Igbo Must Produce President In 2019 To Pacify Biafra Agitators – Ohanaeze Youths by DONSMITH123(m): 4:56pm On Jun 13, 2017 |
Ihuoma Chiedozie, Enugu The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council, the youth wing of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, on Tuesday, said Ndigbo must produce the country’s President in 2019. A Northerner could be the Vice President in 2019, according to the Igbo youths. The Ohanaeze Youth wing, which spoke after a meeting in Enugu, said the Biafra agitation would take an unprecedented turn if a Nigerian President of Igbo extraction was not the outcome of the 2019 general elections. “It is Igbo President 2019 or Biafra 2020,” OYC, the umbrella body of Igbos youths, declared in a communique signed by the General Secretary, Mazi Okwu Nnabuike. Stressing that Igbos would no longer play ‘second fiddle in Nigerian politics’, the Ohanaeze youth wing said it has mobilised all its resources towards the actualization of the long-standing quest for an ‘Igbo President’ in 2019. The irate youths noted that their position on the 2019 elections was largely informed by the North’s opposition to calls for restructuring, as well as the quit ultimatum given to Igbos living in the North by a coalition of Northern groups. “A situation where no Igbo has been allowed close to the seat of power for decades is sheer injustice and hatred, whereas other geopolitical zones have been taking turns either as military or civilian presidents. “More annoying is the fact that the North, a major beneficiary in this direction, has bluntly refused to heed the call for restructuring, which has been identified as the panacea to the many socio-political problems plaguing the nation. “Besides, they (North) have also not only continued to express disdain over the demand for Biafra by IPOB and MASSOB but have also ordered Ndigbo out of the North based on these agitations,” the communique said. Although the major pro-Biafra groups, the Indigenous People of Biafra and the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra, have said they are not interested in the ‘Igbo President project’, the Ohanaeze youth wing said a Nigerian President of Igbo extraction would pacify all Igbos, including the agitators. “Remember that former President Olusegun Obasanjo have urged Nigerians to beg the Biafra agitators – only a Nigerian President of Igbo extraction will appease Igbos. Otherwise, Biafra agitation will be inevitable. “If there is any conspiracy against Igbo presidency, it will bring Biafra into existence,” the communique said. The communique added, “One now wonders why Ndigbo will continue to be treated in this manner. “Two days ago, the Acting President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, re-echoed the fact that Nigeria is in a marriage. He was quoted as saying ‘Our nation has been in marriage for a while now. Sometimes there are quarrels within that marriage. Sometimes there is disagreement. What is important is that you must remain together. You must remain united.’ “It does appear from the above that Ndigbo has perpetually remained the sacrificial lamb to keep this forced marriage together. They have remained victims of an abusive marriage, often beaten and cheated by the husband. “We have resolved today that this grave injustice cannot continue. “It is Igbo Presidency in 2019 with a Vice President from the North or nothing. “We are not ready to be treated with levity and disdain in this country any longer, and for that we are calling on all Igbo sons and daughters, both at home and in the Diaspora, to key into this project.” http://punchng.com/igbo-must-produce-president-in-2019-to-pacify-biafra-agitators-ohanaeze-youths/ 10 Likes 3 Shares |

The Igbos should get a competent candidate and he should exercise his franchise as a citizen. The Ndigbo should stop sounding like election in Nigeria is by appointment (well, sometimes possible with rigging). Get the best and Nigerians will vote him if he merits it. 83 Likes 8 Shares |

The so-called Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Council, the youth wing of Ohanaeze Ndigbo that is hungered for the nonsensical presidency of the cesspit called Niger-Area can jump off the cliff for all I care. 15 Likes 2 Shares |

Nne5: Here's the thing , our constitution doesn't rotate presedency. So its not like its the Igbos turn to be president . Or that an igbo person 'must ' be president Anybody can be president if the person enjoys majority support and he identifys with a popular party You can't threaten people to vote for you And if that's how they want to take it , lets see why that leads us . 85 Likes 7 Shares |

Nne5:contest and win election, Apart from coup which Ibo introduced by the way is there any other route? Ibo are not more important than Efik Tivs Edos Igala and many other Nigerian groups. No one will GIVE Ibo president. They must contest elections You do not force people to like you with anti social behaviour you must learn diplomacy and good manners. People do not like Ibo because they lack social skills in dealing with people and talk anyhow without thinking far ahead Ibo presidency will never happen. That is the bitter truth and it is not because people hate the Ibo but the Ibo are doing nothing to win people over. Let me sum up the Ibo, they are like a man who thinks he is rich and handsome and arrogant who expects women to toast him and cannot understand why they don't. First Ibo need to build genuine respectful relationships. The Ibo man must tell himself the very bitter truth. He is very well travelled not just in Nigeria but in many other countries. Why is he disliked everywhere is he more successful than Syrians lebanese Chinese or Indians? No it is his arrogant disrespectful and uncouth ways. Ibo president is a foolish pipe dream Ibo must take responsibility like adults. They stuck with PDP while others took a risk and created APC. THEY LOST and now expect those who invested in APC to hand it over on a platter? If it was so easy those people could have just joined PDP . People like Amaechi took immense personal risk and some jokers think all they have to do is shout Biafra marginalisation and they will get what they want without sacrificing anything. You lost out in 2015 !Good morning This it the typical childishness that characterizes their thinking. A profound unwillingness to accept responsibility for the consequences of one's actions. IF Buhari could do it so can the Ibo but by nature they believe in reaping where they have not sown and lack the patience and discipline to go into opposition. All these tantrums will not work. If you want to leave we will call your bluff. In 2019 make Biafra an electoral issue in SE and only vote those committed to a referendum 175 Likes 30 Shares |
