOB propaganda? Honestly, I never listened to any IPOB stuff. Just telling you what I Know as a good student of history. . Upto the mid 90s, NITEL and the managerial staffs of major government banks in the east were dominated by the Yorubas! It seems to me like that you guys are way too young to even understand the enermousity of the havoc caused by your forbearers. When one tries to educate you, you start calling him IPOB. It's crazy.

Post war , The Yorubas headed most of the parastatals while the northerners controlled the armed forces. Answer this: how many graduates came from northern Nigeria at independence? Compare that to the figures from your South West and the East. The north had little or none. By 1976, the Yoruba corruption of the civil service has become so bizarre and insane that even Murtala started a mass sacking of civil servants! That was how his "action President" status came to be. You know nothing. ...

You aren't well informed and already drown in the pond of your bigotry laced with ignorance, so there's no need to continue to discuss this matter with you.

Beebah2000:
Lol
Women matter no dey finish for una mouth

But it's the truth.

Gireiboy:
We northerners prefer armed conflict,that will enable us to finish what we started in 1967

Are you happy with what armed Banditry and Armed Boko Haramism has done to your Adamawa State?

Isobug:
It's a lie, He instigated all those problems

So who instigated the problems in PDP, APGA, Labour Party and others?

DOTian:
You are comparing apples and oranges..
Nigerias airways, Nigerias shipping line, first generation banks! Leventis them. Insurance companies.. Even government parastatals flooded with your people post 1966 were all ran down with corruption! INTEL, NEPA, REFINERIES. Even The NNPC, an oil monopoly was declared bankrupt! The northerners didn't have the graduates then. The easterners were chased out. You hyjacked all these and ran them down. That's the history of how we got here..

That you somehow believe this IPOB propaganda that one tribe, the Yorubas which is just one out of the 300 tribes in Nigeria were the only ones working and running public corporations owned by the whole Nigeria shows the level of your education and intelligence.

Even if you haven't been born when NITEL, Nigeria Airways, Nigeria National Shipping Lines were in operation but relied on IPOB propaganda as the gospel truths , why not ask educated Nigerians who are above 50years if Yorubas were the only Nigerians working in those Federal Government companies.

JaroMan:
Tinubu is smart but not wise. He has continued to burn bridges to the detriment of the party. And he's been doing this against foundational members of the party.
He did it to Rochas using Adams Oshiomole via Gulak.
He did it to former Zamfara gov
He did to Ngige in Anambra.
The party is just living on life support and keen observers know this. That is why there seems to be silence in the party.

If you are wise, you ought to have known that it's wrong to assume that every conflict within the APC is caused by Tinubu.


In politics, it's natural to have conflicts and in Nigerian political parties, where people are more interested in their self interests than anything else, conflicts is very common.

All the people you mentioned experienced conflicts in their HOME Chapters of the APC due to clashes of interests with other stakeholders in their home chapters of the party.


Wherever there's a conflict in a party, alignments and re-arrangements of polical players occur naturally. This has nothing to with Tinubu.

The phenomena are the same even in APGA, PDP, Labour Party etc.

FallenShitHole:
The above bolded goes to confirm what we all know about the afonjas. The most corrupt people on earth. They ran down every nigeria institution they handled through massive corruption. All the institutions they inherited through the 1972 indigenization decree instituted by awolowo after making sure that Igbos are out of the equation because of the 20£ to any amount we had then on our bank accounts. The yorubas bought every nigeria company then at peanut prices and still ran them aground. Do you want to talk about the nigeria airways? The most brutally murdered institution through corruption by the afonjas.

1) Corruption is not about tribe.

2) Companies fold up from so many reasons , beyond corruption.

3) The companies were run by peoples from different tribes.

4) Even Igbo companies like African Continental Bank (ACB), Savannah Bank (Nwobodo's bank), Zik's West African Pilot Newspapers, Champion Newspapers of Nnwanyanwu, Ekene DiliChukwu Transport all folded up due to mismanagement.


5) Pascal Dozie was the Chairman of Nigeria Airways when the company went South and he was recommended for prosecution but the politics of tribalism (where corrupt people supported by their tribes claim they are being persecuted) made it impossible for him to be properly sanctioned.

ScamHunter:
The key adjectives are Hausa-Fulani: Immoral, pleasure loving and depends on luck or chance

Yoruba : Betrayal, disloyal, backstabbing, treacherous, controlled by lust for money and greedy

Igbo : Hardworking, industrious, religious, can't be pushed around and fights oppression

A hundred years later, we can see the reason the country is moving in circles without progress. So when people ask you why the last time there was progress in these parts was when the colonialists were around, the reason is that the country has been governed based on luck like a game of chance by a particular group.

When I was growing up, I often wondered why older Igbo never speak well of Yoruba. If it was because of Biafra, were they the only ones that fought against us? Even the pogrom was mainly in the north. Everything started making sense to me in 2015 and also during End Sars protest. These are not people you can trust and not get disappointed according to Mr Lugard.

This is why every sensible person knows the tribe that has what it takes to make the country move forward, but envy, jealousy and hatred won't let these tribes see the source of their redemption.
This is the same reason they're afraid of Igbo exit. Less than a generation after Igbo exits, we would be competing with Europe while you guys will still be having national discourse on cattle and colonies of cattle.

Thank goodness, the analysis is from those who formed you guys into a country.

This is bumkum,

1) Lord Lugard never wrote these qoutes.

2) Even if Lord Lugard truly said so, it was from his biased and jaundiced views in
1919 and not backed by either Logic or Science.

3) It is wrong to assume that the problems with Nigeria are caused by only a particular tribe.

4) At least since 1999, Igbos have been ruling Igbo States with considerable authonomy, yet the Igbo States are still battling with all features of underdevelopment typical of most African communities.

5) Development is premised on actions and not on sentimental feelings or wishful thinking.

Says marauding fulani Muslim, where their head no dey fit carry science and technology ....... Go to ABA and Nnewi see things for yourself

All parts of Nigeria have hard working and lazy peoples.


Some of the leather used in shoe manufacturing at Aba are produced in the North.

Every day, scores of Lorries loaded with wooden planks leave Osun and Ondo States for the S/East via Onitsha.


All parts of Nigeria are industrious in different areas.

kingawothefirst:
Even though I’m not an afonja, this is fake and propaganda. Luggard never said none of those things, at least I haven’t been able to find the legit quote, so please cite is legitimate source that shows that this is a direct quote from Luggard.

Till then, the OP along with the propagandist need to stop posting fake news!

I have been seeing these propaganda being circulated by some igbo guys at Newspapers Stand since the time of PDP 1999 presidential primaries .

Emergingnation:
Yes, we are very industrious, when imminent desintegration take place, within 10yrs South East will turn to Japan of Africa

Continue to deceive yourself sir.



If you are going to turn to Japan within 10years, your States should at least be like Malaysia or Turkey by now.

What are you presently doing that are similar to what the people of Japan are doing?

Zenithh:
Land of the developers

Ipob will not see these dead infrastructure and fight for a better living.

They prefer to be shouting Tinubu Tinubu upandan.

Penguin2:
It’s the turn of Igbos.

But if that can’t happen, then let the Fulanis have it again.

Are you in charge of dishing out the presidency to tribes?

Moikiitos:
A VP that is NOT courageous enough to stand up against his boss bad leadership is not worth my 1-vote. Sorry to say, we need a leader in Nigeria that can stand, speak and be courageous enough to take bold step irrespective of ethnicity for the people of Nigeria. NIGERIANS DESERVE BETTER. Good eligible voters of Nigeria, open your eyes and vote for someone that has been outspoken and vocal (ie GENUINE) against any bad leadership we have had up till now, in this now shit hole we now call Nigeria.

We all deserve better than what we have now. 2023 should be our time to make the right decision that will drive this country aggressively to progress, growth and development or be doom.

The power lays with us the voters not those vicious vultures of modern day politicians in Nigeria. We're the driver of this country called Nigeria. We can decide which destination we so choose to take her to: To GREATNESS as we all long and hope for or be DOOM.

But you didn't name this better candidate.

discusant:
A foolish Obong does not understand that from rotation formula, it’s the turn of the Igbo to succeed PMB in Aso Rock.


The Obong does not understand that if rotation is not adhered to, nothing shall make VP Osinbajo win presidential election.

Obong spoke like one of those unintelligent elders from the SS who journeyed to Kaduna in 1967 and begged for non Igbo speaking areas of the old eastern region be carved out of Biafra. Thereafter, all the oil wells in the Southsouth got seized by politicians and soldiers from the north. Pollution from oil exploration ravaged the Southsouth and extends to the southeast.

Honestly I don't know how igbo and Biafra came into this matter.
