WHY NDI IGBO AND IMO PEOPLE MUST VOTE FOR BUHARI AND AGAINST JONATHAN FOR PRESIDENT IN 2015, (MAKA ODINMA NDI IGBO)
IGBOS LEST WE FORGET
President Goodluck Jonathan was elected in the year 2011 with over one million votes from Imo state. Since after his election as President he has only visited Imo State twice; to receive Governor Achike Udenwa into PDP from APC; and to ask for votes for his re-election as President for the 2015. He has not commissioned any project in Imo State in his four year tenure as President of Nigeria. Except a mortuary he built at Federal Medical Centre.
Jonathan in the past six years has not been able to complete Owerri – Omerelu road, about thirty six kilometers of road, a mere six kilometers of road in Imo State per annum. He left roads neigbouring to Imo state in a state of disrepair. These roads include but are not limited to;
1. Umuahia to Ikot Ekpene road,
2. Aba to Ikot Ekpene road,
3. Enugu to Onitsha double carriage road, one lane has been abandoned
4. Enugu to Umuahia to Aba to Port Harcourt road
5. Uyo to Calabar road; and embarrassingly;
6. Ahoada to Mbiama to Yenegoa road the home state of President Jonathan. Almost all these roads lead from one PDP state to the other. President Jonathan is incurably incompetent. Re-electing him will take Nigeria to the drains.
7. Electricity generation has dropped from 3750 mega watts in 1999 when PDP came into power in 1999 to under 2000 mega watts in 2015. This is after PDP misrule has wasted about six trillion naira in electricity generation.
Despite Jonathan’s deceitful Azikiwe and Ebele names, claims of nearness to Ndi Igbo, and the fact that Igbo votes played the most significant role in making and sustaining him as President, neither President Jonathan nor his people have in the past voted nor supported any Igbo to held Nigeria’s highest position of governance.
The facts speak for itself.
1. From 1959 to 1966 when Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe led and ran on the NCNC platform, President Jonathan and his people voted against Dr. Azikiwe.
2. From 1967 to 970 when Ndi Igbo fought for the independent state of Biafra, it was Jonathan and his people who led the biggest sabotage against Biafra.
3. After the Biafran war, in 1970 properties belonging to Ndi Igbo were seized by Jonathan and his people as abandoned property under the leadership of Alfred Diette Spiff, then Governor of Rivers state and presently the Amanyanabo of Twon Brass. Senate President David Mark then an Army Captain was the chief enforcer.
4. In the years 1979 and 1983, the great Zik of Africa and Owelle of Onitsha Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe ran for President of Nigeria under NPP, Jonathan and his people voted against him and NPP.
5. Recently in 1999 and 2003 when Dr. Alex Ekwueme former Vice President of Nigeria ran for President of Nigeria on the platform of PDP, President Jonathan then Deputy Governor of Bayelsa state and his Governor D.S.P. Alamesiagha mobilized and voted massively against Dr. Ekwueme.
6. If in 2003 Jonathan loved Ndi Igbo, why did he and his people also vote against Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu who also ran for President under APGA?
7. On November 4, 2003, when Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu was honoured during his Seventieth birthday at Dan Anyiam Stadium, Owerri, Gen Muhammed Buhari was present to honour him in life.
8. Jonathan only honoured Dim Emeka Ojukwu in death because it served his political interest. He also deliberately decided not to attend his burial due to the hatred he has for the Igbos.
9. The APC government in Lagos state declared a one day public holiday in Lagos in honour of Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu and held a special funeral ceremony for Ojukwu at Tafawa Balewa Square Lagos.
10. Lest we forget, it was the PDP government which President Jonathan has been one of the Leaders that tear gassed Dr Chuba Okadigbo to death during prodemocracy marches led by General Buhari and Dim Ojukwu against PDP rigging of the 2003 elections.
11. General Buhari led the army in the early eighties to crush the Matasine religious insurgents. A vote for him will result in the defeat of Boko Haram
Voting for President Jonathan will deny Ndi Igbo the chance to produce the President of Nigeria in the next twelve years. If Jonathan is re-elected, he will be President for four years after which he will hand over to a Northerner who will hold power for eight years. Voting for Buhari and APC rather than Jonathan remains the shorter route for an Igboman to become President of Nigeria. Buhari will only be President for a maximum period of eight years after which Presidency will return to the South East.
These are hard facts that speak for itself.
The Igbo should we forget the past? God forbid!
Those who cannot remember the past are condemn to repeat it. __ George Santayana (1863 – 1952).
