Denying Igbo Presidency for Trying to Break Away from Nigeria Bleeds My Heart – Olusegun Obasanjo
Former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo has expressed deep frustration over claims that the Igbo people are being denied the presidency because of their alleged attempts to break away from Nigeria. In a recent statement, Obasanjo rejected such reasoning, calling it “nonsense” and stating that no region of Nigeria has been free from secessionist sentiments at some point in the country’s history.
The former president, known for his outspoken nature, emphasized that it is unjust to single out the Igbo for seeking secession when, in fact, various regions of Nigeria, at different times, have expressed similar desires to break away from the federation.
Obasanjo’s statement has reignited the conversation about equity in Nigeria’s political system, with many calling for equal opportunities for all ethnic groups in the quest for national leadership. His call for fairness resonates with those advocating for an Igbo presidency, a cause that has gained significant momentum in recent years.
In conclusion, Obasanjo’s passionate defense of the Igbo people’s right to the presidency serves as a powerful reminder of the need for national unity, inclusivity, and justice in Nigeria’s political structure.
Spiritual leader Primate Elijah Ayodele warns the APC against being too confident ahead of the 2027 election.
He shared “Overconfidence will kill APC; they will be too overconfident, and that will be the party’s weakness in the election. They will turn Tinubu to a demi-god, but it will make them lose the election. They believe money can do everything, but it will fail in the 2027 election,” Ayodele said.
Ayodele has repeatedly warned the APC not to assume that its current political strength will automatically translate into victory in 2027.
Politician Atiku Abubakar claims that President Bola Tinubu is 90 and says he can prove it.
He shared in a recent interview that he has evidence and can prove it, while also stating that he can serve Nigeria better and sharing how he has the qualities to be Nigeria’s leader.
“You have a President who is 90 years old now and sick and I am healthy and strong. So why won’t I make myself available to serve my country?”
“You went and voted for someone who is 80, I mean 90 years old. How old is President Bola, 90?”
Nigerian businessman Isaac Fayose speaks on the upcoming election and shares that it has basically started now with who the people support.
While backing Peter Obi, he shared “2027 election campaign has officially kicked off. I’m happy because it’s time to take our country back. Recall that President Tinubu once told us that if he doesn’t provide electricity, we should not vote for him. APC is a failed government. Let’s start a door-to-door campaign for Mr Peter Obi. The (OK) ticket is all we want.”
He urged Nigerians to start showing their support and vote.
