The Igbos Are A Significant Bloc In Rivers State by Nwibii(op): 12:12pm On Jan 24, 2023
THE IGBOS ARE A SIGNIFICANT BLOC IN RIVERS STATE

Everybody who understands politics in Rivers State understands that the Igbos are a significant bloc in this state, and anybody with the support of the Igbos is already a front-runner. And because of that, every political group focuses attention on the Igbos.

The igbos have never come together to endorse only one candidate. This is the first time they are doing that and I am the beneficiary of their kindness.

—Senator Magnus Abe after his endorsement for Governor by the Igbos in Rivers State.

With your two eyes you'll see that they meant what they said. Don't forget how the current Government treated them in the state. Igbos are major stakeholders in Rivers economy and any candidate they support they'll do that with all their mights.

Endorsement, as far as enlightened folks are concerned, means nothing. Everyone should go and sell themselves to the voters.

Away from Rivers politics, this is the same reason why northerners who want Peter Obi to win this election have always wanted him to come and campaign in the region. The good thing is that he has started that now.

Port Harcourt, ikwere, emuoha , etche , omuma , obigbo , ogba, egbema ndoni , .... minorities in okrika local government, ..you can add opobo and bonny if you wish ....this are indigenous igboid groups

You want to enslave, brutalize, and molest Niger Delta as u did under the eastern region

Yeah, I get your point..

My point is that in terms of voter population, those 4LGAs has more numbers than the remaining 19.

These people will massively vote for Obi, with or without Wike's endorsement..

Can you recall oyigbo incident? I pray it will not be a childplay for what will happen to you guys .

Magnus, you'd be wise to focus solely on your own ambition and not promote Thie.fnu.bu lest you lose woefully.
Wike will be signing SIM FUBARA's death knell the day he openly endorses that "balablu, gazelle gagaraga" bag of filth.

A lot of political lessons will be learned after 25th February.

Oga my argument is still valid..

Total the voter population of the four LGAs and that of the remaining 19 let's compare..

I have no candidate for the guber polls, my concern is only the presidential election..

So the igbos have decided to relocate to Khana, Tai and Gokana?

Check the last CVR and you'll understand what I'm saying. Hope you know Obiokpor and Phalga is made up of strangers? Most of these guys especially the Ogonis, Okirikans, Kalabaris et.al transferred their pulling units down to their villages.
