Chiwude:
You mean SW showing disdain. Are you for real. The north I know understand political alliance with Ndigbo than you guys. Your kind of politics is laden with hate when it doesn't go your way.
And remind me, the last time Igbo leaders excuse themselves from participating in national elections.

Jan 15, 1966

A military coup d'etat led by lower and middle-ranking officers, some of them Ibo, overthrew the NPC-NCNC dominated government. Prime Minister Balewa along with other northern and western government officials were assassinated during the coup. The coup was widely considered an Ibo plot to consolidate power and overthrow the northern dominated government. General Johnson Ironsi, an Ibo, consolidated power in the military and used its power to restore order throughout Nigeria. Ironsi declared all political parties illegal and formed the Federal Military Government (FMG).
Jul 29, 1966

A counter-coup was launched by mostly northern troops. General Ironsi and many others, mostly Ibo, were killed. Between June and July there was a mass exodus of Ibo from the north and west. Over 1.3 million Ibo fled the neighboring regions in order to escape persecution as anti-Ibo riots increased. The military aided some Ibo in their flight but many of those unescorted were massacred. The FMG, now under the control of Major General Yakubu Gowon, a middle-belt tribe member and a Christian, restored calm to Nigeria. The anti-Ibo riots led many to believe that the only way they could live securely was to secede and form their own country.
Aug 1 - Sep 30, 1966

Anti-Ibo riots gained momentum and voracity. The exodus gained greater impetus as hundreds of thousands fled the riot torn north. Armed bands of civilians and militia slaughtered Ibos indiscriminately. Over 30,000, mostly Ibo, were said to have died in the north and west. The eastern region was now flooded with Ibo refugees.
1967 - 1970

The Biafra civil war, an effort by eastern Ibo people to secede, fails with the surrender of Lt. Col. Odumegwu-Ojukwu. Between 1.5 million and 2.1 million were killed, including many who died in the famine following the war. The end result of the Ibo war of secession was the deaths of a large portion of their more educated male members and the almost total removal of Ibo from government. After the war, many Ibo were permanently removed from government service.

Chiwude:
How about the support of Ndigbo to Fashola in 2011. Oh, you didn't see that?

Chiwude:
You're really falling in your job. I know how frustrated you lots are after 'No Election, No Referendum' failed in the last election. Leave Igbo politics for her leaders and fight your Biafra sensibly. Igbo leaders and Ohaneze don't give a ratass about you.

Ultimatezlant:
I don't have a problem with any southern getting it.

Igbo's too can but where they wish to have it, it is becos of they don't know how to go about it that makes them feel a supposed Fulani must rule them.

Any southern can lay claim

IGBOSON1:


If you're actually Igbo like your choice of moniker suggests, then you're actually the gullible one......you, Ohaneze and the so called 'Igbo leaders'! Igbo haters just love Igbos like you as you've allowed them get away with a lot since the end of the uncivil war!

simonlee:
It is easier for El'Zakzakky to be president come 2023 than an Igbo man....

Ultimatezlant:
That came on the brink of a first term where fashola massively outperformed, it was only natural.

He got 1m+ votes against PDP paltry 300k votes.

Nobody wanted to be the hinge to his second term and be tagged enemy of progress

SW has no time for the Igbos let alone be interested in showing disdain for them. Yet, once again, another Igbo shows he does not understand the nature of the game and the character of the players. Tinubu is empowering Igbos in the SW by supporting them into important positions. This is seen nowhere else in Nigeria and tells you all you need to know about Yorubas and our visionary approach to nationhood.

It is the North who mainly show disdain for you with how they don't speak yet , behind the scene, are the biggest impediment to Igbo man ever becoming President because they are the region whose survival is inextricably linked to 'one Nigeria'. The problem for Yorubas is that we are educated, liberal and we talk frankly. This is why you find it easy to hate us, when we tell you the truth, more than your real enemies who do not talk at all yet have it in their mind that Igbos must never be empowered to lead.

If you and other Igbo youths really want to educated yourselves then read the link below to note what the Yorubas are about. You will, if you have an open mind, discern that it is you Igbos and Northerners who have caused the major problems for Nigeria while we Yorubas, always the most reasonable, are then dragged into the madness thereafter from the rash actions of others that was nada to do with us to begin with. You can continue hating and fighting the Yorubas as your parents have indoctrinated you to do or you can educate yourself. Up to you. See the part in bold below to note why Igbos became die hard secessionists. You will note it is nothing to do with us Yorubas yet it is us you hatefully put as the arrowhead hate figures of your Biafra agitation today. What does this show about Igbos if not an intrinsic inability to be fair to others and to appropriate blame to those truly deserving of it? Laughable you would all now rather queue behind Kwanwaso and Tambuwal to frustrate Tinubu, Fashola or Osinbajo. Go ahead. The North never really changes. You guys will face-off again with the way you both are. Just hope you leave Yorubas out of it this time.

I don't respond to Afonjas using IGBO names.

Insectkiller:
Useless talk..where is d one Nigeria, then.??

I blame dis ohaneze self..why fighting to get naija presidency when IPOB is there in waiting..
because of d ohaneze indigbos executives pocket, they decided to betray nnmadi kanu..

Chai! Chai!! Chai!!! Diaris God oo..

MachadoPreto:
Ohaneze should take a seat please.

Bitter truth they find difficult to imbibe.


It will be easier for a Congolese to become the president than an Igbo man.

The hand writing is boldly written on the wall.

Their support alone brings the high and mighty down, how much more when they contest.

By 2023, politicians will be fleeing for their support. Knowing fully well it's a sure pass to defeat.

I reckon you should do it. You will make a fortune and be as rich as Seun if igbos patronise you. The sad thing though is that Igbos will not leave Nairaland because Igbos are obsessed with the Yorubas and would be unable to breathe if they cannot associate with them. Same as I know, 100%, the Biafra noise is fake. Let it happen today and Igbos outside the SE will refuse flatly to return. Bro we know una well well. Igbos never say what they mean and never mean what they say.

TSRC:
The south East has the advantage of a southern popularity even before the elections.
We will defeat any Yoruba contender in the southern region and take the battle to the.north.

A Dave umahi or a Peter obi for the goal.

I salivate at the scale of national infrastructure a Dave umahi is capable of creating with federal resources.
The guy has transformed ebonyi.

Ultimatezlant:
lol, first am not Yoruba , next all these your tales of turning history in its head as you usually do won't work here.

Obj scored 18,738154 against falae 11,110287 in the 1999 election.

Igbo total votes for the winner obj was 2,307712 votes in all east states


Now subtract 2,307712 votes from obj 18,738154 obj still has 16,430442 votes.


Regarding the southern unity igbos gave olu falae 978,999 in all igbo states add that to obj 2,307712 it sums up 3,286709 total votes from Igbo land and obj would have still won comfortably had that 3m votes been given to ekwueme.



These are all verifiable and online, e clear say na una dey turn history on its head

Chiwude:
Sure. I think the APC may field either a Ken Nnamani, Rochas, Ameachi or Uzor Kalu while the likes of PDP fields a Umahi, Wike or Obi.
The SW will be in for a shocker.

Chiwude:
The Igbo political elites don't hate Tinubu. His thirst for power and the way he used the Oba of Lagos in the 2015 Gubernatorial elections to threaten Ndigbo brought that skepticism.
If the APC presents an Igbo consensus candidate, the SE/SS in the PDP will drop the idea of supporting a northerner. Wike and his associates in the PDP are not fools to gift the north another 4 years when they've ruled for 8 years already.
The SW cannot eat her cake and have it. Tinubu is coming out when others haven't tasted it. The SW have ruled for 8 years, they've had VP positions twice and Speaker thrice.
So on what ground are you jostling for Presidency this time around, when it was the same sympathetic cause you were gifted the Presidency in 1999.

7lives:


Why not collect your Ticket from PDP?

Chiwude:
You're shifting the goal post now. Do you really know the level of affection Ndigbo have for Fashola? Do you know the level of development Fashola executed in Lagos to which Igbos too benefitted from? Do you know Fashola appointed Igbos to his cabinet? I don't think you know, that till this day there is always this telepathy anytime Fashola visits the east to commission a project. Forget the game political game Peter Obi played with that night deportation. Fashola is loved and Ohaneze would had supported him wholeheartedly had he picked the APC ticket in 2014 instead of Buhari they dislike.
But for now the Igbo leaders are fixed on getting the Presidency, and if the Yoruba's are keen in fostering peace and justice in this country they should throw their weight behind an Ameachi or Rochas. Ndigbo have done that before with Abiola and Obasanjo it's now time for the SW to reciprocate that gesture. Pick an Igbo man and you'll see Igbo's in PDP overrun the northern consensus to the party ticket.

Chiwude:
No one will fall for your slur. The SE governors and Ohaneze doesn't care how IPOB go about actualizing Biafra and as so it shouldn't be your business how they go about getting the Igbo Presidency.
Fight yours and allow them fight theirs. The uncouth mouth of your leader Kanu in tagging every true nwafor Afonja is dead already. That game doesn't work anymore, try another.

Ultimatezlant:
lol, you seem to forget how vilified Igbo's in APC are by their own people.

Nobody would play home goal in APC to a Rocha's or an Igbo cos even Igbo's would reject it, if it can be done to ojukwu in beloved apgpa APC na small thing.

These are people who boast of not giving a damn about elders or oneness
