₦airaland Forum

Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has revealed that Nigeria’s future is bleak if the resolution of the Northern Governors’ Forum (NGF) to retain power in the North in 2023 is anything to go by.

Ohanaeze also stated that the Northern region of the country should have been “the Netherlands of Africa that if Presidency is a panacea to people’s problems” owing to the fact that most of the past leaders came from the region, and there was nothing to write home about the North.
This was contained in the statement by Ohanaeze issued by its spokesman, Alex Ogbonnia, made available to SaharaReporters on Tuesday.

The statement read, “The attention of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has been drawn to a part of the resolution by the Northern States Governors’ Forum with Northern States Emirs and Chiefs held on Monday, September 27, 2021, at the Council Chamber, Sir Kashim Ibrahim House, Kaduna.

“The remarks by the leaders of the North indicate a bleak future for Nigeria. It is most regrettable that the North are undisturbed that Nigeria is fast collapsing under its leadership. The Forum failed to recognize that at the moment, Nigeria is confronted with the most precarious omens full of uncertainty, doubts, insecurity and bloodshed.

“The Chairman of the Northern States Governors Forum, Governor Simon Lalong, can attest that the people of Plateau State had never in history witnessed the number of deaths as has taken place under his watch as governor.”

The Igbo group highlighted Nigerian problems among which is insecurity in the North and berated the Northern stakeholders for plotting to retain power when it is expected of them to proffer solutions to these deficiencies.

The statement continued, “The banditry in Zamfara, Katsina, Kaduna and Jigawa States is terrifying. Benue State has turned into a killing field. The States of Yobe and Borno are worst hit by the menace of Boko Haram; etc. Several schools in the North could not open because of kidnappers and millions of children are on the street as beggars. The Nigerian currency has lost its value.

“Unemployment has skyrocketed; and Nigeria has become the poverty capital of the world and the Northern Governors, the Sultan and the Emirs instead of seeking solution to Nigerian problems were busy strategising on how to retain power in 2023. This is most unconscionable, to say the least.

“Let it be made abundantly clear that if Presidency is a panacea to people’s problems, the North would have become the Netherlands of Africa. This is because the North had Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, Yakubu Gowon, Murtala Mohammed, Shehu Shagari,

Muhammadu Buhari, Ibrahim Babangida, Sani Abacha, Abdulsalam Abubakar, Musa Yaradua, Muhammadu Buhari, yet the problems of the North are on the increase.

‘It is most worrisome that the Sultan of Sokoto, Alh. Muhammadu Sa'ad Abubakar, CFR, the spiritual leader of the Nigerian Muslims, one of the most respected Sultans in the recent history and the living conscience of the North, took part in such subversion.

For the avoidance of doubt, there is peace in the progressive societies because men of conscience are more in number. On the other hand, the crises in Nigeria are a product of greed, injustice, religion without sacrifice and impunity.

“The position of the Southern Governors is simply restating the obvious. A gentleman agreement was reached at the NUC Conference Centre, Abuja in 1998 between the North and the South. The Late Dr. Chuba Okadigbo spoke for the entire South and Alh. Abubakar Rimi, also of blessed memory spoke for the North. It was agreed that after Gen. Abdulsalam Abubakar as the Head of State, that the presidency should shift to the South. That accounted for the emergence of the presidential flag bearers of the mainstream political parties from the South West.

“Chief Olusegun Obasanjo respected the agreement and handed over to the North in the person of Musa Yar’Adua. Again, Goodluck Jonathan, a Southerner, respected the gentleman agreement and handed over to the North in the person of President Muhammadu Buhari. Therefore, the least that is expected from the North is a show of profound gratitude to the entire South for their large heart, equanimity and sportsmanship.”

Even if the north rules for 100 years more they will still remain the undisputed poverty capital of the world. 2023 is the turn of the Igbos to produce the president or everyone goes their separate ways

These idiots are now finally seeing the handwriting on the walls and have started talking. These are the fools that call themselves elders and are supposedly the ones to see into the future and make predictions. Shame unto them. IPOB saw all these coming, many years ago when these same foolish elders were rambling and shouting one nigeria.

My happiness is that no matter what they rabble on about, today, the northerners/fulanis who has the power, finance, and military of the dungeon under their grip will never yield the power to them just because of mere talks. A win-win situation for Biafra agitators. We told them, but the old illiterate fools won't listen. Now the scales are slowly failing off their useful idiot eyes.

Good

Stop knowing showcasing your daftness. What will Igbo president do for you? Why are some of you so dumb that you can't see the benefit of living in your own country, even if it's for the security it will guarantee you and your people? So if you have Igbo president, your constitution which is actually the main problem will suddenly change?

Did you know that the northerners/fulanis will prefer a country of their own to nigeria where a southern president will tamper with the present constitution for proper amendments? They will rather have a Southerner they will control for 8 yrs so far as the status quo remains the same which will be nearly impossible going by the present events, or a northern president which will be a sure guarantee of the status quo remaining the same. Why can't some of you reason beyond the N2,000 and 5kg rice that will receive from the political thieves?

IPOB that saw it coming what did they do with the vision?
What have they done to advance Igbo political interest in Nigeria?
Is Igbo today better than when there was no IPOB?

A certain ethnic group ruling for 100 years in africa is simply the death of ethnic groups they're ruling over and what igbos should actually be pushing for is restructuring.

Ọhaneze better mind their business.

Igbos will use mouth to destroy themselves.. I'm sure Umahi, Kalu and co. are feeling sad now.

North will never vote for Igbos.. no mincing of words, just fact.

Igbo are the major challenger of the Northern elites now.

Return peace to your dungeon and let's see how you will do it. USSR, Yugoslavia, Czechoslavakia, to mention but a few. These are countries that lasted more than your dungeon and later crumble by the strength of secessionists. Your dungeon is still learning comparing to all the above mentioned..

USSR collapsed not because of any internal agitation go back to school.Nigeria may collapse in the future due to corruption and mismanagement of resources not because of your useless agitation.No single region or tribe can fight Nigeria and win.You are wasting Igbo blood in vain.If I ask you how do you plan to achieve Biafra you will go deaf and dumb.

This yoruba muslim, learn to type in English language. Stop using your annoying ewedu and gbegiri accent to type here. It is "Has" and not "As"

The land is cursed. The people too are cursed.

Clownish illiterate, the fall of USSR was a result of it's component nations seeking out and when the thieves at the helms of affairs of USSR saw the handwriting on the walls, they intelligently relinquished power and let the country collapsed in peace, instead of holding on as the daft and dumb idiotic so-called leaders of your dungeon are doing today despite seeing that they are headed nowhere. Your dungeon is already falling apart because of the heavy punches of IPOB. What other useless question do you intend to ask? Are you dumb? Though you are dumb, are you blind that you can't see?

Dey there dey deceive yourself.
MNK lied to you in 2015 that Biafra will come soon how soon is soon?
Buhari will soon finish his 8 years tenure and another president will take over and you will continue in your foolishness until you get old.
Btw can you provide evidence of agitation in the then USSR that led to its collapse?

Big plus to IPOB and Kanu.

Your achilles heel is your misplaced and cocksure belief that no region or tribe can cause problems leading to the dissolution of your shithole, 'one Nigeria'!

The reality on ground today is that 'one Nigeria' is just another name the Fulani hegemony goes by, hence it's mainly the Fulani hegemony that will do the running around to try and preserve it.....as we see happening today!

Anyone not from the muslim core north that has your slavish and naive attitude to sustaining Nigeria actually deserves their enslavement....even those ones who erroneously feel they're doing well!
