Because south west pushed us ....we would romance north again in 2023 ...and would you blame us ?

Do u really expect an igbo man to support south west ...what's the logic ?

Is it your turn ? ..haven't u ruled before ? Didn't u betray n romance north in 2015 ? Tell me y we shouldn't romance north

Rather put it in normal way, you will go back to your eternal slave masters I mean the fulanis. Even New York time knows your race as betraying race.

Yoruba's are funny ....after what happened to zik in the western region where he was betrayed

U expected him really to form a government with awolowo ? Funny
Same way u expect Niger delta to support the west in 2023 after what u did in 2015

Same thing awolowo was expecting Igbo support after his role in the civil war ?

U betray someone then turn expect the person to support u ...after they say Igbo's don't build bridges

[/s]Did zik not have home region. Very greedy race.

What about a Benin man or Ibibio man or tiv person? Must it always be hausa-yoruba-igbo?

Anybody can come out. It is a contest, not a title.

Chief Edwin Clark, a nationalist who served under former Head of State, General Yakubu Gowon, as Federal Commissioner for Information, in this interview, speaks on the need for true federalism and why zoning of the nation’s presidency is paramount among other issues. Excerpts:

[/b]Let us talk about the state of the nation…
[b]
Things are very bad but we thank God that we are surviving and we remain united. The challenges are however many. Today, the country seems to be divided religiously and ethnically despite the fact that we all talk about unity. Security challenge is growing. The situation has not been effectively controlled. About four years ago, we were talking about Boko Haram in the North-East, and we felt that, with the promise made by the ruling party for ‘change’ and having the country being headed by a former military Head of State, Boko Haram would be a thing of the past. But, today, Boko Haram is still a problem. And apart from Boko Haram, we can see what is going on in the North-West, especially in Sokoto and Katsina. People are being killed, maimed and kidnapped. In Taraba, Plateau and Benue states, the situation is not different. We have, today, in the South, herdsmen ransacking everywhere, harassing maiming, kidnapping and raping women. Things are not normal.

[/b]Is this the Nigeria our heroes past foresaw when they fought for independence?[b]

I will say no because in the First Republic, even though we had some problems, the unity of Nigeria was very much guaranteed. During the pre-independence era, we were working together until 1953 when Tony Enahoro moved the motion for the independence of Nigeria and the Northern Region walked out of parliament. The British government invited Nigerian leaders to London for the 1954 and 1957 conferences and so on which led us to independence in 1960. During the period, there was peace and each of the regions was developing at its own pace while revenue allocation was based on what you produced in your area. You keep 50 percent of the allocation while the remaining 50 percent goes to the Federal Government. And of the 50 percent that goes to the Federal Government, 20 percent is kept by the Federal Government while the remaining 30 percent is shared among other regions. Until 1963 when the Mid-West Region was created, each of the regions had its own Constitution and Agent General in London. Today, you find that one of the houses acquired by the Western Nigerian government in those days is part of the Nigeria High Commission in London. Then, there was neither envy nor hatred. Both Muslims and Christians were living in peace and harmony. But when the Army struck, problem started. Then General Gowon came into power in 1966 and there was problem. The killing of prominent Nigerian politicians resulted into the counter-coup of July 1966, leading to the Aburi Accord in 1967 which did not materialise. General Gowon created 12 states after the civil war. So, today, we have 36 states including the Federal Capital. Perhaps, those who fought for independence in 1960 when we got it never envisaged that, 59 years after, Nigeria will still be so much divided and there would be many challenges. Now there is hunger; unemployment has risen to 23 percent; Fulani herdsmen carry AK 47 around and we were told they are from Libya, Burkina Faso and Mali among others and these people have been allowed to come into Nigeria untouched. The next thing we heard was that they wanted RUGA in the 36 states of the federation, meaning that these Fulani herdsmen would now be settled in the 36 states. Nigerians kicked against it, and it was suspended; but we hope it would be suspended forever because it could divide this country

[/b]What then are the chances of the South-West in 2023?[b]

They should stop thinking of becoming the President of Nigeria. What does Tinubu have to offer that the people of the South-East cannot offer? What is the justification for them to become the President of Nigeria? Is it because they belong to the APC? They should not be thinking of how to divide Nigeria. We must all unite and have respect for ourselves. The South-West should allow other people to have a taste of power. There is no way the South-West would be better than the South-East on the 2023 presidency.

[/b]What is the way forward?[b]

Let us practice true federalism in this country. Let every Nigerian have a sense of belonging. Without restructuring, the future is bleak. You remember the other day Mr. President said ‘if we do not kill corruption, corruption will kill us’. I also believe that if we do not restructure this country, non-restructuring of Nigeria will kill Nigeria. In a situation where some people feel they are superior to others, we don’t have a country. Nobody wants to be a slave to another person. Let the elders of the country meet from time to time to discuss the challenges of Nigeria. Like former President Olusegun Obasanjo, I have advocated that all stakeholders, including youths and women, have a roundtable to discuss the security of this country. What is happening in the North-East and North-West should not be regarded as a northern affair but a Nigerian affair because, sooner or later, it will happen to all of us.

[/s]Clark ko, clock ni. Make them wait in their room. They will bring the presidency for them. I thought they don't want presidency.

IamAtikulate:

Stop displaying gross ignorance, dear Yoruba Moslem.

Republic of Benin was made up of Igbo delta, non-Igbo delta and Edo. Benin city was named the capital with the Oba of Benin as Head of State while Anions was the head of government subordinate to the Head of State.

The Midwest campaign was not an invasion, it was a liberation campaign from the federal troops.

Tone down on your lying, Ndi Yoruba Moslem

I have no time for a known lair like you. We know the truth, the people of Midwest know the truth. You and your fellow Osus can keep defending your fathers' atrocities. Just the way you people have been lying since the end of the war.

Same way you people never talked about Casino bombing. You people think God is foolish right.

Hateful igbos have created another thread Lagos is dead

They are the real problems of south

You mind the hateful race. Na him papa bury Lagos na

Ikinternational:



I noticed you did not call me a liar. That's good enough for me. You can continue playing your game of diversion.

Whatever I am, we're not mates n our pockets are not equal. Landlord don't battle tenants. I have more cash in my home safe than you have in your bank account. #factsoflife

I gloat on my own achievements. Unlike some online idiots. Congrats on riding the next man's diik

I have no time for pig. Your epistle isof no use. I didn't even read it.

Ikinternational:


All this damn bravado. But when it's time to sell land you look for igbo buyer. Foh

Car for sale? Igbo man to the rescue.

How many yoruba families have advanced their priorities with that influx of igbo cash from selling their family land? But here you are behaving like an untrained pig..smh

Yeah, I understand you are an untrained pig. Are you not igbo again, a known pig.

Alajiki:


Do something about your grammar.

No wonder you are alajiki, when English is difficult for you. I will advice you as your fellow lazy olodos to get yourself A one in English textbook and understand concord. Then, you will understand my grammar. Olodo that doesn't know that family is a collective noun and singular verb follows it up. Zombie.

joeyfire:


You be small boy. Which Midwest invasion? Oya prove his allegations if you are really informed

Are you that lazy. I have helped you enough by giving where to read the truth from. It was written by the son of the Midwestern region. Can't help you more.

joeyfire:


Liar

1. An anioma man from Midwest was appointed

2. Igbos never sacked any minorities. Prove it

3. How did Yoruba sack Igbos from Niger Delta

4. Did the Midwest not vote overwhelmingly in the referendum to leave the Western Region in 1963?

What do this one know. All these indomie generation.

Go and read Midwest invasion of 1967.

Osaze007:


Why did Igbo army invade Midwest and declare an Igbo man as ruler of Benin
Why did Igbo army sack minorities during the civil war

If anything Yoruba has played Big brother role in southern Nigeria by sacking igbos from Midwest and Niger delta so don’t go there let’s talk about today and tr hatred Igbo has on those groups

Never, you will never see them talking about that, all the do is their victim mentally way. These guys are devil in human form.

bonnylight003:


That's the wish of every Yoruba man...started from awolowo...lol..
But Niger deltans know the lesser devil...

If not ..yoruba propaganda from awolowo alone ..for make igbos and their neigbours be on constant arm conflict..


The hate igbos because their propaganda to create arm conflict down the better side failed and still failing..

If Yorubas make you hate your brother, that means you are a FOOL.

bonnylight003:


First show me abiola quote ....stop propagating false..and fake.

We secoundlyy where's abiola today..

Propagnda no dey work..

Meanwhile 2015 iis the Yoruba nation first time in government ...
You guys are opposition and will.soon return ..to opposition..
And don't come up with obasanjo crap..we all know how it went.

Bye

I will show you when you show me the evidence that Awolowo had agreement with ojukwu that you people have been propagating. Then I will give you what you asked for.

Lol, we are opposition and will soon return just as you have made buhari back to daura right .

No, I can't come with obj because we never wanted him. It was northerners that helped him into power. You can get the result and remove all igbo votes and see how inconsequential it was. You igbo have never made anyone president in the nation before.

Yes, we are always been opposition because we are not slaves like the igbos.

mrvitalis:

Wait we igbos should support Yoruba's is that what u want?

What I want is that you igbos can't dictate to us. You can only do that among yourself. We don't need your support.

JonDon12:
How was it proven? All that was proven was that he didnt need any votes beause all the votes he got did not stop the Hausa man from using him as a door mat, throw his ass in jail and kill his wife. This was a legally elected president of Nigeria, a whole Bashorun, kakanfo,Muslim, Richest man in Nigeria, but still the Hausa man used him worse than a used peice of toilet paper. YOU GUYS WAKE UP, WAKE UP. Nigeria is only for the NORTH. Stop being cowards. Look the enemy in the eye and stand up for yourselves.

Also let me tell you more history. ABiola needed at least one ibo vote : Arthur Nzeribe. Becaause Although IBB was the shooter, Nzeribe was the gun. Not proud of that as an Ibo but it is true.

He might not have ruled, but he won. Yes he won, and with the igbos, who were slaves to the abokis.

Osaze007:


No I’m opened to southerners ruling
But the PHD syndrome I’m seeing is mostly from Igbo

They are quick to pray for Osinbajo to suffer
Looking for Tinubu to be humiliated
Abusing oshiomole
Claiming and insulting Akwa Ibom people

But will dear not abuse a Fulani or face them Infact they act servitude to the Fulani people

They should keep it up, since their lives depend on it

mrvitalis:

The the north keep ruling ...we become vice

Let them keep ruling. Igbos are nonentities.

JonDon12:


What did Abiola say in 1999? You dont know your history. MKO died in 1998. That is the problem with you Yorubas, You guys dont know history and dont want to learn from it. The North has been HUMILIATING you guys since even before the British came, but because Buhari made Osibanjo Chief Bootlicker, una dey act as if una win BBNaija. Learn your history and have some dignity

[/s]Mr historian, Abiola said, he doesn't need igbo votes, and yes, it was proven. So swerve.

Osaze007:


The irony is they ended up being the ethnic group that needed it

Don't mind him.

arantess:

Your grammar is bad

Would have been appreciated if you had tried to correct it instead of your I too know. So your opinion is a total rubbish.

Conner44:
ahn ahn bail condition can’t be met

Just common N150million from his personal account and another small N100million from two people willing to vouch for him?

a whole presidential aspirant like Sowore

Did your family since the day of Adam has 50million put together?

mrvitalis:

Ova we don't all have the same ideologies ...would west obey our zonning agreement by backing Igbo ?

If not the Igbo has Igbo support

Agreement kill you there. In the first republic, did you igbo obey the seccesion clause proposed by yorubas. No, why, because una be the one in power then, thinking it would continue that way until table turned. Una just start. Zoning my foot.

bonnylight003:
So igbos should support Yoruba?

Yorubas don't need or want una support. Abiola said it to your face in 1999 and he won with landslide.

Generalnomercy:


Yoruba's are the real betrayers. Check your history..
Yoruba's are back stabbers.

They started the mess for their selfish interest, so why crying now?

Igbos have the right to vote anybody they want and we don't need any Yoruba contribution on that...

Go and take your pill.

Yoruba's if they have any atom of dignity should humble themselves and plead for forgivness from other part of the South.

If you and your father have dignity in you as igbo, then dress up and come out and wait for the forgiveness you have been crying about. Una just start una larmentation.

So igbos have the right to vote for anybody they want but yorubas don't have abi. Stupidity runs in your generation.

MelesZenawi:



Lolzzz


Until presidency finishes trashing Osibanjo then I will reply you.

Maybe SE was also responsible for Gani, awolowo down syndrome.


Till Buhari finishes with Osibanjo first.

Igbo man and envy ehhh. Not long ago, obichina was begging to be in that position.

Osaze007:
Am I the only one observing the PHD syndrome Igbo people are suffering especially towards southerners
They can’t wait to see southerners collapse or betrayed by north especially Yoruba people
But they are willing to vote for a northerner 2023 even praying to be VP . The same position they called Yorubas all sorts of name for

If it’s not envy I don’t know what it is
The trend must stop we are one southerners

Are you just knowing. We know those people from Adam, so their ways no get any meaning to us.

Just know, if igbo man accuses or critizes you of something, just know the he wants that particular thing. Nothing more.

You will see them beating chest that they pay tax in lagos

thebosstrevor:
Nigerians always say they are one of the smartest people in the world, they boast and beat their chest that they are so intelligent and smart and nobody can beat a Nigerian, but then again with all these bragging, Nigeria is not developed and cant boast of a middle class

My question to you Nigerian Folks, if Nigerians are one of the smartest in the world, why isnt Nigeria developed? pls do not mention bad government, i am tired of hearing that.

E weak me o

Today they claim Israel, tomorrow, akwa ibom. Hehehehe

So anybody that exposes your lies is an afonja? Let me reply u in my Language: Ado ata ata unam ikot, Ndiseme owo.
If u understand what that means

Why are you surprised, isn't that what their parents programmed them to believe. Tell them the truth, they shout Afonja. If they can shout Afonja when Fulani raped their parents in anambra and enugu. What else.
