...but it is fact...Forget about Femi. Buhari will repeat such even today. He can never leave out his Fulani people from other countries to an Igbo man...Not a chance...
It's almost impossible not to believe what we want to believe.

This is the height of it. Sometimes I wonder why he has such mindset when it comes to the SE.
And he was just wasting his and an Igboman's time when he once took
Dr. Chuba Wilberforce Okadigbo as his running mate.

I have thought, long and hard on this issue, but, I can't find any logical reason for their dislike, which borders on hate.
I have looked high and low, there just isn't anything, or even a series of things, that I can point out and say, “that's why”.
As an Igbo man, there are several reason why I hate Buhari. Let me give you a few.

1)Things have got worse since Buhari came to power

2) The 97%/5% statement Buhari made

3) Buhari has always been part of the Northern oligarchy that only cares about Northern domination of Nigeria. He was part of that clique since 1966 when he was involved in the counter coup and almost all other coups that followed.

4) I dont think Buhari is qualified to be president. Not just because of his doubful certificate but also because of his temperment and archaic reasoning.

5) Another reason I hate Buhari is his stance against true federalism/Regionalism. Igbos want their region where they will have greater control of their political and economic resources. Buhari is against that because he knows that true federalism will end Northern domination of Nigeria

6) Generally, I dont think Buhari is a nice man at heart.

.Most Igbos don't like Buhari because Goodluck Jonathan’s message to them was well digested but wasn’t enough to re-elect him. If Jonathan is any hero it will be a beer and also After looking at things from a wider perspective, I believe one of the factors is that Igbos erroneously latches on to the lie that Goodluck Jonathan is an Igbo man, with his adoption of Igbo names: Ebele and Azikiwe. He played Igbos so hard that many may not realise this in their lifetime… Another factor, which I'm still trying to believe is not true, is the Bafarawa factor… Recall that Bafarawa admitted collecting 4.6 billion Naira for 'spiritual' purposes, which I suspect was used to bewitched Igbos to love Jonathan no matter what… Sadly for them, it started working after the elections, when it was not really needed anymore…

Anything from the north n even west, we hate it with passion.
Buharis case is way worse, just make a deep research.
I don't have time to explain them.
Check out the killings of the igbos back then.
Check out the betrayal from afonjas.

This has got nothing to do with GEJ. The coming of Buhari has shown everyone that Igbos were right to have backed GEJ. Everything has crumbled since Buhari came. GEJ was not perfect, he never claimed to be. But one thing is sure, GEJ was a much better president than Buhari can ever be

There's nothing one can do about that. Some people are naturally born to complain. Can you point to me a single day that will see them not complaining. If you know the psychology behind their actions, you'll not worry yourself about what they're good at. They just don't wail, they are Wailing Wailers.
Afonja you always prove to be your fulani slave.

This is ridiculous.

Are you insinuating that Ndiigbo don't know the lands and boundaries of Igbo speaking people in Nigeria, as to mistake an Ogbia man from Bayelsa state for Igbo?

Under Buhari:
1. SE has the lowest government positions.
2. SE has the lowest capital projects.
3. SE has the lowest road projects even when it has the worst roads in the federation.

4. Igbos are killed while protesting peacefully while Fulanis are compensated with money for killing people.
5. SE was called 5% and it was made clear there will be punished for not supporting APC even when there is freedom of choice.
Should I continue...

You should ask Buhari why he hates the SE.
SE also had the least capital projects and least road projects under GEJ, so this isn't necessarily a valid reason. On the other hand, while No 1, 4 and 5 are valid reasons, the strange truth is that the hate the SE has for Buhari stretches back to just before the 2015 elections when No. 1, 4 and 5 were still non-existent.

Without mincing any words, the biggest and most fundamental reason why the SE hates Buhari is because of the love and allegiance to Jonathan. Every other reason given is just a conjured justification/excuse; unfortunately, Buhari by his actions and inactions has been lending credence to these excuses.

New year, yet your old lying habits persists.

SE rejected Buhari in 2003 and 2007,even when he paraded Igbo Vp just like we rejected Awolowo in 1979 even when he too paraded Igbo VP.
Of course, we also rejected Buhari in 2011, 2015, and will still reject him come 2023.

The reason is simple, Buhari is an Igbophobic entity, and it's not a co incidence that all lovers of Buhari are inherently Igbophobic, birds of same feathers flock together.

Buhari had demonstrated his Igbophobia many times in the past and continue to do so presently.
Buhari was part and parcel of the Northern counter coup junta that killed many Igbos.
He rejected an Igbo candidate in favour of a Fulani Man from Niger for the post of Sec general of OAU

Buhari out of hatred for Igbo decided to jail Ojukwu in the 1984, because he knew what Ojukwu represented to the Igbo. It was paramount that he disgraced Ojukwu, to please his Igbophobic Nigerian supporters.
https://www.nairaland.com/2084360/why-did-buhari-arrest-ojukwu/1

Buhari currently holds in prison an Igbo freedom fighter, who is loved by millions of Igbos, without any real concrete evidence against him.

Buhari had made it open that he considers Igbos 5% and would marginalize us to statisfy his Igbophobic Arewa-Oduanistan sychophants.

Or maybe, it's because there are no free petro dollars to mask Buhari's incompetence like it masked those of incompetent Nigerian leaders before him.

Buhari is forced to think outside the box to provide solutions to Nigeria problems, as there are no more petrodollars windfalls to
throw at those problems, hence Buhari and his team are being exposed.

Re: Why Do Most Igbos Passionately Dislike Buhari? by PHIPEX(m): 5:26pm On Jan 02, 2017
I don't think Igbos hate Buhari, they only don't want to relate with him because he is considered a threat to Igbos existence. His Fulani centric approach to issues betrays him too. He has times and again shown his dislike for Igbos wellbeing.

The fact that every Northern leader Nigeria ever had got massive support from the East shows there is something wrong with Buhari. Even Gowon that fought the war is loved but not Buhari.

Stop talking out of point, nobody hates anybody and as long as Nigeria remains, people must be free to move and live anywhere. Chinese and Europeans don't come here cos they love us but to conquer opportunities it's noţ cos Nigeria is better than their countries.
