Rather, without strategy. What electoral reform was needed for GEJ? We've had Nnamdi Azikiwe and even Ironsi. What should all the other minority tribes and states say? Have we had a Kanuri president or an Ibibio president?
Igbos were in charge of Senate for so long, they did not push these reforms?

Are you serious? In this country? I strongly doubt. There is a kind of unwritten gang up against the Igbo nation.
Just simple sincere display of trust across the bridges will do.

Igbo Nation just need to show they are truly ready and support one Nigeria as a Country

Nigeria won't move forward until we stop this tribal mentality towards leadership. It's a mental slavery that we created for ourselves, same goes for zone and religion ticket. Let's vote for individuals due to their individual qualities not tribal, not religion, not geographical zone. Whoever brought this idea of politics into Nigeria did is dirty badly.
Re: Without Electoral Reforms, Igbo Presidency Will Be Impossible – Ohanaeze by Honestey: 2:29pm On Aug 11, 2025
No electoral reform can make a candidate with lesser vote counts win election. The current Igbo youth are attacking everyone who has a different opinion on any issue especially anything that has to do with politics and by that act making it difficult for them to have support of majority of Nigerians in election. So how is electoral reform going to make ibo president happens in this instance?

Imagine Oyo State alone getting the allocation of 5states altogether to build Oyo State. Wouldn't the development in Oyo State make a great difference in the whole of Nigeria so much that the indigenes of Oyo State will be so proud of themselves bearing their state of indigene and doing as much as possible to remain at home?

The whole of South East equals Oyo State and with 5 Governors. I wonder why that region is what it is that people are not happy to claim their region except being obsessed with Lagos? Nothing to show! For a small region with so much collective allocation. So wetin happen?
Where do you guys always get this baseless lies that Oyo state is bigger then the whole of south east from?
The population of oyo state is 5.5m and the population Anambra State alone is over 4 million.
So how is Oyo state bigger than the South East?
Are Governors not supposed to govern people?
Is it that you guys are just ignorant or always want to be mischievous.[

You guys will never be developed as the South East, that's why you keep claiming capital areas like Lagos and Ibadan. But Onitsha, Aba and Nnewi did not have to be capital of anywhere for Igbos to make them what they are.
Running man grin you hardly make any reasonable comment.

Do you think Lagos would be what it is had it not been capital of Nigeria for 80 years?

Do you think Ibadan would be what it is had it not been capital of the Western Region before independence. The Oyo State you talk about only has land, nobody care about the size of your land, it won't add one Naira to anyone's pocket

Countries like Gambia are just 2 million people. Countries like Singapore is not even the size of the smallest state in Nigeria, but has bigger GDP than Nigeria

Nobody cares about size of your land
grin indeed, oyo state as only land but yet Ibadan is more developed and of more economic value to Nigeria than your 5plot of unproductive potopoto land😂😂😂 numbers don’t lie nwokem. You ipobidient minions can continue living in denial and believe development is only about building empty mansions on potopoto land.

A region that lacks infrastructure, viable industries and FDI, world class universities, hospitals etc is what they keep comparing with Ibadan grin you can see I didn’t even mention Lagos, because it’s only fair to compare sad yeast to oyo state because of the size in term of land mass, that should be a concern for those with critical thinking grin make Una continue with Una obsession with Lagos yorubaland grin btw proudly Lagos grin

Any ibo man can become the president of Nigeria with or without electoral reforms but they need to put their house in order.
This tribe are in competition with themselves and there is no unity , a classical example is the case in the 2003 and 2007 elections where they presented more than three candidates vying for the presidential post flying different political party flags rather than queuing behind late Odimegwu Ojukwu the most formidable candidate.

cheesy no, let them continue abusing Tinubu and Yoruba people, now they are trying to court the north after calling them all manner of derogatory names. They think the northerners are fools grin
Re: Without Electoral Reforms, Igbo Presidency Will Be Impossible – Ohanaeze by doncartel: 3:02pm On Aug 11, 2025
When Pdp was in power, they refused all suggestions of electoral reforms. Apc will also refuse electoral reforms until there is divine intervention like what happened in 2015. I can bet you if Pdp comes back, they will still refuse reforms until there’s another divine intervention.

What we are using now is divine intervention.
Re: Without Electoral Reforms, Igbo Presidency Will Be Impossible – Ohanaeze by hotseat: 3:05pm On Aug 11, 2025
The factional Ohanaeze Ndigbo has stated the obviously bitter but honest truth.

Not too long, they would begin to accuse the group of being sponsored by Tinubu, their usual fall guy!

Let it be sounded once again, except by the act of God, Tinubu is good to go for 8 uninterrupted years.

Tinubu is a political enigma , cool and calculated and has everything tidied up!

Only the realization of this fact would set the nay-sayers free from crass delirium.

It wasn't impossible for Ijaw people, it wasn't impossible for Yoruba people, it wasn't impossible for Hausa people, but it'd be impossible for Igbo people.

Why is this so?

This leaves only one thing to imagine: they want rules that would be particularly advantageous to them in order to win, similar way Gringori and his core supporters are terrified of going into the ring and slugging it out with other contestants for the party's ticket through an open contest. They want others to be disenfranchised in favour of him.

Hear this, no one would hand you guys anything on a silver platter. You'd fight for it like others have been doing. If Nigerians figure you're deserving of the crown, you'd be crowned. Otherwise you'd stay where you are and keep whining about the snags you see on your path until eternity.
which Hausa people tell me the Hausa has rule Nigeria before. For your information Hausa have never rule Nigeria before

The problem is from the centralized structure of the country and the erroneous belief that only leaders from our region can care about our issues.
The British left us with the best option but we messed it up. Rather than accept this error we continue to look for different solutions that may or may not work.
Real workable federalism is the way to go with more power and control to the federating units.

Your yarns always piss me off.

You are complaining of Ndigbo leadership. Presidency to be precise. How about your region embroiled in crisis. Fulani herdsmen mass depopulation agenda, decimating your peoples?

It doesn't concern you,abi? But prefers to SHOOK mouth on Igbo affairs?? Why the Igbo phobiahuh

Please, settle the immediate problems facing your region. Then, you will be accorded all the respect.

Ok. If Peter Obi is a goner,has it changed the political landscape of Nigeria?

Is not same poverty pervading the land with preferred candidates of North and Southwest.

Nigeria cannot progress without IBO presidency. Poverty and deprivation is what you will see.

Mark my words!

Basically you want them to change the rules of the game to make up for your inability to learn how to play politics.


The problem with the Ibos is they always deflect. It’s always someone else that is the problem. They never take responsibility.

Nobody since 1959 has won an election to president or prime minister without the backing of other tribes. Nobody!

The uncomfortable reality the Ibos are deflecting and run away from is: why is it the Ibos cannot find partners outside Ibo land willing to back them and support the Ibo presidency? SS (GEJ) found support, SW (abiola, OBJx2, Tinubu) found support 4 times, why always you?
Because they are very arrogant, it will be very difficult for them to become President.

No be only electoral reforms. Imagine the entire east can't get the support of other regions except if they go there to populate those regions !!!!

Anyways maybe the Igbos should also do a cultural reform and put an end to the osu caste system they have been practicing then maybe they would be some progress for them in the presidential elections.....
Re: Without Electoral Reforms, Igbo Presidency Will Be Impossible – Ohanaeze by aribisala0(m): 3:55pm On Aug 11, 2025
These people should not change mouth
In 2022 they were saying inObi cannot win let the North continue
2hat that means is Obi must contest in 2027

Come 2035 the relationship with Yoruba shall be
dey your dey

Yoruba will always contest whenever it comes south
Ibos should not seek any favours


Nobody worry Nobody
