The 2023 Nigerian presidential election has left a sour taste in the mouths of many southeasterners, who claim that Bola Tinubu forcefully took the presidency, disregarding the region's turn to produce the next leader. This perceived injustice has sparked widespread outrage and calls for restructuring. According to Edwin Clark, convener of the Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF), the southeastern region has been marginalized and excluded from key positions of power. Clark pointed out that Tinubu's administration has appointed 10 Yorubas as ministers from the southwest, while only five ministers were appointed from the southeast. The election results from the southeast, south-south, and north have been cited as evidence of the region's dissatisfaction with Tinubu's presidency. Many southeasterners feel that their complains were ignored, and that Tinubu's boastful claims of it being "his turn" to become president were a clear indication of his disregard for the region's aspirations. The controversy has reignited calls for restructuring and greater autonomy for Nigeria's regions. Clark has urged Tinubu to implement the 2014 National Conference Report, which recommends greater decentralization of power and resources. As the debate rages on, southeasterners continue to demand justice and equality in Nigeria's political landscape. Will Tinubu's administration listen to their concerns, or will the region's dissatisfaction continue to simmer? Only time will tell. Tinubu is a certified failure as his presidency has been marked by soaring prices of essential commodities like fuel, kerosene, diesel, gas, food, and transportation, causing untold hardship to Nigerians. The latest fuel price hike, which saw prices skyrocket from ₦198 to ₦1,030 per liter in just 18 months, is a stark reminder of his administration's ineptitude. Furthermore, many believe that Tinubu's ascension to the presidency was unjust, as he allegedly "forcefully took" the position meant for the South Eastern region in the 2023 general presidential election. His boastful claims that it was "his turn" to become president, regardless of the people's vote, have only added fuel to the fire. The South Eastern people are now demanding justice, vowing to "forcefully take back" the presidency from Tinubu in 2025 or seek his impeachment. They insist that they will not be silenced or ignored, and that justice must be served, regardless of the opinions of other groups. |

PresidObi:You call this writeup nonsense? Maybe something is wrong with your brain because what I can observe from your comment is that you are talking without thinking: this write up is a wonderful good write up showing injustice done to the southeasterners in Nigeria. If it you, somebody is busy talking your property right in your front, would you not act quickly to retrieve it back before the plunderer escape with it? |

Peakdesign23:Sometimes you people talk as if you do not have any brain in your heads. How can you be asking someone who have been wrong not to seek for justice or someone whose property have been forcefully taken away from him not to seek justice to reclaim his rightful thing. Almost everyone knows that the southeasterners have been politically wronged in Nigeria. Stop talking without thinking. |
