I think Igbo politic elites are deliberately manipulating the mind of their people and the few ones who wanna be liberal or say the truth are termed TRAITOR or betrayals! Igbos have every right to lay claim to any position as long as they are still in Nigeria, but there approach to national issue has erned them many enemies than friends, even the south south they always eush to tag along are wiser politically! Unfortunately TINUBU who can plead for them is now seen as an enemy for no reason! The same man that made an Igbo man a commissioner for many years,the same man that allow an Igbo man fill a federal slot allocated to Lagos state! Rather than appreciate the man wisdom and political maturity, the Igbos were chanting war songs and telling everyone that Lagos belong to no region! Like seriously? You prefer a voiceless and worthless FFK ,FAYOSE,RENO and other twitter Lions to those who are really running the affairs of the nation! It's sad what the Igbo nation has been reduced to! And hey spare me the BIAFRA madness, its been politicized and lack merit international! I pray my Igbo brothers stop sentimental and politic of HATE

Please sir, who is the Igbo man that represented Lagos at the federal level?

Nyamiri:
Then why are Igbos crying that an Igbo man has never become President?

Then why were Igbos following GEJ like flies despite the fact that he didn't do anything in Igboland?

Mind you, there is no state in the entire SE that is as developed as Kano. No SE state is developed enough to compare.

Travel wide and you'll see that the SE has not gotten a fair deal of 20 years of slavery to PDP.

I will argue with someone intelligent not a tribalist, go and bait someone else.

The South East APC Youth Consultatie Forum, does not in any way represent the South East. They are just a group of APC Youths.

South East does not need any Speaker seat.

South East is a capitalist region. People should understand that they don't need political seats to ball. They operate different businesses and don't wait for one politician to win a seat before they eat, just like the northerners and south westerners do.

In the South East, it is every man working hard for himself. There is no jagaban, or an Alhaji who sways the will and decisions of the people just because he gives them food

I repeat, South East don't need any political seat to survive.

I laugh at people here saying nothing for them, as if their lives depend on speakerhip.

No reasonable south Easterner would make any political demand, except those whose since has been negatively affected by the APC.

Remember this. South East don't care about your political seats. They want out.

Bolustical:
Igbos have said it many times that:

1) They are not interested in any position in Nigeria, all they want is restructuring.

2)They don't want anything to do with the evil APC party and the dictator Buhari.

3) Northerners who have produced the most Presidents over the years are the poorest and are the ones dragging Nigerians back.

4) Yorubas participating in this government are slaves.

5) PDP is SE and SE is PDP.


Going by the aforementioned, Igbos don't deserve any political position in Nigeria except the 5 ministerial slots the 1999 Constitution guarantees

You and your kinsman StOla are the pained and troubled ones here. As usual, news and the mention of Igbo have got the two of you very aroused.

The thread says South East APC. South East APC members are not the voice of Igbos. Stop generalising.
These are groups of people looking to enhance their political portfolios and pockets.
Leave Igbos out of these and focus on the thread title and content. Stop accusing Igbos of ‘politics of bitterness’. You are all guilty of that as well.

Political violences were witnessed during the election. It was so or die in many places. Areas known to be a stronghold of Igbos were invaded and people were constantly and persistently harassed. Most of these happened outside the South East regions.

Igbos want equitable distribution of resources. Igbos ask for justice and fairness. Igbos demand security for all irrespective of ethnicity, gender, economic statuses etc.

Take the presidency, vp, senate presidency and it’s deputy. Let there be peace.

Be reminded that the thread said South East apc. Do not mistake that to be the voice of Igbos. They are serving their own interests.

Nyamiri:
See this one.

A dog from the north would he considered for Speakership position before they consider your region.

Go and meet PDP. You political beggars won't get anything cos you are ingrates. We would give SS.

The lack of home training by igbos is what is causing problems for Igbos everywhere in the world today. Contentment, gratitude, respect, integrity, togetherness and honesty are lacking in Igbo families. Hence, Igbos lack proper socialisation skills and have problems with people everywhere.

A dog in Igbo land will remain healthier than an average person from your desert. And fck you for calling the Igbos ingrates. Heck, imagine an impoverished cowjockey, drinking from the sewage too wants to come at the Igbos.

Igbos don't owe your dumbass nothing. Cos of Nigeria, a stark illiterate desert dwelling pauper can speak of the Igbos in the most impolite manner. Man, I feel like putting in a gat in your putrid mouth.

The word HATE has been etched on your forehead and heart. The space it occupies in your soul interferes with your ability to see the light and express the truth.

Who was the Igbo man that Tinubu ‘allowed’ to represent Lagos? Was the said individual appointed and sent by Tinubu to represent Lagos or was he a by product an electoral process made possible by those who encouraged and supported him?

My problem with people like you is not just your irritating sycophancy but your inability to stand up for yourself and reason.

In a sane, transparent and healthy environment, people will come out and vie for post because they want to serve and make a difference but where people are blind, stupid and backward, they will always see political positions as the only means to survive. The people that you criticise and show no love for can thrive whatever the elements throws at them. Supporting a man who plays dirty politics as means to either cage or display of vindictiveness is very unhealthy.

For the record, Igbos want fairness and justice, security and good governance. Complaints only arise where and when injustice, insecurity, harassment and misplaced acts of revenge manifests. Stop supporting evil.

In 1993 when MKO Abiola was the most popular and trusted candidate for the presidential election, did he win any state in the east? You guys voted for bashir Tofa! But if it was the other way round you'll tell your grand children how yorubas are betrayals and some cock n bull stories! Did u hear Yoruba talking about this? You guys are infant politically take it or leave it t

khalhokage:
You are not an Igbo man, and it always surprises me when people like you say Igbos don't know how to play politics, because what you call political astuteness is anywhere bele face politics, no integrity, no principles just follow whoever can give one of tribesmen a political appointment.
It's sad because in the end whether an Igbo man gets the appointment or not we'll still all suffer from terrible leadership, the north and west that have always produced the bulk of our leaders are not any better developmentally or economically than the east, so what's the point the point of your tribesman being in Aso rock if he's only going to steal and fill his pocket like they always do?

Nyamiri dodon kodi.

You better face your erosion ravaged region and stay out of politics.

Done? Igbos are born with HATRED! Even within your region ! Its hard for Anambra to marry from Imo, the Abakaliki people are hated by u guys fie no just reason ! The elected Imo state governor is already facing problem and HATRED becuade he's an MBAISE man! You can keep deceivubg yourselves! Nobody take you guys serious anymore :Dtt ;Dtt

The SE wants to produce the house of Reps Speaker under an APC government when the APC doesn't have a single Governor in the SE?

Honestly, the politics of stupidity and foolishness we Igbos have been playing isn't doing us any good.

We don't like saying the truth to ourselves but Igbos bleeped up. Laying all our hope in PDP with nothing to show for it.

This political blindness of Igbos has put the SE in Political wilderness. To produce ordinary Speaker has become a future impossible tense.

Lolz... sometimes I ask God why did he punnish me by putting me in SE

Igbo play politics blindly

My country men are just STUPID

All these mumu zoning arrangement
How does it benefit YOU?
It does NOT

Instead of us to ask for good governance, we want positions zoned to regions that political criminals will use for their ends, while people still suffer

To me Buhari can do whatever or the party zone whoever

it makes no difference, and it will not benefit me in anyways

it's the criminal elite playing with the mibds of stupid followers.

And to think that some even insult their countrymen because of trivial issues like these is just
God please restore sense in that useless country

for your last paragraph

It's sane Nigerians who want that from across the country

It's the foolish Igbos, Yoruba and Aboki that argue and do things out of blindness and bitterness


Good governance is what WE want
And some of these Igbos should QUIT this rubbish

position or no position, life continues, it is our criminal political elite who would benefit any ways, not the common man

u get sense so don't de have Rankin members from south east...wat has governor got to do with nass matters...ina de craze ooo

These men know business but not the art of politics..they refused to support those who know the game among them tagged them blacksheep but the truth is those ones have learnt from history that you need to blend with others in order to get what you want..They have boxed themselves again for another 4 years due to their parochial political mindset .PDP was there for 16 years and IBO's have nothing to show for it,even though their sons are daughters were in high places . Tell me what type of mentality is this ?

ajon1:
Please sir, who is the Igbo man that represented Lagos at the federal level?

Tony Nwulu of Imo state

StOla:
SouthEast APC has every right to demand for a prime role in the national assembly, either as Senate President or Speaker of the house, so long as they have ranking members as already identified.

What I have a hard time rationalizing is if the people of that region who claim they are happy that the demonic APC has been kicked out (now a proven fallacy) of the SouthEast, will appreciate such concessions being made to their region by the same demonic APC?

Again, when the same region that argues that the SouthWest that supplied over 80% of its own available Senate and Representative seats to the APC is not loyal enough for daring to be politically sophisticated in also accommodating the opposition PDP and so will be punished by the North (whom the SouthEast have now accepted that region's superiority and lordship over them), as opposed to their own unparalleled political bigotry where only 1 or 2 manage to win seats under the party that the people consider demonic, where then is the merit of such insignificant loyalty to demand for prime positions in the government dominated by the demonic party?

I fear that the SouthEast has unnecessarily demonized APC, for such critical positions to be given to those who have laboured less for it, and who will never ever ever appreciate it. In fact, we would later be told that we begged them to accept the offer, and they took pity on us. Gloating and arrogant boasts is the core DNA of the Igboman.

I do not necessarily desire the SouthWest to hold such position after already laying claim to the Vice-Presidency. I would rather the SouthSouth have it, to better the party's chances in that region that does not practice the mortal bitterness the SouthEast has become notorious for.

There are many ranking house members from the SouthSouth who can play such role. But I know that the SouthEast, in its desire to have a compulsory company for its misery will try to frustrate that attempt to defeat its current agenda of "We SE and SS are hated by APC"

If you have deliberately courted hatred around the country, leave the SouthSouth out of the miserable state you have found yourself and face your consequences alone.

But I will not count it out that on this very thread, a SouthEasterner will appear and begin to mention SouthEast/SouthSouth as if they are bitter that the other South got their administrative independence without having to be tied to the East. It is so bad that many do not even realise that parts of the SouthSouth like Edo, Delta and parts of Bayelsa were once part of the Western region, who have since learnt how to let go and accept the independence and statehood of its former constituents, unlike the East who still criticize the existence of a SouthSouth that is not under their own control.

. My guy, you were making sense until you derailed your write up with your normal Igbos this and that rantings, for your information, we have full blooded Igbos in the south south, eg, rivers, Delta and parts of Edo, and all Igbos have the same traits, back to the topic, majority of Igbos don't expect any position or entitlement from apc, because we didn't vote for the party, those making demands are possibly apc supporters, apologists or political jobbers whose aim is to get something for themselves alone, the average Igbo man in Aba or Onitcha doesn't give a hoot who becomes what in an apc government.

Well within their right.
Who cares if the region didn't vote the APC.

What you do not understand is that the position is not going to be given to the south east PDP,it is to the minority who risked their lives,worked hard for APC in the zone,tried to sell APC against all odds and above all,stopped PDP from inflating votes in that region. If they didnt work hard and allowed PDP to return between 1.2m and 1.5m votes each in the south east zones,maybe Buhari would not have been declared winner. To an average southeasterner,it serves them right if APC does not reward them for working against the popular candidate and party in SE.

StOla:
It is good we remind them.

They have celebrated the chasing of APC out of Igboland.

The tragic irony of the Igbos in politics is that they have supported PDP with over 98% votes, which no other region has ever done in Nigeria, yet when it is time to reap the rewards by being the most eligible for PDP's Presidential ticket in 2023, they are determined to punish the SouthWest by rather serving under a Northerner, because they do not want to bear the shame of losing a presidential election to the Yorubas, even if Alex Ekueme has already borne the shame of twice losing the PDP primary to a Yoruba Obasanjo.

Out of hatred, they have now supported Saraki, Atiku, Tambuwal and Kwankwaso that they have previously hated too.

I know that out of hatred, they will one day support "HellRufai" the short devil as they call him.

I really pity their lack of direction in politics.

Igbos may not be politically sophisticated but they're very intelligent. As daring as they have always been, they've made their move waiting for APC to make theirs.

APC has and will always be seen as a demonic party, if APC gives the house leadership to the Igbos, APC would have shut their mouth and prove them wrong - a win win for both parties involved.

If the APC rejects giving the leadership to the Igbos. They have proved the Igbos right and truly those Igbos in APC that actually worked hard will be ashamed of themselves and also be called traitors by Igbos in so doing Igbos will be justified and vindicated that APC is anti Igbo and demonic. both parties win. We know politics has never been our strong suit, we have achieved so much without being at the leadership for so long.

See all this your epistle is to justify why the "few" who took the "risk" against the norm in the SE should be denied what they deserve as a punishment to those who they opposed. I am not a proponent of whatever zoning formula APC adopts but it's akin to the already established deceptive tendency of your kind to use the "few" in the SE to achieve you aim and turn around to deny them in moments like this. Are you saying because I did not support your party, my brother who did should be denied his due as a punishment to me?

You have ended up justifying my stance of not supporting you because you can't be trusted, he that is faithful in little will be faithful in much.

South-West gave 60% of its votes to APC and 40% to PDP. That is part of what makes us the most sophisticated region. Neither party can deny us. South-East and South-South gave 85% of their votes to PDP. Therefore, it will be contrary to natural justice and equity to leave South-West and give the Speakership position to either South-East or South-South. You cannot work in GTBank and go to UBA at month end to ask for salary. Likewise you cannot give all your votes to the Cameroonian bisexual and come and ask the Katsina Fulani for positions just as you should not expert any infrastructure in your regions until after four years.
