You are igbo - a major language in Nigeria.
And you are asking which language to learn?

I am igbo, but some of the most stupid people I have seen in my life are igbo.

A Yoruba can never ask a question like this.

If he wants to run, I will support him as an igbo.

He has every right to run under the apc.

Achilles100:
Why does For The People just like cutting onions in every episode in this season?

Please, I need to save some tears.

I dey tell you.

I shed tears in every episode.

The writers dey try.

If properly documented especially in Lagos and the North, you would be surprised to know that nearly a quarter of the people in Nigeria are immigrants from west and central Africa, competing with us for jobs and other national resources.

atiku4President:
Maybe from the region in Nigeria that 'produces' political power.

I laughed so hard when I read this.
Produce political power.

I hear it is like gambling.

Because you may be unfortunate to buy inferior grades of wears.

Where is kadara Ahmed to call El rufai useless.

Abokii clown.

Why am I even crying more than the bereaved?
It is their problem.

NOETHNICITY:
See them,

Food don done for them

Alws waiting on the side line for the next bad news so they can ve somethin to wail about to remind us that buhari is a bad choice

But tomoro if an attacker strikes in USA or France, ilks like them Will be the first to condole with the government of such country.

We know ur tricks

You Will wail till 2023 and beyond

People are dying. Most of whom voted buhari.
And your concern is that somebody is wailing.

Are you human?

Pikin wey dey just born don travel out.

Oh lord, what am I still doing in Nigeria?

Sanchez01:
Were you born yesterday? The last time power shifted to the South, it was a South South clueless drunk from Bayelsa who called the shots and shut out a part of the South while he favoured another part of the South, LEAVING HIS OWN REGION TO SUFFER!

Why should power return to a part of the South it left just recently? Anyone who wants it the most works for it. If you think the demands of one lapdog called Ohaneze or IPOB would see others drop powers on the laps of the Igbos then you need to think again. Any part of the South can gun for the position, it depends on who enjoys the best of alliance. This is Azikiwe 101,by the way.

Any southerner can come out for president, just as it is not a must for the rest of the south to vote for you.

You can run, but as long as you know you are running alone.

Azikiwe was never alone.

oyatz:
Yoruba is an ethnic group.

The North is a Geographical region consisting of 19 States with over 150 ethnic groups.

A Southerner is also not an ethnic Identity.

Compare likes with likes.

The north is usually politically monotonous, while the south is not.

Yoruba are politically on their own in the south.
So I am being realistic.

Up Chelsea.

Top 4 coming.

The guy did not even recognise non Yoruba voters in places like Lagos on his table.

As far as he is concerned they are all Yoruba votes.

And yet pdp won the south in 2015 and 2019.

Buhari had to rally in his own north to claim victory.

MetaPhysical:
The bold is not true. What does the North have that you do not?

You Ibos see government from one perspective only - the man at the top, the ruler! You fail to acknowledge like the Yorubas do that even from an opposition role a ruling government can be brought to its knees and forced into compromise to progress society.

If Christian North was that relevant for you why did your delegates from East pick muslim Atiku over christian Makarfi at the PortHarcourt primaries?

You have to ally with somebody to make progress in life. No individual is self-sufficient. No region is either. Today North is your enemy, tomorrow West is your enemy, next day South is your enemy. When are you going to make friends?

You make me laugh with your responses.

See jolly just come teaching us how to politics.
I guess politics started in 2015.

So not voting apc means fighting with the north?
Then atiku must be from Mars.
Even if we will never vote a Yoruba candidate ever again , which is very likely, doesn't mean we won't vote a northerner.

Besides, how exactly does Yoruba dominate the south?

The last time I checked atiku and obi won the south overwhelmingly.

Or which other south is there?

Any way, Good story. Keep deceiving yourself while 2023 comes.

eagleeye2:
Kadira, I like the way you shifted the security blame to the Governor, instead of the president.

A con woman.
I still laugh at the fact that she actually did an interview of presidential aspirants.

She wants to be the Nigerian Christine amanpour but with less than half the talent and credibility.

1stola:


Apart from all the fools that have been governing Kogi state since independence, the east, south east and south south has the worst of governors ever!

Forget all this chest beaters online, when you travel to the east and south south, you will weep for them. They are like 20 years behind compares to what we have in Lagos, ogún, Ọ̀yọ́ etc.

I wonder what there useless governors use all the fed allocations given to them to do.
A typical example is T.A orji of Abia. That useless old fool is supposed to be jailed for life.
The reigning Idìot now is Yahya Bello of kogi.

You are pained at the two regions that does not support your criminal party.

I have been to oyo, osun, ogun, Lagos, ekiti.

Apart from Lagos, Those were places, I saw real under development both in finance and thought.

Hopelessness in the air on the faces of old and young.

Poverty dey this country, abeg.

.

iberrylee:
Igbo have no business with school let them focus on their trading, leave school business for the west

Igbos have left you people in the dust that your fore fathers kept you.

You better go and sell agbo.

Awolowo is no longer living since over 30 years ago.

ogawisdom:
Useless reps

Who gave them the power to summon or arrest a chancellor of a school

Father Ede just give the whole committee blindness at once

The school can never die bc they run all professional courses and are fully accreditated by National universities commission

Who gave the house of REPRESENTATIVES ,powers to arrest?

The Nigerian people did.

Olodo.

So upon all the new manager hype, united are still in the position mourinho left them?

Onijagidijagan:
You dey madt who tell u PDP is free for Hausa Fulani? The southerners will participate and Yoruba will contest and win the Pdp presidential primaries

lol

..

Tinubu and El rufai are not generally acceptable.

It doesn't stop both of them from wanting to be president.

kayfra:
You don't become a SAN with an empty brain and no balls. Both are SANs

Keyamo is a SAN.
Sorry, if I don't accord that title with so much respect.

Even buhari himself is not generally acceptable.

The most controversial president since 1999.

Unik3030:
do u realize there is something called general acceptability? all those u mentioned as igbo strong men, aside from the east, which other place do people know them? what is their relationship with men from other tribes? I pray pdp fields an igbo man n let's see how they will die a natural death. but d last time I checked u people have apga now, y don't u develop it to a national party like tinubu developed acn to apc? y must it b pdp n apc? if u are as strong as claimed test your strength with apga cos I know pdp will not b that stupid to give igbo ticket cos it means automatic win for the other party. u have to swallow the bitter pill n accept d fact that no igbo person dead or alive is marketable in Nigeria election.

Peter obi is more acceptable than any Yoruba man I can think.

He boosted atiku credibility immeasurably, even though atiku himself has a lot of baggage.
And the campaign and the debate where he publicly destroyed osibanjo , has also helped in selling him for the future.
Gov umahi is also well known as a buhari loyalist, and a good governor.

They may not be acceptable in ogun or ogbomoso, but it doesn't matter.
Other Nigerians will accept them.

Onijagidijagan:
Sit down and watch but make sure you vote your masters but Yoruba people will contest in 2023 and in 2027

Nobody is stopping you from contesting.

Go and win the primaries in apc first, because the pdp is a Yoruba free zone.

And then if you win the primaries, then come and convince the rest of us fools to vote your yeye candidate.

Unik3030:
so u mean apc will field an igbo man despite how much u hate apc? or pdp will field an igbo man? what u don't know is that d sw is closer to power than se. do u have any strong n popular politician in se? don't mention rochas n orji oooo. nobody takes power by blackmailing others. I pray apc or pdp field an igbo person as their presidential flag bearer n see how they will loose easily. don't u know an igbo VP even reduced atiku vote in the north? there are some places where atiku didn't put Peter obi picture because an average Hausa man sees an igbo man as d same as nnamdi kanu n so far igbos still follows nnamdi kanu agenda they will never amount to nothing in d political circus of Nigeria

The next pdp southern presidential candidate is going to be igbo.
There is no question about that.

What I am concerned about is claiming that we have no strong men.

Who was osibanjo before he became vice president?

The likes of Peter obi, osita chidoka, Gov Umahi and Co are not strongmen, right?

It is fashola and the lying pastor that are strongmen?

Continue to dey deceive yourself.

Onijagidijagan:
This is the only sensible comment have seen from an Igbo.
Do u know if it was an Igbo candidate that contested against Buhari, the vote percentage wud favor the South.
But an average Igbo only believe they cannot do anything without the help of a northerners...But Yorubas believe we can defeat the Northerners in a credible election.

If the yorubas vote their own and the North vote their own, how will you defeat the North?

If the election is very credible, the margin of defeat would be unprecedented.

It took the North defeating a southerner for tinubu to gain relevance.

That trick is still in play and can be replicated.

MetaPhysical:
We marked your words in 2015 that Yoruba will never be VP. Osinbajo became VP....and your words collapsed!

We marked your words when you said in 2017 that Tinubu's political career is finished and El Rufai is the new boss. Few months later we saw El Rufai visiting Bourdillon and bowing to greet Tinubu. Your words collapsed!

We marked your words when you said Buhari is going back to Daura in 2019 and Yoruba will suffer the consequence of outing GEJ. Buhari won election and Yoruba remains part and parcel of the party and administration. Your words collapsed!

Mr man, your words lack virtue.

All those is not yet equivalent to 16 years of wilderness.

The only thing common in all those scenarios you listed is buhari.

He is the master.

Without him, opposition politics is your collective destiny.

I honestly hope the pdp can poll its resources together towards a south eastern president.
That is the only option in 2023 for a sustainable nationhood.

A credible south easterner and a popular northerner should do the trick.

The south is in our kitty already. The North is where the battle would be.

And with buhari leaving the scene, the northern space becomes a bit more dynamic.

This woman is a diabolical fraud.

How many protests did she lead against shettima and El rufai?

Useless aboki fraud.

seunmsg:
Angry iPobs wailing all over the thread as usual. Una go wail tire.

We will know who is wailing when the time comes.
