Bubu hated the Igbos first from 1983. Also he said in 2001 that God willing sharia will be spread over Nigeria, Igbos and sharia are opposite. The Igbos believe in liberalism while Bubu believes in state total control, again difference. All the project you attributed to Bubu was started and had gone considerable extent under GEJ else Bubu wouldn't have done anything. His policies are tending to suppress the Igbos but he failed

But if he hates Igbos would he not cancel these projects you claim were initiated by GEJ?

SOUTH EAST: IS IT NOT TOO LATE?

I have read the recent transmissions by Senator Bukola Saraki directed at my Igbo tribe. I have deliberately kept mum on this as I had earlier resolved to speak less on Igbos as regards the 2019 Elections and 2023 Presidency having said quite a bit. 

However seeing as some of my brethren have swallowed the cheap bait, I will chip this in just to keep the reality before us, at least for posterity sake. Truth is bitter but it's still the best medicine. 

My people say; 'He who does not remember where the rain started beating him, will not remember where it stopped'. 

REWIND TO 2014. 
A new National Party was being conceived. Political Parties, political players and Regions were being wooed to the new alliance. 

'We' Igbos (read South East) vehemently refused to touch it even with a long pole. We packaged, sold to ourselves and bought the baseless propaganda that it was an Islamic alliance that would birth an "Islamic" and "Hausa" Party. Simply because those our brethren heavily invested in the PDP at the time were afraid of losing their vested selfish interests.
Till today I'm still trying to fathom the basis for that wicked and twisted deceit especially as many of those Igbo elites who sold that dummy have since ported to the same APC.

We failed to even identify with that new Alliance. Hence the Party, APC was birthed without any remarkable input from us or presence. The few amongst us who aligned were called all kinds of names and abused to high heavens by us even when they were proven right afterall.

Thus the few Igbos who were part of it were at best fringe players as they didn't have the required clout to make serious demands and do the necessary political wheeling and dealing required in Politics to strike the hard bargains since politics is all about interests and numbers. They were even suspect, so much so that it was only their personal political sagacity that gave them whatever they got.

That Party went on to win the Presidential Election which in truth, most of us never believed it could or would, because of our half baked permutations and poor understanding of Nigerian politics. But it did. 

Curiously we turned up at the fore front of telling this same Party how it should share it's 'spoils of war'. We became hypocritical moral champions with an over bloated sense of entitlement. Who does that, in all political reality and practicality? But we did, even while vehemently and vociferously still refusing to shift our position, style and rhethoric.

We dug in. Supported every bad thing and person against the Party, the elected President and the Administration while denying any and every good done to and for our Region.

Fast forward to where we are today. Almost four years after the 2015 misadventure, we have stayed put at 2015, refusing to move forward, refusing to shift grounds, refusing to play pragmatic politics, telling ourselves the same lies we cooked and bought in 2015 and some more. 

Now after election, we have started again saying "APC cannot give Presidency to Igbos in 2023". "Buhari cannot hand over to an Igbo man because Buhari hates Igbos". "APC is deceiving you", bla bla bla.

Of course. We will believe Saraki, who has only but a fanthom dream of becoming President and whose only known record is selfishness but we can't believe Buhari who's already President and who has a record of voluntarily picking two great Igbo sons as running mates in the past? Chukwu aju.

It is interesting and vital to note here that the PDP which many of us still proudly support and adore was in power for 16 solid years and in those years there were 4 Presidential Inaugurations and on none of those was an Igbo man found worthy by the PDP of even Vice Presidency and we are still bold to say it is the APC that has not even finished one tenure that doesn't want to give power to Igbos. Odi nma. 

NOW; Seriously, let's be sincere. As things stand today politically, why would the APC even hand power to us Igbos in 2023? 
On what grounds? 
On what records?
On what politics?
Is power given to anyone? 
Is it an appeasement or a gift? 

The APC is a political party. The main focus of a political Party is to hold power and keep it to enable it deliver on its agenda. So if the APC reads that the SE does not want the Presidency or does not have the capacity to help them win and keep power, they will stick with the regions that can and work with individuals who are interested. 

Make no mistake, I have always said, I do not blame us Igbos for the decision majority of us took in 2015. It's our right. But continuing to pretend that it was other regions, Buhari or the APC that made us do what we did then or remain where we are today is purely self deceit and I refuse to play that ostrich game. 

As far back as 2014, I and many others made that argument that Igbo Presidency was very feasible in 2023, ONLY under under the APC, ONLY IF we did a couple of things right politically. I personally continued to speak loudly on that even after the 2015 elections until when I realized that we were not ready to play the politics that was required and now I dare say it may be too late. Or is it not? Time will tell.

For now, we can continue to tell ourselves that we cannot hold the Presidency of Nigeria. We heard and read many of our brethren go from PDP to Biafra/seccesion (read IPOB) to Referendum to "Igbos do not need Presidency but Restructuring" etc forgetting that all that didn't lie squarely with us alone. We think other regions are not reading our body language?

We really don't care what Saraki writes or says because they've all come to realize that it's very easy to play us like a flute. So like Saraki, like Fani Kayode, like Fayose, like Atiku, even Jonah Jang of all people, they keep playing us.

We have learnt not to bother ourself anymore to avoid unnecessary arguements with nonentities
As some of us have said, it's good governance we want, even if only one village will be producing the Presidents. So be it..

You no go see them on this kind of thread

See this one way go soon beg for southern unity

CrimeKsmart:
Even though its their turn and the ticket is given to them, one thing is sure, Yoruba and Hausa won't vote them.
The almajiri in the north won't vote for them
The afonja in SW won't vote for them
Yoruba Muslims wont vote for them

You cant hate on other tribes and expect love from them. We are going to remind them how they insult every tribe that tells the truth by posting the screenshot of the insults and hate they carry about. We have all the records of the insults and hatred.

They should better stick to their biafra nonsense or nothing

nobody can stop movement which time is ripe ,since injustice is what we crave for let see how injustice will unite us .

Nwaonyishi69:
Because they don't belong to this country.

Yes.
They are 3rd class Citizens of this Country.
They are also slaves to the North.

Some of these projects have clauses, some financed with Chinese loans, cancelling would have been more expensive overall. Besides some of these projects were approved in the FEC. The places where he has sole authority like appointments, he has shown his dislike for Igbos even calling us 7%

Go meet "others" to teach you how to play politics in Nigeria.
Spread round all major parties and see yourself grow politically.
A tribe in Nigeria does that regularly and it is been a success so far.

Wait till God leave you alive till 2023 first and nah God go still choose the president self so stop wailing

The solution to the political situation in Nigeria is to scrape the current constitution. A southern or eastern presidential bid will solve nothing. A change of party will not work too.

ERockson:
What's stopping Igbo from contesting for presidency.

No, they don't want to contest, instead Igbos just want one of them to be selected and sworn in without election.

Advocate500:

Nothing like injustice here. The day Biafra will come to reality is the day you guys will stop hating on other tribes. The fact is that you can't achieve Biafra alone without the support of one major tribe in Nigeria.

What more can I say here

I think we should just dash these Igbos the presidency before they all develop high blood pressure.

No need for election, they should just pick Okorocha or Peter Obi and swear them in on June 12 2023.

We should use the INEC budget fee to buy Hero beer for every Nigerian to celebrate the feat.

ProWalker:
We should forget about wasting money for election and just ask the igbos to nominate one Person to become President

It'll be easier for the needle to fly through the camel of the eye than it'll be for igboes to collectively agree on anything

Gforce2015:
Yes.ipob president must come from Southeast

We've got not problem with that provided it will be in the person of Chief Rochas Okorocha.

Who go vote
