BakireBulmaker:
Na today una don dey watch

mrvitalis:
Apart from lagos show me a yoruba city better than aba ...ariel view please ...lets compare

The past governor of western nigeria warned u people igbos have developed more than u guys

Fix ur brown roofs first then we talk

Shuku0kukobambi:
The areas with brown roofs are so wonderful that John pepper Clark wrote a poem about it. Are you not tired of engaging in a d!ck waving contest? Anyway, you can go ahead with the comparison so I can applaud you.

Meanwhile, mention all you gained from all the posts your folks held since 1999? That was the question my post you quoted approximated to.

mrvitalis:
What we have gained ? Being the most developed region in nigeria even after the war ...not get out of my mention

Yyeske:
True to the last word, would Ndigbo ever learn after this?
Politics and democracy is about numbers and interests, not emotions and hatred Ndigbo are practising now.

PaChukwudi44:
The SE will never vote for APC definitely not under intimidation

CowHard:
Yet you wail of being schemed out of the NASS leadership composition??

Funny people!!!

tunjiajayi:
Then tell your people to stop wailing in vain.
But wait I heard the slot for clerk as been zoned automatically to the east

Abi Una no want sef

Shuku0kukobambi:
True you're not wailing but your compatriots online and on the streets have been wailing uncontrollably. The annoying part is that their sole ambition has always been to see how they can sabotage Yoruba, Tinubu and even northerners without thinking of how they'll get there.

It's politicians that benefit from political office but the way they've remained fixated on an election that GEJ and the SS have moved on from makes you wonder what special thing GEJ did in that region.

How many Igbo benefited from Ekweremmadu's 12 years as DSP?

Goke7:
folks like you are the problem of your region!

mrvitalis:
See if APC think they can make igbos vote for them by trying to starve them of position and marginalise them then they have failed

People like me that supported APC in 2015 and 2019 have withdrawn their support completely

Igbo man can never i repeat never bow to intimidation ...the more u intimate him the more the resist

We vote in one direction ...thats what put us here ...trust me that same voting in one direction would bring Us out back to national politics

Lets see if north would reject the opportunity to retain power by teaming up with igbos in 2023

I laugh when people talk politic is a marathon 8 years is just a lap ...relax and learn from igbos

My man, you truly supported APC and buhari and it's unfortunate how it all panned out but that's politics.

Personally, I'm even tired of the attention sef. Let the Igbo play their game and get a VP to hausa in 2023, it's not a problem. In 1960, Igbo was governor general and Senate president. Northerner was prime Minister, Yoruba didn't stop eating Amala.

In 1979, Igbo was VP and speaker. Calabar was Senate president, Yoruba didn't stop eating gbegiri.

By all means arrange VP for yourselves in 2023, I won't complain. There are about 300 tribes in Nigeria. All of them deserve a chance

capitalzero:
Nothing lasts forever.in 2011, both vp and speaker came from northwest and deputy speaker and dsp from south east.South west and north east had none. In the future, things will change.politics is dynmics and lagos money will not be available forever.

So also those ones below your post have kerosene already so oya go and queue for your master's kerosene

The inauguration of the ninth assembly which took place on the 11th of June has come and gone but the events and proceedings are still worthy of discussion.
Senator Ahmed Lawan clinched the Senate presidency with Senator Ovie Omo-Agege clinching the deputy slot.

At the green chambers, Hon Femi Gbajabiamila clinched the speakership position while Hon Idris Ahmed Wase got the deputy speaker slot.
However, the aftermath of the NASS elections meant Igbos and South Eastern geopolitical zone got practically nothing.

The proceedings also highlighted the unpreparedness of Ndigbo in the polity and politics of Nigeria. The shameful outing brought to the fore, the lackadaisical and politics of vengeance inherent in this part of the country.

While the eventual winners of the NASS elections were vigorously campaigning and canvassing for votes, our lawmakers went holidaying, expecting to be handpicked and decorated with the winners medal.

The two high ranking senator-elects in the person of the immediate past governor of Imo state, Rochas Okorocha and his Imo counterpart, senator Uwajumogu who were in a better position to clinch the elective slots were tactically chased away from the national assembly complex with the court while Ndigbo watched and cheered.

Before the composition of the NASS leadership, South East had three elected senators on the platform of the ruling party APC which are Rochas Okorocha, Orji Kalu and Senator Uwajumogu of Imo north senatorial district.
But in a dramatic fashion, two out of the three elected senators had their certificates withdrawn, leaving the region with just a single member in a chamber of 109 senators.

I'm not a fan of Rochas Okorocha and his #iberiberism governance in Imo state but the role he was to play at the red chambers supersedes whatever ills that characterized the politics of Imo state.

Politics calls for a serious permutations and calculations. Gone are the days of ethnic jingoism and victim mentality.
Femi Gbajabiamila toured virtually all the states of federation canvassing for support but ours was to cheer as the only options with a brighter chance got schemed out by the very hegemonic cabals.

We readily cry of being marginalized but in the truest of the whole issue, we are the architect of our misfortune.
The South east has never hidden their hatred for the APC led federal government hence the indifference in the imbroglios that schemed out her bright prospects from the NASS leadership composition.

To compound the whole scenario, the region presented, or rather nominated senator Ike Ekweremadu for senate deputy slot. This is a senator that has held the deputy president position for a record 12 years. The same senator left a bitter taste in the mouth of the ruling party when he clinched his position through the back door at the composition of the 8th Senate.

He was rousingly defeated by his competitor thus seeing to a decline in his political influence.

At the moment, Igbos are left with no strong political force and a strong contender for the 2023 election even if it's zoned to the region.
To Ndigbo, the composition of the NASS leadership is a mere jamboree but to others, it's a warm up to the next general elections.

The dearth of politics of alignment has made the region to be more or less onlookers in the leadership composition of the federation.
At a point, we claim not be interested in the politics of the country but before one says jack, we are back crying of being marginalized.

The South west aligned, lobbied and were rewarded with ministerial portfolios despite enjoying the vice presidency slot.
Raji Fashola is the minister for works, housing and power. Three powerful portfolios!!
Where went my brothers when the food was being served?

Under the PDP, we cried, wept and wailed of marginalization. Is there anything wrong if we give the current ruling party a try? I thought they said there's no harm in trial?
Igbos, while we fight ourselves to destruction, strangers are busy scooping and taking up the slots meant for us.

Go and eat the position.
Who is wailing if not you. ?
Is it an igbo person that created this thread ?
Abeg, leave igbos alone.
Never seen this kind of obsession.

Konki:
Igbos are republican in nature.

Obasanjo, a Yoruba man ruled for 8 years. What remarkable thing did he do for Yorubas?

North has occupied the Presudency/head of state more than any other zone. Are they more developed (collectively) than Igbos,?

Political position benefits the occupier more than his people. Stop flying ethnic kite.

Firstly ask Igbo governors what they do with monthly allocations \IGR they receive!

Nobody is wailing Oga, the Igbo man is busy making money

After all your positions in the Nans na una go line up and beg for food

KingOdart:

IDPs Camp all over South East

You are still the poorest in the South

This is a thread of how GEJ marginalized Yoruba and how Igbo were making jest of us

Tell me GEJ and Igbo didn't get what they deserve?
