You people should stop throwing that word betray around.

Umahi did what he felt was right for the country and party.

That position should go to the South South.

They have never held it before.
You're the one here throwing the word "betrayal "


Are they not both from the same party??

Umahi had not been a legislator at the National Assembly.

Umahi stepping down for Akpabio, is very strategic.

Just as Akpabio stepped down for Tinubu and got rewarded with Senate Presidency, Umahi stepping down for Akpabio will get him rewarded with something in the long run.

Also any EFCC charges him against him by the coming administration will not be possible as he has liased with the coming President and Senate President.
So EFCC is only meant for people in the opposition isn't it?

And you are proud saying it.

Nigeria!

Nothing is given on the "they have never held it before card".

Just campaign for Akpabio and leave that matter. If not, why did presidency not go to the South East? Have they held it before since after the Civil War?

That’s how to play politics, not politics of Nzobu Nzobu, I no go gree, I no go gree. If Orji Uzor Kalu makes any noise, na Abia state born judge who is also married to another Abia state born judge go send him to prison for embezzlement of Abia state money.

We should all remember that Orji Uzor Kalu is the only politician in the South East that Tinubu visited personally to tell that he is contesting for President even when others were still contemplating. Yet, the coward came out publicly to support Ahmed Lawan against all Southern candidates. Now the idiot is begging for Senate President. He couldn’t face Tinubu in an open primary election, instead, he went and recruited enemies against his Southern brothers

If what you’re saying makes sense to you why did you support tinubu for president when you know the igbos have not had it in this dispensation…..

I prefer Akpabio he will fix so many federal roads in his region and neighbouring state

Igbo una know say Akpabio is una in-law. He has the heart of doing anything for any region but he go chop ooo but he go deliver.

Him government is chop I chop

Akpabio really deserves it. He worked hard to ensure Asiwaju got 25% votes in Akwa Ibom and over 160,000 votes. Hope he will perform well to write his name and SS peoples' names in gold. We are all craving for a better Nigeria under the leadership of Asiwaju
Exactly. The work Akpabio put in for Tinubu was very obvious after stepping down for him in the primaries unlike Kalu who antagonised Tinubu all the way and was hobnobbing with Lawan. Even the election results in Abia showed he never cared to work for Tinubu there as he won his own Senate seat while Tinubu lost woefully, both elections held same time. Making Kalu the Senate President would be rewarding disloyalty and treachery.

Umahi stepping down for Akpabio isn’t helping matters too. Umahi don betrayed his fellow Igbo brothers in southeast. This isn’t good enough at all. Umahi should stop this game of betrayals now. Now Orji Uzor Kalu is been supported by other parties too. The senate Presidential seat will be keenly contested and tight next month. It’s unpredictable for now. Orji Uzor Kalu May win the seat at the end. Meanwhile, "Gone are the days when the believe that the education of the girl child will always end up in the kitchen" ~ Wife of the Governor, Erelu Ngozi Adeleke.

The Senate presidency should go to the North or South West, preferably a muslim.

They have never had it before? Really? So, now it's okay to play that card.

No wahala. Just give it to another muslim from the north or even south west.

[color=orange]As far as someone from the South is ruling Nigeria, we are happy with it. We don't want anyone from the North anymore.

Buhari should vacate office with immediate effect because his regime is over.

After Buhari leaves office, no one from the North will ever rule Nigeria again. Take it to the Bank.

The South has taken over[/color]

Nice one from Gov Umahi

All the best Senator Akpabio
Umami understands politics in the way no ibo politician seems to. He is a future SP, VP in 2031 and even president in 2039. He is certainly the no1 ibo man in govt today, a future star. Kalu messed up, you don’t do loyalty half way, you are either loyal all the way or you don’t bother.

@ the embolded, can you remind us of the basis for the glamour for South East presidency again ?

You see how dull u people think ..... To think you can successfully sideline a side .....

Remind me again the basis for the clamour for SE presidency ?

So now, it's no longer "to be contested" but to be given cos THEY HAVE NOT HAD IT BEFORE.

Interesting how unintelligence meets hypocrisy cos u people are very unintelligent.
Re: Umahi Steps Down And Endorses Akpabio For Senate President (Video) by Tareq1105: 9:19am On May 06, 2023
South South should have it. It's their first time. Akpabio did well for Tinubu and APC. He fought a good fight for APC in the south south zone and he delivered and therefore, he deserves to be part of the government.

I commend Sen David Umahi for his understanding.
