In preparation for the 2027 general election, President Bola Tinubu is amplifying his efforts to secure votes from the South-East in order to obtain a second term in office, leveraging the Onitsha-Aba and other road projects as a form of exchange.

The President has also communicated to the region that the dualization of the Owerri-Aba and Enugu-Abakaliki roads, along with the contracts for the Calabar-Ebonyi-Benue-Nassarawa-Abuja roads initiated by his administration, serve as evidence that a second term would yield greater benefits of democracy, thereby encouraging substantial support from the region for his re-election campaign.

Tinubu, represented by the Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, reiterated this message during the golden jubilee celebration of the Amaifeke Community’s traditional ruler in the Orlu Local Council Area, His Royal Majesty, Eze E.C Okeke, which took place in Owerri over the weekend.

A statement released by the minister’s Special Adviser on Media, Uchenna Orji, indicated that the President urged the region to reciprocate the inclusivity and economic opportunities provided by his administration by backing his re-election efforts.

The statement emphasized: “The President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Bola Tinubu, has reaffirmed his steadfast dedication to fostering inclusive economic prosperity for all segments of the nation.

In the meantime, the Chidi Ibe faction of the leading socio-cultural organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, stated over the weekend that no Igbo individual will run for the presidency in 2027 against the current President, Tinubu, asserting that the prospect of the South-East producing a Nigerian President can only materialize in 2035, rather than in 2027.

In a statement made in Abakaliki, which was signed by the Deputy President General of the faction, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, along with the national spokesman, Thompson Ohia, it was disclosed that the decision was reached following a significant meeting with South-East political leaders, Imeobi and Nzukoumunna. During this meeting, they agreed that no Igbo individual will run for the Presidency in 2027 against Tinubu, indicating a rejection of the one-term bid proposal.

They asserted that the most viable political avenue for achieving the Igbo presidency lies within the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2035, contingent upon a modification of the zoning formula. They noted that among prominent Igbo figures, the Minister of Works, Umahi, is particularly distinguished.

Additionally, the Arogbo Ijaws announced their support for Tinubu’s re-election in 2027 over the weekend, pledging to mobilize across Ijaw clans and kingdoms throughout the nation.

In expressing their commitment to support High Chief Government Ekpemupolo, commonly referred to as Tompolo, and his door-to-door campaign initiative for Tinubu’s re-election, they commended the President for utilizing Tompolo’s creativity, emphasizing that this strategy has effectively transformed the negative narrative associated with the Niger Delta.

lol a bobo juice. SW SS and SE no send their papa again

Interesting SE will be the decider of 2027. With Northern push and Ariku bent on running.

SE support for Tinubu can weaken Ariku strongly. But if lgbos in SE and beyond supports Atiku Tinubu will struggle bcs north is mobilising strongly for a northner.

Me l will go TINUBU instead of ATIKU for now.

But in all fairness, it makes no sense that whenever a southerner is in power, northerners will be jostling to take the presidency back.

At this point, I don't even give a hoot because Tinubu ganged up with them to kick Jonathan out of office in 2015.

APC has done more for the southeast than the PDP they were in bed with for 16yrs of unfruitful relationship. The kind of relationship PDP had with southeast, is that kind of relationship you will see and be wondering what the lady sees in the man that made her stuck with him all these years.

Which SE? The one his deluded supporters called inconsequential? Perhaps the cold shoulders from the north is dawning on him now. You can say the SE is electorally useless then turn around to court it. Proudly onye dot.

That's the thing. It's hard deciding honestly.

Burob:
worthless votes.

Those worthless votes spoke in Lagos and even in the Rivers that was generally believed to be won by Labour Party.

Am in lgbo. I live in Rivers but l will vote as an lgboman.

Nobody is asking, lobbying or needs your votes. Please direct it where you normally direct it. Don’t think you can crawl back, creating fake stories thinking we will support you in 2039……After Tinubu, we are supporting he SS,

It would be the miracle of the century for Igbos to vote for a Yoruba in a party they hate so much.
Put up a rat in a party they support and you will write a book on how to be perfect zombies.

Enjoy it while it lasts under the Buhari and Buhari destroyed. It is well with all of you

we are talking about the worthless south eastern state votes, adc wins the eastern region, APC will come 2nd, the Pdp wins it, APC will still come 2nd, abi is Lagos State, or The Rivers State in the South East of Nigeria?

Whatever party wins in eastern Nigeria, the APC will be 2nd, or does any political party have more members in the National Assembly from Eastern Nigeria today, than The APC?

Igbos will not be voting for the candidate of the party that instigated the greatest anti Igbo campaign in 2023.

Igbos will definitely not be supporting the party that championed the destruction of Igbo properties in Lagos.

Igbos will not be supporting the party that actively removed.Igbo names.from Lagos streets.

Igbos will jot be voting for the regime that actively worked.to.destroy the educational prospects of Igbo.youths by sabotaging JAMB systems

Impossibly impossicant,

tinubu will get nothing from the south East.

Go and mark it , 2027 is not far away.

Not just the Igbos,every normal human being should stand against a TERRORIST GOVT that has only but completely overwhelmed and destroyed the economy of the Country.

We are business people,in recent years how many Igbos dey vote? Just do well to provide an enabling environment for business and commercial flow. APC is the greatest threat to the survival of SMEs in Nigeria, anyone who likes Apc is dead in zombism. FACT!!

You want to fix federal roads as a form of exchange?

So you are business people,the Hausas who control trades and commerce in Agriculture that sustains your life are not business people,the Yorubas who control the building materials and fuel/petroleum/ICT/Fashion/Entertainment and a whole lot of sectors are not business people,abi?
Continue your ranting as Nigeria improves daily after going through the pains of the removal of subsidies.
Just yesterday,a Derica of garri was sold for #300 and beans #900.They were up in the sky before after the removal.This shows that things are still going to come down more and more.
We give thanks to the Merciful.

In preparation for the 2027 general election, President Bola Tinubu is amplifying his efforts to secure votes from the South-East.......

Another enticement is the Bilateral Air Services Agreement with Brazil for Air Peace to commence direct flights to Brazil.

If at this point the southeast did not still realise they are inconsequential in the scheme of things as far as politics is concerned in Nigeria, then they are the designated minority pawns others must used to succeed.
