Were you foolish set off people when you received same entitlement in

1999 two entitled Westerners

2015 two entitled Northerners??

What affects most common bl8k people is ethnic sense of amnesia...that's why Africa has been fighting wars...even clearly avoidable ones.

OfoIgbo:
Haven't you seen the Yoruba god Tinubu, bowing profusely to Buhari?

Didn't you notice your people lick Fulani ass and falling over themselves to vote out the only ever SS president in 2015 in preference for a Fulani dullard and terrorist?

Haven't you noticed that Ilorin, which ought to be a Yoruba territory, is currently led traditionally by a Fulani emir?

Shouldn't the three questions I asked above be a guide as to which ethnic group idolizes the Fulanis in Nigeria?

nedzuby:
Other regions were busy building alliances with others but the SE think insulting others will give them presidency.

Make una come collect am na. Nonsense

Essence20:
Yeah, they have every right to contest but it's only when they are given the platform that they will have a chance of winning. In the spirit of equity and fairness, it's expected that each of the major geopolitical regions be given a chance to the presidency. Others have had theirs, some even more than once. Last 2105, PDP zoned presidency to the north, reason why their primaries was dominated by northerners only. This zoning is meant to go round and is southeast turn, why are they reluctant to do the needful? Same in APC.

EmirGold:

“We are waiting for them (political parties), as they will meet their Waterloo this time, if they insist on shortchanging the Southeast people this rare opportunity of producing a credible, patriotic, detribalised and dynamic president of Nigeria in 2023,” he said.

Redcrafton:
Just look at your watery remark.

When they build alliances from 1999 to 2015, what did you give them?

Lame hypocrisy...

Essence20:
You jumped OBJ, is he not one of you? Or it's because Igbos voted and supported him?

Walkee:
I am from South South, I'm from Edo state, how is Jonathan, an Ijaw my son?

Benjax4all:
they hate awolowo ,but akintoye and abiola himself betray awolowo are those pple igbo, I think is d same Igbo that did not allow abiola to become president and kill is wife or have you forget wat d son of abiola said in 2017

doublecross:
ironu yen lo ma pa iya la ya eee

Disclaimer12:
Did u see Igbo in my write up? Why conscience dey judge u?

Benjax4all:
abeg shut up, ur comment is directly talking about igbo, stop faking it even a new born baby willl know that!

Eastlink:
Ok. But Jonathan represented the South-South zone. True or false? Peter Odili had to bury his political ambition to appease the Ijaws who clamoured for their man as Vice-President. Edo state might need to stake their claim whenever the slot get's zoned to the South-South in 2042.

Disclaimer12:
Then a new born baby know that you all are bunch of haters ! Funny how you all suddenly need to rule the zoo! U suddenly want ticket from APC, the same party u called terrorists party lol! U all now want the northern vote,the same aboki that are nama, cows, ndifulani lol! Karma is a bitch bro! Guard your utterances and you'll go far in life

Their Grandparents hated Awolowo all through, Their parents hated Abiola and never voted for him in the freest Election in history! Their children has chosen Tinubu as their number one Enemy! Yoruba E ronu o

I dont think the Igbos lack diplomacy, I think other regions (not everyone in it) lack diplomacy on the Igbos.. one might even say there seems to be be a sense of racism and segregation rapidly growing against the Igbos.

This is a region that has waited and watched on the sidelines while giving support to everyother region, the region has been derided and called names, relegated to the extent of not a single position on the hierarchy of power in the nation, despite biting policies and untold hardship it has not stopped its travels to every nook and cranny in the country while creating a sense of unity and building relationships. How is the emeka and chinedu you get spare part and household items from while being cordial with you different from the one that aspire for leadership in his or her country?

Benjax4all:
mr man,go to my page and check,their is no place have never say let Apc give d tickets to south east because dey did not contribute any thing in apc. Even let them give a Igbo man president him go still fail,even worse pass buhari because d country is beyond repair and can't change for good, because will all look and take everything tribal, even I no even support Igbo presidency.

Eastlink:
Blackmail got the SW the Presidency in 1999 - 2003. Blackmail got north the President with Yardaua taking that slot and Buhari emerging in 2015-2019 despite Boko-Haram and Sharia violence. Blackmail got south-south the Presidency in 2011 and nearly in 2015 with militants and Ijaw boys blowing hot air. If blackmail could get all these afformentioned groups the Presidency then the South-East is on the right track. They didn't do half of what the rest group did and so no one have any right to vilify them.

A Nigerian President of Igbo extraction is the goal. South-East should not bow down. It's their God given right to ascend the Presidency just like others.

Walkee:
there are six geopolitical zones in Nigeria, where are the presidents from North East and North central?
Nobody is stopping the same Pdp from zoning to the South. Just like you said, Pdp zoned 2015 slot to the North and saraki from North central, Kwankwanso and Tambuwal from North West and Atiku from North East all contested in the primaries and Atiku won.
Should Pdp zone it to the south, South East, South-South and South West will also have to contest for the ticket and whoever wins will be the flagbearer. Nobody is going to back down for anyone. If you don't even have the courage against your own party men why should anyone trust you with power?

Essence20:
Yes, there are 6 geopolitical zones and 250ethnic groups. But we have 3 major ethnic groups: Hausa/Fulani, Igbo and Yoruba. There's no way power can rotate across the 250 ethnic groups, but it sure can rotate accross the 3 major ethnic groups as wells as the 6 geopolitical zones. We've to rotate it round the 3 majors before coming to the 6 geopolitical zones. This will go a long way to create that sense of belonging and inclusiveness. That's all the Igbos are asking for.

Esseite:
In as much as I cant even think Tinubu even if I am Yoruba, he is still not in anyway related to the article. You dont expect anyone to be considering a man of certain age despite the ordeal Nigerian are going through with the current.

bjdon:
Cry me a river!
Was an Igbo man not VP to Shagari?
Were Igbo men not Senate presidents in Obasanjo's time
The simple truth is the Igbos hitched their tent with PDP. That worked for a while, but eventually when PDP lost, they found themselves outside the power equation. They need to learn from how the SW built an alliance with the NW. All this boasting, shouting, threatening , crying...is not going to get them anywhere.

Sunofgod:
GEJ should have just chased them out of the room.

Why even answer their questions.

SMH

aljharem:
this people are funny u know. Just i thought this people want to eat there cake and have it again

they all voted for ACN thus they want regional government ie fedralism

yet they still want the advantages of being in the mainstream politics

abeg make them go sit down

when it is time they should go meet tinubu there master

Afam4eva:
Al_harem has spoken the truth. You cannot eat your cake and still want to have. PDP controls the center.So, states that will benefit from the center are PDP states. They should go and meet oga Tinubu if they feel marginalized

Walkee:
no, it's not zoned to South south or south East or south West, it's zoned North or south by Pdp. It depends on how influential the candidate is to win the ticket. Primaries mostly based on who has more money to spend. If you are able to get enough delegates you win. Nobody cares if you are from SW, SS or SE

Following your logic, would you say Wike buried his ambition in 2019 for Obi in other to placate IPOBs?

EmirGold:
*Reject VP slot
*Vow to sanction any Igbo politician who accepts to be running mate to candidates from other regions
*Threaten to quit Nigeria, if…

But this animosity was not there before.. the alienation escalated it.. you would also confirm that the SW animosity escalated when they felt alienated by the GEJ administration.

omenkaLives:
"South East MUST produce the blablabla".

From the youths to the elders, not a hint of difference.

Deadlytruth:
The difference is that the blackmails of the SS, SW and NW were all directed at the FG and therefore attracted sympathy and support from the other regions unlike that of the SE which is directed more at other tribes and regions than at the FG hence attracting disgust and resistance from these other regions and tribes.
If you Easterners had focused on the FG alone all this while without bringing in other regions and even twisting history against them, you wouldn't have needed all these talks of fairness and equity to get all other Nigerian tribes queue behind you. But your insults since 2015 on account of the self inflicted loss of Jonathan who is not even from your SE has complicated everything. There is no equity or fairness, either, in twisting history against others and insulting them continually for 8 years running.
