Umahi: I May Become Nigeria's President From SouthEast In 2039. by EmekaA125(op): 7:11pm On Aug 17, 2025
I may become Nigeria’s President from the South East in God’s time..” ~ David Umahi.

The Immediate Past Governor of Ebonyi State and current Federal Minister of Works, Sen Engr David Nweze Umahi has predicted the possibility of him clinching the Presidency seat in 2039 when power is expected to rotate back to South based on the unwritten gentleman agreement regarding power rotation between North and South if President Bola Tinubu retains his seat 2027.

The Former Chairman of SouthEast Governors' Forum who served the region between 2015 – 2023 is banking on his goodwill, loyalty and dedication across regions and party divide to make this claim.

The Ubulu born Politician/Achiever in Ohaukwu LGA who was instrumental to the massive infrastructural development of Ebonyi State is positioning himself ahead of bigger battle in 2039 which would definitely come with its own tussle for the APC Presidential ticket for SouthEast and possibly SouthSouth aspirants.

He should focused more on his current job. Many federal roads across the country are begging for attention.

Fixing our roads and making them motorable should be his ambition for now.
2039 is still a very long time. Who knows if his cement concrete roads can even last till 2039?

I'm Igbo but I'll personally campaign against you with everything in me. Fuulish thing.

After 8 years as Governor, Ebonyi state still has the highest number of out of school children in the South East.

Human capital development is so low.....😡

This was how Emmanuel Iwuanyawu was feeling in the 90' when he was in NRC and castigated his people for the benefit of the northern politicians.

Later he was given a BLOODY NOSE by the same people he believed trusted him.

Like I will always say, in politics people don't trust you with power because you are a BOOT LICKER and betrayal of your people....


People give you power because of the respect you command among your friends and foes.

Most South East politicians are very Dull in Nigerian politics

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

He will be defeated by Bianca at the Apc primaries so that Nigeria can have the world’s most beautiful president. If we get any foreign president trying to toast our president….

They were yabbing our beauty during emilokan, but they now want to toast.

FULL VIDEO

The Federal Government's information managers, led by the Minister of Information, were on a tour of Federal Government projects in the South-East when he made the statement.

He said that all South-East governors support Bola Tinubu's second term. He also said that he heard somebody running his mouth and the person said that the only region that support is intact is the south-east and the person was referring to Peter Obi. He said that when the presidency comes to the South-East, he has a better chance of getting it than Peter Obi.

They’ll remind you how your brothers started a civil war and why an Igbo man cannot be trusted with the presidency.

He is truthful to himself.


Tinubu till 2031.

Tinubu hands over to one of his boys from the North for 2031 to 2039.

2039 is the turn of the South again. If Igbos take their book and pen and learn from the Masters that Politics is lobbying, bridge building and alliance and not confrontation, then they may get it in 2039. If they don't learn and continue their Nzobu Nzobu, I no go gree Politics, then we the Sophisticated West will grab it again, snatch it, and run away with it one more time

Let umahi try it.

The "Igbo" will use him to show other tribes how to treat an unworthy brothers when they work for the "enemy" against the interests of the entire south east.
