₦airaland Forum

From Magnus Eze, Enugu

Chairman of South East Governors’ Forum and Governor of Ebonyi State, Chief David Umahi, has said that he is under intense pressure to support President Muhammadu Buhari, candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the February 16 polls.

Chairman, Strategy Committee of Divine Mandate; Umahi’s campaign organisation, Chief Emmanuel Igwe who made the disclosure, yesterday, said all the governor asked of the president is to allow free, fair and credible election in the state.

He said that Umahi, as a mark of respect for the president, had promised to mobilise 2000 PDP members to come out and receive the president during his campaign stopover in Abakaliki, the state capital, this week. His words: “The governor wishes Buhari and his entourage a happy stay as APC Presidential Campaign Council visits Ebonyi on the 30th of January, 2019. Governor Umahi wishes to put it on record that the President, Muhammad Buhari is his personal friend and a friend of the state. He has much respect for the office of the president. The Governor has been under pressure to support the re-election of my president by APC bigwigs especially the party chairman, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, Chibuike Amaechi just to mention but a few who come under various guises that the APC has no interest in Ebonyi guber race.

“The Governor has no need for external forces to win convincingly in Ebonyi since over 95 per cent of the electorate is supporting his re-election. The Governor has been too magnanimous to the APC by donating the sum of five million naira to her guber candidate, Senator Sonni Ogbuoji to enable him print campaign posters and promised to mobilize two thousand people that will welcome Mr President on the proposed campaign rally,” Igwe stated.

Warning that Ebonyi people will resist any form of manipulation or rigging and intimidation with the last drop of their blood; Umahi urged the APC presidential campaign council to make out time and inspect both completed and ongoing projects in the state during their campaign tour.

The trait being exhibited by the Igbo People of Nigeria is Inherent.
Igboman hates to be under someone.
That's why back in the ages, Igbo had no King[s] and had to break their communities into Various Autonomous communities according to their ancestry and were being governed by Council of Elders.
That made the colonial masters to appoint warrant chiefs in Igbo lands to enable them in their Indirect Rule.
That being said, that I have listed above made the Igbo man in the modern Nigeria very uncomfortable to be under the Leadership of a fellow black man.
Yes, the Igbo has high ego, pride that have made the average Igbo man think that he is superior to any other Black African tribe.
The Fulani of Nigeria also exhibit the same trait, hence their constant political clash with the Igbo people of Nigeria.
I was prompted to articulate this write-up cause of the constant feud between most Igbo and Buhari's administration.
As u can see from the first to comment and other commenters here.
Note: A bukwam' nwafor Igbo

I so much respect this man. Sir, don't be like a hunters dog that is deaf to his masters flute

Be wise!

Umahi and sitting on the fence

Did i not say it. I expect Obiano to come out and say something similar.

If Obiano wants to join APC, he should go right ahead and stop being so cowardly about it. Same with Dave Umahi.

weak man


SE biggest problem is sell outs like this

PDP Governor in the day and APC governor at night!!

God how did we get here? Well I'm happy he won cos if he didn't, so many people would have been saying he is the messiah we never had, but it's time to correct that silly mistake.

He is A haedless idiot.
I reserve my case.

Umahi go and sit down you have been supporting him from the beginning.I quote, only retards will vote or support Buhari

God bless Mr president
God bless Nigeria

Only a fool can support a president who can't debate his opponents.

Only a fool can support a president who hardly knows what is happening around him due to ill-health and old age.

Because he has spoken out, Soon buhari will send his dogs (efcc) to investigate him

Why not just join APC instead of this lie?

Government of Blackmail...
Join us and become cleansed or remain an position and be hunted for life

This one is just sitting on the fence to jump into wherever the money at

Yes ooo. It is simply 4+4...

Umahi my guy. Confam your Jersey number jor.

EFCC? Dave Umahi and Willie Obiano should thread carefully.
