Can't believe a man as verse as Dave, wants to believe Igbos will be given presidential ticket under APC.

specialmati:
maybe they should give it to the likes of peter obi .igbos may be what these country need as a president if there is any thing left to progress this nation. But not any igbo .you dont give to the like of orji uzo kalu or okorocha

ORIENTATION101:
Ignorance.
Mko abiola defeated a northerner
Obasanjo defeated a northerner
Jonathan defeated a northerner

It was easy cos they inheritted a political structure from a party with good political machinery.

It is only ignorant like you think nigeria election is only about northern votes. Why didnt northern votes elect buhari after loosing 3 times?

Come 2023 APC southern candidate will trash whosoever pdp brings whether atiku or tambuwal.

APC has the political structure, whoever inherit it will win 2023.

FreeStuffsNG:
The reality is that SE won't vote for APC but will vote PDP. It will be naive and political suicide if the APC plays into the hands of PDP by going to contest against PDP on the strong political turf of PDP.
The reality is that APC will lose against PDP if it choses its flagbearer from the SE. SE is a stronghold of the PDP. The best bet for APC is to choose from the SW while the PDP choose its candidate from the SE.

oyatz:


You mean APC should give it's presidential ticket to the PDP vice-presidential candidate?


Why not be bold enough to ask the PDP to give it's presidential ticket to a younger and vibrant Peter Obi instead of Atiku?

seunmsg:


Same way some of us will feel bad if PDP denies Igbos the chance of producing the party’s presidential candidate in 2023 despite voting overwhelmingly for the party since 1999.

Since when did your rabid anti-Igbo skull start sympathizing with Igbos? Or is because you think a yoruba APC candidate stands a better chance against an SE PDP candidate than an Arewa candidate?

Yoro-mugu fooling himself thinking he is fooling everyone else. Better concentrate on your blackmail clamour for oduduwa republic. yoruba presidency you no go smell again.

Deadlytruth:

And you have forgotten that Nigeria was detailed into this ignominious path of dysfunctionality by a collection of Igbos who derailed democracy, introduced military rule into our national lives and destroyed the pristine constitution we started with at independence. So how exactly is an anticipated Igbo rule in 2023 not going to cause a repetition of that bad experience?

If that is the case, thunder will fire you people

Ovamboland:


Minorities have ruled Nigeria longer than any major ethnic group. Tafawa Balewa, Yakubu Gowon, Babangida, Abacha, Abulsalam, Jonathan are all from minority groups. Total of 35 years between them. No majority ethnic group led the country close to that.

Any minority or majority person interested in running the country should align, cooperate and work hard. Blackmail and insults won't deliver leadership to anyone.

onuman:


Nigeria armed forces organized a military coup. The organizers were Igbos, Yorubas, Hausa Fulanis, etc.
Dishonest people like you turned the coup story into an Igbo coup.

After the coup, the north wanted to secede from Nigeria. The army HoS then Aguiyi Ironsi, proclaimed a Decree that took some little more powers from the regional governments, in order for the Aguiyi led government to preserve one Nigeria.
People of your type later told the untrue story that Igbos cancelled regional government system.

Deadlytruth:

So Nzeogwu who was himself a direct participant in the coup lied when, in an interview with Ejindu, said "At the core of the plot were just five of us (in obvious reference to himself, Okafor, Ifeajuna, Nwatuegwu and Adegboyega).? Apart from Adegboyega, which of these names was not Igbo or at least Igboid?

Then are you also suggesting that Nzeogwu lied again when Ejindu asked him about the ethnic agenda undertone in the execution of the coup and in response he said; "in the North, no but in the South, yes"? If you want the full interview excerpts, I will gladly furnish you with it here. In essence it was Nzeogwu a participant himself who told the whole world that it was an Igbo coup as against your revisionism that it was from so-called dishonest people. I repeat, if you want a link to the interview in which Nzeogwu laid it bare in unequivocal terms that it was an Igbo coup, I will gladly furnish you with it here and now.
On your attempt to whitewash Ironsi and rationalize his wicked, demonic and Igbo agenda focused decrees, you need to ask yourself how it made common sense for him to make decrees which took more powers to the center when the remote cause of the crisis all over the country at that point in time was the abuse of powers at that very center by Balewa.
So if you yourself were to be opportuned to become president of Nigeria under the present circumstance of serious abuse of powers at the center by the Fulanis, you would further take powers from the states and transfer them to the Federal Government just because you want one-Nigeria? Are you sure you are for real? Let us assume now that Tinubu becomes president in 2023 and then on assumption of office he begins to make polices that gives more powers to the FG in the name of seeking national unity, won't you see it as a purely Yoruba domination agenda clothed in the garb of national unity quest? All logical analyses always prove that Ironsi acted against common sense in pursuit of a very sinister agenda.

Eastlink:
But slavery in PDP is cool right. Ask PDP for your ticket and be bold as men. Where's Peter Obi the weakling when you need him, I guess he's begging Wike to cede him the VP slot.

JordanMichael:
I'm neither APC nor PDP supporter but deep down your heart you know APC neither PDP will make any South East candidate presidential flag bearer

onuman:


Look the meaning of the word “agenda “ in the dictionary. Was there any day Igbos met and gave Ironsi an agenda to take more powers from the regional governments?
Never. Your uninformed use of the phrase: “Igbo agenda “ is devious. Till today, Ironsi is not respected by Igbos because of his private agenda in taking more powers from the regions. Where have you seen Aguiyi Ironsi monument in Igbo land except in his Umuahia hometown where a street was named after his name?

Same goes for your Nzeogwu you said was on Igbo agenda with the military coup of Nigeria’s armed forces planned as you accepted by Igbo and non Igbo soldiers. Igbo leaders at the time did not meet and gave any Igbo soldier an agenda to organize a military coup. Igbo soldiers halted the coup, made the coup unsuccessful; you ignore that aspect of the coup. If the coup was an Igbo agenda, why then would Igbo soldiers halt the coup?

People of your sort have clutched tight to the fact that the coup plotters failed to kill Azikiwe and other Igbo leaders as an alibi for making the coup an Igbo coup.

By the way, since Nigeria’s independence, no Igbo has led Nigeria except the six months of Ironsi. Nigeria is under the gutters. You still clutch tight to, and live on the past events of the 1960s as excuse to continue to exclude Igbo from apex political leadership of Nigeria. Good luck to you.
