Future Impossible Tense

How would people who don't believe in Nigeria any longer want to be its President?

mikolo80:
Let!!!
Are you serious?
So that he can full d civil service with only his brothers and sisters and enslave the rest of Nigeria.
Never
The Ibo man must first learn to use common sense when playing politics

Progressive01:
Nonsense. Since when did we start "letting" people become president?? We "elect" them.

Let whoever from wherever feel free to throw their hat in the ring if feel popular enough to win the contest.

As for me, I would vote a Ken Nnamani if he's contesting only if Buhari or Ribadu isn't. I already know Fashola has no such ambition, at least not in 2019.

Godemcee:
Nobody is stoping igbo's from being a president,if igbo field a presidential candidate come 2019,if he his capable I wud vote for him ahead of a northerner am not tribalistic.igbo's just need to get mature nd stop being emotional,they shud stop feeling everybody in nigeria owes them.they should stop hating all other tribe in nigeria,hate can't take them nowhere,they shoild learn to work with other major tribe in nigeria either yoruba or hausa nd stop being hateful

DropShot:

OP, this post says it all.

If not for hate and victim mentality plus lack of unified position of the Igbo race, they would have produced the president in 2015.

Had Igbo decided to abandon PDP in 2007 when PDP/OBJ pushed forward Yar'Adua/GEJ and support Buhari/Ezeoke, it will have been easy for PMB to pass the baton to an Igbo president in 2015.

But because of hatred for anything Buhari and ANPP then, the Igbo race shot itself on the foot.

gartamanta:
We Igbos are not interested in the 'poisonous' office of president of Nigeria. There are other things that are important than that

DropShot:

You know deep down your heart you're Not sincere.

Sinkills:
I actually knew that some people seriously dislike the idea of an Igbo man becoming president. One, there is this suspicion of the person demonstrating nepotism by favouring people from his tribe if voted in. Though this is not right if it happens, I don't think nepotism can be worse than it is now and I think people are getting wiser now. Secondly, Igbos do not need to unite to support their kin before he can be elected president.That would even make him to feel he needs to repay them and thus use the famous formula of 97% versus 5%. Apart from that, it is on record that president Obasanjo was not the candidate of the Yorubas. It was Olu False that was their preferred choice. However, the rest of Nigeria voted for Obasanjo while his Yoruba people overwhelmingly rejected him at the polls. Contrary to popular views, it is not all Igbos that demonstate hatred for other tribes. There are Igbos who are nationalistic in outlook. Examples include Dr Ogbonnaya Onu, Dr Ken Nnamani, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, Ben Igbokwe, Dr Chris Ngige, Orji Uzo Kalu, Rev. Father Ejike Mbaka, Ike Nwachukwu etc. We can pick from among these. Thank you.

What will the presidency do for Igbos? Has the presidency done anything special for those who held it in the past? So an Igbo man becomes president then what? Stars will drop out of the Sky? There things that are more important

DropShot:

How and why it's so difficult for the Igbo race to apply tact and wisdome to politics is absurd.

funlord:



O.p is it the President of biafra or where?

QuotaSystem:


Politics requires give and take, particularly stooping to conquer. Stooping is what appears impossible to Ibos due to misplaced and baseless arrogance. This is essentially why they find it extremely difficult to build bridges with other regions or strike alliances.

If you understand the nature of the average ibo, you will understand why they're so horrible at politicking.

sultaan:
Only Nigerians can be voted into the office of the president of the federal republic of Nigeria by Nigerians.

As long as NIgerians voted, only a NIgeria will become president.

Hope you understand what that statement clearly mean
.

limeta:
They don,t want president of zoogeria
They want to be free
Make hausa/yoruba president .
