ariesbull: Nigeria's democracy is strongest when every major component of the federation feels a sense of belonging and inclusion. Since the return to democratic rule in 1999, the presidency has been occupied by leaders from different regions of the country. The South-West has produced a president, the North-West has produced presidents, and the South-South has also occupied the highest office. Yet, the South-East remains the only major geopolitical zone that has not had the opportunity to produce a democratically elected president in the Fourth Republic.
Giving the Igbo a chance at the presidency should not merely be viewed as an ethnic concession; it should be seen as a commitment to fairness, national unity, and the principles of federal character upon which Nigeria was founded. A nation thrives when all groups believe they have an equal stake in its future.
Beyond the argument of equity, the South-East has consistently demonstrated remarkable entrepreneurial capacity, resilience, innovation, and commitment to economic development. Across Nigeria, Igbo entrepreneurs have built businesses, created jobs, and contributed significantly to commerce, manufacturing, and trade. The region has produced numerous professionals, academics, technocrats, and business leaders who have excelled both within Nigeria and internationally.
The question before Nigerians should not be, "Where is the candidate from?" but rather, "Who has the competence, vision, integrity, and capacity to lead?" Modern nations progress when merit takes precedence over ethnic considerations. Countries that have achieved sustainable development did so by prioritizing leadership quality over tribal, religious, or regional sentiments.
Nigeria has paid a heavy price for politics driven by ethnicity, nepotism, and sectional interests. Tribalism has often divided citizens, weakened national cohesion, and distracted the country from addressing pressing challenges such as insecurity, unemployment, poverty, infrastructure deficits, and economic growth. The future of Nigeria depends on moving beyond these divisions and embracing a culture where leadership is earned through performance and ability.
The South-East has produced individuals with proven records in governance, business, public administration, academia, and industry. Therefore, Nigerians should evaluate candidates from the region with an open mind and on the basis of their ideas, competence, and track records rather than ethnic stereotypes or historical prejudices.
Giving an Igbo candidate a fair opportunity to contest and potentially lead the nation would send a powerful message that Nigeria belongs to all its citizens. It would strengthen national integration, deepen democratic participation, and reinforce the belief that every Nigerian, regardless of ethnic background, can aspire to the highest office in the land.
Ultimately, the call is not for Nigerians to support a candidate simply because he or she is Igbo. Rather, it is a call to reject tribalism and nepotism, embrace meritocracy, and judge every candidate by their vision, competence, character, and ability to deliver results. A united and prosperous Nigeria can only emerge when citizens place national interest above ethnic loyalties and choose leaders based on what they can achieve for the country as a whole.

Glimpsetv: A video of three young Nigerian ladies wearing hijab, condemning a woman who allegedly celebrated selling her vote to the APC for ₦15,000 during the just-concluded Ekiti State governorship election, has sparked various reactions online.
There have been several reactions to the alleged vote-buying incidents during the Ekiti election. However, these ladies were particularly upset by a viral video of the woman who came online to publicly celebrate receiving ₦15,000 for her vote while showing her inked thumb, indicating that she had just cast her vote or completed the transaction she was allegedly paid for.
In their reaction video, the young ladies mocked and criticized the woman’s decision, describing it as short-sighted and emphasizing that “the money no go last.”
They expressed disappointment over voters prioritizing immediate financial gain over decisions that could affect their future.
One of the ladies stated that the ₦15,000 would not be enough to cover her needs in a serious situation, such as paying a ransom if she were kidnapped. She also criticized the celebration of such a small amount, comparing it with others who allegedly receive millions of naira.
Many people online have expressed satisfaction with seeing young Nigerians openly condemn the act of vote selling. Watch the video and listen to the full reaction. Cc: Nlfpmod
