It is already too late.

Igbos will need almost another 10 years of convincing to do for other people to trust them.

I used to advocate for Igbo presidency but not anymore. The hate and arrogance from them have no equal.

Anyone who doesn't agree with them on any issue automatically becomes an enemy.
Keep ur advocacy, use it so ur father can be president. Lizard thinking itself as a crocodile

Rather than increasing your voice, improve your argument. This is what MNK didn’t fully grasp, opinions are not changed by loud screams & threats. If only Nigerians can for a day set aside tribalism and consider the merits of having a practical down to earth man in Aso Rock.

support an Igbo President. This might be the turning point of our democracy.
So that IPOB can continue beheading other Nigerians they don't like just as they are currently doing in the South East?

An Igbo President is not a bad Idea but Igbo Politicians need to put their act together because People think Biafra is their Agenda

Do your research well. The average Igbo man at Awka, Onitsha, Owerri, Umuahia, Enugu and Abakaliki doesn’t give a hoot about Igbo presidency.
Only the thieving Rochas Okorochas, scheming Orji Uzo Kalus want to dent themselves with that.

2023 is for restructuring or...

Any non northern politician attempting to succeed Buhari will fail woefully. It’ll take many years to mend what Buhari has destroyed...security, national cohesiveness, infrastructure, healthcare, education and massive debt that he has sunk us in.

Security wise, bokoharam, kidnapping and banditry will get worse after Buhari, massive brain drain will affect the health sector...same as education, lecturers and academicians will relocate, people will save money to study abroad, Nigeria will be more fragmented, politicians will loot is dry.

A time will come when people will start eating their fellow human beings as a show of domination and strength and as a means of survival. Name it, it will happen after Buhari under a southern president.

Obi, go and sit down

We don't need Igbo presidency. Anyone with the mentality of "I have been advocating for Igbo presidency, not anymore" should join obi to go and sit down.

All we need in the south east are development, employment, enabling business environment. Those that has been producing president(s), how e take epp dem region.


Go and nyash down

Obi said: “You can’t use infrastructure to drive economic growth. You invest in education and the SME (Small, Medium Enterprises) sector instead to deal with poverty. Taking people out of poverty is not magic.”

I am from the SE.

You certainly do not know the problems of the SE because of how inexperienced you are. You seem to only know your own personal problems.

Leadership is a problem anywhere. When I hear people talk restructuring, I just hiss 'cos they clearly do not understand what they are saying.

Whatever structure you want in your state, let the governor put them in place. I mean, what does restructuring even mean?

We have seen Prof. Zulum commission traditional hunters to enhance the security in Borno. We have also seen Akeredolu put in huge funds into structuring and equipping Amotekun in Ondo. What have the SE governors done with Ebubeagu in terms of funding and structure? They are waiting for Buhari abi?

On finance, everyone waits for allocation from FAAC, what happens to IGR boosting? If Lagos depends so much on FAAC allocation as others, would she be Africa's 5th largest economy?

Restructuring is nothing as far I am concerned. It is arrant nonsense. It is simply the new word for mental indolence, physical incapacity and admittance of failure.

Imagine what came out of Peter Obi's mouth. This is someone who had been governor for 8 years, and vied to be VP. He doesn't think that infrastructure could be used to drive the economy.

This is the most stupid thing I have heard any one that highly place say. What could drive an economy any faster and more inclusively as infrastructural development?

This is so dumb coming from Peter Obi. It is disgraceful. These are the same people who claim that Buhari is not educated. Shame!

When you restructure, how many difference can it make when you still the same old people doing same old thing.

To me, our problems are bad unpatriotic people and they are the ones in politics now, and will still be the ones to do the restructuring and be there when it's done

Has the north one day shown anyone why they deserve to rule? Yet they have been ruling for the Past 20 years, running Nigeria to the ground. May Chukwu Obioma strike down this fool Obi once and for all.

Good.

This country must be redeem.

But wait ooo.

We have to redeem ourselves first by turning away from our sins and believing on Jesus the only begotten of God.

Accept Jesus today and be set free.

Remember
If the son shall set you free, you shall be free indeed.


Jesus saves

Quitam:
What he said is the stark truth and i salute his courage for voicing it out. As a region, you can be antagonistic to an administration. However, make sure you don't put all your eggs in one basket. IMO, the activities of IPON and their passive apologists have spoiled the SE's chances of producing the next president. The most probable southern region to become president in 2023 is SW followed by SS then lastly SE.
The earlier the SEners realise this, the better for them. You may have the best entrepreneurs and SMEs,........, but you have to play the game smartly. Don't harbor too much hatred for your fellow country men because you benefit from them economically. Use your political tact and clout to secede and not by violence.
Why SW?
As you hate SE but can't exist without them
Then it should be SS first in that order

The guy is a coward that hasn't said PIM on the unrest in SE with IPOB/ESN.

Yoruba leaders fight more over issues in SE. Their leaders are cowards who hide in their wives' skirts.

Never seen where they idolise cowardice before like this...

We are not convincing any one, how many ppl did the west n North convince for obj and this dullard illiterate, to become president. Nigerians must make an Igbo man president same way, or we divide this country.
We are not joking, for now IPOB are the ones doing the noise making by 2023 , if an Igbo man or woman is not made president Nigerians would see the wrath n understand what igbos are capable of......

I'm afraid Peter Obi just echoed my thoughts.
The south east has remained childish in its approach to getting a shot at the Presidency.
There is no stabilizing or rallying point; other regions are watching how IPOB is maiming , constituting a nuisance /killing its own , and are taking notes.
Igbos should wake up, have a rallying point and play national politics .... Alternatively, they should focus on developing their region to the extent that other regions will love them to lead them ...for now , they should kiss the dream away. Sad but true ...

Think about it-how can you want to be President in the same country you are agitating to leave ? The south eastern part /Igbos are sentimentally funny ...

Hey, engagement and consultation kwa?

That's alien to the nature and the culture of Igbos, the way its known to them is gra gra, make big threats, beat chest and talk big.

Obi will have to set up an institution for the the Igbos to enrol to learn about coexisting, engagement, consultation, dialogues, persuasion and convincing.

The only time an Igbo man knows how to apply the qualities above is when they want to collect money from you in business. Put money on the table Igbo man will put sentiment aside and smiles to make sure the money get to him. They need to learn how to also apply that in winning other region in their political relationship.

Re: Obi To South East: Convince Nigeria Why You Should Produce President In 2023 by SANDAT(m): 7:30am On Aug 10, 2021
Almost an impossible task. With the level of hate coming out of the east especially of the Muslim North, an Igbo candidate will be hard to sell. They need to change rhetoric and understand that threat and intimidation will not help. By the way MNK made their case worse by creating more enemies and cultivating an army of ignorant youth who feed on hate.

A classic example of an Igbo mentally.
Not recognizing the fact that it's a democracy and they don't have the numbers.
