Fall into line. Support the party with the answer and get paid with full integration into national life. APC is your only hope. This mbamiri man will drown all of you in salt water so deep you wont know when you all transform into crabs. Akuko na egwu!tomorrow you guys won't fail to remind our minority neighbours how we connived and kick them out of power just like in the old eastern region. |

Collynzo9: Don't mind them, they didn't say all this when we supported Yar'adua and Obasanjo who are not Igbos. Yar'adua was a muslim and a Fulani just like Buhari but we had no problems voting him in. We have voted people from almost all the regions in Nigeria, yet you will still hear some of them say that they will not support Igbos for Presidency because Igbos didn't support them. Lol. Don't mind them. |

We've moved on from this worthless rubbish you are peddling and if I might add, of what relevance is that rubbish when we both know at the end of the day, the same people on your list end up in Yoruba land for their means of livelihood and survival?...
Face topic jare... I myt nt cal u a fool buh knw this that lagos was fortunate enuf to be in its present economic stature b'cos it was fortunate enuf to be among those lands developd by the whites b'cos of its strategic position along the bight of west africa. Ibos are atractd to suces and its agent we the Ibos found in that land hence our prefered migration to lagos. These agents of suces was carvd and laid out by the whites in view of makin the land their seat of administration, not because it was yorubaland. 2 Likes |

We all clamor for a great nigeria. Our desired nigeria can only be achieved if we can move this nation from its present status being a country into a nation. And what is nationalism? Its definately not what I sense and perceive from most of the hate posts on this thread. Building this nation starts with you and I irrespective of your tribe, sentiments, religion. There is too much hate in this country.we all know the history of nigeria. I'm not mentioning any tribe so as not to arouse negetive comments. Pls Vote whoever you like. But remember that as we get older we need to learn to forgive the mistakes made in the past because those mistakes were made by our grandpas and great greatgranpas i wouldn't hold the mistakes of your grandpa against you. Let's join hands to move this country forward because if don't do it now, our kids would continue to suffer for it. SAY NO TO THIS CONTINUED HATE AND TRIBALISTIC BIGOTRY |

Ikemba Nnewi never won an election under the NPN. He lost the senatorial seat to Dr Edwin Onwudiwe in 1983. IROHINOodua: Political Equation of Nigeria. Politics is a game of numbers, that involves bargaining, strategic thinking, negotiations, re-positioning etc. It involves give and take, scratch my back, I scratch your back. There are no permanent enemies or friends in politics, rather permanent interest. Also there are little or no room for sentiments in politics. Bayelsa State (State of origin of our President) has only 590,679 registered voters. The entire South South region has a total of 9,486,783 registered voters. Other regions are as follows, North Central, 11,466,596, North East, 10,445,510, North West, 18,616,499, South East, 7,178,185, and South West, 13,188,854. Supporting President Goodluck, means Igbos would expect same support from Bayelsa and South South region, when an Igbo persons wants to seek the office of the President of Nigeria. Assuming the entire South South gives such a person 100% votes, that would not be sufficient to win the Presidential election. But the fact remains that a non indigene cannot secure 100% votes from South South. Besides, no winner has ever secured 100% votes. Therefore, the political mathematics dictates that Igbos support Buhari/North, in return for Northern support, when it’s the turn of Igbos. Per adventure if President Jonathan wins in 2015, by 2019, PDP can never zone the Presidency to South East. Its going North. South East Economic Interests/Investments. The Igbos have more investments and businesses in the North, much more than in Bayelsa State and the entire South South region. There are only 6 states in the South South region, while there are 19 states in the North, that is North West, North East and North Central. Therefore, millions of Igbo stand to make more money through their businesses in the North than South South. This becomes more obvious, when there are no federal government support schemes for the survival of Igbo business people all over Nigeria. Igbos survive on self help. Compare it with what the same federal government budgeted for Niger Delta militants in 2014 budget. (A)Stipends and Allowances to 30,000 Niger Delta Militants under the Presidential Amnesty Programme: N23.6 Billion (twenty three billion, six hundred million Naira). (B)Reintegration of Transformed Ex Militants: N35.4 Billion (Thirty Five Billion, Four Hundred Million Naira). Historical Antecedents. During the First Republic, Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe’s party (NCNC) went into alliance with the Northern People’s Congress (NPC). During the Second Republic, Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe’s party, Nigerian Peoples’ Party (NPP), broke away from Waziri Ibrahim’s party, Great Nigerian Peoples’ Party. Zik’s party (NPP) won a Governorship election in Plateau State, thru Chief Solomon Lar. This was the only state outside South East, that his party (NPP) won a Governorship election. Chief Alex Ekwueme was the Vice President under President Shagari. Chinua Achebe, was the Vice Presidential Candidate/running mate to the Late Aminu Kano, under Peoples’ Redemption Party (PRP). Ikemba Nnewi, contested Senatorial election and won under National Party of Nigeria (NPN). Ex Head of State, General Ibrahim Babangida, appointed Commodore Ebitu Ukiwe, as his second in command/deputy. General Sani Abacha, fully sponsored Ikemba’s wedding with his wife (Bianca). General Buhari, chose Okadigbo and Umezoke respectively in 2003 and 2007 as running mates. Ojukwu’s running mate under APGA was Sani Ibrahim Bayero (a brother of the late Emir of Kano). Ex Vice President, Atiku Abubakar chose Senate Ben Obi as running mate in 2007. Igbos voted massively for Yar Adua, against their own leader (Ikemba Nnewi) in 2007. Biafran War. No political story of Igbos, would be complete, without reference to the civil war. The writer does not intend to open old wounds neither will he, exonerate any tribe that fought against the Igbos. Also, this is in response to series of emails/questions that, the Northerners caused Igbos hardship thru the war etc. The major reason for the collapse of Biafra, was not the Hausas only, but principally the economic blockade, starvation policy and change of currency, all initiated by Awolowo and the sabotage from the Ijaws. To make matters worse, Awolowo as then finance minister, gave every Igbo man £20 pounds, irrespective of any amount you had then, plus the abandoned properties, seized by old Rivers State indigenes. |

TechRev: The North that has produced presidents and head of states for decades how far?? your region fly the flag of the poorest. Why should igbos seek a position that will impoverish igbos going by the Northern example. Or did the North produce only clueless presidents?? Leave the igbo man alone concentrate on voting your General. Word The op is displaying frustration. He knows that GMB is doomed without SE and SS votes. Already both North and SW votes are seriously divided Diarist God ooo |

This is a very big lie that APC will never give an Ibo man the ticket. If this lie is assumed.true then it is worse for the PDP. What kept Rochas out of it for now was Buharis star power and proven 12million votes. Atiku had money talking. Buhari's star power is nothing but lost love mentality of the Buhari Idiagbon regime. Rochas was the best speaker, most charimatic and visionary and he speaks hausa more than some hausas. Well let's all watch and see what happens with time. still won't vote a northerner though. 1 Like |
