What we need is a leader who will unite us by giving every section of Nigeria a sense of belonging and equal partnership." |

kotv: I am very happy to hear that it was sabotaged by Tinubu. I suspect you are not an Ibo. GEJ is a good man but played into the hands of people seeking revenge against Nigeria. It will be a long story if I try to explain what happened. Obj complained about lopsided appointments, Pa Edwin Clark defended GEJ with breakdown of the appointment, yet he made mistake because there were so many things involved. If Tinubu had worked with GEJ, these people would have still frustrated the Yoruba's out of the government because Yoruba will not support their vengeance & looting mission. They have complex problem. They hate the yorubas. That is why there can be no unity in the South. Governor Emmanuel Udom of Akwa Ibom co - hosted Southern Governors meeting in Lagos with Ambode, that night was very tough on nairaland & other social media with Ibos attacking yorubas. The attack was so much that nothing came out of the meeting. I don't know the direction they are going. They demonstrated against our President in foreign lands. When they are being maltreated in South Africa & other places for crimes they will look for other Nigerian tribes to support them. They have become nuisance to an entity called Nigeria. 1 Like |

babaolofin: My brother, you'll have to pardon me if I don't fully tow your line of thought, particularly about the Igbos. But first of all, let me say that you've made a number of fair points, particularly on the considerable support the main opposition received from the SW despite the former's failure to clinch the presidency. I equally agree on the part about the imposition of a tribe's culture/leadership on the people of it's host community. There's nothing wrong in a group electing its own leaders though. That said, I don't think the incident involving the Oba of Lagos involved the Igbos forcefully imposing an Igwe on anyone. Rather the Oba had threatened that everyone, including the Igbos, must vote for Ambode else they'll be forced into the Lagoon. His actions were simply wrong. BTW I still don't understand how GEJ marginalized the Yoruba's, especially when the Yorubas held sensitive posts from security (CDS, DG-NIA, CAS) to the FEC (Agriculture, Trade and Investment) and more |

cbrass: Well, the APC won over the SW (although I admit that the PDP pulled a strong show there). But you have to admit that your region's support for the APC played a role the Buhari's rise to power and the consequent issues that plagued the nation as a whole from a wrecked economy, spike in insecurity, increased corruption, etc, all thanks the incompetency of the Buhari administration. That's what I'm referring to. |

omenka: It's wrong to say he could pass, he is indeed educated and enlightened. Do you not know that this guy is a policy leader on SE socio-political agendas? If there is a gathering of inputs on how to progress SE and Igbo, Nnanna's input will feature. So don't say he could pass for educated and enlightened, such qualifiers are for uneducated but successful spare parts traders whose money speak for them in lieu of enlightenement. There are naturalized Americans who have had their citizenship revoked and lost legal recognition as Americans and deported after the fact, simply for speaking of America and its leadership the way communists would speak of America. In the application for citizenship one is asked to disclose if they ever were a sympathizer of a communist agenda in the past, now or will be in the future. I am sure Nnanna has investments in Yorubaland. I see no reason why he could not be declared a non-entity in Yorubaland. The guy is a member of an agenda circle that sees Yorubas and Yorubaland as enemy. We should treat him as one, period! Evict him and everything he owns from Yorubaland. 1 Like 2 Shares |

e7ejinima: It is impractical in a democratic setting to ignore your kind. We are practicing an American social order. American is multi-racial country, Whites are the mainstream in all spheres of the democracy, they dictate, by default, what other races must do....even on things that are naturally in disharmony with their ethnic nature. Thats as fundamental as it gets! No leader can do those things you wish for in your post. They remain IDEALS....we can wish them day and night, 365days a year, from now till kingdom come....as long we practice democracy, they are impracticable. The most you can get is a partnership. This is why alliance makes sense. But Igbos dont like to ally with other big groups...they call it slaving, but they start shouting that slaves are not including them in affairs of the nation. |

e7ejinima: That was a tribal and political conclusion since the rest of NIGERIA from the SW to the Northern part of Nigeria doesn't have or share such ignorant and tribal conclusions. And when you say or credit the rest of Nigeria with such generalization and ignorant conclusion, you should at least show us the results from the polls you conducted after asking Nigerians from every corner of Nigeria per their feelings about the President. The fact that a section of Nigeria because of tribal and political reasons spew and repeat such sentiments doesn't mean the rest of Nigeria are into such tribe baiting nonsense. 1 Like |

MetaPhysical: No this is a mischaracterization and misformulaation of the issue Ibos LOVE to ally with the Fulani They have ALWAYS done so They did so in 1960 1965 1979 and 1983.. If SLAVING is what it is called then they are MASTERS of it. The problem is they do not know how to handle being in opposition which is the consequence of their 2015 MISCALCULATION Unlike the Yoruba who have always been in opposition. Dare I ask; When EXACTLY did the Yoruba form any such political alliance for electioneering or coalitons afterwards EVER before 2015. The Ibos have always been in alliance with the FULANI but this time they miscalculated and lack the game spirit to be graceful in defeat and then to restrategize 4 Likes 1 Share |

babaolofin: Other than your own paranoia, what implies that? The entire southern groups worked alongside obasanjo, including the Ibos, despite North efforts to sabotage him. So why then will the same Ibos that did work with a Yoruba leader despite he did not do anything for them go and sabotage Yorubas if Tinubu worked alongside GEJ during his administration? Your leaders sabotaged yoruba during GEJ administration then went around blaming everybody else for the so called marginalization. Even at that, Yorubas were not marginalized during GEJ administration, yoruba still held a significant number of position in his administration. The whole marginalization story is nonsense to justify why Yoruba sabotaged the entire southern growth and brought this incompetent leadership currently ruling. We are all suffering this worse administration since history because of Yorubas so stop the whole nonsense of so called ibo looting mission. We are currently in administration where severe looting is going on despite the claims of fighting corruption, the corruption transparency index is growing higher since APC took over yet Yoruba still support this administration all because a Yoruba is vice president so stop the hypocrisy. How does comments from social media impact leadership? Did you really type that? The meeting did not go anywhere because it was not meant to go anywhere. It was just another gathering by leaders pretending to be working. Enough of the hypocrisy from Yoruba. Yorubas have said and done worse to ibos on social media. For Yorubas to constantly pretend your saints in this filth of tribalism that's manifesting is becoming ridiculous. We've all seen it. Compared to ibos, Yorubas have said worse. Was it not a Yoruba oba that threatened to drown Ibos because of their own political choice? A statement that Yorubas on social media applauded. Yorubas equally applauded when ibos were being killed in South Africa and other countries. We've all seen Yorubas reaction on social media when ibos are killed yet you expect sympathy from them. Enough of the hypocrisy. Neither Yorubas or ibos are saint in this cesspit of tribalism. I don't see ibos as nuisance. That is yours and maybe Yorubas opinion, not the rest of us. 1 Like |

kotv: There's a clear difference between legislative leadership positions and executive appointments. The example you gave was about leadership events in the legislature, not GEJ administration appointments. GEJ's administration was loaded with folks from the SE and he openly asserted in front of Nigerians that a section of Nigeria/the SE was his pillars of support. GEJ did not hide it, so stop making irrelevant excuses on his behalf. 2 Likes |
