An Igboman has been president and Vice President, SP and deputy SP, Speaker and Deputy Speaker, even as Military Head of State!

In business they are doing well, which means there's no extreme poverty in Igboland!

In entertainment, they rule! Yes! Igbos own Nollywood as you know it!

Our women are the most beautiful, our men very strong.

Even if it's crime you want, we represent our fair share because na we get liver pass!

If Nigeria is not working, why can't it split?

The only romance Yoruba has with fulani is political.

If tomorrow something goes wrong, they will take us back to June 12 all over again.

If this country is afraid of splitting up, at least let the zoo be restructured into manageable parts and let everyone go back and develope their zones.

So share with us what he is doing politically since return from prison.

Tell us what Buhari did politically before y'all lined behind him?

NCNC was not created by Macauley but by a group of Nigerians which included Macauley.

MetaPhysical:
Ok, so straight and direct to the point, this morning I am going to write about political fortune...or misfortune....of Ibos in Nigeria, with its impacts for 2023.

Good morning my people!

First and foremost, let us acknowledge the Yorubas and their gratuitous influence in modelling, shaping and uplifting Ibos in the political history of Nigeria. I say this because in the history of political activism in Nigeria and partisan politicking, Yoruba is the vanguard of social and economic progress in this Nation, whether in the 1800s, the 1900s or the 2000s. Colonialism came to Nigeria through the bombardment of Lagos in the war of agidingbi in 1851. By 1951 Lagos had become the hotbed of political activism and a host to many economic migrants who had come to Lagos to earn a living. Many of them later followed in the footsteps of Yoruba activists who pioneered liberty forums and political action groups that demanded representation in the administration of government. Migrants created ethnic social groups to represent their town affairs in Lagos. Towards independence, many of them ended joining political platforms pioneered by Yorubas. One of such examples is the entry of Ibo town union into NCNC, which was created by Herbert Macauley, a Yoruba. The entry was facilitated by Nnamdi Azikiwe, an Ibo, who later joined NCNC and succeeded Herbertt Macauley after death. On becoming its President Nnamdi Azikiwe turned the erstwhile national party into an Ibo party. Hence the first political party in East was NCNC. Prior to NCNC Ibo had never formed a political platform party for government representation. Their successes in NCNC, while it lasted, is owed to the pioneering work of Yoruba political activism in Lagos and Ibadan. When Yorubas in NCNC realized that their party had lost its nationalism under Azikiwe, and had progressively been turned into an Ibo party they departed, one after the other. Soon after Yoruba departure from NCNC its fortunes changed, the party withered, and could no longer secure the many successes it had before. NCNC became a subordinate partner to NPC, with whom it went into alliance to form government. This was reflected symbolically in the position given to Azikiwe as President of Nigeria, while NPC man, Balewa, held the reins of power in the Pime Ministership.

After the war, in 1979, Azikiwe returned with a new party called NPP. The party came third behind NPN in popular and electoral votes. UPN, a Yoruba party, scored the highest count. NPP had a struggle winning in its own region in East, whereas the Yoruba UPN won every state in West and Bendel and many legislative seats across the nation. UPN victory was challenged in court that its win was not spread across the nation, hence the case of 2/3rd coverage. UPN victory at the polls was overturned and NPN was declared winner. Immediately after, Azikiwe announced a alliance with NPN. Thus NPN/NPP formed ruling government while UPN was opposition government. Inspite of the experience as a ruling government twice, East had nothing to show before or after. Meanwhile Yoruba was the opposition party in both the first and second republic and it was very successful in establishing many social programs and developments in West. One of its legacies that survived till today and doing extremely well is Oodua Investment Corporation. The participation of Ibo in rulership in first and second republic was a misfortune because Ibo gained nothing out of it beside symbolism. North built an oil refinery, created a Northern Development Corporation, created newsprint, and many other tangible assets. Till today East has no development corporation, whether govt sponsored like in North or self-sponsored like in West. While North developed industrial complexes in Kaduna and Kano, and West created industrial townships in its region, the only prominent industrial complex in East was located in Port Harcourt. What has Ibo gained in its political partnership with North in our first two republics? Symbolism. thats all...and even that symbolism was subordinated to North as the default ruler.


Since we started this new phase beginning 1999, PDP has enjoyed unwavering and committed loyalty and surrogateship from Ibo. Yet it continues year after year to secure Ibo alliance and guarantees without offering any substantial gain in return. When is PDP going to make an Ibo the uncontested candidate in a presidential election? By uncontested I mean there will be no primary held. Unanimously declare an Iboman the PDP flag bearer.


I must say that Ibo people themselves are not political jet-setters. If they were the ongoing events in Edo State will play out differently. I must highlight this with precision.

It is obvious that Atiku has been overbearing in PDP. He has activated political groups, he has dispatched PDP governors to engage and bring success to Edo. So we can say Atiku is the helmsman in PDP. Well, in comparison, Atiku has not given to PDP half of what Ibo has committed in money, time, sacrifice. Atiku has not shown interest in 2023 race and he has not endorsed the Ibo aspiration for the position....in fact he has been silent on the matter. So why is Atiku so passionate about Edo win for PDP? Because it adds credit to his sagacity and reinforces belief in his capacity as party leader....a father! If Ibo people are sincere about 2023 presidency, Edo should be their battle...a testing ground. An Iboman should be the one directing affairs of what must happen to get victory for Obaseki. The more PDP wins in SS, SE, the better the chance of an Iboman winning 2023, therefore Ibo has a far more burden of success to win it for PDP than Atiku does. Atiku has defected between parties so many times there is no assurance he will not again defect if he sees better opportunity elsewhere.

Atiku, a Fulani, is at the helm of a party largely cemented with commitments in East, and eyeing forward to a nomination that rightly belongs in South and to the Ibos, meanwhile in APC, Tinubu is also at the helm of affairs. Where is Ibo helmsman, and what party is he leading? We can't find him!

So tell me how an Iboman is going to be candidate for PDP or APC in 2023 when Atiku is already showing moves for PDP in Edo and Tinubu is receiving visiting APC caretaker committees freshly appointed by the president. Where is Iboman?

From your writing the Igbo political elite never invest in any political project on a national scale. They wait to claim the trophy. Once the soup is done they will come forward with their soup bowl. They are waiting for the tickets to be shipped to them.

That has been their political history in Nigeria.

They are acutely deficient in forecasting and strategizing a political outcome.

They are not involved in Edo. They are hiding at moment....but if Obaseki wins they will troop out and claim their support gave him victory.

They are not founders like Yorubas who are known for pioneering and exceling. Ibos are political opportunists.

Similarly they are unable to found developmental and industrial initiatives in Iboland but they take opportunity where industries already exist to eeke a survival.

The opportunities they have had are abundant and at this point Ibo should not be crying to Feds about lack of development in Iboland.

Beside political opportunities there is also economic. They make money elseqhere and still refuse to take up a marshall plan and renew Ibo out of self-help.


Ibo ruled government with Balewa. Ibo was the ruling government in Ironsi's military. They ruled government with Shagari. Ibo ruled with Babangida. Ibo ruled with GEJ.

Yet no development corporation or industrial estate.

PDP owe Ibo. 2023 is time for Ibo to get paid and PDP must make it happen for them. The presidential candidate of PDP in 2023 must be Ibo. This is absolutely deserved....after their sweat and sacrifice to that party.

Macauley founded NCNC and invited those others you identified as "group of Nigerians" to join.

He invited leaders from the various ethnic town groups in Lagos at the time. It was a national party.

Ok so 1999 till date has become abominable to you because they killed Abiola and replaced him with obasanjo, that's why you are feeling fly?

Or are you high because Tinubu APC won 2019 gen elections after 16yrs in the cold hands of opposition?

You are obviously a kid otherwise you would have known that the Senate under Obj, was presided by an Igboman!

Most of you Yoruba mooslims just jump into NL to swell the numbers of ZBs with your herd mentalities.

Fair.

Buhari is not a candidate in 2023.

To have a forward progress Nigeria needs a leader with a socialist agenda to uplift citizens and a capitalist agenda to build and sustain economy and trade.

Our winning candidate must have proven records and tracks of success at promoting and practicing diversity and inclusion. The candidate must have a sustainable blue-print for structural growth and efficiencies in manpower, labor productivity as well skills and knowledge acquisition.

We want a candidate that understands and appreciates the contract between govt and citizens and effect policies that is balanced, not oppressive.

The candidate must understand the dichotomy between ruling govt and opposition government and exploit the opportunities of partisanship to move the country forward.


All my candidates without exception qualify on this definition.
