The question is how many non igbos have gotten political appointments in igboland in the last 20 years?

Igbos are more accomodating and more sociable than other ethnic groups in Nigeria! That's a fact.

In fact, Igbos represent the "One Nigeria" concept more than other ethnic groups. For instance, there's no location in Nigeria you won't see Igbos who live there!

Also Igbos marry from other ethnic groups more than any ethnic group!

If you live in Igboland for a long time and want to contest for a political office, you can!

Yoruba was the first

She joined last year while Barroness Margeret Omolola Young joined since 2004. The only reason she was regarded as the first was because she was born in Nigeria while the others were born in UK and she is not Igbo

[b]Another Nigerian Victoria Obaze becomes Mayor in uk
she is not the 1st black mayor, neither is Mr ezeajughi. the first black mayor was Mrs Janet Adegoke. check this list 1987



https://www.lbhf.gov.uk/councillors-and-democracy/about-hammersmith-fulham-council/mayors-office/list-mayors


Mrs Victoria Obaze, a Nigerian from Imo State made history on Wednesday after she was sworn into office as the first black female Civic Mayor of London Borough of Tower Hamlets, United Kingdom (UK).

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Obaze’s inauguration on Wednesday is the latest in turn of events that have seen Nigerians emerge as Mayors in their area councils of residence in the UK.

It will be recalled that Mr Ernest Ezeajughi, and Mrs Kate Anorue, both from Anambra State, were recently sworn into office as Mayors of London Borough of Brent and Enfield, respectively.

Obaze who contested three previous councillorship elections in 2010, 2014 as well as 2016 and failed, eventually succeeded in an election conducted on May 5, 2018 in Whitechapel Ward.



She later became the Council’s Deputy Speaker following her nomination by her Councillor Colleagues from where she took over the mantle as Mayor of London Borough of Tower Hamlets.

A statement containing brief history of Obaze obtained by NAN from her close associate and UK Chapter Coordinator, Ugonwanne Social Club Nigeria Int’l, a Nigerian socio-cultural group in UK, Ms Blessing Chijekwu, revealed that the newly sworn-in Mayor had lived in Borough for over 30 years.

“For Councillor (Cllr) Obaze life is all about service to humanity with diligence. Her political experience started when she was elected as one of the board of directors to oversee the regeneration of her area, the Ocean Estate, in the 1980s.

“The move motivated her to get into politics having noticed that there were no black women in the council chambers and this led her to open a project named Healthy Life Style for Stepney Women, East London.

“The project was funded by local authority through Ocean African Caribbean Association which she and her late husband Chief Evangelist Charles Obaze, co-founded.

“She also established Ocean Saturday School aimed at ensuring school attainment for children, as well as Ocean Football Club through which young boys were able to have residential football experiences with Chelsea football Club.

“Above all, Cllr Obaze loves God with a passion; she is a member of Parochial Church Council (PCC), as well as an Executive Council member at St Dunstan’s Church of England Parish in Stepney.

“She is also a Secondary School governor in Tower Hamlets and a habitual visitor to the elderly and physically challenged in the community,” the statement quoted Chijekwu as saying.


The statement also quoted Lolo Ngozi Nwanze, President, Ugonwanne Social Club Nigeria Int’l as saying that Obaze was chosen as life matron of the club because of her meekness and morality.

“These are the virtues that have brought her to where she (Obaze) is today.”

Obaze who has four children and two grand Children attended West London College and Metropolitan University where she studied Business Administration and Community Sector Management at different times.

She also has certification in childcare which enabled her operate a registered charitable childcare centre in UK named Vicharles Play Centre. (NAN)

You think you can fool people but you can only fool yourselves
So because Alhaji Salisu Moh'd is non Igbo, they should leave the post for him because he contested and not an Igbo man. Did you read how many times they said Mrs Obaze contested before she won? He must keep pushing if he want to win a election in Igbo nation.. Those Igbos in Lagos push for every post that they are having, it was never given to them free by the Yorubas.
