If Dem like they should dialogue, canvass, converge for all we care!

Shebi na we go vote, they should come and force other regions to vote for Dem naa

No Igbo president this century

You vote is just one and one alone, other region will vote for there preffered choice

Mooh247:
Will this your comment in your own intelligence give you Ibo Presidency

Suddenly you are threatening a stranger you've never met before that he would be consumed because he doesn't support your aspiration

Suddenly I am hateful because I don't support you politically

Truth is you're a hate filled folk...

Simple question; what role did OBJ or Yoruba play to get PDP leaders and other military strong men to push and get a Yoruba president in 1999

Peter obi is the best candidate from the east and I like how he carefully articulated what Nigeria’s only problem is>>> Power

No other candidate has laser focused on this, not even my own PYO

Peter obi has also shown one very desire-able skill. And that skill is the Ability to reduce government spending considerably. He did it in anambra state

I am a yoruba man but I don’t care if a particular region rules for ever, just enact policies that puts more money in my pockets

Igbo:
I wish okoros knew the mind of average Nigerians

Who cares about the mind of a poor,wretched skull miner?

Nigeria did same to appease the Yoruba in 1999 ,so what is wrong in doing same for the Igbo in 2023?
Struggling to build a country without equity and justice is vanity.

VictorUSA:
The issue of presidency is making most nigerians run mad! The presidency isn't the problem.The solution is ending islam in Nigeria and slaying all the islamic terrorists.

You are nothing but a terrorist. An hateful basttttard

No sane or established human can type this... poverty of mind and pocket isn't fair to you

Two old fools. So we should dash them presidency just to satisfy them?
Is anyone stopping any Igbo man or woman from running for presidency?

post=112223831:
SOUTH EAST: IS IT NOT TOO LATE?

We have read the recent transmissions by Senator Bukola Saraki directed at our Igbo tribe. We have deliberately kept mum on this as we had earlier resolved to speak less on Igbos as regards the 2023 elections, Presidency having said quite a bit. 

However seeing as some of my brethren have swallowed the cheap bait, I will chip this in just to keep the reality before us, at least for posterity sake. Truth is bitter but it's still the best medicine. 

My people say; 'He who does not remember where the rain started beating him, will not remember where it stopped'. 

REWIND TO 2014. 
A new National Party was being conceived. Political Parties, political players and Regions were being wooed to the new alliance. 

'We' Igbos (read South East) vehemently refused to touch it even with a long pole. We packaged, sold to ourselves and bought the baseless propaganda that it was an Islamic alliance that would birth an "Islamic" and "Hausa" Party. Simply because those our brethren heavily invested in the PDP at the time were afraid of losing their vested selfish interests.
Till today I'm still trying to fathom the basis for that wicked and twisted deceit especially as many of those Igbo elites who sold that dummy have since ported to the same APC.

We failed to even identify with that new Alliance. Hence the Party, APC was birthed without any remarkable input from us or presence. The few amongst us who aligned were called all kinds of names and abused to high heavens by us even when they were proven right afterall.

Thus the few Igbos who were part of it were at best fringe players as they didn't have the required clout to make serious demands and do the necessary political wheeling and dealing required in Politics to strike the hard bargains since politics is all about interests and numbers. They were even suspect, so much so that it was only their personal political sagacity that gave them whatever they got.

That Party went on to win the Presidential Election which in truth, most of us never believed it could or would, because of our half baked permutations and poor understanding of Nigerian politics. But it did. 

Curiously we turned up at the fore front of telling this same Party how it should share it's 'spoils of war'. We became hypocritical moral champions with an over bloated sense of entitlement. Who does that, in all political reality and practicality? But we did, even while vehemently and vociferously still refusing to shift our position, style and rhethoric.

We dug in. Supported every bad thing and person against the Party, the elected President and the Administration while denying any and every good done to and for our Region.

Fast forward to where we are today. Almost four years after the 2015 misadventure, we have stayed put at 2015, refusing to move forward, refusing to shift grounds, refusing to play pragmatic politics, telling ourselves the same lies we cooked and bought in 2015 and some more. 

Now barely 5 months to another election, we have started again saying "APC cannot give Presidency to Igbos in 2023". "Buhari cannot hand over to an Igbo man because Buhari hates Igbos". "APC is deceiving you", bla bla bla.

Of course. We will believe Saraki, who has only but a fanthom dream of becoming President and whose only known record is selfishness but we can't believe Buhari who's already President and who has a record of voluntarily picking two great Igbo sons as running mates in the past? Chukwu aju.

It is interesting and vital to note here that the PDP which many of us still proudly support and adore was in power for 16 solid years and in those years there were 4 Presidential Inaugurations and on none of those was an Igbo man found worthy by the PDP of even Vice Presidency and we are still bold to say it is the APC that has not even finished one and a half tenure that doesn't want to give power to Igbos. Odi nma. 

NOW; Seriously, let's be sincere. As things stand today politically, why would the APC even hand power to us Igbos in 2023? 
On what grounds? 
On what records?
On what politics?
Is power given to anyone? 
Is it an appeasement or a gift? 

The APC is a political party. The main focus of a political Party is to hold power and keep it to enable it deliver on its agenda. So if the APC reads that the SE does not want the Presidency or does not have the capacity to help them win and keep power, they will stick with the regions that can and work with individuals who are interested. 

Make no mistake, I have always said, I do not blame us Igbos for the decision majority of us took in 2015. It's our right. But continuing to pretend that it was other regions, Buhari or the APC that made us do what we did then or remain where we are today is purely self deceit and I refuse to play that ostrich game. 

As far back as 2014, I and many others made that argument that Igbo Presidency was very feasible in 2023, ONLY under under the APC, ONLY IF we did a couple of things right politically. I personally continued to speak loudly on that even after the 2015 elections until when I realized that we were not ready to play the politics that was required and now I dare say it may be too late. Or is it not? Time will tell.

For now, we can continue to tell ourselves that we cannot hold the Presidency of Nigeria. I heard and read many of our brethren go from PDP to Biafra/seccesion (read IPOB) to Referendum to "Igbos do not need Presidency but Restructuring" etc forgetting that all that didn't lie squarely with us alone. We think other regions are not reading our body language?

I really don't care what Saraki writes or says because they've all come to realize that it's very easy to play us like a flute. So like Saraki, like Fani Kayode, like Fayose, like Atiku, even Jonah Jang of all people, they keep playing us.


We've learnt not to bother ourselves anymore to avoid unnecessary mentions from nonentities.
As some of us have said, it's good governance we want, even if only one village will be producing the Presidents. So be it.

Ka Chineke mezie okwu.

You don't expect South East to work against Jonathan who is their own and stood a better chance of winning the election.

Since 2003 there have being several Ibo organised conferences, seminars and workshops with the main goal of Ibo Presidency, even 2003 Ibo world Congress that held in Texas the main focus ever since then has being Ibo Presidency

Reality is noise making doesn't win any Election, emotional blackmail doesn't either

Seeking consensus candidacy or micro Zoning only portray a candidate as weak, and Nigeria would never vote a weakling as President.. never!!!!!

Go on twitter or create a thread on Nairaland and ask a simple question... What are the achievement of Peter Obi , Orji Uzor Kalu, Rochas Okorocha ... Also ask Tinubu and Osinbajo's or Atiku and Tambuwal supporters this same simple harmless questions.... Their response would help you understand why people are skeptical on trusting them with the might Presidential executive powers

Ibo candidate must seek out vote like any other contestants and candidate without seeking backdoors and sympathy

It's IGBO, if you can't write it properly, desist from using it

Who will bet?

It's igbo , i know you hate them, but I promise you, your hate has nothing on them....if you can't write igbo properly desist from using it.

Felimax:
Please if the Igbos are part of this country then the best time to get a credible hand from the Southeast is now.

I am in total support of an Igbo presidency.

Except they're lazy and wanna be spoonfed, let them work for it like others are doing. Tinubu for instance has been going round the country, meeting people, consulting, despite his age (which might limit his strength). Igbo candidates on the other hand (even though younger) are sitting in their dormitories, waiting for the people to come hand them dinner on a silver platter.

They even mock those seen working hard for the position. Even Wike whom people imagine can't get there is making concerted efforts towards his goal.

I think the problem of the Igbos is that they've burnt every single bridge upon which they could reach out to others with their unbridled HATE and bitterness. They feel they could bamboozle, threaten, coerce, or blackmail Nigerians into doing their bidding, but indicators or pointing in the opposite direction.

A Yoruba man will be our next president. Know ye this day and be at peace.

Non-igbos doing the most as regards zoning the presidency to the east.......

Well said...but we are not interested, Nigeria has spoiled beyond repair,
Let the IDPs and their North husbands clean up the mess they created.

The configuration of the delegate of the ruling party has made the emergence of an Igbo candidate very difficult. If really you are not partial, that should be your concern instead of advising them to beg for votes. On an equitable stance, igbos are not weaklings as you erroneously put it. Mind you, I am from Edo State before you tag me as an Igbo.

Not for this 2023 elections.

You avoided the other thread on killing of your Benue people by Fulanis but quickly sneak in here to comment.

@topic In a democratic setting every ethnic nationality have a right to contest for President but they must work for it through strategic partnership and not insisting it's their right

But Igbo would rather form alliance with the North than anyone from the South. History is replete with such instances.
