To become a president In Nigeria u ave to fight for it dat is just d honest true, if u keep claiming it is our turn our turn without u truly fighting for it with serious strategy it will never be ur turn, politics no emotion attached to it, some regions are ready to become president for fifty years continuously

The truth is the people of the SE do not have capable leaders but most importantly they do not deserve it. They should go n be president of ipobland.

crossfm:
Hehehe.

They will say this doesn't matter.

And no marginalisation .

The people of North Central are even more marginalized in my opinion. Power always comes to the North,but they are always ignored.
The people of North Central are only good for bringing massive vote's,but not good for rulling the country. I have had this theory often,that for one to win the president,the person must will the North Central,yet they are always been relegated when it's time to chose the president or vice.

As for South East, the hate is real. They believe they are too smart to be given the president. You want one Nigeria,but you don't want a section of Nigeria to be the president,what an irony.

We all know the truth,but we will all pretend that it's not the truth. No region has monopoly of rulling. Nigeria should give sense of belonging to every region and you will see peace and progress.

When next power is to go back to the North,let it be the North Central.

The South East now have a chance to produce a Vice President if Peter Obi will team up with Atiku Abubakar in the upcoming election....

Only that Alliance can defeat Jagaban

If Peter Obi contest alone, he will lose

If Atiku Abubakar contest alone, he will lose

When Atiku Abubakar is done with his Presidency, then Peter Obi can become president.

Just watch as Obidients will disagree with me on this..

Thank GOD you know this, their parochial interest will not allow them to form a formidable alliance and after election they will be crying like bushbaby. IRE O

The senate president you have been producing what do you ha e to show foe it ?

NSK4U:
Yet those that continue to produce have nothing to show for it

u r damn wrong on dis.....if previous records is something to use as a yardstick then Obi will do better than Atiku dis time

Oblongata:
These zones have refused to be very strategic politically. Zombu zombu cannot win it. Or claiming the position as birthright or we split. You have to come to the table and let’s see what progress you have for the country.

Since 1999 who has come to say what they have for the country as a Presidential aspirant?
Did they come for debates on National Television as is done in other democracies?
All of them that have won have never attended a debate, we vote for them either based on party or region or religion.

Perhaps Peter Obi and Bukola Saraki can try their luck...

The South needs to complete her 8 years. So Atiku should wait at least he was once a VP, what did he forgot to take at Aso Rock. Atiku was given significant power unlike Osinbajo and Shettima, but did nothing.

If PO is not supported by the coalition, then Tinubu should continue to pile hardship on Nigerians because Nigerians deserve what they get

South East : Ebele (president)
South East : Ebele ( vice president)
I dey awah House, coman beat me!

When the SE n NC win a presidential elecrion they will be president. That is the only prerequisite to presidency not wailing or insult like you dish on other Nigerians for your misfortune.

southsouthking:
And yet everyone is claiming one Nigeria.
What happened to justice, fairness and equity.

That's the right permutation, Obi should agree to run with Atiku as the vice then there will be victory for the coalition definitely no doubt victory will be sure if this happens .

Since 1999, two zones have never produced a President or Vice President. Meanwhile, others have had their turn at the top:

did Nigeria start in 1999?
1960 to 1999, SW didn't cry like rain beaten chicken that you are crying now, because they never feature at the leadership of the country.
Azikwe was president at a point, Ekwueme was Vice president, aguiyi ironsi head of state.

UniQue84:
That's how you people fail exam ....INSTRUCTION: Answer question ONE and and any other 3 ....and you have 6 questions in total ..you went ahead ignoring question one and Answered 4 from the remaining 5 thinking you are smart cos they are all questions.

They said SINCE 1999..stick to the narrative stop the confusion.

Why 1999, na 1999 den create Nigeria? You used the word "never produce President" and "maginalised" and u want me to mumuly follow ur narrative of 1999. Have we had 6 transitions since 1999 that u think it should have gone round? Na u suppose use ur sense. I'm not a mumu.

The East as monopoly of produxing n distributing fake drug n hard drugs. That one self do.

moscow007:
The level of marginalization going on in this country against the Igbos is insane.

Name one thing the Igbos or rather South East as a region has benefited from Nigeria peculiarly...just for SouthEast.

North has quota system (despite the fact that it's South East that lost 3 years of education due to war)

The West monopoly of Ports, pharmaceuticals and industrial chemicals can't be imported from any other part of Nigeria apart from Lagos, all IOCs must have head offices in Lagos and file tax in Lagos, same with Airlines and major mining companies.

Pls name one thing the SouthEast as a region uniquely benefits from Nigeria...I'm waiting

That doesn't matter. If the leaders are competent, then there is no problem however our leaders are greedy and corrupt.

What did you gain when Azikwe n Ironsi were president ?

udemzyudex:
Other zones wey produce wetin be the outcome?

Why not talk about the extra money the governors from this zones are collecting and what have they done with it?

make una no dey call atiku for this matter. He is worse than tinubu, I am Igbo, for me Peter should loose the presidency if it means atiku no go b president.

So who does not vote in one direction ?!
So who does not vote in one direction ?!

mrvitalis:
South East divided among themselves yet the vote in one direction?

Oga Igbos don't vote for selfish reasons... We vote who we believe is a better candidate and vote in one direction... Yet you say we are not united?

Stop the lies oga

Because the two regions don't know how to play politics necessary in a multi cultural nation.

edet19892015:
Unless you understand your role in society, you can never make any meaningful contribution.

According to the Greeks, they are three types of people on Earth,
1. The idiots,
2. The tribesmen, and
3. The citizens.

Studies show only 10% of Africans are citizens.
The remaining 90% are either tribesmen or idiots.

1. When the Greeks used the word "Idiot", they did not use it as a curse word.
Idiots are people who just don’t care.
If they sit for exams, they will cheat.
If they are in government they will steal.

An idiot does not care at all, if he eats bananas he throws the peels anywhere instead of putting them in a trash bin.

IDIOTS won't attend monthly neighborhood meetings. They won't pay security dues. They won't contribute to community development. Even when they see or know about something that will harm others in the community they won't report it. When they see/know/have something that will benefit their community they won't share.

In fact, Idiots don't care to register for or vote in an election, yet they complain the most. If they register to vote, IDIOTS will sell their votes for peanuts.

According to the Greeks, some societies have more idiots than tribesmen and citizens.

2. The next set of people are "Tribesmen", these are people that look at everything from the point of view of their tribe.

These are people that believe in you only if you are part of their tribe.
It can be terrible to have a tribesman as a leader, he will alienate the rest.

When the Greeks talk about tribes, it’s not just about ethnicity, they also consider religion, gang membership, group membership, party membership and even cult membership as a tribe.

A great percentage of Africans are tribesmen, because they view everything from the point of view of their tribes. They trust only their tribesmen

3. The last group are "Citizens".
These are people who like to do things the right way.
They will respect traffic light rules even if no one is watching them.

They drive within speed limits.
They respect the laws, and won’t cheat in exams.
In government, they won’t steal.
They are compassionate and give to others to promote their well-being.

Citizens often promote projects that benefit everyone.
The Greeks called this group "The Citizens".

Some countries have more citizens than tribesmen and idiots, others have so many idiots.

A tribesman can become a citizen through orientation.
And an idiot can become a citizen by training and constant enforcement of the law.

But things fall apart if you elect an idiot or tribesman to lead you if he has not been reformed.

Where do you belong? Are you an idiot, a tribesman or a citizen? Reflect on your life.
Reflect about your immediate community, city, state and nation.

Please name the Presidents. The writer is talking about in democracy.

E no consign me. E choose wetin suite am, I choose wetin suite me. Since 1960, the South East have produced the presidency in Nnamdi Azikwe, Aguiyi Ironsi, Alex Ekwueme and several Senate presidents AND South West have produced presidency in Obasanjo, Sonekan, Tinubu, Diya and no single senate president.
So where is maginalisation?

So we should only do 1 term, abi?

Dey fool yourselves.

What did you gain when Azikwe n Ironsi were president ?

I should be the one asking you that,what did south west gain when Obj was president, what did south south gain when GEJ was president and what did the North gain when Buhari was president.

Tell your governor to work.

lailo:
That's a lie from the pit of hell. Children of nowadays dont know Nigeria history.
(A) North central has ruled Nigeria many times before
1. Yakubu Gowon- 8 years in office- Plateau state
2. Ibrahim Babangida- 8 years in office- Niger State
3. Abdulsalam Abubakar- 1 year in office- Niger State
Several of them have been VP including Idiagbon etc and senate presidents.
(B) The North east produced the first ever PM Tafawa Balewa and Vice President, including Senate presidents, Speakers of HOR
(C) The South East has also produced two presidents in Nnamdi Azikwe, Nigeria first president and Aguinyi Ironsi. Igbos have also produced VP in Ekwueme and several Senate presidents.
So where is the marginalisation?

You have sense!
The OP and his rabble-rousers Social Media are just entertaining the Nairaland Forum - for Traffic 🚦.
The South East Obedient wants to be clever by half!
The Obedient easily think Ruling Nigeria is by 👄

mrvitalis:
Even if you go to 1960 what difference would it make?

No difference my brother, in the history of Nigeria presidency, the South east has produced 3 people(Azikwe, Ironsi and Ekwueme) and South west has produced also 3 people(Obasanjo, Sonekan and Diya). Tinubu is the fourth person.
Kiss the difference

Were igbos not rejoicing when their own victory was anulled ? Was the motion to anull June 12 the freest elwcrion in the history of nigeria till date not moved by an igbo in Nzeribe ?!

Did another Igbo Kanu not lead Youth Earnestly Ask For Abacha ? Same Abacha that killed the winner of June 12 MkO Abiola and his wife Kudirat ?

Did another Igbo Ojukwu not demand that MkO Abiola should be killed fod daring to win the freest prwaidential elecrion in the history of Nigeria ?

Did another Igbo Peter Obi not accept appointment feom the murserwr Abacha after he killed the winner of June 12 MKO Abiola n his Kudirat n Pa Alfred Rewane n many others.

You talk about lovers of injustice, iniquity, oppression bias etc. Why not get a mirror and look at yourself then ask then ask if such people should ever be allowed near the presidency.

I will advice you go for the president of ipobland.

franchasofficia:
Yet the lovers of injustice and iniquity, the supporters of oppression and bias from the Southwest want Igbos to be very happy and jubilant. They expected Igbos to be clapping for them and Tinubu in 2023 even after supporting their son Obasanjo to emerge President.


God is not a God of injustice, at the right time, He will prove to naysayers why He is God, I have absolute faith in God

Antoeni:
South East Are Divided Against Themselves

North Central Are Not Interested /Ready

They have arrived. Which region is not divided. Tell me one.


SE vote in 2023 didn't show a divided region but a people resolute to an agenda.

You can bring another lie

Babangida, Abdusalam and Gowon were past Presidents of Nigeria all from North Central. Nigeria didn't start from 1999. North Central has benefited from Nigeria as heads of state more than any other region. Its too early to talk of Marginalisation of North Central. Though most of you are not conversant with history and chose to sample whatever pleases you.

Yet their candidate keep winning while you that vote in same dirextion can not win. Do you remember the proverb of lunatics doing same thing n wanting a different result ?!

I had my share of presidency when Jonathan became president.
I'm from the south south zone.
I can't turn a deaf and blind ears to the termed marginalization just because I'm not from that region or zone.
I'm only clamouring for fairness justice and equity.
Don't think I'm igbo because i know your type.

North central has been the architect of their doings but I think they will look critically in 2027 and throw support to a Southern president who has the edge to be president and negotiate for presidency when power goes to the north in 2031. The northwest has gotten all the lion share of presidency of the north and it is time for them to take a bow. Igbos deep hatred for yorubas over the years caused thier unable to get support as either president or vice. It will be in the interest of north central and south east to vote massively for tinubu not because they like him but for political consideration. Tinubu when reelected which is possible as at now, he should pick a north central for president and south east for vice president in 2027. Let everyone feel the government.
