Politics › Re: Umahi Under Fire Over ‘Not Igbo Turn’ Comment by Penguin2: 8:31pm On Sep 28
Reference:
When that 12 years or 8 years you talk about comes around, another reason why the south easterners are 'unfit' will arise again.

Then his likes will join a long line of victims from the late Alex Ekwueme to the ultra liberal, ultra cosmopolitan Rochas Okorocha who was told he did not 'do enough' to warrant widespread acceptance from the 'owners of Nigeria'.

No south easterners will ever do enough unfortunately.

This thing has been a recurring theme since the civil war across both civilian and military regimes. Nigeria has refused to move on.
My point exactly!

A wise man learns from what is happening to others.

We have long list of Igbos who have tried to align in the past and got nothing from it.

So, it will be stupid of Peter Obi to toe that same line.

If the thumbs of northerners will break if they thumbprint for an Igbo man then let Tinubu continue.

AMINDA:
No single region can produce a president without an alliance with another region. That theory was already proved in 2023 and Obi did not win. Why does he continue to do the same thing the same way while expecting a different result?
So alliance with Kwankwaso is not alliance abi?

It will only qualify as alliance if the Igbo man was playing second fiddle, right?
Politics › Nigerian Forces Disguised As Biafran Soldiers To Kill Minorities (video) by Penguin2(op): 2:44pm On Sep 28
A man who seems like a retired soldier who seems to have fought on the Nigerian side during the Biafran War has revealed how some Nigerian forces disguised as Biafran soldiers to kill minority ethnic nationalities within the then Biafran territory. This caused the minority people to start hating on Igbos because they thought Igbos had turned against them.

Gradually the truth is coming out.
[quote]During the Biafran War, Nigerian soldiers disguised as Biafran soldiers to kill Biafran minorities and instigate hatred between them and the Igbos. This war tactic explains accounts from some Calabar and other Niger Delta people claiming alleged Biafran soldiers burnt their houses and killed their people during the war. @trigottista @Manlike_ED[/quote

Let me tell you why every southeasterner is seeing Umahi as an ijiot and a shortsighted efulefu.

With Obi, the Igbos have a realistic chance of presidency in about 7 months.

With Tinubu the Igbos can only hope for presidency in 12 years time; with no guarantee.

With Atiku the Igbos can only hope for presidency in 8 years time with no guarantee.

Now, tell me the choice you would make as a sensible Igbo person.

Politics › 2027: Obi’s Votes From Kano Alone Will Cancel Tinubu And Atiku’s SE & SS Votes. by Penguin2(op): 9:26am On Sep 27
One of the masterstrokes that Obi struck going into the 2027 election is getting Kwankwaso to be his running mate. His 2023 running mate couldn’t even win his polling unit.

Now, the activities of NDC so far in Kano has been so refreshing and has pointed to some interesting results that await us in 2027.

Going by activities so far, it’s safe to say that Peter Obi will win Kano in 2027.

But even if he doesn’t, the votes he will garner in Kano alone will be enough to cancel out whatever inroads Tinubu and Atiku will make in Southeast and Southsouth combined.

I think mentioning Atiku here is mere academic because he is currently nonexistent in any state of the South; not even in middle belt. Which always leaves me wondering how his supporters are thinking he would win the election.

Since APC and Tinubu minions think they can threaten and try to cow everyone with violence, they will be made to understand that they do not have monopoly of violence.

Richtaiwo:
I’m a realist, I don’t waste my time entertaining impossibilities. I prefer discussing things with at least a 0.1 probability of happening. But when you’re talking about a 0.00000012 chance, I simply don’t have enough time to waste on mathematical fiction.
Yeah, like how you lots said he will not win one Local Government in 2023, he ended up winning 12 states.

You said he will not garner up to a million votes, he garnered over 6million votes.

You said he will not win, he won but INEC switched off IREV to conjure numbers and declare Tinubu.

If all your ‘realistic’ predictions of 2023 came crashing like a pack of cards, shouldn’t make it obvious to you that you are engaging in another erroneous thinking as 2027 approaches?

When the lady in Yobe told them to buy helmet in the north, they said it was Ngozi speaking from Afikpo.

APC will learn new lessons in 2027.

The audacity of Tinubu to pauperize Nigerians, engage in brazen profligacy and nepotism and then unleash his supporters to insult Nigerians trying to call him to order, and still want to come back as president.

Not even an INEC with Remi Tinubu as Chairman and Seyi Tinubu as secretary can save Tinubu.
Politics › Kingsley Moghalu Rejects Appointment Into Atiku’s Presidential Campaign Council by Penguin2(op): 10:27am On Sep 25
Kingsley Moghalu has rejected appointment into Atiku’s Presidential Campaign Council.

Not interested in selling a bad product, I guess.
I am surprised to see a statement from @atiku and @ADCNig campaign team including my name as a member of former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar’s policy team for the 2027 presidential campaign.

For the record:

1. I was not consulted and did not give my consent to my name being published as a member of the ADC candidate’s policy team.

2. I am NOT, in fact a member of Atiku’s policy team, even unofficially or in any advisory capacity.

3. I have quit partisan politics in Nigeria since 2022. I have maintained, and continue to maintain, my non-partisan posture in our country’s national affairs. I am not a member or sympathizer of any political party in Nigeria.

4. My primary engagement is as President of @IGETAfrica , a non-partisan public policy think tank and executive education academy, and as CEO of Sogato Strategies, a geopolitical risk and regulatory strategy advisory firm.

5. I remain committed to my country, Nigeria and its progress, but such commitment does not have to entail ANY partisan alignment. I have adopted the path of statesmanship, not partisanship.

Well done to Atiku.

But I hope the north doesn’t complain when Wike contests the presidency in 2031 since Atiku doesn’t see the need to respect zoning.

I will personally be Wike’s biggest supporter when the time comes.

AMINDA:
Clearly. He had the entire APC propaganda machinery, Tinubu's spokespersons, ministers like FFK and Ambassadors like Festus Keyamo going round in circles and even issuing threats but he still came out on top. The lowest point of the entire saga is seeing supposed presidential spokespersons calling Von Batten "Okeke" and "Ikemefuna" as if it were some type of slur.
I was laughing when they were doing that as if the man ever denied his roots.

Or maybe they don’t know that change of name is a legitimate procedure when someone acquires the passport and citizenship of another country.


They are all hiding their heads in shame now their tin god has been embarrassed.

While Macron is at UNGA, Tinubu is hiding in Macron’s toilet.

Such an embarrassment.
Politics › Tinubu’s UNGA Absence: Did Von Batten Win? by Penguin2(op): 9:06am On Sep 24
When the Karl Von Batten agency resurrected and re-amplified the Tinubu Drug Case, a lot of people dismissed them. Some even resorted to ad hominem by attacking the person of the owner of the agency, calling him ‘Ikechukwu’ from Anambra as if that would change the damage he was doing to Tinubu’s reputation in Washington DC.

Prior to then, Tinubu appointed permanent representative to the UN, Jimoh Ibrahim, had boasted that Tinubu would sit next to Trump at the UNGA.

The mission of Tinubu’s camp was simple, to lobby and soften the ground for Tinubu to attend UNGA and have a personal photograph with President Trump which they would have automatically milked as an endorsement.

But then came Karl ‘Ikechukwu’ Von Batten who ran a massive campaign against Tinubu and reminding the world of the history of the man that sits as Nigeria’s president.

Maybe Trump was even already considering meeting with Tinubu. But with such recent exposé, especially with the powers around DC being informed as well, Trump must have been forced to backtrack.

And that was how Ikechukwu Von Batten defeated Tinubu, his alleged $9million dollar lobbying contract in America, and did Tinubu’s supporters ‘shut up’.

Ikechukwu 100 v 0 Tinubu and supporters.

As at June 1st this year, he said Tinubu will win...he won't support Obi.

He is still going toeet Binani, the same lady he chased out of ADC. Who is Babachir really working for?

I wish him well in his new assignment nonetheless.
Or maybe new facts are now available to him that has nullified his previous position which is what informed his current decision.

You like to doubt it, but Obi is Nigeria’s next president.

The leader of the NDC, Sen Seriake Dickson, has directed the ex-SGF, Babachir Lawal, who defected to the party today to take charge of the party leadership in Northeast and North Central.

Under Babachir Lawal’s leadership, LP did tremendously well in the Northeast in 2023 but the votes was changed. He will do well again and this time nobody will change the votes again because Nigerians are ready.
Today, in the company of members of the National Working Committee and other NDC officials, it was a pleasure to receive and welcome respected elderstatesman and former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Engr. Babachir Lawal, to the
Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC).


In my remarks, I thanked him, on behalf of the National Chairman and members of the National Working Committee, for believing in our party.

I requested him to provide leadership and support in coordinating, guiding and strengthening the party in the North-East and the North Central Zone, as well as provide leadership and support for all our candidates, counting on his experience, leadership and extensive network to further strengthen the party.

Once again I warmly welcome Engr. Babachir Lawal to the NDC and look forward to working with him and other committed Nigerians as we continue to strengthen our party and advance the cause of multiparty democracy and good governance in our country.

NDC all the way!

Culture › Asagba Of Asaba Calls For Igbo Unity At Ohaneze Ndigbo Delta State (video) by Penguin2(op): 7:46pm On Sep 22
The Asagba of Asaba, speaking at Ohaneze Ndigbo Public Enlightenment in Delta State, has called for the unity of Ndigbo.

Speaking in Igbo throughout his address, he went on to raise some points which includes:

1) The every other Igbo subgroup association should be dissolved to allow Ohaneze Ndigbo become the sole voice of the entire Igbo race.

2) He advocated that only Igbo should be spoken during Ohaneze meetings instead of English; asking the audience if there was anyone who couldn’t understand his Asaba dialect to which everyone agreed they could understand.

3) Lastly, he advocated for financial independence for Ohaneze so that it would stop being controlled by governors who currently finance and, as a consequence, control it.

Igbo unification is materializing.
Asagba of Asaba calls for Igbo unity at the just-concluded Ọhaneze Ndigbo public enlightenment forum in Delta State.

If any Bini person can translate the language spoken here, I will delete my account.

fergie001:
This is an election Obi could have stayed out of because he will return poor numbers he never imagined. However, I think his aim is to stop Tinubu. Without Obi on the ballot, there will be apathy in the SE. The SE is a zone before now who do not even care about elections. They sit in their houses on election days to discuss the 1979 election whilst the present one is ongoing, Obi changed that. It's also a zone where rich men won't come and decide the votes, you will be beaten in the PU in your house even if you are Governor.

Election rigging is helped by apathy! So, if they come out like in 2023, it will be very difficult and tight because everyone will vote for 'their' son.
Obi is not contesting to win like in 2023, safe to say he is contesting to stop the President.
.
It's my opinion.
Obi needn’t stay out of this election because he will win the election and this time nobody can rig it.

I told you this about Otti in Abia in 2023 and I’m telling you now.
Culture › Re: Agbor People Did Not Migrate From Benin - Dien Of Agbor (Video) by Penguin2(op): 7:52am On Sep 22
Antoeni:
Wetin the Small Boy King Know? He Should Ask Questions,

OBI OF AGBOR, DEIN BENJAMIN IKENCHUKWU KEAGBOREKUZI, set a global record as the youngest monarch in the entire universe at his installation in 1979, at a mere 28 months ( Two(2) years and four(4) months).

This historic event is recorded in the 1981 Edition of the Guinness Book of World Records, set in the wake of the untimely death of his father and then reigning OBI of AGBOR, JAMES OBIKA IKENCHUKU, was later to set the pace for the trail-blazing life of the unusual king.

Upon his coronation he was taken away immediately to the Palace of the Oba of Benin, Oba Erediauwa for save keeping, from whence he was taken abroad for forester care and study before coming back to begin reign at an matured age.

The Obi of Agbor returned to Agbor in 2000 at age 22 years.

BRIEF HISTORY OF IKA PEOPLE.
Geographically, Ika speaking people are found in the North-West part of Delta State. Ika shares borders with Binis, in the West with the Ishans in the North, with Aniochas in the East and with Ukwuanis in the south.

Politically, Ika people are mainly found in two local government areas, Ika North East and Ika South local Government Areas, Delta State both were created in 1991 from a single Ika Local Government Area, Delta State.

Ika South and Ika North East Local Government Areas, occupy a land area of 117.45 Square Kilometres (Delta State Government website, 1999) with a Total Population of about 240,000 people.

There are other Ika speaking people that are political outside the Ika North East and Ika South Local Government Areas.

Agbor kingdom is in Ika South, Delta State, Nigeria. The indigenes of Agbor town are Ika people. Agbor remains the largest of Ika communities with close geographical proximity to Benin City.

This proximity has been azsource of constant conflict with Benin, even uptil 1897AD when the British invaded Benin.

Agbor is considered as the “most politically and militarily powerful of all Ika clans as recorded by Chukwu Ebuka and Iwueze Awele Success. The conflict with Benin which lasted until 1897AD may have also swelled the military prowess of the community and helped to make it a force to reckon with within the Ika nation (Simpson, 1936).
You’re calling the king small boy but nothing you shared here contradicted him.

If anything, it stated that there has been conflict between the Ika people and Bini until 1897.

So, you see you are not making sense?

I must confess that I’m surprised because I thought Seyi Makinde was just another presidential candidate for the sake of it but his recent activities show someone serious about the contest.

Bear in mind that Oyo State is supposed be part of Tinubu’s stronghold and one of Southwest’s largest voting bloc just after Lagos.

Now, if Lagos is shaky for Tinubu, and Makinde seems to have taken Oyo, Osun people are threatening not to go where Adeleke is pointing, then where is Tinubu’s stronghold?
