Thank you,politics is not by emotion.Politics of developer people(I nor mention name) is by emotion.Which south-east pdp governor can stand before okowa,wike,Udom in Pdp affair?
How much them dey contribute?
In apc,no southeast governor can withstand tinubu or osinbajo in apc affairs.
So now which party one give them ticket?
Those people dey confuse,other part of nigeria dey plan ahead why them dey emotional towards politics.
You have been typing nonsense since.

Do you know the choice of candidate can trigger massive votes in a region?
Maybe you don't know the causes of apathy and also situations that can put an end to it.
Go and update your knowledge instead of disgracing yourself and clan here.

Are you so stupid to think that wherever you belong can stand SE in terms of number votes etc?
Stu.pid people like you will always want to spit SE just to satisfy the north or whoever is powering you but in reality, na una dey suffer am.

Even GEJ needed to identify with Igbo before he could win the election in 2011,that is why he added the name Ebele.

See if they are sharing the presidency as giveaway, aswear e no go still reach una side before e finish.

Your du.mb skull didn't tell you the vote apathy in the SE part of the country cost PDP the election, and yet you expect them to repeat the same mistake.
Ask your self the reason for the sudden Vere apathy?
And sudden rise in the number of vote in the north.
FYI, there was a sign of vote apathy is some part of SW in 2019,precisely Lagos and your brain didn't tell you to find out what the cause might be.

Why do you think there is always difficulty in obtaining voters card in other regions most especially the SE but it's very easy to obtain in the northern part?

Let me tell you, Okowa, GEJ, Amaechi etc identified with the Igbos in the past to win their elections but it's clear now and that is what this man is saying.
Either you like it or not, it's the fact.

Olatomiwami:
Do u think PDP is ready to loose? What is the voting strength of SE? How many of them has voters cardsl? NK has brainwashed them to destroy d voters card.
Presidency is not decided based on a political zone's voting strength.

For instance, in 1999, Obasanjo didn't get much votes from his region, but he still beat Olu Falae.

The core north voted for Buhari all the years he contested, but they weren't able to deliver him until the South West and North Central voted for him.

In conclusion, what wins presidency is not the voting strength of the presidential hopeful's zone, but the ability of his party to get other regions to vote for the party.

First I am not against Igbos contesting but,look at the parties,in PDP south-south governors have more say and power,let us be realistic.
In apc Igbos are wasting their time there.They hate the party,it is an islamic party and now they want the party to consider them,what is their contribution?
Answer:insult to apc and emotional speeches.
Even their vote to pdp,there is still aparty in east.
Igbos must be realistic and stop all these emotional speeches.
Jonathan rewarded Igbos with juicy positions,but your people were busy doing stomach infastructure politics.

You are a pathological liar. How did they pacify Yorubas in 1999? Did Ekwueme contest with OBJ at the primary or not? If the presidency was mean for Yorubas only in 1999, why did Ekwueme contest with him? Ekwueme contested primary in 1999, Yorubas will also contest primary in 2023. Do you get that?

Many Ikwerres like me can speak Igbo(Isoma) because most of our matrilineal lineage were of the Igbo stock. Most of our grandparents married Igbos, but we are not Igbos!
Send all those your matrilineal parents home for re-marriage.

Such tradition is allowed in Igboland.

You people should have a meeting and send all these mother's home , so that we can re-engage them to other men to avoid all these matrilineal stock of a problem.... Including your own mother and grandmother.

Vinnie2000:
Yeah, There is a Difference..

The South East Igbos are the Traditional Igbos..D ones we know are Business-minded n scatter in Nigerian towns n cities..They come from Imo, Enugu, Ebonyi, Abia and Anambra..

But some are close to Benue(Idoma areas) and Cross River..Diz ones are still Igbos!!

But Ikas in Delta have a language n culture of their own, same as d Ndokwas,, dats y dey don't want to be cald 'Delta Igbo' or Igbo..

However, in d same Delta State, D Aniocha/Oshimili group sometimes identify demselves as Igbos because dier areas are closer to Onitsha, Anambra state n dier language is almost d same as d Main Igbo!!..(Funny enough, some don't e.g JayJay Okocha n Okonjo-Iweala)..

The area Where Nzeogwu who killed Ahmadu Bello, Tafawa Balewa, etc came from is Okpanam n is in Asaba axis..Pple then said an Igboman killed Hausa politicians..

So, you see dat it's Quite Confusing n Complicated!!

Am not from Rivers State, so cannot say much on Ikwerre..
Avoid Early morning weed because you are not making sense.

You are Urhobo but have arrogated to yourself the monopoly of wisdom to decide for others.

Maybe I will soon balkanise Urhobo/okpe.

Don't let me swear for you please, if you want us to have a proper discussion, please keep lies away from it.

GEJ rewarded SE with what nonsense?

Do you know what he did for the north alone in his final year(2014 is bigger than what he did for other regions combined?

Can you please mention a single major project he did for SE?

FYI, the disappointment from GEJ was one of the causes of the vote apathy in SE.

Again, the reason why you are thinking SS has more say in PDP now is because governors in the SE regions are now mixed and those of PDP party are not fully in just like SW.
You get the point?

Another thing you missed is the fact that APC has founding members who are from SE region.

Lastly, any decision PDP is making today and they don't consider the SE region will lead to nothing, you can argue this but it is the fact.

Children of hate and perdition will not like anything that will unify and move the nation forward.
APC should bring out Ngige, Okorocha, or Onu
PDP should bring out Obi, Ekweremadu, etc
We Nigerians decide between the two like in 1999.
Simple.

In south-south we Ikas are small but mighty,we are not the 20th ethnic group by population,we should be the 5th,we are over 6million in number,including our brothers carved into edo.So of our people live aside Ika land and aside Nigeria.
Naija need to conduct another census.
Whatever you are is none of IGBO concerns.
Point is that you should be testing your population strength against your fellow minorities in SS in battle of who would clinch teh the zone presidency slot.
Good luck winning the racing. You would need lots of it.

Who are the Ikas in Edo?
The Igbanke?
So you want to use Igbanke people to pad your own numbers, you don't think Igbanke people has wised up too.
They are now saying they are a distinct group from you Ikas.

South-south governors have more say in pdp mainly becuase they have more financial strength than their southeast counterparts,the region feeds the nation with oil and gas.
Igbos are always ungrateful.

Keep quiet,which enugu north? I here in enugu state,aparthy is too high your people don't vote.But on election days we Ikas dey give pdp block votes.
Before,Okowa was an Ibori boy,but once he became governor he break out and now he have his own loyalist.He only respect ibori.
Check all his appointees and see the percentage of Ika people.
Even Emefiele that I usually criticise here for nothing giving ika people agricultural support i.e grants and loans.
Yet,through emeifiele many Ikas are now working in top CBN position.Emefiele is still better than Ayim Pius,who was senate president and later secretary to the federation,what did the sleeping man do for ebonyi?
Or is ekweremadu who want to die in senate?
In anioman politics currently,Ika people are dominating and controlling everything,forget about the capital in oshimili land(asaba).
Ika is just two inconsequential LGAs . Your block votes means nothing.

All you ended exposing here is the nepotism tendency of an Ika man. All Anioma people campaigned for Anioma governor but it's like your Ikas had cornered every benefit of Anioma governorship to yourselves.

Asaba is a beautiful city and cannot be forgotten.

Deadlytruth:
If it's purely geopolitical zone politics then there might be nothing wrong for an Igala person indegenous to Anambra state to fly the ticket on behalf of the SE.
Such person is qualified and when its South South turn an Igboman from that zone is equally qualified to run.

We have the entire Igbaken clan,Ekpon clan and some communities in owa clan that were carved into edo.

You guys know little about Ika.In south-south we are mighty.Even in edo state Esan people control everything despite the fact that the current governor is a benin man,because benin don't go to school in mass.Only few benin people are educated.

Ika of today is not Ika of 20years ago.Today we are now at a position our enemies never imagine we can ever get to.

Go and die.
In asaba,Ika people have so many real estate properties so,we also contributed to the development.
The majority of oil wells in anioma is in Ikaland.We also have some gas

Majority of gas in anioma is in ndokwa land.
You are stupid,okowa worked in the entire anioma.they also have some oil.

If Ikas were wicked,we for oppress oshimilli and aniocha,the way they oppresed Ika and Ndokwa in the past.

Some of our people are now making the mistake of investing their money in anambra and Enugu cities in the name of investment,I will raise it online to stop them soon.

Even some of our boys trading in onitsha and working aba,must stop investing in a strange where investment are not safe.South east is like north east(danger zone).

It's south east presidency

Anyway me personally
I don't have any problem with the South south Igbos contesting
I can accept Delta igbo excluding ika
And I also have no problem with Rivers Igbo except ikwerre

Anyway Edwin Clark is an Ijaw man
He should focus on his creeks
And stop doing attache by force
Which Ijaw people like doing
(Always trying to speak and claim Igbo, just like Asari, Hilda, good luck, timaya,preye and co faking Igbo)
You Igbos are attache by force!
You tact and common sense.

Ohaneze ndi Igbo and several Igbo went to the man's house where he was chilling.

I wonder why you Igbos are bitter and jealous towards the Ijaws and other ethnic groups in the Niger Delta.

Second niger bridge? We have a railway line and we have two stations in owa-oyibu and Igbanke.

We started pumping oil 2013,we are new to the game,and we will not allow what happened to Ndokwa to happen to us.

Wike was not really defeated,It was IBB and OBJ that begged wike and tambuwal,to give atiku the ticket,so it was already agreed Tambuwal just contested to fulfill all righteousness.
