I strongly believe the Igbos would be best served demanding the PDP ticket instead of playing the spoiler like our people did against GEJ in 2015

The reason is because PDP is a strong party that can win the centre and APC would most likely concede their ticket to us.

So if APC presents say Osinbajo, PDP can present say umahi. APC can choose ElRufai as VP while PDP choose Tambulwal.

Anything can happen
In 2023, if APC presents a SW presidential candidate, PDP will win. All that'll be required of PDP will be to choose formidable VP from the North.

Note: in the SW, its always been APC/PDP: 60/40. SS and SE: 80/20 and 95/5 respectively. NC: ~60/40. The battle ground will then shift to the North.

PDP will definitely give them their ticket. They've worked hard for the party for TWO DECADES and deserve it. In fact, it is their BIRTHRIGHT.

They don't want and dont deserve the ticket of Boko Haram Party, APC, and don't need the support of Jubril al Sudani, aka, the Dullàrd.

Neither do they need the support of Afonjas or Yeroba mooslims, or gworo chewing almajiri northern abokìis.

cheesy cheesy

See ehn, politics sweet wella!! You get what you give!
Well said,spot on !

and the one in your state is doing magic or more better than that state?

Please be proud to tell us your state, am from Imo State and am proud of my state
There are no roads with portholes in your state? Adequate pipe borne water? Adequate power supply? What about unemployment rate in your state. Let's see the look of public schools in your state? Is it like that of my state? And again, what is the monthly allocations of your state? How old is your state? I'm from Osun

This guy can only talk on the behalf of Niger state, we core northerners reject nysmuri flat.heads with total rejection!!

They most get it through chest-beating and wailing, I'll love to see how far their threats will take them in 2023

Second class citizens can't govern this state, at least not for now..even minority seat dey hard dem for PDP! grin cheesy
See primitive man calling Igbos second citizen, without them you wouldn't be able to get your independence at the time, the made Nigeria and produced both first president, military head of state and first senate president, go and read your history, igbos made Nigeria and we must take it back or split, no two ways about it and that's the reason why you lots are scared of Igbo.

Only a political party that is ready for failure or defeat at the poll will present an Igbo as it's presidential candidate come 2023.

I sincerely support their Biafra agitation. Nigeria should just free these people biko !

I don't hate anyone.

I'm simply being realistic.

The Igbos know what they did post 2015.

Democracy requires numbers and those numbers are achieved by association, fraternity, communion and partnership.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with always voting in one direction. But insulting everyone else, creating anarchy and breakdown in law and order can never be tolerated.

2023 isn't far.

I think you are the one narrowing it to the hate of Buhari.

If the igbos don't insult the northerners they would insult the Yorubas.

Other times, they insult muslims and anyone not of their kin.

It's with suspicion every Igbo candidate would be viewed by other tribes.

There's no denying it.

North don't know Umahi, forget romance with Pmb, Obi is still more popular and acceptable among Nigerians.

our politicians are glutton,s selfish,and can not deliver the mind and wish of the igbo,as far as ipob is concerned,either biafra or nothing,the worst is if they manage to give igbo presdo,the wll be dictating and remoting him like they did to gej, we want to control our border,s get international airport that wll fly direct from onitsha to china, one in awka one both aba,ship wll come to onitsha both uguta lake ,biko ipob got many reason,s why we need biafra,which wll nt be achieved in one nigeria ,in biafra we

We are talking about realities on ground, not any sort of figment of ur imagination.. be realistic with yourself for once

We know APC is zoning their ticket to either the north or SW, while I see Atiku still clinching PDP ticket, even if PDP ends up zoning it to SE

Do u logically expect us(northerners) to vote for you? undecided
You are cutting dumb figure...

You really imagine that the Igbos will not get the chance to preside over Nigeria and you assume that Nigeria will continue to stick together as one united entity as it is presently?

Try and do some thinking....

The problem with people like you is that you think sentimentally 24/7. The Yorubas will give Nigeria one of her greatest President, just as Awolowo remains the most accomplished Politician in our history to date, if the right Yoruba is chosen. It is in the nature of the Yorubas to be tolerant, modern, liberal, egalitarian, inclusive and progressive. We are therefore not talking of supplanting an OBJ-type in power who is nothing but a 'tool' for the 'business as usual' cabal who wan't Nigeria to stay as it is so they keep feeding fat.

Many Nigerians, to include Northerners, know what a progressive Yoruba can do with the Presidency. Insha Allah it will happen come 2023.
You are the sentimental one here. Obj is not "the right Yoruba" to you because he was very detribalized, thats how selfish and tribalistic you sound. Considering the economic situation he inherited, he still remains the best president we have had since 1999 and mind you he was not controlled by any cabal. He understands the north and their gimmies perfectly well, that's why they fear him.

BTW, how old are you?

IF SW PRESENT A CANDIDATE, SE WILL GO FOR VP AND LET THE NORTH PRESENT THE CANDIDATE IN PDP.


THIS IS WAT IS MOST LIKELY TO HAPPEN.


IN 1999, BOTH PARTIES PRESENTED A SW CANDIDATE. (OBANSANJO V OLU FALAE)


IN 2019, BOTH PARTIES PRESENTED A NORTHERN CANDIDATE. (BUHARI V ATIKU)



IF IT IS ZONING, THEN BOTH APC AND PDP SHOULD PRESENT A SE CANDIDATE OF THEIR CHOICE.


IF NIGERIA IS FOR ALL OF US AND THE SE IS STILL WANTED IN NIGERIA.

The damage Nnamdi Kanu did to you cannot be estimated.

All you had to do was ride out 8 years whilst maintaining your more recent relationship with the rest of the country pre-2015.

For some strange reason, politicians and I'm hoping I'm wrong, your innate hatred for other tribes was quickly demonstrated as soon as Buhari came into power.

Even the ND that just had its son rejected at the polls moved on but not the SE.

I have never witnessed such self-flagellation in my life.

I'm curious to see how you would fix this.
Stop indulging yourself in crass scaremongery and hallucinations...

The Igbos having been participating in the electoral process since Nigeria emerged:casting votes for candidates from virtually all parts of the country.

If not for your terrible narrow-mindedness, you would have seen that Nigeria is beyond a slavish devotion to Buhari who has less than four years to exit the stage.

The Igbos should be lionized for repudiating Buhari and his brand of divisive politics.

Let history vindicate the just...

I HAVE TOLD MY IGBO BROTHERS THAT HAUSA ARE NEVER THE PROBLEM IN NIGERIA.

WAT YORUBA MOD DOES IS TO HIDE ALL THE EVIDENCE I POST OF HAUSA BEING GENUINE AND CONSIDERATE.

ON THIS FORUM, I HAVE SAID IT COUNTLESS TIMES, THAT I RATHER SHARE COUNTRY WITH HAUSA THAN YORUBA.

I HAVE NEVER STOP SAYING.

THIS THREAD IS POSSIBLE BECOS OF ANOTHER HAUSA MAN WITH A CONSCIENCE THAT WENT AS FAR AS SAYING IGBO PRESIDENCY IS NOT A PRIVILEGE BUT A RIGHT.

CAN WE IGBOS TRY TO KEEP NOTE OF THIS?

oh, you are from Osun no wonder, please try to advice your state governor on how to better your state and her people, why I do same to my governor, because it's very wrong for a man who's house is on fire is found eating ukwobi and taking palm wine in another man's house.

THEY EVEN WANTED TO RUN AGAINST THE SW, SAYING THEY WILL ONLY STEP DOWN IF THE POSITION WAS OFFERED TO THE SE.

DO U NEED ME TO POST THE NEWS LINK AND PIC HERE?

GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND.

Y THE BRITISH BROUGHT YORUBA TO NIGERIA WAS PRINCIPALLY TO CAUSE CONFUSION IN THE SOUTH.
