Have The Igbos Contributed To The Decimation Of GEJ Support Across The Regions?? by NgeneUkwenu(f): 12:17pm On Dec 26, 2013 |
In 2011 towards the presidential election, people all over the country were canvassing and mobilizing support for Jonathan without recourse to Religion and ethnic groupings. In fact it was hard for some of us who were ardent followers and supporters of Buhari to make headway outside the Nothern region, as almost everybody had been brainwashed by the dubious "I had No Shoes" mantra of Jonathan and a need to have a "fresh air" as he was not seen as part of the Establishment. However three years down the line, Nigerians across regions bar the south east and some parts of south south have realized there were duped in 2011 and have vowed to sweep Jonathan and his gang out of power in 2015. When Jonathan and his men discovered the mood of Nigerians, they tried to counter it by applying force and shortchanging the party structure in favour of the president, but that failed as soon it was hatched, they then resorted to Religion and Tribal sentiments, which they found the Igbos a willing tool and quickly took advantage by unleashing what can be qualified as the most divisive statement ever to come out of a sitting president the now infamous propaganda of the South west and the north which is THE IGBOS ARE THE PILLARS OF MY GOVERNMENT. Swiftly following that, was the opportunity presented by Fashola on the alleged "deportation" or "uniting" ( choose as it pleases you) the Igbos, Jonathan handlers again milked this opportunity to high heavens. The stage was now prepared for the most vociferous tribal and religious politics ever noticed in the annals of the country. Trust my Igbo brothers, when given assignment or work, they tend to do it with utmost energy and unequaled skills. Consequently the debasing of other parties and religion begun, and we started hearing things like , Boko haram party, terrorist party, Alhaji Okorocha, Efelefu, Ndi Ofenmanu, Alhaji Ngige, parasites and other unmentionable adjectives to humiliate any Nigerian that speaks against their God-given President. Time For Stock Taking: Other regions have now taken notice, and see 2015 as their time for revenge, they want to at least make a statement to the Igbos and Jonathan that, he did not win 2011 elections with only the Igbo support hence the recent campaign against him in these vilified parts of the country. Or are you surprised that almost every Yoruba, Hausa irrespective of party affiliations sees Jonathan as a common enemy that they need to do away with?. In 2011, you would find a large number of online Yoruba PDP members teeming up with The Igbo counterparts on NairaLand to haul invectives on Buhari, in order to help their party man ,Jonathan clinch the president. But the reverse is the order of the day, mainly because of the way Igbos handle Jonathan's campaign Now the big Question is: Have the Igbos unknowingly whittled down Jonathan's support base by employing ethnic and religious calumny in the course of protecting their "Azikiwe Ebele Jonathan" ****************Bonanza************* You Are Free To Rain Insults On Me, But The Message, I have Passed. 10 Likes |

What has the deportation saga got to do with Jonathan. Some of you just come out to chat crap just because you have access to internet connection. if anything, the utterances of Dokubo, Clarke and other Niger-Delta leaders will serve a more injurous blow to Jonathan than anything an Igbo man will say. In the same vein, the unguarded statements made by some Northern leaders could also serve as a death pill for whichever Northern candidate that will be presented by APC or any party for that matter. That's the sorry story of our democracy. 18 Likes |

What has the deportation saga got to do with Jonathan Anyway they used it perfectly to campaign against Ngige during the just concluded Anambra Election, remember the infamous PDP rally which had Jonathan in attendance, as Arthur Eze and co played the hate song again. the unguarded statements made by some Northern leaders could also serve as a death pill for whichever Northern candidate that will be presented by APC or any party for that matter. That's the sorry story of our democracy But dont you think elections are won by numbers and by omission or commission the North engineered it to their advatnge? We should be talking about swaying the neutral and the undecided, but when you label a whole race, a parasite and boko haram, it hurts all. 10 Likes |

That's the sorry story of our democracy. What The OP Is Doing Is What They've Been Doing Since The Sad Excuse Of Nigerian Democracy. It's Called Divide And Rule Tactics. They First Tried To Turn SE Against GEJ By First Informing Them That SS Wouldn't Replicate The Same Support If It Was Their Son And How SS Hates them. That Tactics Failed. They Then Tried To Turn Igbo Against GEJ By Informing SE That GEJ Didn't Do Anything For SE Or Any Other Igbo Community. GEJ Supporters And Workers Proved That Wrong So That Tactics Failed. Since They Can't Cut The Support By Gettin SE Or Any Igbo Community To Turn Their Backs On GEJ. A New Tactics They Trying Out Lately Was Created Aka Trying To Get GEJ To Turn Against Igbo By Informing Him Igbo Are The Reason They Are Against Him. Lmao. If They Don't Replicate The Behavior They Doing Now, I Would Think The North/West Type Of Democracy Have Actual Developed To Actual Real Democracy. The Behavior Of The OP Is Expected, At Least To Me It Is. What I Do Find Funny Is The Fact They Constantly Accuse GEJ And His Administration And supporters Of Trying To Divide Nigeria Along Ethnic/Religious Stanch Yet Ironically Enough, As Someone That Dislike Both PDP And APC, I Noticed The APC Supporters Are The Ones That Actually Doing What They Accuse GEJ Off At Least Judging On NL. They Equally Accuse GEJ, His Administration And Supporters Of Insulting Them and Their Leaders Yet Ironically Enough, The Opposite Is The Situation At Least Once Again Based On NL And The Articles I've Read From APC administration And Supporters Compared To GEJ Administration And Supporters. I Find The Whole Hypocrisy A Bit Comical To Say The Least. 18 Likes |

By portraying Jonathan's election as that of Ndigbo, my people have denied their hope of ruling Nigeria for a long time to come. For Example: When the North take 8yrs + SW 8yrs + Any minority that will agitate 8yrs + Dare add an unrealistic extra 4yrs to Jonathan. Mathematically: 2015 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 4 = 2043 Without re-aligning ourselves with the rest of the country or breaking away (which I don't support because it costs lives), the chance of Ndigbo producing the President of Nigeria is around [size=18pt]2043[/size], 30 years from now! 4 Likes |

ilugunboy: Discerning Igbos should be stoning people like Peter Adaobi on the streets now....for selling Igbo interest cheaply. Whilst Yorubas should spare Fashola and defend the most secretive government ever in the history of the fourth republic. We have already made up our minds to play Awolowo System of Politics to the extreme and have already counted and assimilated the cost. If it was good for Western Nigeria, it will be good for South East. Is not as if we don't have Akintola with even opposing ideology. If you like continue drinking Panadol for Ndigbo who know nothing about your existence or better get lost and be useful to yourself. 7 Likes |

It baffles me when inconsequential and irredeemable self serving hypocrites congregate to scold the entire Igbo Nation. Is this the manifestations of their supreme individual intellectualism and sophistication or just plain stupidity? Our families are doing just fine and we should be allowed to take our destinies in our hands with recourse to the consequences 5 Likes |

Ngwakwe:It is disheartening the we the great people of South-East have played ourselves to a very difficult corner. Here are some of the issues: - Ndigbo have continued the game of self. Being all by ourselves. Biafra was a decision of necessity. But moving forward, we must integrate/collaborate with the rest of the country to possess our place in Nigeria. - Playing a second fiddle to the Ijaw and acting as if our entire future depends on it, is not good for Ndigbo. - Our elites play for the highest bidder. But selfishness do not allow them to extract concrete promise/terms for dragging the rest of Ndigbo to offer support for Jonathan. - Greediness have not allowed our 5 Governors team up and execute important projects in the south east (like the Niger Bridge). I pray for vision, unity of purpose and ability to collaborate with the rest of Nigeria. If we can avoid demonizing others, we can attain greater relevance in Nigeria. But if we keep playing the type of politics exemplified by Peter Obi in 2013, we have a very difficult future in Nigerian Political Landscape. 3 Likes |
