Igbos Are Only Blackmailing Nigeria To Give Them Presidency – Arewa Chieftain by ridbay(op): 2:56pm On Jul 09, 2017

A chieftain of Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF), Mohammed Abdulrahman, has said restructuring should be considered, as long as it doesn’t affect Nigeria’s sovereignty or unity.

He said this in an interview with Punch on Sunday, adding that, “no matter our differences, we have become united in our diversity. It is only natural for issues of disagreement to come up from time to time.”

He said those calling for Nigeria’s break up like Nnamdi Kanu, are being sponsored by “irresponsible political elite, who do not understand the realities of our times.”

“What I see that Nnamdi Kanu and his Igbo ilk are doing is to blackmail Nigeria into submitting the presidency to them. The question I will ask them is: Can you have this presidency by blackmail?” He adds.

On where the Middle Belt will go, in case Nigeria breaks up, he said, “I’ll say Jerry Gana is a bigot. He is not a nationalist. I think he’s only a stooge for some big men in Nigeria who are self-serving. Gana can’t say he’s speaking for the Middle Belt. He is on his own. For a certainty, I can tell you that the Middle Belt will stick with the North.”

OK

I know for a fact that this is a lie. The average man on the streets of the south east are not interested in the presidency of Nigeria. They want out.

But then again, one won't easily forget how the yoruba race cried for so long using nadeco and others to the extent that by the time we returned to democracy in 1999 the whole nation and even the military felt they should be given that chance which saw the two main parties then produce their presidential candidates from the yoruba race. While PDP fielded Olusegun Obasanjo, APP/AD alliance fielded Olu Falae.
So if the political elite capitalizes on the biafra agitation to push for a presidency of south east, it won't be the first time.

And how can an arewa man like this bigot call Jerry Gana a bigot for saying that the middle belt will not go with the core north. He even ended by speaking boldly that the middle belt will go with them if Nigeria splits. In other words Jerry Gana who is from the middle belt is not qualified to speak the mind of middle belt but he,an arewa man is. This man must be a full blooded bigot himself and such person should not be taken serious

Why do Arewa think Presidency could stop the people's determination for freedom to live as decent free citizens?
In the past,Igbo Presidency could have resolved the issue of marginalization, but today, it is waaay too late.

We don't want Nigerian presidency we want our freedom to rule ourselves and manage our own affairs. We are not interested in ruling Fulanis nor oppressing them they way they did to us.

Igbos and other Biafrans are determined to be free from internal colonization and slavery and it will happen soon.

Although Biafrans have asked for a peaceful referendum as every decent people, Fulanis have promised war in place of referendum for Biafrans. By the way, Arewa can bring the war on if they think all those youths they see aren't prepared to fight them. The duty of IPOB worldwide is to continue aggressive fund raising to make sure they provide them the means should it become necessary. They already know, it will probably be needed.

The particular region that have held the presidency for decade.. What do they have to show for it... Jerry gana cannot speak for his own middle belt... Its an arewa chieftain that has the license to speak for them.. Maybe as an arewa conquered region... These guys are still living in stone ages.. Its either we restructure or we balkanize this contraption... Something just has to give..

instead of u to tackle the topic straight forwardly, you streched your little hand to cojoin the yorubas to ur writeup.
this is the same way igbos have been hiding under the phony pretence of "we dnt need a presidential slot". What begat the cry of marginalization and biafra agitation is simply because of the political backwardness and injustice given to igbos. #truthbetold

Some people think everything is about Presidency
Re: Igbos Are Only Blackmailing Nigeria To Give Them Presidency – Arewa Chieftain by Dedetwo(m): 4:34pm On Jul 09, 2017
The presidency of the cesspit called Nigeria is practically worthless but for looting of the public funds. Arewa you can shove the presidency of the Niger-Area into your filthy behind. Bunch of bloody maggots.
