Presidency shouldn't go to SE because it's there turn.

It should go to them because they are innovative.

If igbos were in power, Nigeria would have been the biggest production country in Africa.

I've worked with many Nigerians, igbos operates on a different level and I give it to them.

BECAUSE OBI WON. . . . SOOOOOOO, SE HAS EARNED THEIR PLACE IN NIGERIAN HISTORY!
The SE fielded a formidable candidate with Peter Obi. . .and Nigeria PAID for his campaign. . . no shi shi given!
He worked hard. . . slept on roads and airways traveling to ALL PARTS OF NIGERIA TO CAMPAIGN . . . in less than 1 YEAR! shocked
He worked his butt off. . . LOST HIS VOCAL CORDS . . . united NIGERIANS.

PDP denied him the chance.
APC is not an option.
HE WENT TO LP. . . AND ENERGIZED THE LABOUR PARTY.
What else DO YOU WANT?

No, THE SE DESERVES IT BECAUSE OBI IS FROM THE SE and he WON!
Case closed!

THE ONLY WAY TO IGBO PRESIDENCY IS FOR THEM TO RECOGNIZE THAT WE ONLY HAVE TWO REGIONS/GEOPOLITICAL ZONES IN NIGERIA WHICH ARE SOUTHERN REGION AND NORTHERN REGION. IT IS THE SAME SPIRIT WE HAVE FOUND IN THE NORTHERN PART OF NIGERIA. YOU CAN HATE YOUR NEIGHBOURS AND EXPECT THEM TO VOTE FOR YOU.

Obi will be president! The reason you like Soludo now is because the generality of Igbos don't like him. If Igbos rally round Soludo in the future, you'll look for a fault why he should not be president. We know una

Word! Na who no Sabi them. Once it's an Igbo man it's always different and shouldn't be accepted.

When that time occurs they would remind Igbos of a thing he did which he was condemned severally for yet we want to make him president.

I will never insult Prof Wole Soyinka because he is a patriot.

He is from the Yoruba school of thought who believed we should concede to the Ibos to foster national unity. Prof. even had to dare death during the civil war to visit the East which led to his detention.

Bro, Peter Obi CANNOT be elected president in Nigeria, not now and not in 20years. His time is spent already, wake up to reality.

Online we do hear Yoruba Christian/Muslims from Ibo people who try creating the divide, we never knew it’s a direct assignment from Ibo leadership like Peter Obi. For him to strategically try to drive a wedge between SW christians/Muslims shows the kind of asinineee character he has.

One good thing I love is that people that share the mindset of Prof in the SW don’t have the power to effect anything. Anything they say is just for academic purpose and the school of thought that wield power in the West have a different approach to the Ibo question.

This your mental imbalance is generational.

So Wole Soyinka a professor of English Literature should come out and campaign for a 3rd Class Philosophy degree holder. You need mental evaluation.

Power is never served on a platter of gold. You fight for it, snatch it, and run away with it. That is what we Yorubas just did for the 2nd time in less than 20 years.

You have to fight for power. The presidency was not zoned to Obasanjo's village when he became president in 1999. He fought for it. Alex Ekwueme, Abubakar Rimi, and several other clowns contested against Obasanjo in 1999, and he defeated them all. Also in 2003, the lord of the Igbos Emeka Agbari Ojukwu, Muhammadu Buhari, and several other clowns contested with Obasanjo and he defeated them.

Despite the death of MKO Abiola in prison, we Yorubas still did not insist that the presidency should be zoned to our villages, we contested against other zones and won.

Musa Yar'Adua also contested with other zones in 2007, likewise Goatluck in 2011, 2015, and 2019, none of Nigeria's presidents got to the position by zoning the presidential seat to their village.

So, Nigerian's presidency will never ever be zoned to Igbos. Since Igbos will never learn how to form alliances, then it simply means that an Igbo man will never ever rule Nigeria. You saw the negligible votes that the Igbo candidate (Peter Pandora) got throughout the core North.

Prof is a committed democrat who understood that in a democracy, you have to build the bridges and win a nationally contested election to be president.

Peter Obi the religious bigot believed he can win election with only Christian votes and he waged religious war polarizing pastors to use their sacred altar for propaganda. He even went all the way to tell Bishop Oyedepo what propaganda to push on a certain day especially when you know the Bishop got thousands or millions of adherents.

Even Tinubu who chose a Muslim-Muslim ticket still appeal to the Christians and had to go all the way to CAN headquarters to explain himself.

There might be an Ibo president in the future, but it won’t be Obi because he already killed his chances by himself. I tip Prof. Soludo in that regard.

We will prefer an Rt. Hon. Amaechi, Prof Soludo,Engr. Dave Umahi or Dr Godfrey Onyeama. These are the one that we can trust. Politics is about everyone being carried along. Even though I don't support Tinubu, I realized that he campaigned like his party wasn't the ruling party. He was everywhere begging for votes. You can't play divisive politics and expect the North to vote for you in totality. It doesn't work that way. If only HE Peter Obi remained in PDP and Turaki won this election, he would have been the sure banker in the next election. You must build alliances and bridges to win a presidential election in Nigeria, no be beans.

PS: I didn't bother to read the piece of trash.

What elections are over?
Perhaps, except for the 2015 presidential campaign, Wole Soyinka has never been known for siding presidential candidates.
The last presidential election was no election. It was rather a selection.
Therefore, it's not yet over.
For example:
FIFA do have rules for a football match. It empowers every referee to use his/her initiatives to arbitrate for every match.
But if midway into the match, a referee shifted the goalpost to enable his/her favoured team to win the match, FIFA judges MUST cancel the result of the football match.
INEC Chairman publicly vowed before Nigerians before the last presidential election that the election results MUST be transmitted directly from the BVAS to INEC iREV portal in real time, to enable voters also see the progress of collation of votes and how the eventual winner would emerge.

But either by commission or omission, the INEC'S iREV portal was dysfunctional when vote results were to be transmitted after voting ended. Voters never followed the vote collation processes by INEC, or how the winner emerged.
That was a breach of trust by INEC. If the purported winner is allowed to carry the crown and gets sworn in as presidentofNigeria, that is obviously going to hinder voters from participating in election in future. It's like ending democracy in Nigeria.

Dey play. Same reason why Ibos' refused to vote for Olu Falae (who happened to be the choice of majority of yorubas) and voted Obasanjo instead, is why Peter was and will always be rejected by majority of Nigerians. Peter Obi was rejected in yorubaland (and the North) during the last presidential elections because we could see that he's a bigot, so he can never be president of Nigeria coz he lacks the requisite pan-Nigeria spread.

If an Iboman will be president, he must be one that most Nigerians would feel comfortable with, not a bigot like Peter Obi. So you people must come to terms with the fact that the rest of Nigeria will be the ones to decide the best Ibo to be president, not you bigots in the SE. Know that and know peace.
