Busted: ‘North will not cede power to South in 2023’

…accuses APC chieftains in the S/East of abandoning Kalu

…thanks Northern elders for support Kalu when he was in prison


The Arewa Youths Consultative Forum, AYCF, has reiterated that the North still wanted the presidency in 2023 and would not cede power to the South.

President of the AYCF, Shettima Yerima, said in an interview on Tuesday that it irritates the entire North for some southern politicians to think Northerners will leave power for them in 2023.

“How can you think we will cede power to the South in 2023? The North still want the presidency. The south is in charge of the economy and they have everything, so why would they want to take away the only thing we have.

“What would you call that? Even if we are ceding power to the south in 2023, we should be considering people like Orji Uzor Kalu. He is someone the north trusts and the Northern elders will give him their full support. Most Nigerians don’t know that Kalu’s incarceration emanated from conspiracy and betrayal from his own party, the APC,” he said.

Yerima accused Ohanaeze and some chieftains of the All Progressives Congress, APC, of conspiracy during the travails of Senator Kalu Orji Kalu and thanked the Northern elders for standing behind the former Governor of Abia state and Chief Whip of the Senate, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu during his six months incarceration at Kuje custodial centre.

He accused the leaders of All Progressives Congress (APC) from the south of conspiring against Kalu because of 2023 presidential ambitions.

He also slammed the President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Nnia Nwodo and its leadership for keeping silent during the entire period of Kalu’s travails

He cautioned the North over the dangers of abandoning the former Governor in custody, adding that Northern elders must be commended for “standing firm for Kalu” who he referred to as their “long time ally, brother and friend.”

“We specifically thank Chairman of Northern Elders Forum, Prof. Ango Abdullahi, for proving critics wrong on the North’s stand on Kalu,” he said.

Yerima also thanked the Supreme Court and Justice Muhammad Liman of the Federal High Court for standing on the path of justice.

“It is very important to appreciate the justices of the Supreme Court and Justice Liman of the Federal High Court for their moral and professional courage to uphold justice. Kalu’s release is a victory for decency, for patriotism and respect for the rule of law. They once again proved that Judiciary is the survival of democracy”.

“However, we question the usefulness of Ohanaeze Ndigbo to Igbo elite. It is a disappointment that Ohanaeze under the leadership of Nwodo specifically did nothing to support their own, yet they want a Nigerian president of Igbo extraction.”

“Please where will this president come from? Kalu is one of their biggest assets but they all kept quiet. It’s only the Ohanaeze youths that spoke strongly for Kalu but Nwodo and his members shied away from the real leadership they ought to render. Who knows if they were also paid to betray their own? It’s very shameful of them”.

“It irritates the entire North for some southern politicians to think they will leave power for them (South) come 2023. How can you think we will cede power to the South in 2023?” He queried the journalists. “The North still wants the presidency. The south is in charge of the economy and they have everything, so why would they want to take away the only thing we have."

“Some leaders of the party from the south who have become desperate about 2023 presidency wanted to kick Kalu out of the race through Machiavellian way. They don’t like open competition. I was surprised they have no love. They are full of hatred and they want to be President. The amount of hatred in that party is so much. What’s exactly Kalu’s offence? 2023? Look at what is also happening in Edo state. It’s a pity”

“I remember when Kalu as a governor initiated the idea of publishing the state accounts on the print media. That showed a lot. I think the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, should have a rethink on Kalu’s case. The resources they have wasted on pursuing the case for the past 13 years. Is it worth it?

“My advice is that they should sheathe their swords and let Kalu be. They should not allow some desperate politicians to dictate to them what they should do,” he said.

No need... They can keep it as much as they like, nonsense! As if they have another choice.

Watch as Tinubu's ambition go up in smoke.
Yorubas had their chance with Obasanjo.
Now it's either an Igbo man or we give our votes to Atiku.

Mtcheww.

Who cares if you hold it forever
Will that stop the bandits in the North?

That is there problem, despite power it is one rice person among 0.5m almajiris, insecurity, running to the south, no substantial development.

I'm sure the betrayers from a particular region will queue up behind Atiku or whichever Northerner they choose to do the bidding out of envy of SW presidency in 2023.

Na their way be that, reasons the Northerners feel they are born to rule.

Allow them rule till eternity...their people will still carry plates around,live in thick forest with cows,move around polishing shoes,doing gateman,carrying garbages and scavenging...power with no presence of economy,is powerless.

Yeye NEWS

meavox:

You see my brethren of South and Middle Belt, Fulani are listening to their dead leader Usman Dan Fodio who lied, telling them that South is their CONQUERED TERRITORY and Middle Belt are their WILLING TOOLS and that we, the owners of the land must never taste power or determine our destiny.

Here are Fulani uneducated youth, telling us grown men what our future and our children's future will be under their power.


In fact, Afenifere and Yoruba youth have already come out against this continued Arewa nonsense.

Solution = SEPARATION FROM AREWA.

The mallams up North still think we are in the analogue age of Dan fodio, reason they keep yapping nonsense from their mouths all thanks to some southerners who play second fiddle to them everytime.

A region with the highest population (mostly illiterates) yet contributes less than 10% of revenue to government feel they are at liberty to monopoloze governance in Nigeria. I feel very sorry for them

“Even if we are ceding power to the south in 2023, we should be considering people like Orji Uzor Kalu. He is someone the north trusts and the Northern elders will give him their full support. Most Nigerians don’t know that Kalu’s incarceration emanated from conspiracy and betrayal from his party, the APC.”

This statement tells a whole lot..

- Orji Uzor Kalu is against IPOB.
- OUK presidency would not be supported in SE.
- OUK presidency would rattle SW APC.
- OUK presidency would rattle SE PDP.
- OUK vs Atiku is win/win for the North
- OUK vs Obi would be very tight because of bias for Obi from some SW section and some part of the North.

With all the disadvantages, OUK clinching presidency would owe all gratitude to the North and would be just another proxy to the continuation of how Nigeria is currently being run...

This is chess...

Acf ,ohaneze and afenifere will be acting like their opinion matters when it comes to power

I thought ACF, AFENIFERE, OHANEZE , endorsed Atiku how market

Bunch of noise makers

Exactly.

All these ethnic/zonal/regional associations are the most powerless organisations when it comes to national politics.

As you rightly stated, these associations supported athifku, but ipob miscreants are still waiting for his cuming till date.

they re the most useless organization in Nigeria. What they do is to collect money from the government in power to fund their useless organization. They re toothless bull dogs. They can't even influence their own members not to talk of politicians and masses.
PDP government use to pamper them with funds federal slots in the govt. but but since Buhari took over, Bubu give them middle finger thats why they criticize every moves he makes.
They will only queue behind highest bidder, dem chop Atiku dollars clean mouth

Nahh

As a proud son of the middle-belt, except the SE is given the presidential ticket, I will vote a northern candidate come rain come shine if Jesus tarry to come and keeps me alive come 2023.

They should rather concentrate on the killings in their region and forget about becoming president again

Since independence has any region been in power more than the North? Now look at the naked poverty rate, illiteracy, kidnappings, terrorism, banditry, poor health care system, displaced persons and social crimes in your region. Being power hungry does not exempt you from being in the pit of regional destruction. I hope one day u will still have a region called northern Nigeria

These power hungry Northern savages are no match for a united South.
The North knows this,
The South knows this.
But a particular set of people are hell bent on sabotaging the prospect of a united south.
Until their brain box is re-configured, the North will continue to rule till thy kingdom come.

Make Yoruba man come answer president in 2023 make we see.

Ok

See who is talking about betrayers. When you queued up behind Buhari against GEJ, it wasn't betraying abi? You only want a united south for your favour.
