Why I Am SCARED Of An Igbo Presidency by Quintessence44: 3:41pm On Sep 11, 2023 |
I fear an Igbo presidency. With each passing day, and with each anti-Nigerian comment I read on social media, of which 98% are from Igbos, the more I fear, and the more my soul rejects an Igbo presidency. I reckon they lack the patriotism to be trusted with power over this federation, and could use that power, if granted them, to sabotage the country, leading to its disintegration. We can’t afford to take that chance in my view. I can imagine the ruling classes also see this trajectory of deep Igbo unpatriotism, and are equally taking notes on the need to prevent their presidency anytime soon. 49 Likes 7 Shares |

Fejoku: The trouble with Biafra is that you are looking to seize the south-south non Igbo territories because of their oil and gas resources. If you just seceded with your 5 Igbo states alone, no one would stop you. We will even clap for you and perform traditional dances as you board your rickety buses home. 48 Likes 11 Shares |

Quintessence44: 1.I am not Igbo, an Obi supporter, or even a tinubu supporter for that matter. 2.Remember how people were saying that a Buhari presidency(I also never have voted for Buhari, because he was head of state in the 1980's and by 1999, he should have retired and been something of an adviser, not a president.)....would bring Sharia, etc. Remember all the violent commets by Northerners on the thread We had 8 years of Buhari. Advances for Islam, and Sharia= 0. 3.Igbo presidency would be like every Nigerian presidency since time immemorial. Nothing for Biafra, nothing for restructuring, nothing even for easy forex, EVERYTHING for looting. Abeg, when an Igbo man rules this country, I no go worry. After all, after 8 years of Buhari, am still practicing christianity, the Sharia judge that was in charge of the Supreme court, got disgraced out of office, and there is still no federal sharia law. Even break up of Nigeria...has any Nigerian leader broken up the country. To even break up country, we have to pass law through a National Assembly made up of majority One Nigerianists...yea, that would work. Plus, breakup= instability. No one wants instability. You should grow up, and stop hating people from other tribes. If I was to go through the number of Nigerians over the years that helped me, from a minority tribe, and are still helping me...and all of them come from a variety of tribes......you would conclude there is hope for Nigerian unity. And anyway, if Igbo person becomes president, how many people can he or she appoint? Are all of Tinubu's ministers from Lagos state, for example? 29 Likes 5 Shares |

adebayo987: The presidency is not handed on a plate. You have to build bridges across the country and get tens of millions of people outside your ethnic group to TRUST YOU to wield power over them. The Igbos do the exact opposite of this. Trashing the country at every turn. Rejoicing when bad news hits the country. Dismissing positive news about it. How in the hell do you expect Nigerians to troop out en masse to vote for you with that attitude? 23 Likes 3 Shares |

Nigerians are taking note of their unpatriotic and hateful utterances.. If we say most of them act first before thinking, it will look like insult but it's the fact. After spending the next 3 years abusing Yorubas and our amiable president, they will look for one fraud of Igbo extraction to package on eve of elections for Nigerians (that they think are imbeciles) to vote for. We dey wait una. 17 Likes 5 Shares |

Fejoku: No you did not ask for referendum as it is asked all over the world. The problem with you Biafranists, is that you tend to forget that all the places that held referendum...got the appropriate law passed first. Scottish referendum...they got a law passed in 2010 to make the thing possible in 4 years time. Ditto the Quebec referendum. Go to National Assembly, petition for referendum...una no go do. Disgrace Ekweremadu even gave you the roadmap on how to do it, you no wan follow am. 14 Likes 3 Shares |

So you really want Nigeria to remain as one but you guys keep supporting the marginalization of the igbos, even the south south whose resources is used in sustaining the entire nation was not allowed to taste power lately. Just because a few greedy sect feels that they'll be castigated if political and economic power is out of their reach. But time will tell. 18 Likes 4 Shares |
Re: Why I Am SCARED Of An Igbo Presidency by Quintessence44: 4:07pm On Sep 11, 2023 |
Fejoku: It is your own Igbo leaders in the senate and house of reps that should be filing a motion for referendum and secession, which they haven’t done. It is nobody else’s job to do that. Tinubu cannot just wake up and order a referendum. He has no constitutional authority to do that. 8 Likes 1 Share |

ValarDoharis: You are so naive. You better go and learn about the power and resources available to a Nigerian president. You must be very young to not know that an African leader with a budget of tens of billions of dollars at his disposal can influence events in his territory with ease. 1 Like 2 Shares |

Any nigerian that is scared of igbo presidency is just an irredeemable bigot that's even for more unpatriotic than the igbos he is demonizing I honestly don't see any igbo president that will be far worse than buhari's presidency that deeply physically divided nigeria but yet nigerians still tolerated him. This bigot op should explain how a civilian igbo president can singlehandedly divide nigeria without the approval of the national assembly? 18 Likes 3 Shares |
Re: Why I Am SCARED Of An Igbo Presidency by ValarDoharis: 4:32pm On Sep 11, 2023 |
You're complaining of Igbos yet happy with the barriers to their exit. Somewhere in your mind, you know if Igbos leave, there'd be no Nigeria as we know it; others would leave as well. This is why even though you hate the Igbos, you're willing to stay with them in Nigeria Quintessence44: 43 Likes 2 Shares |

Quintessence44: No Nigerian president can divide Nigeria. There is no law for secession in the country's constitution. The last time we had a National constitutional conference, secession was not on the agenda, and was even specifically excluded from the agenda. President wey no get power to create state, or even LGA, na secession him go do? 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Quintessence44:In essence, the only reason you people want the so-called South South is because of the oil. Remove the oil and you guys would've thrown them under the bus alongside their 'recalcitrant' Biafran brothers. It's all about the oil I guess.
