Ouch! Oyin! your name sounds good to the ears but your heart and thinking is wicked and tribalistic. You are gloating and happy about what a national leader/executive of a ruling national party have said about one of the three major ethnic groups in Nigeria. You have just insulted an entire race because of politics,... You did't even put into consideration people from same region who voted APC.
I've seen comments on this forum from folks who think that only those who voted PMB are patriotic, and from every indication you belong to this line of thought. I do not want to say much,...
But you guys should keep playing the sort of politics you do, power is transient,. one day the gang up will fail and the shackle will be freed.
SHALOM.

nobody is asking you not to thrive or survive. You cant heap hate on anybody associated with APC simply cos its Buharis party and repect them in tum to hand over the senate presidency. By the way, how many ranking senators(APC) are from the south east.how many of their aspirants didigbos vote in. so its only fair if they zone the seat to another region. Till igbos learn to play politics with maturity and their heads not just on tribal sentiments. and im igbo by the way

By now, I expect you guys to know that Power is not given out like that. The South East doesn't deserve any position because it has marginalized itself. It's a self inflicted injury.

Kalu was only bragging. He's the only one Igbos could boost of as APC Senator and he's a first timer. There's nothing the Party can do to help the South East. It's about number.

Kalu should be grateful if he's given Deputy Senate Whip.

Dep Senate President will go to Sen Omo Agege from South South. Mark my words, while Gbajabiamila will be Speaker.

oilPUSSY:
To APC, what they mean by Politics of one basket is that they are indirectly telling you that they are against democracy.. Meaning that there should be no opposition in Nigerian politics . Everybody must vote and follow APC in order to be seen as people that are politically matured.. Lolz.
I can remember in 2015 when Adesina came out and said that the reason APC didn't zone the SP to SE is because there was no ranking senator from SE even from SS.
Chris Ngige came to Awka and started insulting people of Anambra Central why they didn't vote for him, that if they had voted for him again like they did in 2011 hé would have become the Senate President.
Ngige said all sorts of unprintable things I can't type here all because of politics.
Fast forward to 2019 , SE has 2 APC ranking Senators (One Ebonyi man and Orji Uzo Kalu from Abia state .. Yes Kalu could be seen as ranking Senator because he has spent time in House of Reps before ..Both chambers are called NASS)

Now, the same APC is giving another reason why SE should not be given the SP because they didn't vote for Buhari.. Like seriously ?
PDP zoned the the position of the speaker of Reps to SW in 2011 despite not being the stronghold of the party. (Though Tinibu had to sabotage it and willingly gave it to Tabuwai with his conspirators in order to justify his marginalisation wailing and his hatred for Jonathan ) What happened that day is still still fresh on our minds.

In as much as many Nigerians including those on nairaland won't be benefiting or will benefit from this NASS leadership brouhaha, but at least it's good to do something that is right for prosterity sake.. Internet never forgets. Most of all these activities will turn back and hunt those that orchestrated it. May all of us be alive to witness such.

Meanwhile, APC should not be confident about NASS leadership victory come June 2019.

Igbodefender, Abagworo and other APC Igbo clowns on this forum should hide their face in the sand.

OilPUSSY don talk finish !

Some of these APC members are very horrible.

You seem to have a problem with comprehension.

There's nowhere the post talked about APC not wanting any opposition.

The point is simple, how can a region be voting one party during presidential elections for 20 years and has nothing to show for it, yet they keep voting the same party?

It's about doing a stock check on the gains or losses of the region's political choices.

Mind you, I am from the SE too.

When supposed adults talk like children, it shows how low we have fallen as a nation. Such a petty remark. OUK didn't say he wants to be Senate President, he only asked for fairness in the sharing formula.
You don't expect everyone to vote for you in an election which is just a mere process of electing leaders. Once you are elected, you put all differences aside and work for the good of all. Doing so, you will even win the hearts of those who didn't vote for you the last time and they can vote for you this time around.
All this 95% and 5% is so childish and irritating, especially coming from supposed leaders.

Oga, this has nothing to do with unity.

You don't abandon people who supported you in the name of unity. How do you go back to them to solicit votes in the next four years?

The unity part is in ministerial appointments as governed by federal character.

It is their choice. But they should know that the Igbo man will always thrive no matter the condition.

Sideline us, incapacitate us, come for our heads, we'll still find a way to survive, as far as the sun rises; our sons and daughters will be informed of the acts of this government, for reference purposes.

Read my comment again and again, this time around very slowly especially the paragraph that emphasised on PDP zoning their speakership to SW for unity and equity despite low contribution to the party in 2011 and also the the issue of APC not having any APC ranking senators in 2015.
After reading the aforementioned part I stated on the FP and you are still spamming my mentions with your bull crap, then psychiatric hospital becomes an inevitable home for you to settle.

Apart from the fact that he's the only Senator from the South East, he's also a first timer.

A Dep first timer cannot preside in the absence of the Senate President.

Igbos Have Themselves To Blame For Voting Atiku - APC

The ruling APC said it does not deserve any blame for not zoning the position of Senate President or Deputy Senate President to the South-East.

Rather it said the South-East should blame itself for queuing behind Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the PDP in the just concluded general elections.

The party was reacting to the outburst of Orji Uzor Kalu, who said that unless the APC makes him the Deputy Senate President of the 9th Senate, he will fight to become the Senate President.

Yekini Nabena, Deputy National Publicity Secretary of APC, in a chat with Daily Independent said while nobody is stopping Kalu from contesting for the position of Senate President, the reality is that he cannot win since the zoning arrangement didn’t favour him.

According to him, rather than getting angry with APC leadership, Kalu should blame his people in the South-East for putting all their eggs in one basket by rejecting President Muhammadu Buhari and casting over 90 percent of their votes for Atiku.

“That shouldn’t be a problem. He can contest for the position of Senate President. But the issue is, can he win? Nobody is stopping him from contesting. Igbo people always play themselves out. So, Kalu cannot blame APC.

“He should blame his own people from the South-East. He should blame them because they don’t know how to play politics. They play politics like a one-way thing. They all voted for Atiku in the presidential election. So, now that Atiku lost, who will help people like Orji Kalu? 99.9 percent of them followed Atiku.

“So, what is Kalu crying for? He should go back to his people and educate them on how politics is played especially at the national level. They should play 50-50. If this one didn’t work, the other can work.

“So, Orji Uzor Kalu must go back to his people and educate them because he himself is not worthy to be Senate President or Deputy Senate President. So, if he wants to contest, he can do so. Nobody is stopping him. But I know that he cannot win”, he said.

Court In Nigeria Orders the Re-arrest of Nnamdi Kanu
The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has on Thursday, March 28th, ordered the re-arrest of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) identified as Nnamdi Kanu.

The court presided over by a judge identified as Binta Nyako gave the order on Thursday, March 28th, after revoking the bail granted to the IPOB leader in the year 2017.

In addition, the court made it clear that it has given the order because Nnamdi Kanu had failed to appear in court after his bail was granted in April of 2017.

Furthermore, the court also ruled that the trial must continue and directed that a fresh date for the continuation should be given by parties so that the matter will continue in Mr Kanu’s absence.
