… and that’s it .

History ***
When Zik won election as Prime Minister, they rigged him out, started cross carpeting from one party to the other as they do now and that was the beginning of Nigeria decline.


It was Ahmadu Bello lead Fulani that started election rigging, which trigger coup that killed him and others invlved.


Fast forward to 2023 they repeated it again with Peter Obi

When we win election they will rig it, and then come to tell us Islam.

The joke is on them because Islam has no place in Igboland.

If this Fulani man was a Jihardist terrorist, Igbo people wont have voted for him against a felow Igbo.

Plus, rather than look at his tribe like Ahmaduu Bello they were looking at his Policies.

NCNC led by Zik liberated the Mid west from Western Region hegemony and marginalization.
And Ironically the same NCNC led by Zik stood against the liberation of the COR areas from the Eastern Region. So liberation was only meant for minorities in the West but not for minorities in the East? Mind you that the quest for Midwest creation was started by Oba Akenzua and Zik only rode on it opportunistically to attempt killing the AG in favour of his NPC-NCNC ruling coalition with Balewa . The ruling coalition would later crumble and the same Balewa used that very Midwest to fight Zik by way of getting the Midwest to support the NNA alliance which had just been consummated between Akintola's NNDP and NPC to frustrate the UPGA which Zik had rushed to form with the same AG he rejected at independence. In conclusion, much as the creation of Midwest was desired by the natives, Zik's support of it was with sinister intentions which later boomeranged on him.

Even when Adaka Boro declared Nigeria Delta Republic from the Eastern Region, Zik and his cotravellers like Ironsi and Ojukwu stopped him with the federal military might of one Nigeria

The 1951 Nnamdi Azikiwe elections, Awolowo, just like his muslim brother Ahmadu Bello could not help himself from Tribalism.


In March 1951, Awo and his mostly Yoruba supporters established the Action Group (AG) party to prevent Zik from winning the western election, and in effect becoming the most powerful political leader in the entire southern Nigeria. Accordingly, the main themes in AG’s campaign messaging that year were opposition to Zik, the idea the west should be for “Westerners”, and the threat of “Ibo domination.”
All of them were crying Igbo domination yet today, let the Igbo go they are still holding Nnamdi Kanu
Re: Meet Malam Umaru Altine; The First Elected Mayor Of Enugu by Mrexcell(m): 5:50pm On Feb 05, 2025
Igbos are the most detribalised ethnic group in nigeria if not for the born to rule mentality and the murderous nature of the fulanis I don't think any igbo person will have any problem with them.
Re: Meet Malam Umaru Altine; The First Elected Mayor Of Enugu by Stolen: 5:51pm On Feb 05, 2025
U see Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello, they were the originator of Igbo domination and tribal bigotry in Nigeria.

Til this day, Igbo voted Obasanjo, Yaradua, Jonathan, rejected Buhari and Tinubu


It is time to return the favour by electing an Igbo, even if he win like Obi they will rig him out.

Awo’s Nigerian Tribune newspaper claimed Zik’s “political and social activities had this Ibo-domination inclination” for years. The paper also urged Zik, who was contesting a seat in the Yoruba-majority city of Lagos, to stay out of western politics since he did not belong to the region
An editorial in Tribune stated it was “an insult to all westerners” for Zik, an Igbo, to be contesting in their region. Why could he not go and contest in his eastern “homeland”? Meanwhile, AG campaign posters urged “true born” western Nigerians to vote AG because it stood for “western solidarity”.

You mean Zik,the tribalist who left the East to try to govern people who were way way advanced more than him and what his region stood for?
He wanted Premier not Mayor of Ibadan.
A lot of Yorubas didn't see his hidden chameleon trait Thanks to Awolowo who
saw it.
He saved the SW from the backwardness Zik would have plunged it into.
Re: Meet Malam Umaru Altine; The First Elected Mayor Of Enugu by Stolen: 5:58pm On Feb 05, 2025
Nigeria First election rigging, pay attention.


The 1951 election results revealed a country divided into regional party enclaves: the east dominated by Zik’s NCNC, the north by Ahmadu Bello’s NPC and the west by Awo’s AG. The western elections were, however, a close battle between NCNC and AG, and both claimed victory after voting-day. Most candidates had stood without party labels, resulting in a brief period of confusion regarding which party some elected members would represent. When it emerged AG had the majority, NCNC cried foul, claiming some members who pledged allegiance to it before the elections were lured by AG after the vote via corrupt methods. AG denied this, going on to form a regional government.

Additionally, AG embarked on a complicated political manoeuvre – clearly masterminded by Awo as a letter I uncovered in his personal archives revealed – to ensure Zik was not elected to the central House of Representatives from the western region’s House of Assembly, as used to be the practise at the time. This successful manoeuvring included turning some elected NCNC members against Zik with promises of well-paid political posts. In effect, Zik was forced to remain in the western assembly as an essentially powerless opposition leader, rather than head to the federal legislature to coordinate NCNC’s activities from there as his party had previously planned.

The bitter nature of the 1951 western elections and Awo’s subsequent scheming to ”sink Azikiwe in the Western House” as he described it, was bitterly remembered for years in NCNC and wider Igbo circles. Some point to this as the moment ethnic politics arrived Nigeria for good with the message for Zik being that he return to his eastern homeland and leave the west to be run by westerners. And indeed, in 1953, Nnamdi Azikiwe returned to the east, refocussing his political career in his home region.

EmeeNaka:
Igbos were the true Nigerian. At the dawn of independence, every Igbo man see Nigeria as a place that belongs to everyone. But the North and South West saw a different thing, and were carefully using politics of bitterness and tribe to stoke the flame of hate that is currently burning across Nigeria.
Is this your dogo turenchi of bitterness and tribe to stoke the flame of hate, reflected in the almost 100% votes in the five south yeastern states for Pandora Bitter Obi, which unwittingly helped T-Pain achieve his ebilokan turn for extra level APC shege on 200 million Nigerians?

jameshankss:
Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, has said he is sure the candidate of Labour Party (LP), Mr Peter Obi, would lose the 2023 presidential election. Soludo said he would not submit to the bullying of Obi’s supporters, who recently descended on him for addressing issues in the state.

The governor made the comments in a lengthy write-up personally authored, with the title, “History Beckons, and I Will Not Be Silent (Part 1).”

Soludo said Obi was inadvertently making the pathway to victory much easier for the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, and at the same time, toying with the destiny of millions of Ndigbo.

But the chief spokesperson for the Labour Party Presidential Campaign, Yunusa Tanko, accused Soludo of being sponsored by some unknown persons to weaken the base of the party in the South-east.

The former CBN governor had been under intense attack for close to a week for dismissing Obi’s investment in the state as amounting to nothing, during a television interview.

Soludo said in the write-up, “My attention has been drawn to some of the tirades on social media following my frank response during an interview on Channels TV regarding the ‘investments’ Mr. Peter Obi claimed to have made with Anambra State revenues.

“Sadly, several of the comments left the issue of the interview to probe or suggest motives, inferred from my response on ‘investment’ that I am opposed to Peter Obi’s ambition and, therefore, committed a ‘crime’ for which the punishment is internecine abuse and harassment, even to my family.

“Everyone knows that I don’t follow the winds or one to succumb to bullies, or shy away from a good fight especially, when weighty matters of principles and future of the people are involved.”

Soludo said he had urged Obi to return to his former party, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), to actualise his presidential bid. He added that he had always told the LP candidate to his face that he was not capable of winning the 2023 presidential election, especially, under LP, which had neither a councillor nor a local government chairman.

Soludo said Obi was not just his friend, but also his brother, but despite that, they have their political differences.

He stated, “For full disclosure, let me state that Peter Obi and I are not just friends, we call ourselves ‘brothers’. But we have political differences: he left APGA for PDP after his tenure as governor, while I have remained in APGA since 2013.

“During the last two governorship elections in Anambra in 2017 and 2021, he led the PDP campaigns but APGA won landslide in both elections. By the way, in 2016, he visited and proposed that I defect to PDP and contest the 2017 election against the incumbent Willie Obiano, but I declined.

“After my victory in November 2021, he called to congratulate me, as I did to him in 2010. That is the Anambra way: we fight fiercely during campaigns but share drinks at the next social events. After all, it was the Great Zik of Africa, who taught us that in politics, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies but only permanent interests.”

Arguing that Obi’s presidential bid would only work in favour of Tinubu, Soludo said, “Indeed, if I were Asiwaju Tinubu, I would even give Peter Obi money as someone heading one of the departments of his campaign, because Obi is making Tinubu’s pathway to victory much easier by indirectly pulling down PDP.”

Obi, according to Soludo, would only deplete the votes of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pave the path for an APC victory.

He stated, “The current fleeting frenzy, if not checked, will cost Ndigbo dearly for years. The South-east has the lowest number of votes of any region, but it is also the only region where the presidential race might be a four-way race (it is a two-way race in the other five regions) thereby, ensuring that our votes won’t count in the making of the next president of Nigeria.
