NASS leadership: Stop Igbo Marginalisation, Youth Parliament Urges APC/Presidency

The Igbo Youth Parliament has frowned at events and utterances surrounding the election of principal officers of the incoming ninth National Assembly.

The Group particularly criticized the winner-takes-all mentality of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), saying the 95/5% rule must stop forthwith.

According to the Youth Parliament, there is the need to maintain balance and give every Nigerian a sense of belonging, especially given the marginalisation the Igbo Nation has suffered in the country.

While reminding the Party that every segment of the Country has qualified individuals for national service, the Group expressed its support to the aspiration of Chief (Dr.) Orji Uzor Kalu as one of the next presiding officers of the Senate.

The choice of Dr. Kalu, the Youth Parliament noted is due to his versatility, sagacity and detribalized personality.

According to the Group, "the new Senator-Elect for Abia North successfully delivered APC in his constituency," querying what extra qualifications were necessary that he does not possess.

"For now and except convinced otherwise, the cap fits Orji Uzor Kalu and we so recommend him and will support all his efforts pursuant to becoming Senate President, the Group added.

The statement, signed by Comrade Eke Okogbue (President) and Prince Xavier Ikechi (Patron) also threatened to initiate the recall of any legislator from the South East that does not represent its constituents creditably.

GMB is everything Donald Trumps word. that been said, the igbos penchant for arrogant stupidity lack of tact cries to the high heavens. they cry loudest when the honourable thing to do would be buring their heads in shame but no honour is alien to that part of the world.

Coneheads on their way here to do the bidding of their masters,to foam in the mouth on their behalf.

Igbo are the most funny people in the world instead of fighting for minority leader, they want to share from majority where they didn't belong to

This marginalization noise is stale

Play politics and face the consequences of your political choices

Funny thing is PDP is not even considering any Igbo person for minority leadership of the Senate and they are not crying about that, it’s APC they’ve stigmatized in the region they are begging for post in NASS

I think there is still a dearth of good political strategists in that part of the country

Ok

There are over 300 tribes in 9ja why be say na only igbo dey scream always. Even tho na dem dey do demselves

Igbo this igbo that. According to some people here.

Are they Nigerians? Rubbish

Please I need the answer I wanna win a huge sum of money

The same kalu they called betrayal for contesting under APC! Igbos are clown

The leaders will be elected "on merit". - Buhari

Reminds me of the " Merit" in Living In Bondage Movie.

Messi sha...

Igbos want to reap where they didn't sow?
Go and fight for position with PDP, minority leader or something.
As for principal NASS leaders, NO WAY! you guys put all your eggs in one basket because of hatred and peanut Atiku dangled and you lost out.
Your other option is to take all the positions in the BIAFRAN NASS.

Atiku is coming..make ins wait for am....jokers

Who are they?

Message to CAN and ipobpigs
Looking for a Christian SP in an Islamic pary is like looking for a virgin in a maternity ward

Cool

Igbos are the architects of their doom. You can't eat your cake and still have it. Their political orientation is always at divergence with popular political views because there are always blinded by ethnic chauvinism. This agitation is dead on arrival.

Igbos are not begging for any position under the terrorist government

I dey laugh ohh.... I be Igbo man, but this thing dey sweet me for belle. Its good the selfish Igbo APC men are being treated shabbily. Okorocha down. Ouk will have his own taste, if he doesn't keep quiet and observe 'political' table manners.
I didn't support APC/Buhari in 2015 and I didn't in 2019, just like so many Igbos. If that will make them marginalize Igbos so be it. At least it will make to reason and know that "Onye ajuru aju, adighi aju onwe ya".
Igbos stay woke and learn this lessons being taught by those who think they have powers.
