Someone once said if you stand for nothing....you fall for anything (or something like that).

Well my point is, the SE thinks it's about time they produce a Nigerian president. I do too but it's not going to be handed to them on a platter.

They need to go out and work for it....I mean work hard.

They need to pair up with either the west or the north. they r not talking to the north and they r busy fighting the western guys over Lagos.

Now, a new govt would be constituted by a party the SE didn't vote for. It's back to square one.

What amazes me is that the best the SE got under the Pdp in the past 16yrs is the Senate president office....and they still keep voting Pdp.

How does that work?

But the fact it that the north or west that has been getting that seat are no better. So what's the fuss about? Especially the north.

You can't blame these ibo guys. They have no foresight. They rather remain stagnant than move foward. Quite contended with Business.

No mind those irrelevant clowns. Them think say dem count.

I don't think the SE misfired; they stood for what they believed in and that's what true heroes are known for. More so, the president elect should do a soul searching why he is never accepted in the two geopolitical regions since 2003

it's all about standing for what you believe, and the SE have never believed in Buhari; it's now left for Buhari to prove the SE wrong, by his performance, that he is deserving of being Nigerian president. Even SW just voted him the first time, the fourth time of asking, and he will have to prove that he deserved that support

They misfire, they miscued, but it's still one nigeria.
Please tell barcanista, oregmussantus, temitemi1, SeverusSnape etc to come back.

If Ngige was voted for, SE should have had the Senate Presidency automatically. But as usual, missed yet another opportunity.

The SE needs to get over the belief that North and SW is their opposition. The Ibos will always be loved and accepted by Nigerians for a leadership position in the future if they can truly put Nigeria and not their tribe first.

A lot of you need to grow up really that's all I can say

The south east should have no regrets about it's political choices and stick with the PDP and APGA come rain come shine!

You guys can share power at the center however you like. In 2 weeks time Rochas Okorocha will be booted out of Douglas house. Please do with him what you may in your cabinet.

Everyone does not have to be in the winning party.

Come 2019 as planned the PDP will as planned present a younger northern candidate with a VP from south east then we will see how popular whoever APC present truly is.

Like I say, you guys should bother yourself on how to run a successful government and leave the south east alone.

The south east is more interested in the implementation of the confab report than any silly position APC has to offer. APC for whatever reason chose to stay away from the confab. We will see what APC does with that confab report. It's not about who is up or who is down.

Let's see how you can raise Nigeria up!

U r right, now the Senate president and speaker will go to North and West because APC don't have any rep or Sen from east

You can not vote along tribal lines and then turn around to accuse others of tribalism!

Buhari's election represents everything wrong about Nigeria. It is childish to even try to spin it otherwise!

How many other countries around the world will a 72 year old former dictator who left office 30 years ago win an election?

Buhari's election is a dent on the conscience of this nation so to spin it around and go on about Igbo this and Igbo that is quite frankly pathetic

We will see how Buhari solves all of Nigeria's problems in the next 4 years!

When I said this on this forum several years ago many Ibos PointB, Onlytruth were arguing.

Politically Ibos are clueless

As at 2007 Orji Kalus PPA had 2 governors, Tinubus AC had 1 governor

Today Tinubu's APC has the presidency, majority in Senate and possibly governors

PPA is dead . APGA is dead. The PDP they carried on their head is more of a Northern party sef

No Senator from APGA

here they go again with thesame stupid line. The seats they've been winning is. The reason why their votes have become powerful as they get to have enough political juggernauts to influence the people. If you look closely, you'll realise that other regions are far better than the SE, but an Ibo man won't agree.

For the past 6yrs where were the SW?

After 6yrs it has come to SW so stop gloating because buhari would show Tinubu who's da boss in a few months time.

Do you need some tisue to wipe those tears?

Buhari would rule this country as he wishes

And as we have shown APC doesnt need your vote at all. Keep it to yourself

The owners of Nigeria have aligned. It took almost 55yrs to achieve but it has been done now the most populous regions are together.

Watch out for another ANC like domination while you struggle in the opposition without Federal backing

what they believed in was a stupid thing. They chose to support a man seen by the whole world as a huge failure. That's the mistake they made. Now the whole nation has seen them for whom they truly are- haters of Nigeria.

Where are they now?

They only elected a VP and we no go hear word

Come 2019 we will play the same game the SW plays and help elect a Northerner too

Anyday APC puts forward a south westerner for Presidency PDP and South East will align with the North too!

Let power continue to remain in the North!

DickTator1:

Tinubu doesnt have to be president

He is the presidents Kingmaker

Buhari cant make 2 statements before mentioning Tinubu and dont forget The number 2 man is Tinubus man

So the Igbos can wait and strategize for 4yrs. I hate to hold brief for the Igbos but we in the ss are now aligned with the Igbos.
Buhari would soon tell Tinubu who the president is, the best the sw can hope for is crumbs from buhari's table.

They should not pair with west cos everything they lay their hands on na failure.I trust the hausas,they can't even ally with them for a billion dollars.
There own don finish for Lagos and other western States except God intervenes.They received you with live and the only thing your callous mind can do Is to revel against them.
Set of ingrates.

2019 Buhari would go for a second term and by then we would have defeated any remanant of PDP

2023 Osinbajo would be presented for compensation to the SWest for the support they gave the North,

After 8yrs Osinbajo would hand over to Tambuwal

After 8yrs Tambuwal would hand over to Fashola

After Fashola back to EL Rufai

Hope you are counting the number of yrs in the wilderness

Ibo sabi strategize? If dem sabi strategize. PPA wont be dead now and APGA wont be competing with KOWA for relevance

Labour Party has more Senators than APGA its that bad

My friend, to see you this unobjectively bitter and ungracious is disappointing. Try and compose yourself. You are making a fool of yourself.

Nobody will prove you wrong,you guys will suffer.You worked against Yoruba in their own land so your attitude isn't new.

Even Buhari don't tire for the Ibos sef. He twice chose Ibo as a running mate, I.e. in 2003 and 2007. But they refused to vote for him. They would have actualise their dream by now.
