Sit-at-home: South-east Governors Made Me Stop Clamour For Igbo Presidency by mohbadliveson(op): 9:31pm On Nov 08, 2024
Before now, I used to be a strong supporters of Igbo presidency.

However, the failure of the governors to address the sit at home in their region and create a good economic opportunities for their people made me stop calling for Igbo presidency.

If you can't tackle rag tag warlords in your state, how can you tackle insecurity if you become president of a multi-faceted country like Nigeria?

Did Buhari address the security in the North during his first term? Was he not voted again?
How does inability of state governors, who are not even in charge of any armed force in their state, be a yardstick to measure their qualification for the office of the president? Or are you just trying to mask your bigotry?

I dont blame them. When you have people like Eedris Abdulkareem and the rest of them in the same region, you will know the bar is low.

Go and sleep, oga. Did Buhari tackle Boko Haram or banditry before he became president? When it gets to the South East, the rule changes.

BTW, stop using that word "Igbo presidency" because it sounds stupid. I have never heard of Yoruba or Fulani presidency before.

Oh really? But you are talking about South East only

But the same Nigeria elected and re-elected a Fulani man called Buhari, as Fulani herdsmen were killing Nigerians across all 6 geopolitical zones in Nigeria

So please explain to me how those who are killing people across all 6 geopolitical zones, destroying farmlands, raping women, managed to produce President Buhari for 8 years? But the insecurity only in one zone disqualifies them? Or is one higher than six?

Explain this magic so we may all learn

The Igbo's are not interested in Nigeria presidency. They are only interested in the VP position

Not really fair to blame those guys. They don't command any troops. They are as scared of IPOB as everyone else there.

But you rewarded Buhari who was an advocate of bokoharam with presidency and went ahead chosed bokoharam patron as Tinubu's VP.
Why do you people set different rules and standard for southeast?

So let me get this straight.

Nigerians elected and re-elected Buhari while herdsmen were ravaging the country, in fact, people in the middle belt have been sacked from their villages till date. Nigerians elected and reelected GEJ as VP and President after Niger Delta militants had held the region and oil installations to ransom for many years, and with active militants still in the creeks even after the amnesty. Nigeria even has a current VP from a state which is the headquarters of one of the deadliest insurgent groups in the world.

But somehow you have a problem with an Igbo man being President. That is really weird!
