1999 & 2003

Falae was our candidate in 1999.

If Peter Obi and Okorocha were to be on a ticket, who will the Ibos vote for? Peter Obi right?

So if the Yorubas now go ahead to vote Okorocha to spite the Ibos, will you say we supported your candidate?

That was the case in ‘99. And for 2003, you did no one a favor because you will never vote Buhari so you just went for the best alternative.

When have the SE ever supported the SW chosen candidate in our history since 1959?

Your time starts now?

In 1999 SE voted a yorubaman (OBJ) whether he was supported by yoruba or not is immaterial.

If you are looking for SE politicians that Igbos do not really like (just as yorubas did not like OBJ) but are in the incumbent party with yorubas, there are so many of them, pick them and support them like East picked OBJ and supported him in the 'Southern unity' project.

The most important thing is that a SEner must emerge, just as a yorubaman emerged in 1999 at all costs, heads or tail.

That's all we ask.

Well in 1998, Yoruba in PDP fought for the ticket because Ekueme contested against OBJ in the PDP presidential primaries.

If you are not well vast in politics, let me provide you with the result of that primary election.

- OBASANJO 67.98%
-ALEX EKWUEME 21.36%
-DON ETIEBET 4.35%
-GRAHAM DOUGLAS 2.91%
-JIM NWOBODO 2.42%
-PHILIP ASIODU 0.49%
-FRANCIS ELLAH 0.49%

Now ask yourself, where did Ekueme got his 21.36% votes if not the Igbos? You never voted OBJ in the primaries.

You only agreed to vote him because in the proper election, he is competing with Falae a Yoruba supported candidate to continue your antagonistic crusade since 1959.

So bro, using the same analogy, we are saying Ibos should contest the APC primaries and if they emerge victorious, we Yorubas will give the candidate our support.

As for PDP, we don’t care what happens there just as Igbos don’t care too much what happened in AD in 1999. Sefini!

You can continue your self-deceit propaganda. You stand where you stand, we stand rooted to where we stand. If it's only about voter's strenght not equity, justice and fairness, because you hate to see the East benefit, then go and wrestle the presidency alone from the north.. Case closed.

Thanks, at least we have yanked off the “We give Yoruba the ticket” narrative of ‘99

We will wrestle the presidency alone from the North. We have won a National election before against the North and we are confident we can do that again.

However, if you are trying to solicit the buy-in of a people to your cause, you don’t threaten them but rather show them what they stand to benefit if they concede to you.

Some of you Ibos need to start thinking with your brains rather than your fist. That’s my little advice.

Dont worry ur self Mr OP. If PDP give their flag to Atiku and APC Use Osinbanjo or Tinubu and Zulum as vice. This is how 2023 Election will look like;
NE- 50%(APC) 50% (PDP)
NW- 35% (APC) 65%(PDP)
NC- 60%(APC) 40%(PDP)
SE- 10% (PDP) 90%(APC)
SW- 95%(APC) 5%(PDP)
SS- 70%(APC) 30(PDP)
So, till that time we should forget about this online blackmailing and patiently wait for election day.

Lol. IPOBian moaning thread for losers. SW will produce the next President of Nigeria. Nothing you IPOBian blackmailer and empty barrels can do about it.

You IPOBians should simply learn to play mainstream politics, instead of politics of hate and enmity as you're even doing on this thread, or your sojourn in the political wilderness will continue for a very long time.

East did not pick Obasanjo, it was the north that picked him. East simply waited for the West to make a choice and then voted the opposite direction which is their right.

When ibos start picking Yoruba candidate, they might reciprocate by also picking one of them, for now go and find a Fulani that will rule over you, you help is not needed.

They did not vote Buhari only because he is not PDP. Even when Ojukwu was alive, didn’t they vote against him in support of PDP?

Umahi used to be the bride when he was in PDP, as soon as he decamped to APC, Ibos started hating him.

What about FFK? There is a psychological hold of PDP on the Ibos that they themselves won’t be able to know is affecting them.

Since PDP hints about zoning their Presidency to the north in 2023,the south west has been restless,paranoid, crying and fearful.I notice they have activated a full propaganda to support a southern president in 2023 because it will favour but I have questions to ask

(1) why is the south west concern about who PDP chose for 2023 when they have little or no stake in PDP?

(2) why did the south west betray the south in 2015 to get VP position but now is against the south east or south south from be VP to another northern candidate.

It seems the south west are trying to play smart but the south east governors and south south leaders are wiser than them.

What exactly are you saying? Even if you feel the south west worked for a northern candidate in 2015, does that mean the SS and SE should work against a southern president. Take it or leave it, a southern candidate is the best option for now. Only a foolish southerner will vote a northerner in 2023 after what Buhari has done .

With or without your support for OBJ in 2023, he would have won coz he was a master of rigging. Moreso who is his opponent? Same Muhammadu Buhari that you detest.

Nobody got a choice then, even the Yorubas got no other choice than to support him then because whether you support or oppose, OBJ will still win.

When we needed you most in 1959 coalition, 1979, 1983, 1993, & 1999. You guys are nowhere to be found.

We owe the Ibos nothing just like they owe us nothing!! So you guys should stop saying it like we owe you a pledge we need to fulfil.

This is why the SE/SS should support the North for fairness and equity.

The Northern oligarchs are looking to give the NC/NE the Presidency and SE the VP. These regions have never held these positions.

The "south" or SW agenda is looking to make the SW Presidency at the expense of the greater south.

Northerners understand justice and fairness, this is why a Northern president is what is needed in 2023.


If you are talking of fairness North has no business with 2023,the south should be left to pick the best amongst them to contest.

Yoruba leaders getting betrayed in 2023 may actually be a blessing in disguise for the average yoruba man. grin someone said BMC SW would learn their lesson. Plus the damage that has been done to nigeria in the past years by this current administration and not to talk of the rising debt, anybody taking over is either going there to continue looting or has some serious work on his hands, Northern president hasn't reduced banditry and infact kidnapping is now a new venture in the north, the kidnapping industry in the north alone turning over $50m in the past 8 years, what's the use of power when your people are largely in poverty and lacking behind globally. The bright side is that atleast IPOB/ESN agitation would reduce once they're given vice presidency.

I'm Yoruba but I want a southerner from either SE/SS to get the presidency in 2023. I don't support a Yoruba presidency.
Present Yoruba generation are too pro nigerian for my liking. Na them carry nigerian unity for head pass.

Besides, I don't trust any Yoruba politician to initiate the so much desired restructuring we desperately need in this country.
They are too comfortable with the present structure and only hope to be in charge..taking the larger portion of the cake.

South south politicians have learnt their lessons with Jonathan. They won't wait for any 2nd term to strike.

Though some ibo politicians no get sense, but the undying agitation for biafra in that region will be too hard for any ibo president to ignore. Something has to give..at least restructuring.

First of all, all you shouting so do region have done so do many years... From which era are you talking about?

Since before democracy or from 1999? because if its the former, Igbo already have a taste of the Presidency through Ironsi, Zik etc. , NC also spent the most years in Presidency during the military era, IBB, Abdulsalam, Gowon, Murtala are all from NC.

If u talking of democratic era from 1999 ? If Buhari complete his 8 years, with less that 3 years Yaradua did.... The North have still not rule the more.

Sorry for the Igbo people, you need many years of bridge building.... As long as Politics remain game of numbers, you have to learn to make allies.... Expecting the Presidency to be handed over to you like a plate of Akpu is just a pipe dream...

This 2023, SW has it.....
Wait what should the Hausas say? They have never have a taste of the Presidency..

If we make the mistake of continuous bickering and the north takes the advantage again,it's a pity cos.
If you say SW betrayed SE and SS(SW gave Buhari 55% and Jonathan 45%) should the Yorubas too say you Igbos especially have severally betrayed the Yorubas since 1960 to always vote for Hausa fulanis(Igbos always vote for Hausa fulani in blocs even Tofa that they knew little about).Does it mean that Igbos are born betrayers or is it serial betrayers that we should call them?

An Igbo presidency will actually kill/harm the biafran agitation and hilarious to believe that the any of them would initiate restructuring. Only wike has the balls to do that. What's funny and you may not agree with me is that someone like tinubu is most likely to restructure but that's one of the reasons the northern cabal won't allow him presidency, the man can't be controlled but unfortunately anti-yoruba sentiment has affected him. This is just my personal opinion tho.
