this is the problem, why should we refer to humans as minorities?

Every tribe is superior with its unique culture and norms. That some tribes have more population than others should not be seen as superior to others. If we can overcome this, the better for the nation.

From 1955 To Date, No Igbo Had Ever Held The Position Of CJN . WHAT ARE THEIR SINS?

The Igbos have been underrepresented in the position of Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN) despite their significant contributions to the country's legal profession. Here's a breakdown:

Since 1955, no Igbo person has held the position of CJN.

Out of the 17 Chief Justices of Nigeria, none have been of Igbo descent.

The Igbos have been marginalized in the Nigerian justice system, with limited representation in the Supreme Court and other high-ranking judicial positions.

This underrepresentation has led to calls for greater inclusivity and representation in the country's judicial system. Many argue that the lack of Igbo representation in the CJN position is a result of systemic bias and discrimination. Addressing this imbalance is essential for promoting equity and fairness in Nigeria's justice system.

There are 6 zones in nigeria
Igbos occupy one zone alone so when people say igbos they mean South East

South East produce most lawyers according to recent stats

If you think South East not producing CJN is not injustice then it's ok
CJN is appointed based on seniority and not based on Tribes and Geo-political zones.

Justices Katsina-Alu ,Idris Kutigi and Alfa Belgore are all from minority Tribes in the North-Central Geo-political zone, yet they became CJN.



Overall, I think Southern lawyers first practice Law for years before joining the Judiciary, hence they clock retirement aga earlier so they don't serve long enough to reach the rank of CJN

mrvitalis:
Nigeria have 6 zone igbos occupy a full zone
Plus spill over into two other zones

Comparing igbos to smaller ethnicity found in just one state is foolishness

So you feel on one zone out of the 6 zone not producing CJN especially when that zone produce most lawywea is normal and not manipulated?

Let's all be sincere for once
Mumu!

There is the Midwest region made up of Delta and Edo states.

This region is very marginalized because it has only two states. You dont see their citizens crying for more states.

The Midwest region is approximately twice the size of Southeast region.


The British handed over Nigeria to the igbo man

What did your ancestors do?

You wanted to overwhelm and oppress other tribes and then killed their leaders.

It was an igbo man who scrapped regional government. It was an igbo man who wrote the constitution that brought about unitary government.

It was an igbo man that opposed the inclusion of referendum in the constitution of Nigeria.




Victim mentality because your greed isnt accented to.
