Before You Blame The Igbos,consider These Options by nazablossom(f): 6:51am On Feb 26, 2019
I am not a political person but I want to air my view concerning the results of the election so far. Some people are blaming Igbos for low turn out and all without putting into consideration these factors :

1.Election Postponement : So may Igbos live outside South East,they travelled to vote but the election was postponed. Most of them are traders that cannot live there businesses to wait for another one week, So, they went back to their base and didn't return to vote, hence the low turnout


2:Military Threats: There were military presence all over South East with the aim of shooting citizens without blinking. Igbos love their lives that they are not ready to die for Nigeria, die for Biafra? Some might, but not Nigeria,so they stayed indoor.

3.VP: Peter is vying for VP not President, so it doesn't mean so much to an average Igbo person and he is popular only in Anambra State.

There are some other factors also. But people that buried Atiku are his Northern Brothers.The anticipated vote for him were not met thereby reducing his chances. This election is between A Northerner and a Northerner not a Northerner and an Igbo man
So, if we really want to apportion blame, channel it to the Norths. They are the one that Failed Atiku.

Why should anyone blames Igbo when Atiku lost his own polling unit, struggled to win his state.

Had Buhari relied too much on SW votes, we might probably be having different scenario.

Charity they said begins from home. Atiku is not fully recognized at home

Please we don't need this kind of nonsense posts now. Blame igbos for what? Why does it sound as if you are apologising? This is a democracy, everyone is free to support whatever candidates he wants whether the candidate wins or loses. Stop all this nonsense blame game now

Did Atiku really believed he would be Presisent?
If yes, president of what?

Hmmm.

He would have learnt by now that there is a limit to what money can do. You can buy your party chair, your party ticket, the party people etc but you cannot buy Nigeria

Nonsense and ingredients!

SE shouldn't be taken serious! They keep shouting marginalization but not ready to do what it takes to change the tide! Even the Yorubas did better, what a shame!

Majority of Yorubas are poorly educated and thats why they always blame Igbos for all their failures in life.

Why would an ungrateful Yoruba expect n Igbo to support him again in the new Nigeria?

Acclaimed educated people who don't know that people have the right to support any candidate of their choice?


Yorubas have certificate but are poorly educted so I don't blame them all.
