THE AMAKA:

please go and siddon for one corner, abeg.
your SINGLE COMMENT will lead people to attack the entire Igbo nation. abeg, this man stands alone, if you want to insult, leave us out abeg.

So, because you are scared that Igbos would be attacked, I shouldn't air my view. Who are you to speak as if you own the Igbos? I don't know my people to be cowards. However, It doesn't mean that there are no cowards among us like you. More pathetic is that you are from Imo state. SMH.
If you have nothing to contribute, sit d'Bleep out. No dey come yarn dust here.

I no won laff, but it's very hard not to,


You can not do anything as long as money and tribal reasonings remains your primary concerns and preferred currency. You really need to stop comparing yourselves with Yoruba people because you lack our political skills, smarts, sophistication and temperament.

Can't believe you people are already begging for what you thought GEJ go deliver on a platter of gold with your 99% rigged votes.


Anyways, this is expected, we warned you people but ibo people like to learn the hard way, y'all are your own worst enemies.

DRlulu:

apart from being mocked i dont see what the igbo stand to achieve with even vice president position , states focused developments to me are more important and i think thats what everybody should focus on.

THE AMAKA:

lol, keep crying. don't worry, this thread will be used as the prodigal thread for the 25+ million Igbos, where others will come with their generalizations that we all think like you, WHEN WE CLEARLY DON'T.
yawn, keep talking, abeg.

DRlulu:

what exactly did you warn them about i thought the SW also voted for him or you just want to turn the thread into something else.

Justcash:

Amaka Hapu m aka. I don't know the dream you had last night. Mind your business.

Eko Ile:

That you ibo folks shouldn't sell their souls to the most incompetent, crooked and corrupt political party in the world.


Btw, the SW did not vote for GEJ, ibo folks in the SW did. Do you need me to give you the numbers and break it down for you?

Onlytruth:

I remember I advised Amaka to stick to romance section. Frankly she over-reacts to everything here.
The insult on justcash is completely unwarranted and came out of no where.  

We have opinions and must share them here without being unnecessarily attacked.

@topic

I think our (Igbo) problem is about to be finally resolved. This problem is OUR problem. Not other zones'.
If this plays out this way, we owe no one going forward.

I don't care whether PDP survives in SE or SS; that is not our concern. It may well survive in all parts of Nigeria; but it must be kicked out of ALL parts of Igboland if this happens.  

Our concern is to go get our fair dues in Nigeria, whether the powers that be like it or not.

Woe betide whoever stands in our way then.

Justcash:

He should not forget that the South South is also made up of predominantly Igbos.

Justcash:

Yorooba people were not compared with Igbos here. Don't turn this to a Yoruba/Igbo issue. Later, na you go come dey scream, "Why does Igbos like to attack Yoroobas". Giving examples is different from comparisons. Go and do some research to see the difference. SMH.

PhysicsMHD:

lol

Eko Ile:


[b]No need to attache or even mention Yoruba people in your post, stand on your own 2 feet. [/b]You don lay yar bed, just relax and sleep on it jeje. You want GEJ because he's your ibo brother and he's going to toss you the presidency and you got him.

Y'all need to stop crying as usual, we don read the script way way before election and sabi how the story go end and it's proceeding as predicted. ibo people once again voted against their own interests. PDP is a party of several interest groups, not a party of people with core principles and political decency and GEJ is just a figure head with little or no power to do anything, talk less deliver anything. He himself is ruling at the mercy of other forces.


You really shouldn't be fighting and losing sleep to get anything from the PDP,

You people put your votes inside the wrong basket, PERIOD

DRlulu:

so they sold their souls by going out to vote their choice of leaders or assuming it was rigged you now blame all igbos?

if it was the igbo folks  in SW west that voted for him that means they are the largest ethnic group in nigeria dont you think so?

ekt_bear:

It is all about leverage. Some gave away their leverage for free (or at least, w/o any way to ensure delivery of whatever was promised before the elections.)

Nobody should be surprised by the end result.

Onlytruth:

The way I see it, we had two levels of different choices going into this election.

1) Stay in the mainstream by voting for PDP in the national elections

or

2) Go the regional way by voting for APGA

In the mainstream, we had two choices:

a) Support our neighbor from a minority tribe

or

b) Go for VP position by teaming with a majority from the North.

Well, we chose to stay in the mainstream, and at the same time adopted our neighbor.
I was among those initially opposed to it, but, since I know that history is not ending in 2011 (at least I hope), we could try the option we did; and if it fails, we would at least know that it failed; meaning there will NEVER be such opinion by any Igbo in the future.

And that is why we are having this conversation now.

So, in essence, we lost nothing. Conversely, we gained something invaluable: EXPERIENCE.

Going forward, we will be more surefooted.  

Obiagu1:

It's a fact. If you fail to join Ibibio and Efik as a group, then the Igbo will become the single major group in the SS.
If Ibibio and Efik are combined, then the Igbo will come second by a narrow margin.

Justcash:

Believe me, it will be a nasty decision for GEJ to neglect Igbos. I truly don't want him to favor Igbos in ministerial appointments because I believe that professionals should handle those positions irrespective of ethnic or religious affiliation. Those ones are too delicate to be politicized. Even the Secretary to the government shouldn't be politicized. I believe that the only way he can favor any group is to influence position in the House of assemblies.

Justcash:

Are Yoroobas Chadians? Are they not Nigerians. I am Nigerian, so why shouldn't I mention them in my post. Moreover, what right do you have to tell me not to mention Yoroobas in my post when you can easily mention Igbo? You are saying Nonsense.
We voted for our own interest. We are not regretting it. We will continue to vote in our own interest. You are not in any position to know where our interest is, talkless of telling us how to go about it. if we are not satisfied with the people that we voted for,  We will vote them out and bring in new people in the next election. Imo state is a good example.
