Burundi is a perfect example of why we should take this COVID-19 pandemic very serious and have a rethinking of the generalised reopening of schools and other institutions of mass gathering.

Burundi President Nkuruziza : DEAD

His mother : DEAD

His wife and sister: in ICU

Incoming Burundi President : in ICU

Speaker that should be currently acting as president: in ICU

In May when countries were strategizing to prevent COVID-19 spread and its containment, Burundi went into elections...with electioneering campaigns that had no regards for Social and Physical Distancing.

The result is mass burial, mass mourning and intense activities in all ICUs of the Country's Hospitals.

You are free to continue to argue that Covid 19 is a hoax and a scam.

When did all these happen in Burundi?

Was it not the same country their president said they had no COVID-19 cases simply because they have no test kit.

That's a sad one. Nigerian police and gross incompetence are like 5 & 6. They have already concluded on drugs just because they saw a cup. So unprofessional, why don't they wait for autopsy??

Onlinesmart:
[s]I hate it when you talk out of context. You mean APC will just handover power to an igbo man? What's the basis for that? What has the Igbos done to deserve a seat at the presidency? Have you forgotten so quickly all the insults you dish out to other Nigerians that have any contrary opinion to yours? Before I go further how old are you? No insults please, answer me succinctly cos it's only a feable mind that could think in that direction. You must be a kid to think along that line. The 2 major party can never give an igbo man their ticket as that's a grand failure to any party that do that. Grow up to reallty,kiddo. [/s]

It's obvious you're juvenile albeit one with very limited intellect.

You're too ignorant to be engaged in any meaningful debate.

Next intelligent person please!

Enoch07:
big men build houses there, maybe that's one of the reason d governor personal wants the projects completed asap. anyways good job I tell you

Lol, such type of houses exist in almost every neighborhood in Igboland. This is Onitsha we are talking about here not Ibadan

Simeonjoe1:
I see no reason for this thread each region has the right to contest, it can't just be given... So why this thread in the first place

Really!? But it was given to the SW in 1999 or were you still a child then?

Onlinesmart:
There's an evident reason buhari called your tribe 5% and he's not bluffing. You're plain inconsequential in Nigeria. Let's roll the drums come 2023 and see who wins the dancing competition. Only the dumbest of the dumb amongst those major parties gonna hand over their ticket to an igbo man. The hate of many amongst you has dented your image nationally. Power ain't given, it's either you negotiate it or grab it with your influence which you're lacking all thanks to your hate for the whole country.

In 2023, both parties will have no choice but to give their tickets to Igbomen, same way it done for Yorubas in 1999 for peace, equity, justice and fairness to reign. However, if peradventure you guys decide to sabotage it, then you will be handing the presidency to the North on a platter of gold.

NGpatriot:
It is in the interest of the North to cede 2023 to the SW, they know and this is what they are going to do.

OP, you are gravely misguided

Could you please tell us how it is in the interest of the North to cede presidency to a region that has had more than its fair share?

Delusions of grandeur

Gabkosh:
Shut up and stop writing epistle to change narrative. You have been beating chest on numbers that you have. So why digressing. Coward.


Just as Abiola said

Go to hell.

Ogbeni, why are you making mockery of Abiola?

He said we should go to hell abi? But we ended up sending him to hell ourselves

He thought he has arrived but we cut him to size

Muna4real:
Leave them alone. They might be hoping for another VP if tinubu does not win.

Even the VP will elude them because once Tinubu emerges from APC as they are hoping, then PDP will have no choice than to give the ticket to the North who will have Igbo VP.

They are like the proverbial butterfly who thinks he's a bird.

raumdeuter:
In 1999 Ekwueme contested the PDP ticket and lost to OBJ

Jos primaries was a charade. There was a consensus agreement that the presidency should rotate to the SW to compensate them for what happened to Abiola. That was why the system was manipulated for Obasanjo to emerge.

Ask yourself, how on Earth could Obasanjo have won when he just emerged from prison totally broke.

Whobedatte:
Not all of us support Tinubu in yorubaland

Lol, even in the SW, the drug lord is not sure of getting block votes.

The Yoruba Christians would rather vote for a Christian from the SE, SS or North than someone who wouldn't mind to sell them off.

seunmsg:
APC will not microzone its presidential ticket to someone from a region that hates the party the same way PDP refused to microzone its chairmanship ticket to south west. The party will not be blackmailed into giving its ticket to a region that intends never to vote for the party.

APC will zone its ticket to the south and all eligible southerners will contest for the ticket. If an Igbo man wins, I will gladly support him. If an Ikweere man wins, he has my support. However, there will be no microzoning. If you want it, come out and contest for the ticket. Obasanjo contested against Ekwueme in 1999 and 2003. You either contest or stop making noise all over the forum.

If you believe that APC is not under any obligation to cede its ticket to the South East, then same applies to the PDP.

If APC decides to give its ticket to Tinubu against fairness, equity and justice, then PDP can also decide to give its ticket to any Northerner of the choice, then I will see how Tinubu can win.

Throwback:
Even you also consider the SE as insignificant in the scheme of Nigerian affairs.

You cannot stand alone without forcing yourself on the SS and speaking for them?

What a shameless broken backbone.

Don't get it twisted, nature made it so. Igbos have more indigenous population than any other ethnic group in the SS so that's why we naturally align with SS.

No matter how painful that reality is to you, there is nothing you can do about it. We stood with GEJ all through to the end. That's what brothers do while you yorubas found it easy to betray him because you felt you had nothing in common with the SS.

seunmsg:
Once PDP follow suits, your people will abandon the APC candidate and vote for the PDP candidate. So tell me, why should APC give its ticket to an Igbo person since you have no intention of voting for the party? Why should APC commit such a political suicide? You actually think the leaders of APC are foolish or what?

No zone alone can make its candidate win presidential election in Nigeria. Yorubas voted for Olu Falae in 1999 while other Nigerians voted for Obasanjo and OBJ won. Yorubas voted for Awolowo in 1979 and 1983, other Nigerians voted for Shagari on both occasions and Shagari won. NW voted for Buhari in 2003 and 2007, while other Nigerians voted for Obasanjo, and OBJ won. As you can see, it doesn't matter who the Igbos will vote for, what will determine the winner is who majority of Nigerians vote for.

If APC selects Igbo candidate and Yorubas vote for him including northerners and of course some others in SE and SS, then why won't he win?

If both parties bring out Igbo candidates, what will now determine the winner will be who is more popular among Nigerians and not who the Igbos vote for. APC will always have an edge since they are the ruling party but once they go for a yoruba candidate, they will become massively unpopular.

Sammy07:
lol, see how you fail exams.
that means if apc presents Yoruba man, PDP should follow suit and present a Yoruba man?

or if apc presents Hausa, PDP should follow suit and presents Hausa?

lol

You look at issues from a simplistic point of view instead of looking at them critically.

Based on justice, fairness and equity, it is the turn of the Igbos. Now, if the rulling party should endorse that reality, PDP as a party that believes in zoning will have no other choice than to follow suit.

How is that so hard for you to understand?

As far 2023 is concerned, Yorubas are on a wild goose chase. If they can't sacrifice their own inordinate ambition for common good of all then why would they expect the North to do same?

People should reason this critically, it doesn't make sense to say the least.

Sammy07:
You did not answer him.
instead, you turn around to label him afonja.

I'm asking personally.
In 2023 if PDP brings Atiku and Peter Obi again and APC brings a south east man(maybe rochas or Igbokwey), which party will you vote for?

If APC presents an Igboman as its presidential candidate, PDP will have no choice but to follow suit. So, that scenario you projecting cannot occur.

tinsel:
Ezi ngbo ogede.Agboro enweghi ihe ona aru. You think everybody is a tout like you?

Lee nu gi, nwa bingo di ka. Efulefu, ihere megbuo gi ebeahu. Ndi ofe ka ina enye nkwado.

Enyi, imakwadi ihe ma ajuo di gi

Sammy07:
You're yet to answer him

In 2023 if PDP brings Atiku and Peter Obi again and APC brings a south east man(maybe rochas or Igbokwey), which party will you vote for?

I have already answered him. You can scroll up and see my answer.

OfoIgbo:
All you SW almajiris are making me laugh.

Well, listen and listen very well. The SW will not get an iota of support from either the SS or the SE, for betraying the only SS president that the SS has ever produced.

Today, the SW almajiris are confirmed Fulani bitches with Tinubu bowing to Buhari at every opportunity.

2023 will witness a super anti-SW voting strength from the SE and SS. There will be no mercy whatsoever. When you were betraying GEJ, you all were rejoicing with your Fulani masters and threatening to throw Igbos into the Lagoon.

I can't wait for 2023 to arrive man. I so much look forward to the disappointment that will be your portion in that year. You hurt SS, and their SE brothers will join them in hurting you back several folds. Sweet revenge cometh niggaz

Don't mind these serial betrayers. They think SS people are stvpid not to know how they rubbished GEJ but are today worshiping Buhari that is the actual disaster.

Which right thinking person from the South except afonjas would vote for a character like Tinubu?

They will receive the shock of their lives by 2023.

tinsel:
Nenu obele nwaa. Umuaka dika unu bu nsogbu anyi nenwe. I am sure you dont even understand igbo. Raised and grew in lagos and causing troubles for the igbos everywhere.

Joe Igbokwe is that you? Iwu ezigbo ezi ohia!
Ndi efulefu di ka gi Wu ndi n'ebutere anyi ogbachi n'ala Igbo.

We had Ukpabi Asika and still have Joe Igbokwe. In every 12 there will be a Judas so it's nothing new.

richie240:
Very few reason like u.
They'd rather tow d hate lane of KANU dn reason with logic.
I won't be surprised if one of them label u 'efulefu'.

That dude you quoted is an afonja like you. You should be smart enough to detect your brothers when you see one.

tinsel:
And OP i will like to ask you a straight question and please be honest while answering.
In 2023 if PDP brings Atiku and Peter Obi again and APC brings a south east man, which party will you vote for?

Firstly, stop saying you're from the East because I can smell afonja all over you.

Secondly, once APC gives its ticket to an Igboman, the PDP will have no choice but to follow suit.

Nigeria's stability right now would depend on who emerges president in 2023.

Throwback:
What manner of political ignoramus is this dude?

So the North who were handing over from military rule since ruling from 1979 (20yrs uninterrupted), chose to take an obvious rest, and let the South slug it out.

Did Alex Ekwueme, Don Etiebet, Alabo Graham Douglas and others not contest for the PDP presidential ticket for the 1999 election?

Are those politicians not from SouthEast and SouthSouth?

Did Alex Ekwueme not contest for the 2003 PDP ticket, and lost again to Obasanjo?

So, even the PDP ticket for 2023 will be contested by the SouthWest.

You think you're smart abi, but apparently you're not!

You said the North had ruled for about 20 years and that was why they allowed the presidency to go South without contesting. Now, what do you say about Yorubas that have ruled for 8 years as president and another 8 years as vice since the last 20 years? Is it your birth right?

What is the justification in asking another person not to contest because he has ruled enough when you yourself have ruled for same number of years?

Nigeria seats on a tripod. The North has ruled, the West has ruled, now is the turn of the East to rule. However, if out of greed the West insists on ruling again then why ask another person not to rule?

Why are you people like this? Tufiakwa!

Tap0lane:
Lol. A northerner will not succeed Buhari, u n your father can take that to the bank n hell if u like.

They can, and they will if SW allows greed to becloud their sense of reasoning, and you know what? You can't do anything about it!

tunderay:
And someone sit and write this nonsense. Tell me how SW betrayed south in 2015? Was there any form of understanding to vote for GEJ?

If you want to write anything , think before you do .

You are obviously ignorant and uninformed. The SW betrayed GEJ in 2015 through peddling lies, propaganda and smear campaign against him. Whatever was GEJ's shortcomings, Buhari has done worse yet you all have gone radio silent. That's betrayal.

It all depends. In 2023 it is either the presidency goes to the SE or the North continues from where Buhari stopped.

History555:
Every region should present a candidate and let the voters decide. No need for arguments

Why didn't every region present a candidate in 1999? Or you think the Northerners were not interested then? Or you think Obasanjo who was in prison could just come out and win?

The Yorubas where allowed to win in 1999 just to pacify the region. Every other region supported them, same way every other region should support the Igbos in 2023 for peace, stability and progress to reign.

Tap0lane:
How a tribe can be populated with high degree of foolish souls as prevalent among the lost jews from hell is astonishing. So for your mind now Igbo think they can blackmail the Yoruba from 2023 Presidential election in Nigeria ?

I must have hit a nerve, just look at how angry and bitter you all are in this thread because you can't face the bitter truth.

If you believe that Yorubas have a right to be president after ruling for 8 years and another 8 years as vice, then what stops a northerner from succeeding Buhari?

He who must come to equity must come with clean hands

funshint:
Northern votes will be largely determined by who Buhari decides to support.

You still believe that Buhari is still who he used to be in the north?

The same Buhari they stoned in Maiduguiri and burned his posters and billboards in his home state of Katsina??

Whiteangel1234:
we will support a Hausa - Fulani presidency in 2023 if PDP and APC failed to Zone the presidential ticket to Igbo of SESS

That is just it, we will even reject PDP candidacy if APC refuses to do the right thing by giving the ticket to an Igbo man.

In 1999, Nigerians endured that Yorubas emerged from both parties just to pacify them over Abiola. Now, based on justice, fairness and equity, it is the Igbo turn in 2023 but if the Yorubas should sabotage it out of selfishness then nothing stops the north from continuing where Buhari stopped.

SW does not have any right to it more than the north.

funshint:
Go and look at the 1992 election state by state; you'll know that some northern states can vote against their own sometimes.

Nigeria has changed a lot since the last couple of decades.

The north will allow Tinubu to emerge from APC then throw in their support to the northern candidate that will emerge from PDP.

They did it against GEJ when even his own party members campaigned and voted against him in favour of Buhari.

If you believe northerners whether in APC or any other party will vote for Tinubu then you're dreaming.

They are only using him and tolerating his presence, the moment he outlives his usefulness as would happen by 2023, they will discard him like a piece of rubbish.
