Ordinarily, a stakeholders’ meeting involving aspirants for the House of Representatives and the Senate should be peaceful, organized, and focused on unity. Yet, what played out turned into a complete tug of war in FCT.

The Chairman of the Electoral Committee responsible for conducting the ADC primaries in the FCT convened a stakeholders’ meeting involving House of Representatives aspirants, Senatorial aspirants, and party leaders, including the sitting Senator, to witness the distribution of sensitive electoral materials.

If an ordinary party primary could descend into such disorder, tension, and confusion, are these truly the people Nigerians should trust with the leadership and future of the nation?

Nigeria is Tinubu.

Does Delta central poll 100,000 votes during general elections?

Someone is curing your ignorance

I don't want to laugh 😂. But people are very wicked oo upon all the things Ned Nwoko did for Delta North, this is how they will repay him. This is unfair and a total display of wickedness..

This is commendable of APC. I think dis new electoral law by Tinubu will help to bring sanity to our politicians.

Yes, that is the basis of friction in many of Nigeria political parties, non-adherence to the party's constitution. Someone will join today and will want to become the party's chairman on that same day. Is that not preposterous? What happens to those who have been grooming the party for long? If you think you are popular, why are you afraid of going through competition?
Thanks Mr chairman because you stood for what was right.

Nigeria is at a crossroads once again. The storm clouds are gathering, and if the nation refuses to act decisively and justly, a second civil war may be inevitable. The exclusion of the South East — the homeland of the Igbo people — from the highest office in the land is pushing Nigeria to the brink. If the Igbo are denied the presidency in 2027, the consequences could be catastrophic. Not just politically, but existentially.


The scars of the 1967–1970 Biafra War have never truly healed. Over 3 million Igbos were killed in a war triggered largely by marginalization, ethnic violence, and the fight for justice and inclusion. Yet, 54 years later, the Igbo people have still never been allowed to produce a democratically elected president of Nigeria.

Despite being one of the three major ethnic groups in the country — alongside the Hausa-Fulani and the Yoruba — the Igbos remain politically sidelined at the national level.

Yoruba presidency: 1999–2007 (Olusegun Obasanjo)

Hausa-Fulani presidency: 2007–2023 (Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, Muhammadu Buhari)

South-South (Ijaw): 2010–2015 (Goodluck Jonathan)

South East (Igbo): Never


This systematic exclusion is not just unjust — it is unsustainable.

The South East may be the smallest of Nigeria’s six geopolitical zones by land mass, but the Igbo people are one of the most widely spread, industrious, and economically impactful ethnic groups in Nigeria.

Igbos control over 60% of Nigeria’s informal trade and business in major cities — Lagos, Kano, Abuja, and beyond.

The region has some of the highest literacy and school enrollment rates in the country.

Igbo Nigerians lead in the diaspora, sending billions in remittances annually and promoting Nigeria’s image globally.

It is politically dangerous and morally indefensible to keep such a group excluded from the presidency while expecting peace and unity.


The rise of pro-Biafra separatist movements like IPOB is not random — it is a direct reaction to decades of marginalization. When a people feel unheard and unwanted, they seek to leave. IPOB, MASSOB, and others have gained traction because the Nigerian state continues to treat the South East as second-class citizens.

Denying the region the presidency in 2027 will radicalize millions of young Igbos already disillusioned with the country. This will turn agitation into full-blown rebellion. And this time, it won’t just be a political crisis — it could be an armed insurrection.


A nation cannot survive when it is built on selective inclusion. You cannot call for unity while promoting exclusion. Every region in Nigeria must have a sense of belonging. Every major ethnic group must see itself represented in the highest office.

Zoning and rotation have been used to maintain balance — North and South taking turns.

The North has ruled for 14 of the last 24 years.

The South West and South South have had their turns.

It is only just that the South East should take its rightful place in 2027.


If zoning is abandoned now that it's the South East’s turn, it will be seen — rightly — as a deliberate strategy to keep Igbos perpetually excluded. That perception will destroy whatever fragile unity still exists in Nigeria.


Nigeria’s youth — more than 60% of the population — are not blind to ethnic injustice. Many young people from all over Nigeria supported Peter Obi, an Igbo man, in the 2023 election, seeing him as a symbol of hope and change. Despite not winning, the message was clear: the South East has national appeal and leadership capacity.

To deny the region in 2027 is to betray a generation looking for fairness. Youth anger in the South East, if left to boil over, will not be limited to protests. It could evolve into an uncontainable security nightmare for Nigeria.

The first civil war was fought with limited weapons and international awareness. A second civil war will be fought in a 21st-century Nigeria filled with armed non-state actors, widespread internet activism, drone technology, and porous borders. A war today will not stay in the East. It will burn across Nigeria and likely draw in foreign interests.

It is better to give justice and preserve peace than to suppress justice and ignite war.


2027 is a moral test for Nigeria. If equity, justice, and national cohesion still matter, the Igbo people must produce the next president. This is not a threat — it is a warning grounded in history, current reality, and future consequence.

To continue to exclude the Igbos is to choose the path of instability, chaos, and perhaps disintegration.

Let us not wait for another war to realize what could have been prevented with wisdom.

See your life. Your Igbo brothers and sisters are denying your igboish.

Election that Tinubu rigged

Who cares? If you have decided to swim in an ocean of delusions.....

Now they will come out and blame Tinubu for their irresponsible acts

Misinformation peddlers must be cautioned because their actions threaten public trust, national security, and social harmony.

nairavsdollars:
Tinubu can only be reelected if the northerners won't vote.

We don't talk too much. The results shall speak in 2027. Please I don't want to argue with myopic minds

AMINDA:
Typical. Nothing surprising. Do you also have regard for Obi than you do for Sanwo-olu, Gbajabiamila, Fashola, Obasa and Tinubu himself? Because they couldn't deliver Lagos despite Tinubu being on the ballot. Tinubu only won 3 states in the entire North, yet, he got the highest margin of votes from the region. The hardwork done was not in "delivering" a state. Tinubu couldn't do that for himself. He was able to garner the votes he did in the North due to messaging from the likes of Elrufai like the below. But as expected, he was repaid with treachery and betrayal. No worries, Ganduje will deliver the North to Tinubu come 2027.

MAJOR THROWBACK!

You are always sounding frustrated but 2027 presidential election results will bring you to reality. Because sometimes I don't really understand the North you are always talking about. Now, it is good and great that kwankwaso, tambuwal, El-rufai are together with Atiku. Let's see how much important they are among their Fulani and Hausa people...

AMINDA:
Let's do a simple logical mathematics, Atiku got 7m votes in 2023 at a time when a substantial number of Northern electorates, thanks to Elrufai, agreed that power should head South. This led to 5.6m Northerners voting Tinubu. Fastforward to 2027, with Elrufai under persecution and the performance of Tinubu, a substantial amount of these 5.6m voters will no longer be voting Tinubu. It's a no-brainer that most will now vote Atiku. Atiku will only need marginal votes in the South to be home and dry if he clinches the ticket. In other words, Atiku has barely lost a voter who voted him in 2023 but even if he has in some Southern states like Akwa Ibom, Osun and Bayelsa, he has potentially gained more from Northerners who voted Tinubu in 2023.

In contrast, Tinubu has encroached into Obi's base in the NC, SS and SW. Even though he remains unpopular across board. It is clear that he has not gained enough to make up for his lost Northern votes because he has failed to consolidate the Southern electorates genuinely, except getting their elites to his side. Obi has also lost some ground if we are being honest but he remains the undisputed owner of the South if he's on the ballot but he may not pull enough numbers or find enough radicalism to protect his votes in the South. Plus, unlike in 2023, not many outside the SE will be inclined to go vote Obi again just to prove a point if nothing changes.

An Atiku/Obi ticket remains the strongest combination till date. There are also talks about the NDC courting Jonathan to throw his heart in the ring. This further complicates things for Obi and Tinubu.

How many number of votes could El-rufai garner for Ahmed Tinubu in 2023 presidential election. I even have regard for Ganduje during the last presidential election than El-rufai that has been decimated.....

Those that defected to APC it's because of their self interest not of the people..buh they will be saying it's because the president have a good plan for the country that's why they are joining the rulling party..why the negotiations if it's truely the president is working

Yes, those that defected to Adc have the interest of the masses at heart. They are going to be phenomenal and make fantastic decisions that will catapult Nigeria economic to how it was before 1960...... Dey play

I hmmmmmmmm

MatrixReloaded:
It will be a thing of shame for Nigerians home and abroad to note that no sitting president of any country have visited Nigeria for any diplomatic relations. As a time like this in our country where we need more engagement of foreign sitting presidents. It's a shame that we let an Agbero from Mushin to take up the helm of affairs of our daring nation.
History will not repeat itself.

All were inauguration and after that everyone japada.

If I may ask, who are the "we"? Where are you from?

Every rational human being knows that it is the turn of yewa people to produce the next governor of Ogun state. And yewa aren't going beg for it but slug it out......

humberjade:
Here we go again! 😅 Who cares about the kingdoms. It is when people want to be mischievous that they will start highlighting the difference between Iru woro and Iru pete, whereas, we all know they belong to the same source. When it is the turn of any District, they can zone it to any of their sons or daughters, ko kan aye. But what nobody will do is arm-twist other zones to fit into their selfish agenda. Enough of this zoning nonsense. Out of 28 years, you've had 12 years, East 16, West 0, yet, it is your turn again? Jokers.

Like you guys will always say, the Ogun Governorship is not a gift, you have to fight for it. So we Westeners won't beg for it again, no more the marginalisation cry, or the scream of the "Yewa lokan" slogan. Let's go to the field and slug it out.

If it is not greed, out of the four Ministers from Ogun State, you have three. Out of the 2 ambassadorial nominees from ogun state, you have both. Still, you are laying claims to the Governorship slot in the next political dispensation as if it is kingship.

Las las, everybody go dey alright.

We are behind yewa people. Let us slug it out if egba think they have what it takes to win yewa dis time around in yayi.....
