When he was first elevated to the status of Acting President on 19 January 2017, Professor Yemi Osinbajo embarked on a tour on Niger Delta region. His entourage included Minister of State for Petroleum, Ibe Ikachukwu; Minister of State for Agriculture, Senator Heineken Lokpobiri, as well as the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs. A move seen as a welcomed development by the good people of Niger Delta who saw it as a new chapter to finding lasting solution to the seemingly unending Niger Delta question. Not one of the rhetorical promises made to the people of Niger Delta by Acting President Osinbajo was ever fulfilled or rather, is yet to be fulfilled.

Some of us, however, suspected that the Osinbajo was neither interested in proffering solution to the Niger Delta question but to start a clandestine move to build his political capital ahead of 2019 Presidential election having read his body language.

As Vice President and sensing that President Buhari is/may be medically unfit to stand for re-election in 2019, Professor Yemi Osinbajo shifted his attention to build network in the north all for 2019.

On Thursday April 13, he went to Adamawa state to acquire the title of "Jagaban of Adamawa Emirate". Only yesterday, he went to Cross river state to collect another traditional title in Efik kingdom, Ada Idaha Ke Efik Eburutu. For what reason if not political?

While I recognize that the Nigeria Constitution gives Yemi Osinbajo the right to contest for any office, including the Presidency, I must also state that his clandestine moves to succeed Muhammadu Buhari in 2019 is counterproductive to the interest of Nigerians and threat to the unity of our country, this is aside his sheer incompetency in public service since he assumed office as Vice President, Chairman of National Planning Commission and Chairman of National Economic Council.

This article is not to talk about his preference for employing only people of his Yoruba ethnic group as Personal Aides, all these are stories for some other time. This article is strictly about the injustice that his Presidency will mean to the rest of the country if we allow it to materialise.

1. HIS PRESIDENCY IS UNJUST TO THE SOUTH
In the history of Nigeria, the Southwest and Yoruba nation have led the country for a combined period of 11 years and 11 months; Chief Olusegun Obasanjo held sway for 11 years and 8 months (8 years as President and 3 years and 8 months as Military ruler) while Ernest Shonekan held sway for 3 months.

Meanwhile, the South-south only led Nigeria for only 5 years and 25 days through Goodluck Jonathan, while the Southeast has NEVER led the country in Executive capacity save the 7 months under the military reign of General Aguiyi Ironsi.

Under this present democratic dispensation, SW and Yoruba nation has led the country for 8 years and has been occupying the Vice President office since 2015.

The Southsouth led the country for only 5 years and 25 days and occupied the office of Vice President for 3 years through Dr. Goodluck Jonathan.

The Southeast has neither produced the President nor the Vice President.

Being a multi-ethnic region, it will be highly unfair for one region and ethnic group to seek to occupy the slot of the South in the Presidency in 2019 irrespective of whether it is the office of the President or the Vice President. It will amount to injustice to the ethnic nationalities in the South save the Yoruba for Yemi Osinbajo to succeed Buhari in 2019..

2. HIS PRESIDENCY IS UNJUST TO THE NORTH:
Since the return of this democratic dispensation in 1999, while the South enjoyed power for a total of 13 years (SW 8, SS 5), while the north only did for 5 years and counting through late Umaru Musa Yar’adua (3 years) and Muhammadu Buhari (2 years and counting). If the status quo remains till 2019, the north will haul a meager combined period of 7 years; a far cry when compared with the 13 years that the South held sway.

It is both morally and politically just that the North be allowed to produce the President of Nigeria come 2019 for another 4 years period. We must realize that injustice is injustice anywhere. Allowing Osinbajo, a Yorubaman/Southerner to succeed Buhari in 2019 will only cause disaffection among those in the northern part of the country. There will be feelings of marginalization will crept in. This is a situation the country cannot afford to entertain at this period.

MY SUPPORT FOR NORTH/SOUTHEAST TICKET IN 2019
Nigeria belongs to everybody, it does not belong to a section of the country. While it is fair for power to remain in the north, it is also fair for the Southeast to be part of the equation after years of absence. The only way to allow justice prevail is for a North/Southeast Presidency in 2019.

This arrangement, I strongly believe will calm the nerves of the people of the Southeast, give the Igbo people a sense of ownership in the Nigeria project and a sense of belonging in the affairs of Nigeria.

The Yoruba nation has always stood for justice, I am optimistic that they will stand for what is right come 2019. I have no doubt in my mind that they will not oppose the aspiration of a credible aspirant from the northern extraction and an Igbo man to assume the office of the President and Vice President respectively in 2019.

Sensual:


Jonathan was a mere VP when he defeated buhari.
Buhari has nothing good to show when it comes to leadership. He was a traitor and a dictator, and with the way things are going under his leadership now, Majority of Nigerians will rather vote a madman as president than the dullard.
Politics is not just all about who are mates and whatnot, it's also about who connects with the people the most, and that's what osinbajo has started doing. Interacting with market women at Garki, going to calabar, administering projects etc... he is paying way for his political future already, that's if he wants to run.

People are loving him to the detriment of the cabal.
So stay there and be comparing mates while osinbajo becomes your next president.
This was exactly how Buhari grabbed the masses. Oh the irony grin
Your knowledge of politics is laughable. GEJ had a considerable support from the North and South West to win the 2011 election. Buhari was an ANPP candidate then. His party never had a chance in Yorubaland, so the votes that would have gone his way was shared between Ribadu (ACN) and GEJ (PDP). His Alliance with ACN gave him his 2015 triumph. Osinbajo doesn't stand a chance. In fact, not even against Nuhu Ribadu. And who told you majority of Nigerians hate Buhari? grin. I am not in support of him re-running tho.

MayorofLagos:


You are well spoken but you are not well taught in politics. You don't allow or give Presidential office. Aspirants must invest themselves. If Ibo wants to be President what are they erecting currently in the political landscape to secure that interest?
The Ijaw militants did worse than whatever IPOB guys are doing but they felt at home after Jonathan's VP ascension.

SuperS1Panther:


Bros you are very funny.

Where is it stated in our constitution that Power must be by rotation? Was it not a political arrangement by the devilish PDP party.

Power does not drop on the laps of anybody, you work for it, you build bridges, you go into strategic alliances etc. A sample of preaching of hate against others is what you saw with the killing South East Devt Comm Bill. Does SE needs the bIll, in my hearts of heart I know they do, bu with their connivance over the Bill on Lagos, I was up for tit-for-tat. That is politics. No sentiments and no emotions.

Any SE VP or Presidential candidate as at today will be a political liability rather than an asset from the perspective of other regions.

Mark my words, no political CR7 that knows his onions will make that mistake. The level of mistrust for them is high, their backstabbing is legendary and their garrulous nature is unfancied by anybody.

For now it is easier for a Berom man to become a President than for Nigeria to have a VP that is Igbo.
Quote me anywhere, the north will Support a North/East ticket ahead of North/SS or North/SW. Even the SS will support a North/East ticket.

Talking about the SEDC bill that was killed, wasn't the pro SW Lagos Bill killed as well? You forget so soon?

Personally, I had also wanted the NEDC bill killed and NDDC Act repealed.

Nigerians are solidly behind him only if he can convince us.

Maybe you studied Political science but you do not know politics and the art of it.

If PMB re-contest in 2019, forget it there is no credible northerner whether living or dead that can has his support base. Also remember that Politics rewards Loyalty.

For now just sit down and watch.

This is how Nigerians keep focusing on region vis-a-vis presidency. No mention of qualification or what the candidates would bring to the table.

I can see we won't be making much progress anytime soon.
You don't get! Nigeria is vast too diversed for regional politics not to come into play. At least each region has capable hands. It is left for us to decide which candidate get our votes

Bros you are very funny.

Where is it stated in our constitution that Power must be by rotation? Was it not a political arrangement by the devilish PDP party.

Power does not drop on the laps of anybody, you work for it, you build bridges, you go into strategic alliances etc. A sample of preaching of hate against others is what you saw with the killing South East Devt Comm Bill. Does SE needs the bIll, in my hearts of heart I know they do, bu with their connivance over the Bill on Lagos, I was up for tit-for-tat. That is politics. No sentiments and no emotions.

Any SE VP or Presidential candidate as at today will be a political liability rather than an asset from the perspective of other regions.

Mark my words, no political CR7 that knows his onions will make that mistake. The level of mistrust for them is high, their backstabbing is legendary and their garrulous nature is unfancied by anybody.

For now it is easier for a Berom man to become a President than for Nigeria to have a VP that is Igbo.

u are just blinded with bitterness against Igbos

Bro, this is one blackmail that can never move me.

Yorubas only recently occupied the Presidency for 8 unbroken years and VP for 2 years (and counting) of the 18 years of this dispensation. The North were begged to allow Jonathan in 2011 (which naturally should be their turn in the interest of equity and justice), while the Southeast is yet to produce a VP not to talk of the Presidency.

If you are fair you should be championing a northern Presidency and Igbo Presidency if you are for the interest of the South.

This is justice, Nigeria belongs to all of us.

Tonye, I initially condemned your opinion, then doing a political mathematics based on your suggestion, I would say for political justice to prevail in a country like ours that places priority on political balancing act than effective leadership, i submit to your suggestion.

A North-East ticket is what will douse and appease frayed nerves.
The irony of a nation.

Mr.,Barkanista. With due respect, we the Biafrans neither want nor need your vp nor presidency. All we want is freedom, Biafra.


Yes we need Biafra but before then, Nigeria must be restructured and Igbos rule.

If these 2 aren't granted, bye bye to one Nigeria

It seems Tonye has a new Paymaster grin

My sentiments when I read the piece. I would have believed he was trying to put forward an objective argument, if he hadn't tried so hard to badmouth the VP/Acting President. That was totally unnecessary in making his point. Which suggests that there is more to this than meets the eye.

My thoughts exactly. Nearly every contributor to this thread, from the OP onward, seems to have been so heavily afflicted with tribalism as to be utterly incapable of logical thinking. Of what use is a President coming from any particular region if the person doesn't know what he's doing? How has Buhari made life better for the average person in his own native NW region? Is tribalistic pride in a President's ethnicity going to put food on anybody's table, give them better roads, provide them with decent and affordable hospitals, or put their children in better schools?

Instead of demanding candidates who advocate sensible policies that will lead to faster economic growth and higher FDI, so many cretins are on here going on about how it's the turn of one region or another, when what they're really talking about is how politicians from particular regions are using the same old appeals to tribalism to jostle for their chance to steal from the government till: it's simply nonsense to say "the north", "the SW" or "the SE" wants something or other, when it's actually small coteries of politicians from such regions who are doing the wanting. Nigeria has had 56 years of such elite manipulations, with virtually no economic development to show for it, but the very victims of such mismanagement are on here clamoring for more of the same!

I've said it before, but the Nigerian masses have no one else to blame for their predicament but themselves, for getting the abysmal levels of "leadership" they deserve for their idiotic tribalism.
Okay, consider this example: Let's say we go for a credible and detribalized Nigerian like Okonjo Iweala in 2019 and she gets elected. Then after 8 years, another credible candidate rise from the East, are we also going to vote for him/her solely based on credibility?? See, the truth is ONE NIGERIA is a fluke without the zoning policy. I hate it, but it can't just be avoided.

What is wrong with these people? Why are people like this for God's sake? On another rare occasion we have someone who seems to have a national appeal (another one being his principal PMB, at least when he started off), and yet some people have already started stoking up North vs South and South vs East... Why do we do this to ourselves in this country? The Ag President comes across as one who knows his onions and is widely loved not coz of his tribe or faith but by the strides he's being making, why can't we just allow the man take charge and let this country be better for the love of God? The time he would spend would also give our Eastern brothers the time necessary to mend broken fences with the North and West whose support they need if they are to rule this country since politics is indeed a game of numbers and schemes

I am not blinded with bitterness against them, They hate us and we equally hate them back in good measures. You cannot be preaching hate against others and be expecting love in return. Mba, kolewerk!!!!!

Your actions and speeches against Yorubas has made us to draw the battleline with Igbos whether jews or xtians, we do not have any apology for that.

Please bookmark the thread and call it up in future.

If the Lord has ordained it that Acting President Osinbajo will become the President in 2019, no one can change it.
Nigerians are solidly behind him only if he can convince us.
The man has the pedigree, honesty, character and the energy
Zoning has been failing us since donkey years
We need capable hands, capable brains and energetic president who know what he is doing. He can come from anywhere
not some 'goro' chewing slowpoke who will be ruling 200m people with sentiment


Stop insulting God

God does not support injustice

Excellent argument, trouble is your views are 2 years late!

Why did you not make this argument when Buhari was preferred over Jonathan by the South West?
Stop making it sound like GEJ was a better candidate. It was a choice we had to made, given the level of corruption and ineptitude perpetrated under him. With the level of excesses we had under GEJ, we should have recorded the most noteworthy progress in our entire national history. He didn't make sense when we had excess, how much difference would he have made when things went down
