Igbo the largest or second largest ethic group in Nigeria? Now I know where una problem come from. The earlier una start to dey humble una self the better. All these chest beating won't take you people anywhere in this country called Nigeria.
The type of Nigeria you people want can never exist for long.

You want Nigeria where the third tripod of the country is excluded from holding apex political leadership.

FYI, the Roman empire, the Soviet empire etc all existed and are no more.

You people are merely marking time in one Nigeria acquiring from oil and gas receipts.

Igbo had no representation in supreme court before Tinubu became president. It was Tinubu who elevated 3 Igbo men to supreme court as justices.
Since ihejirika left as chief of Army staff,Igbo never had a service chief until Tinubu appointed an Enugu indigene as current chief of Naval staff
The clamour for SE development commission became a reality under Tinubu govt.
A campus of NCAT has been approved for the zone
Enugu-PH road is being reconstructed by this government. Just to mention a few
The ordinary man in the streets of igboland doesn't feel the impact of all these u mentioned above. Let the south east enjoy what the sw and nw enjoys like the standard railway, free movements, good federal roads, inclusion in the gas pipeline project etc.. that's only when igbos will start taking tinibu and his apc serious.

Nothing ever pleases habitual complainers and perpetual losers. Even if you gave them your head, they'd still say you’ve done nothing. Buhari, who completed the second River Niger bridge, was still called all sorts of unprintable names. Remember, Tinubu didn’t get votes from the South East to become president, and he doesn’t need them now. They are irrelevant and inconsequential in the grand scheme of things.

SMH.

You don't understand the meaning of country. Most of you are foooolish. In a sovereign country, every citizen is entitled to invest and settle in any part of the country, and entitled to vote, or be voted for in elections where they live.
But you people only stick to one Nigeria because of lucre from crude oil and gas deposits in the Niger delta region. You have no interest in one Nigeria. You people's interest in Nigeria is use proceeds from crude oil and gas deposits in the delta to develop your side of Nigeria. That's all.
I know you must be too young to know that South West, was developed by Awolowo with proceed from agriculture, mainly cocoa and coffee. Maybe you don't know your geography, Ondo State is in South West and is one of the oil producing states. I know you a little kid, so no need wasting my time here. Make yourself happy.

That is your uninformed opinion. Your opinion is different from the opinion of the majority of South South people and that of South East governors.

Having said the above, No Yoruba that witnessed June 12 , 1993 election expects 25% from South East except Peter OBI directed
them to vote for the person, even if Peter OBI directed them to vote for the Yoruba man, I can bet it, about 70% of the people will rather abstain from voting.

I based my submission on the statements made by IBO elders against Abiola before the election and on my experience with my University course mates. Chief Tony Anenih had to plead with Chief Ezeife the Anambra SDP governor for SDP (not Abiola) to win narrowly in Anambra. The rest South East States, ABIOLA lost.

The saddest thing for ABIOLA is the loss of Rivers State. Abiola was very sad, he never expected he will lose Rivers (Bayelsa was not yet created). He later found out it was because of the IBOS domination and influence. Abiola won the remaining South South States. TINUBU should never forget WIKE.

IBOs votes for TINUBU goes beyond projects in South East.

2027 should not even be the priority now. When Buhari came in 2015 and met a looted and depressed economy when governors were finding it hard to pay salary and no major project, no tension or campaign about 2019 election. TINUBU came and met en economy on life support where multinational corporations are leaving, fiscal and monetary policies in disarray , just 6 months of intelligent hardwork , the shout of 2027 started.

That's what I meant from the beginning check my initial comment; I said less than 5 federal ministers
Those ministers are state ministers right?

Show us where it is the Constitution that Minister of States are not Federal Ministers.

You sow sparingly but want to reap bountifully.

Stop being the spokeperson for SS

Stop lumping them together with yourself

Just talk about your SE and move on
4 of 6 SS Gov are currently with him in APC and he even won 3 SS states in 2023


You two dont play politics the same way
The SS has, historically, always voted sane was as SE. Tinubu managed to win 2 states in SS, his victory is Rivers State was orchestrated by Wike who tinibu has rewarded with a position as FTC minister.


A few SS governors have decamped go APC but it doesn't mean the SS are with Tinubu. May I remind you what happened when the Akwa Ibom governor wanted to decamp?

Be guided

We know. Tinubu doesn't need South East votes to be president. It will do APC much good if you Igbo people vote for Peter obi en mass as you did in the last election.

As if their votes have made anyone President in Nigeria in the last 10 years.

They should withhold their votes and then start shouting victimisation as usual after 2027 General Elections like their forefathers also did.

Never seen such a stupid set of people before!

Tinubu continued from where Buhari stopped in marginalizing Igbos.


First time in the history of Nigeria, a President disobeyed Nigeria's constitution that made it compulsory that every state must produce at least one federal Minister, but under Bola Tinubu, Southeast got less than 5 federal ministers. Something that is constitutional yet his Yoruba brothers will still give million reasons why it is right even when it's not backed by Nigeria's constitution that the so called President swore to uphold.


But they expect Igbos to be singing his praises because he is called Tinubu aka Baba Sope cheesy



We full ground sha, Igbos have seen it all, people that rose from the ashes where only 20 pounds was given to them after a devastating civil war no matter how many millions they had in the bank before the war, they still managed to rise back to enviable heights today, is it ordinary Presidents marginalizing them for 4 or 8 years that they wont survive?


They survived even Buhari's 8 years of evil rule, so Tinubu's own will pass too, he should continue to build his legacy of wickedness, ethnic bias, cronyism, tribalism and corruption, his name will be forever remembered.
..... just like Kanu and Simon Ekpa names will forever be remembered as causing economic damage in the SE through their Monday lockdown.

So, does it mean the Minister of state is reporting to state governor? Abi na state dey pay him salary? Because the last time I saw madam Bianca Ojukwu, she was with the Senate president in Rome representing the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Minister of State is like a Deputy Speaker that is below the Main Minister. Minister of state is a Junior Minister.

Where does he has an impact of not for his fellows Apc politicians embezzling money….in a sensible society ,Tinubu will not see 25% in all the 36 States and Fct….but a society full of emotionally unstable like Nigeria ,he can still win and after 2 years of his second term the followers will begin to say they regret which has been their normal behavior since 1999….Nigeria will never be good because the followers are foolish and the leaders know it obviously so they are under no pressure…Tinubu knows he doesn’t need to make an average Nigeria be independent and good to get their elections….he knows the more politicians he has will spend money for the fools to vote for him apparently….what a country

Everything is targeted at the Igbos. Exchange rate is high all over the country. Igbo man say it targeted at them. Minimum wage cannot buy a bag of rice all over the country. Igbo man say it their own marginalization.

Shut the hell up, m%r%n!

Who’s excluding you people? Who? You’re the ones excluding yourselves with your arrogance and overbearing behaviour!

Power is won at the ballot box, not dashed out. Sadly, your arrogant people always feel they can make terrible political choices and then once those choices fall flat in their faces, they can still then make arrogant demands on those who played their cards well and won elections centrally! It does not work that way.

The South-South is made up of mainly minority tribes but they’re more politically wise and mature than you people, and that’s why they’ve not only caught up with you people politically but they’ve surpassed you.

If you’re not careful, they’ll not only grab the Vice Presidential slot in 2031 but also pip you to the Presidency again in 2038.

You’d better humble yourselves for once in your entire lifetimes and learn to play politics properly. You cannot intimidate anyone to hand over power to you in Nigeria. It will never work!
