Story for the gods, move out first and no python dance this time, show some seriousness so that others can take you serious

Stingman:


Be honest! If they north are the ones clamouring to leave Nigeria, will you say this?

How do you big coward live?

Ezeife is senseless just as his brethren. The idiots are boasting with IPOB, yet when the Python went to dance in Biafra two years ago, the idioms were streaming genocide to UN, UK, US, EU calling for help that never came.

Just like our elderly stateman Chief Edwin Clark warned, if Igbos are denied the presidency there will be problem "the baboons and dogs will be soaked with blood".
After Igbos finish their two terms, the south south will complete GEJ's 2nd term that the south west betrayed!

For more than 50 years SE had not lead this country both military and civilian. You have been sharing it between yourselves. The SE has no single federal investment...and these sounds melodious to you? You want these people to love Nigeria than you that have all these things? How do the leaders of this country reason? When the gods wants to destroy a people they made them dumb and deaf so they cannot see any reason for their actions.

Did you see how the north threatened the country in 2014? Leaders in both PDP and APC did. What did you say then? The north used sharia to disturb Obasanjo presidency, what did you coward do? Today Zamfara the state that started sharia is the HQs of banditry? When would they cuts the hands of those bandits?

It will pay you to leave SE people alone.

Area4Area:
See someone who hates Nigeria and wants to leave is calling another coward, what is still holding you back?
The way the north or SW would behave shouldn't be your business for now, it is you that wants to leave that should the needful and fast

As an itsekiri man, I can never be part of Biafra.

I can't speak for others, neither can you.

LabDNA:
Do to Obi what you did to Segun in 1999 in the spirit of equity. Is that too much to ask in this country? Why are black people naturally wicked?

You are plainly childish...As if you are the president to say where and when python dance would be sent.

Read the post again. I say if the north wants to leave...? Read it slowly this time...

It is not DOA. If the present a good candidate, say someone in the mould of Soludo, UNDER PDP (because I know the ticket is going to the SW for APC), I might even vote for PDP.

2023 presidency: Don’t threaten North using IPOB, says ACF scribe

The Secretary-General of the Arewa Consultative Forum, Mr Anthony Sani, has warned that using the Indigenous People of Biafra to threaten the North over the 2023 presidency will not help the cause of the Igbo to produce the President when the time comes.

Referring to a statement credited to a former Governor of Anambra State, Dr Chukwuemeka Ezeife, in an interview with a national newspaper (not The PUNCH) where the elder statesman noted that Igbo people might embrace IPOB if denied the presidency in 2023, the ACF scribe argued that using IPOB to blackmail the region was unfair.

According to Sani, in an interview with Sunday PUNCH, democracy is a contest of ideas and reasons and not a matter of threats and intimidation.

He said, “I have said democracy is a contest of ideas and reasons, and not by threats and intimidation that have no place in multiparty democracy. The presidency is secured in multiparty democracy through persuasions that seek to break barriers and build bridges. It is not obtained through affirmative action.

“I do not believe Ezeife could say what was reported. This is because he is too intelligent not to know that Nigeria practises multiparty democracy which allows political parties to present their candidates from any zone as part of their winning game plans.

“Ezeife also knows that there is no national consensus on rotation, power shift or zoning that is binding on political parties. That may explain why President Muhammadu Buhari contested with President Olusegun Obasanjo in 2003 despite the deliberate concession of the presidency to the South-West because of Chief (M.K.O.) Abiola. That is also why former President Goodluck Jonathan contested with Buhari in 2011 and 2015.

“If ex-President Jonathan had won in 2015, the South would have held sway for over 16 years in the nascent democracy. You may also note that in 2019, presidential candidates emerged from both the North and the South. What is more, democracy is a contest of ideas and reasons and not a matter of threat and intimidation.

“Worst of all, the feisty doctor is reported as using IPOB to blackmail the nation. This is most unfair, especially when regard is paid to the fact that the threats can convey an avoidable impression that some elders of the South-East still nurse some desire to split the country through IPOB.”

But in an interview with Sunday PUNCH, Ezeife said the South-East would embrace persuasion to achieve its aspiration, adding that discussions were already ongoing with some groups in all parts of the country to achieve their aspiration.

“We are going to lobby every group; we would lobby from North to South, East to West. Some of us have started; one Revd. Obiora is foremost in this, he has started and he is in touch with some groups already. If we are not able to organise ourselves and 20 Igbo people come out to contest for the presidency, that will be our fault. But we want to ensure that we get in touch with the political players to organise themselves and ensure that they present themselves for Nigerians to see,” he said.

However, the President-General of the Ohanaeze Youth Council, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, said all groups in the South-East would work to achieve the 2023 aspirations, adding that plans were underway to approach the two leading political parties as well.

“We will approach both major parties as platforms to actualise the Igbo 2023 presidency project. We would remind both the All Progressives Congress and Peoples Democratic Party to first respect the gentleman agreement by zoning the party ticket to South, and then persuade the stakeholders in the South-South, South-West, to allow South-East to take a shot at the Presidency.

Shut up.

Your hermaphrodite brother-sister mentioned itsekiri as being partisan to the cause and I cleared it of that delusion.

By the way, this is a thread by ACF and this is Nairaland.

If you don't want anyone to mention your tribe go to an exclusive forum.
