Within space of three weeks Igbos have produced three Mayors in UK, I can feel you pain

And 2 Yoruba still hold the highest political position in UK, we are Naturally ahead

3 Mayors and Sout East will always be shithole

DonJossydirich:
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.

You saw how they rejected him bluntly but still want him to keep pushing .

Those positions in Lagos were given to Igbo for free and that's why we collected it back, or you think there is no other qualify Yoruba?

Another Nigerian Victoria Obaze becomes Mayor in uk


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)

All these Nigerians abroad achieving political appointments in stable countries. They should show patriotism and come back and help fix this shithole

What an amazing achievement by another Nigerian abroad. Those of you saying that Tower Hamlets/Whitechapel isn't an easy place to win for a Nigerian are completely correct. Someone who's able to do something like that should become the next President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria .

manchy7531:
Three Nigerians already in the Uk ��, plus one in Canada who from being a Minister of Municipal Affairs in Alberta, Canada, became elected and sworn in as the first black migrant member of parliament.

And guess what? They are all igbos.

In another mansland.

So, a few comments on facebook represents the view of the entire Ndi Ebonyi?

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

The question should be, can you stay anywhere in Nigeria apart from the south west?

LazyGold:
She is not an Igbo woman, I don't know why you losers keep claiming people from Niger Delta, hmm I guess that's because South East Igbo are losers lol

Your STUPIDITY is awesome....the Asaba king is the chairman of Igbo traditional rulers
