An Igbo president is good but Biafra is better

Who Presidency epp

Igbos are not interested in presidency. We need restructuring. Simple and short.

The north and south west that have held the presidency between themselves since independence are shitholes riddled with crime, terrorism, illiteracy and poor quality of life.

Edwin Clark should not use Igbos to be popular now biko. Same Edwin Clark we heard fought against Peter Odili becoming President in 2007 because he was Igbo

helinues:


So you people wants Nigeria to break up because Apc is not zoning their presidency to SE or because you are too afraid to ask the presidency from the party you guys have been loyal to?

Make Una stop confusing thunder now

Una arguments sometimes dey confuse confusionists

Binikingdowm:
What about a Benin man or Ibibio man or tiv person? Must it always be hausa-yoruba-igbo?

QuotaSystem:


That's exactly why you're assured of 97% of our Biafran votes at our Ruga Polling Unit .

You're welcome

mildflame:

Quit the childish rhetorics, 2023 is for Igbos or South south forget what others think start preparation now

Ojiofor:


Igbo presidency is a national problem that should be solved collectively irrespective of party differences.

seguno2:
If Nigeria is to survive as an entity beyond 2023, we must have an Igbo as our President.
No more no less.
The Yorubas won’t miss the opportunity to get out of the slavery country that Luggard created this time around.

mrvitalis:

The funny thing your likes don't understand is ...without zoning a southerner can't rule nigeria

So your hate for Igbo's should not cloud your reason ....south west have ruled ,south south have
Its only natural they support south east as south east supported them

The thing now should be which Igbo would south west n south south be comfortable with that should be the argument

I'm of the opinion south west n south south should nominate 5 names they are comfortable with

isthatso:


igbo presidency is an igbo problem.

Caseless:
We are just watching like the ekiti bat. They now beg for unity because their "secessional blackmail" hasn't worked.

If they want us to take them seriously, they should advance Rochas' cause as he's the only one we can support in the north.

Who is the Igbo leader or candidates

Ikpeazu or Okorocha ?

The Igbo nation are bedevilled with bad governance, crimes and nepotism.

GEJ, a prototype of SE & SS is a failure.

Opportunity gone forever !

Adaibeku:

Igbos are PDP they are anti APC
They should forget APC ticket it's for people who built & believe in the party & the last time I checked igbos believe apc is an Islamic & satanic party. now they want the same party they have so hated make to make them the president
Confused idiots









Let Apc bring out Igbo first ,leave Pdp alone

mrvitalis:

Its not about Igbo ...its about zone ...not Igbo fault south east is 100% Igbo

Dpharisee:


There is Igala in Anambra and Idoma in Enugu. It's not 100% Igbo

isthatso:


igbo presidency is an igbo problem.


Igbos have always beeen aligned with the center since independence. During the 1st republic they alligned with Balewa, during the 2nd republic they alligned with Shagari, from 1999 they were with PDP. The only time theyve not been at the center they want to bring the country down, stoking hate up and down. they should go and sit down.

Ttipsy:
its not a SE, issue. 2k23 Igbo presidency is called for. it's should be prioritised

mrvitalis:
Chief Edwin Clark, a nationalist who served under former Head of State, General Yakubu Gowon, as Federal Commissioner for Information, in this interview, speaks on the need for true federalism and why zoning of the nation’s presidency is paramount among other issues. Excerpts:

[/b]Let us talk about the state of the nation…
[b]
Things are very bad but we thank God that we are surviving and we remain united. The challenges are however many. Today, the country seems to be divided religiously and ethnically despite the fact that we all talk about unity. Security challenge is growing. The situation has not been effectively controlled. About four years ago, we were talking about Boko Haram in the North-East, and we felt that, with the promise made by the ruling party for ‘change’ and having the country being headed by a former military Head of State, Boko Haram would be a thing of the past. But, today, Boko Haram is still a problem. And apart from Boko Haram, we can see what is going on in the North-West, especially in Sokoto and Katsina. People are being killed, maimed and kidnapped. In Taraba, Plateau and Benue states, the situation is not different. We have, today, in the South, herdsmen ransacking everywhere, harassing maiming, kidnapping and raping women. Things are not normal.

[/b]Is this the Nigeria our heroes past foresaw when they fought for independence?[b]

I will say no because in the First Republic, even though we had some problems, the unity of Nigeria was very much guaranteed. During the pre-independence era, we were working together until 1953 when Tony Enahoro moved the motion for the independence of Nigeria and the Northern Region walked out of parliament. The British government invited Nigerian leaders to London for the 1954 and 1957 conferences and so on which led us to independence in 1960. During the period, there was peace and each of the regions was developing at its own pace while revenue allocation was based on what you produced in your area. You keep 50 percent of the allocation while the remaining 50 percent goes to the Federal Government. And of the 50 percent that goes to the Federal Government, 20 percent is kept by the Federal Government while the remaining 30 percent is shared among other regions. Until 1963 when the Mid-West Region was created, each of the regions had its own Constitution and Agent General in London. Today, you find that one of the houses acquired by the Western Nigerian government in those days is part of the Nigeria High Commission in London. Then, there was neither envy nor hatred. Both Muslims and Christians were living in peace and harmony. But when the Army struck, problem started. Then General Gowon came into power in 1966 and there was problem. The killing of prominent Nigerian politicians resulted into the counter-coup of July 1966, leading to the Aburi Accord in 1967 which did not materialise. General Gowon created 12 states after the civil war. So, today, we have 36 states including the Federal Capital. Perhaps, those who fought for independence in 1960 when we got it never envisaged that, 59 years after, Nigeria will still be so much divided and there would be many challenges. Now there is hunger; unemployment has risen to 23 percent; Fulani herdsmen carry AK 47 around and we were told they are from Libya, Burkina Faso and Mali among others and these people have been allowed to come into Nigeria untouched. The next thing we heard was that they wanted RUGA in the 36 states of the federation, meaning that these Fulani herdsmen would now be settled in the 36 states. Nigerians kicked against it, and it was suspended; but we hope it would be suspended forever because it could divide this country

[/b]What then are the chances of the South-West in 2023?[b]

They should stop thinking of becoming the President of Nigeria. What does Tinubu have to offer that the people of the South-East cannot offer? What is the justification for them to become the President of Nigeria? Is it because they belong to the APC? They should not be thinking of how to divide Nigeria. We must all unite and have respect for ourselves. The South-West should allow other people to have a taste of power. There is no way the South-West would be better than the South-East on the 2023 presidency.

[/b]What is the way forward?[b]

Let us practice true federalism in this country. Let every Nigerian have a sense of belonging. Without restructuring, the future is bleak. You remember the other day Mr. President said ‘if we do not kill corruption, corruption will kill us’. I also believe that if we do not restructure this country, non-restructuring of Nigeria will kill Nigeria. In a situation where some people feel they are superior to others, we don’t have a country. Nobody wants to be a slave to another person. Let the elders of the country meet from time to time to discuss the challenges of Nigeria. Like former President Olusegun Obasanjo, I have advocated that all stakeholders, including youths and women, have a roundtable to discuss the security of this country. What is happening in the North-East and North-West should not be regarded as a northern affair but a Nigerian affair because, sooner or later, it will happen to all of us.

Wow I never thought I'd see the day PaChukwudi44 alongside many other Ibos would admit they need and desire Ibo presidency after pretending for years on this forum not to care about it

Also never thought Nairaland would still be alive to witness PaChukwudi align and line up behind Northern presidency & campaign for another Arewa Leader to succeed our President in 2023 . I am enjoying this our new found brotherhood

I knew one day he would come around to his senses. Theres still his hope for other stubborn easterners like him.
