I dare you Igbos again. tell us EXACTLY why you hate Rochas and Ngigie who would have both ensured that they brought Ndigbo to the front seat. WHY? Apart from Rochas which other Igbo man can you boast of having Presidential appeal from PDP, APGA, or APC or whichever party. If you have no answers to that can you just hold your peace for once and give us some breathing space already? Please?

Miss NL that happened years ago. I will not rest again? Why must I be constantly reminded that I participated in that thing na? So I cannot be an activist and a former beauty contestant again?

melzabull:
And any region that doesn't produce senate president cannot produce a president? lmao.

When the SE had the senate presidency did that stop the north from having their fair share of political appointees? You are still sounding st√pid but deluding yourself into thinking you are making sense and you here talking about m intelligence. what an ijiottt.

Such a pity

Please mention just one Igbo man apart from Rochas that can even dream of being a President. Just one. I'm still patiently waiting.

Pangea:
You get time replying the uncouth ijjiots?
As they say "Never argue with fools, people might not know the difference! "

Next time,
Just jump and pass!

Good advice. But sometimes, I'm tired of seeing them all over the place. Pesin no fit go social media again? They are everywhere! Opening threads everywhere. Poisoning all threads with their "Buhari Daura President" chants. Why? Just because an Ijaw man lost elections? Something has to be done to tone down their irritating noise just a little bit. Haba!

melzabull:
If you weren't daft and dumb, you would know that the two men you mentioned don't hold any political appointment. We are talking about equal representation in political appointments and projects and this one is talking about Rocha's. truly you are dumb...mtchewww

Lol. Please which one is more prestigious, having Igbo ministers, and service chiefs or having a senate president and even a Presidential material? Do you realize that having an Igbo senate president would have further facilitated Igbo appointments? Naaa. You are too filled with tribal and everybody-hates-me sentiments to realize that simple fact! But however I will be patient enough to wait for you to go find an honest intelligent answer, if you can.

melzabull:
no one gives a rat arsse about your reservations on igbo politics cos you and your opinion are inconsequential.

The SS isn't a tribe, its a tribally heterogeneous zone, but the SE zone is a homogenous region, why exclude a zone completely from governance? and you expect them to clap for you? You ask what my problem is, if you weren't filled with unfounded hatred you would have long identified why Igbo are vociferous against a most insensitive government. If you missed it, there you go

Again, I ask you and other pathetic hate filled numbskulls, who is afraid of equity, fairness and justice??

I asked you a simple question about equity and fairness but you shamelessly dodged it. Why the hell do you hate the only nationally appealing Igbos you can boast of? If you have no intelligent answers for that and if you don't give a rat ass then stop crying and wailing all over the gaddem place like a tormented baby in the middle of the night dammit! Enough!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ngokafor:
...I thought i was the only one who noticed her shenanigans,prancing all over Igbos threads like a slvt looking for clients..

..not surprised though,learnt the loser lost out to an Igbo girl after she contested for miss Nairaland .I guess she is yet to forgive Igbos whom iam sure she blamed for her loss..only for her to start crying about having 'real men and real compliments'...what a clown

This Miss NL thing again? Chai! You guys need help. If the only sense you can gather from all my political analyzing in this forum for the past 4 years now is Miss NL that I unfortunately contested in 3 years ago, then it means you guys are much more politically slow that I have given you credit for. You need Jesus to come and die for you all over again. Sorry, low self-esteemed things.

melzabull:
Igbos know what they want as far as politics is concerned you despicable fool. Equity! Fairness! Justice! Equal representation! Is that too much to ask for? ijiotttt

Why the lopsidedness, marginalization and deliberate neglect? Did GEJ overlook any region that didn't give him much votes? you are a disgrace to your family

despicable fool!

If you really know what you want, if you really want fairness equality and representation (assuming you knew what those words mean) why hate Rochas and Ngigie so much, Igbo men that would have easily pushed Ndigbo to the front burner of National politics because of their national appeal. Does it make sense in your own ears/eyes?

melzabull:
As expected, you will be here opening your dirty, smelly mouth as long as it concerns igbos. During GEJs presidency, even the north that gave him less votes had better representation in terms of appointment. His NSA, CSO, defense minister were all northerners. He entrusted in people who didn't even give him much vote. What is wrong in asking to be treated equally?

You shouldn't only be fed up, you should also choke to death. useless thing

I don't know if you realize this but there are actually more northerners in the army. And hey, most of Jonathan's key appointments were from SE and SS. So please.........
It's good most of you now know my moniker now for having reservations for Igbo politics. Maybe this will make you go and ask yourselves why and re-strategize. For Christ's sake the SS are not as bothered as you are what is your own problem? What exactly?

chedet:
How about North West that voted exclusively for Buhari in 2011, were they reminded everyday that they must be in opposition or they are 5%?

If as you claim that South West votes personality, I'm guessing you didn't know those who contested 2011 election and how the SW voted. What changed? or did Jonathan had superior personality than Buhari in 2011 that SW voted overwhelmly for the PDP?

Democracy is a game of choice and nobody should be punished for freely having a choice. You cannot say that a geopolitical zone is opposition, saying that, as Joe Igbokwe is alluding to, is to give credence to the perception by SE that they will be excluded in this government.

You may rejoice today because it is SE, we don't know the future. We may move into a president who will be responsible to only his political zone.

But I didn't see them crying and screaming everyday about the whole world hating them. The reason why people like me are beginning to get fed up of the SE political strategies is because of the way they are handling defeat. Like spoilt babies. Even to the extent of crying more than the SS. Haba! Ogini?

Mynd44:
As much as there are some salient points in this, I can also notice some background sentiments to diss the Igbo tribe and that is not right. Lets face it, the SE and SS are not the only people who voted almost exclusively for one perso, most of the North (West and East) did the same and the difference is that the North paid off.

We need to get off our differences and realize that the SE and SS felt like supporting President Jonathan was the best for them and they should be respected for that. The NE and NW felt President Buhari was better and they voted.
The NC and SW was actually torn between both

That is the beauty of Democracy; you vote the person you think is the best candidate and hope that others see your point, look at things from your eyes and the wishes of those that voted should be respected.

If the SE voted for President Jonathan and he lost, why should they not try to have representatives in the APC even if it not about offices but a genuine way to let the government know their needs and complaints? If anyone wants to Famz a party or the Nation's leadership, they know what they stand to gain and while you might think it is them being afraid of being starved of funds (projects and the likes), they have every right to be worried for the sake of their region and themselves.

I don't like the tone of this article as it does not do much but try to tell people "you lost, live in your loss". We all want to make Nigeria better and we should all try to do that.

My Igbokwe mentioned that the SE has been in the opposition for a long while but I also hope that he knows that in the past 16 years, the SW was not at any point exclusively in the opposition. It still had a lot of people in the federal government and the governing party to ensure that they could get attention. Only the leaders of the AD/ACN/AC/APC were in the opposition.

The point is not the voting pattern. That's NOT the issue. The issue is how they are playing the opposition role. The issue is how over melodramatic they get when they don't get their way even though most times they seem not to really know what exactly they want as far as politics is concerned. The issue is their political strategies which is now slowly even the SS away from them. That's the point of the write-up.

ohzee:
Read my earlier posts. I said I hope the motives are as good as they were then.

I have seen your more mature responses as you're now talking like someone your age because your first comments were very biased and accusing. You may not realize it but it is.

ba7man:
All this display because GEJ lost......... even the Niger delta people that he's from did'nt kiss his @rse like that.

I taya o!

@op. You are not being entirely truthful because you did not liten to Buhari's full words. He also added that he has no choice but to evenly distribute government benefits everywhere because of the constitution.

As for Igbos not caring about appointments. Really? So why do they keep crying and wailing and tearing their clothes apart whenever they see a non SE appointment?

omenka:
The source isn't credible. We are Progressives and we care a world about the credibility of news sources. Let us leave these unknown and unpopular sites which are staple to Wailers for Wailers.

Lol. True. Although PDP rigged the figures as usual, they still won.

mzmeeday:
firstly i must say your more than 5%, ur nigerian.
But to be sincere you know before the recent emergence of private muslim schools, we were all taught CRS at school, we learnt SOP verse after verse on assembly ground, said The Grace verse together , irrespective of our religious differences, nobody ever complained even in public primary schools only crs was taught . so whats the big deal with what mr president is offering, i learnt the way of christians as a muslim for years, never complained, it doesnt change my faith instead it enlightened me , that we all serve one God.
if you are opposing this then you are promoting religious differences in nigeria, is that the way forward, because BH is painting islam back does it make it black.
Dont you want to know the truth, will you just live your life by what your hear only, it doesnt change your faith in anyway, and if it does Alhamdullilah you are still on the right path.
pls this reply is not intended to raise an argument, i belv you re learned enough to know its my opinion, what ever you belv still stands.
Nigeria is fo both muslims and christians, learn my way , i learn your way ,if we must be one it begins from paces like this.

Really sometimes I pity you Muslims. I don't know why I'm so sympathetic, maybe because I served in Kaduna and I once carried out an assignment in a core Muslim area. I got to see that Northerners, Muslims are just as human as Christians. It's just some selfish elites that are driving this wedge between us. All over the world Islamic terrorists are sponsored by rich psychos seeking world power using Islam. Quite sad.

brooklyn49:
Em from SS

I know a few of us from the SS are cry babies as well. But the main ones are from the SE.

brooklyn49:
Young man listen!
SE isn't an ethnic group like u claim
Rather its a geopolitical zone
We have six (6) geopolitical zones in Nigeria.. SS,SE,SW,NC,NW,NE..let's assume north are represented in the arrangement, where is south
The kind of illiterate kind of support n analyst u guys display here sometimes make me want to deactivate my account n move on..to even start NO prominent water is found in north that could act like a plus fr the lopsided appointment..I rili pray this government end well.

Even at that. Do you see other tribes cry everyday like SE? Even the SS that is part of the 5% do they cry at the drop of hat Na only una waka come?

omenka:
Op get a life. "The only SE person" my brown eyes. Are the SE the only people in this country?? There are over 20 tribes in this country, how many of them are represented there?? How many of them do you see or hear complaining everyday as you do??

You people are so irritating with all these SE nonsense. Great minds from the same SE, probably your peers, are busy building business empires all across the country and outside the country and all you miserable sods do is wail about political appointments that would add nothing whatsoever to your personal lives.

Most of you are just simply too daft.

over 20 tribes or over 200 tribes?

Come to think of it..............
I'm beginning to think that making both Muslims and Christians study both religious studies will go a long way in repairing the steep and dangerous religious gap in the country and will be most especially useful up north.
Bravo!

Snipes009:
I'm a muslim and I remember how i studied CRK in a Federal School too. I still remember "Our Father, who hath in heaven.....", John 3:16 and co. So what is your fuckin' point? I'm amazed how most Nigerians can't really use their brains, including you.

Oh ok. So it's true both religions were compulsory then

@Ohzee what EXACTLY is your problem if Muslims were made to recite Christian prayers as well?

ohzee:
Don't be deceived bro. It will be compulsory. History simply repeating itself. I studied IRK and Arabic in a Federal School in Js1. They claimed they were uniting Xtians and Muslims. It was scrapped by 1986.

I don't know if there is any other motive. I sincerely hope not. I still remember the Aranic alphabet aliph, ba, ta, sa etc. I remember writing from right to left in my notebook.

1986 You must be an old woman! But be sincere ma. You claim they made it compulsory (though I've never read of that in history) what part of the country did you school? Did they also try to force you to go to the mosque or try to islamize Nigeria as a whole.
Kindly answer as truthfully as you can.

lomprico:
Direct that ur first question to urself, you hear. Am not a fan of jonathan, he is a christian and have all the right to visit any church he wants even if he wants to go to mosque its allowed afterall OBJ prayed in mosqued when he was a president. Did u hear or see anyone condemning buhari for visiting a mosque?? You are d one being negative, I asked a simple question and if u dont knw d answer simply ignore it. Dont go around barking like a rabid dog!

Did you ask if I heard or saw anyone complianing that Buhari went to a mosque Like seriously! Like you guys don't go gaga at the sound of anything Islamic!
Can you solemnly swear that if Jonathan had recommended a Christian book to students that you would have been asking these same question?
You and your likes are pathetic and I'm not in the position to help you. Good evening.

lomprico:
Why shld buhari be the one to recommend it? What happened to the islamic scholars in education ministry?

WTF is wrong with you? Why are you so damn negative?! When Jonathan was visiting different churches every sunday why didn't you see anything wrong with it?

lomprico:
IRS (islamic religious studies) and CRS (christian religious studies) has long been in our education curriculum. So mr man which one is religious education and why is he enforcing it on all FGCs? You cant introduce what already exists n is working unless there is more to it.

He means books to be added to the existing IRS curriculum. Gerrit?

I just knew some fake ass Christians will add salt and pepper inside this news.
Awon oloshi and anuofia!

These hairstyles are strictly for the runway.

Ayus34:
So can u please tell me of any state in middle belt that is economically better than oyo, not to mention lagos, because I don't know ur point of economic?
All middle belt States are economically dead due to poor leadership, the region that produce the worst governors in d country, from kogi to jos, nothing to write about them..... And mind you talking about Abuja it is a pure civil service States where that add nothing to the got purse interms of internal generated revenue due to low real business activities.. .. go and check the Nigeria bureau statistics and see the rating of the North central in terms of economy activities to enlighten ur self and be proper informed, the worst region in the whole south is better than middle belt economically so what are you now saying?

Na wa o. Some people's comprehension skills are just too poor. Where do I start explaining now?

But I'm sure you saw where I said that NO REGION is strong enough to stand alone. Meaning that although the SW is politically mature (to an extent) they still need a lot of work to be done socially and economically just like other regions.

soe:
lol...see who talks about getting facts right...you love to sound like you are in the know ... Sorry to burst your bubble man..., but enough of that bullsh*t you feed gullible Nigerians with, the campaign periods are over.

1. The relative stability in power as experienced today has nothing to do with your cock and bull theory...you tlk about more gas supply...today Nigeria generates only about 4,650 MW .... Similar to what GEJ had always claimed we generate. While power generated remains the same...here we are enjoying 70% stability post May29 2015.

2. You lots seem so confused as to how else to deceive gullible Nigerians. First, you claimed it was the rainy season...the season is almost over...so you now shift to the trash about gas supply... Gas supply according to your theory improved since 2014....so why did power stability chill till May 29 2015? ....was GEJ so clueless as not to know how this alone would have earned him a second term?

3. Does it not bother you that your cock and bull story of gas supply improvement only started after the withdrawal of militants and touts earlier used by your party to protect gas networks?

4. You will need to stick this last bullet to your skull... "LEADERSHIP HAS ALWAYS BEEN OUR PROBLEM IN NIGERIA...WE FIXED THAT ON MAY 29....AND OUR FORTUNES ROSE"

#SayNoToTrashFromThePast

This ya knock out punch is just too lethal. I doubt barcanista still has any teeth left in his mouth to speak audibly anymore

Afam4eva:
Don't sweat it. I uh understand your pain. Among all the ckntestants, you were the one whose torso was close to being seeen and you lost to someone who was well covered up and Igbo. Like I said, I understand the pain.

Now you have the answer to your question. This is the reason why I feel many of you Igbos need urgent help, urgently! You guys lack basic analytical skills and you use the "they hate us because they are jealous(or whatever)" method of problem solving.
Get over your sorry selves for your own good!

Afam4eva:
What happened to you? I have followed your transition since the Miss Nairaland days and your hate for Igbos has grown faster than Usain Bolt and its I'm very sure that pageant was the catalyst. It's very hard to believe that some from the Akwa- Cross axis will hate Igbos with such audacity. Did you get married to someone from outside the old Eastern region? What exactly happened.

Pls what does this character take me for?
Because of an online pageant with zero benefits? Like seriously! Pls stop insulting me. I believe you saw my pictures during the pageant did I in anyway look like someone that is starved of compliments?? That you spend 24/7 on NL does not mean I do. I have a life outside here where I get compliments and endorsements from real life men with real benefits to give me. Now will you.....?

Afam4eva:
Give her a break. She lost the Miss Nairaland pageant owing to the doing of the Igbo organizers. She has the right to vent her anger in anyway possible.

Oh my days!!!!

I'm surprised NL Igbos have not accused him of being Yoruba. After all anyone not in support of biafra or any SS that does not accept to be Igbo is Yoruba.
Anuofia!
