Igbo seem to be the tool used in keeping this marriage called NIGERIA moving.. I tell you most solemnly, THE VERY DAY IGBO TRIBE SUCCESSFULLY LEAVES NIGERIA, OTHER TRIBES WILL FIND NO REASON TO REMAIN AS ONE NIGERIA. Mark these words..

DUNDEEmoderatos:

That is human life! You have no right to kill.

AlexBells:

But have right to be born, please who made you the law of life

DUNDEEmoderatos:

How does being born related to you killing?

TheRealestGuy:


But APC won in all of the Yoruba states barring Lagos so your assertion is false.

Meanwhile, nothing in my post suggests what you're saying so I wonder where it's coming from?

I know for a fact that a significant number of Yorubas did not vote for the kleptomaniac and drug bag man called Tinubu, and that's good enough for me.

What you should be more worried about is why any normal human being would vote for APC in the 2023 presidential elections after the disaster Buhari brought upon the country, especially knowing fully well that Tinubu orchestrated his emergence.

You should be really worried that despite the current overwhelming hardship, some folks will still be swayed by ethnic and religious sentiments when another presidential election comes around.

Igbos have always mostly voted for a president who is objectively the best candidate in elections, at least in the current democratic dispensation but when the rain falls, we are not spared too.

So, no, Dele is not trying to say that Igbos are immune to evil govt, just that we are used to being schemed out in everything govt in Nigeria, hence, we have learnt and now excel at being self sufficient.

Same cannot be objectively said about other major ethnic groups, and this is with all due respect.

If you must apply interpretation, make sure you have full understanding and grasp of the issue.

Cheers.

Dele believes it's now the Igbo turn for the presidency. I don't believe that tribe or religion should be used as a criterion for leadership. Tinubu, Buhari, and GEJ are all good examples of how using ethnicity to select the presidency will always lead to failure.

I am in the opinion that Nigeria can never succeed under the current constitution and structure. The country should return to the regional political and parliamentary structure,

TheRealestGuy:


Your 2nd paragraph I agree with.

The 1st, not at all.

Unless you're of the school of thought of "na statistics we go chop?", the stats are clear that GEJ did relatively well on some key metrics like inflation, GDP growth, unemployment rates, etc.

So no, you cannot lump OBJ, Yaradua and GEJ with a complete failure and disaster like Buhari. Tinubu we cannot really say until his tenure has elapsed but the early signs are looking really bad.

To your statement about not choosing leaders based on ethnicity or religion, while that is objectively ideal, in a country with multiple ethnic groups numbering 10s of millions, the diversity has to be carefully managed.

Things like rotation of power, shared government, etc are viable ways of managing that diversity so as to ease certain primal fears and apprehensions, whether real or imagined.

As for the solution, the truth is that the oppressors WILL NOT willingly relinquish all their power and privileges for whatever ideal the citizenry hope for.

So you know what this means - it can only be taken by force by a true People's revolution.

Will Nigerians ever unite to make it happen? That's the million dollar question.

As always, time will tell.

phorget:




Put your money where your mouth is bro, invite me to a debate and let's see if I wont floor you with whatever point you might have for a government not responsive to it responsibilities.

oyatz:


Tinubu and his decision making processes have taken Nigeria further into the abyss. He needs to go. Any rational reasoning human being, irrespective of region, is better

Citizens calling fellow citizens that aren't in Government demeaning names over Government
Policies.

How will this solve Nigeria's problems?

Nigeria's problems are largely economical and no amount of revolution can solve economic problems.

Even if Tinubu leaves today, things won't become cheaper and most of the problems won't necessarily disappear.


Different parts of Nigeria urgently need to become

more productive . This is the only way to economic prospective.
