2023 : Northern Youths Beg Gov. Umahi To Contest For Presidency

By Wisdom Nwedene

Northern Youths in Jigawa State, on Saturday, pleaded with Governor David Nweze Umahi of Ebonyi State to contest for 2023 Presidency.

IGBERE TV reports that Umahi who was on working visit to Jigawa State was welcomed by thousands of youths in the State.

The Youth were holding ply cards with different inscriptions such as, "Umahi Is The Man We Know In 2023", Umahi, We Love Your Good Work in Ebonyi State ", etc.

However, Umahi has maintained that it is not yet time to reveal whether he will contest in 2023 or not as he focused on delivering good governance in Ebonyi State.

Speaking to journalists after he joined All Progressives Congress, APC, Umahi said "
In 2023, if God permits, I may be quitting politics, and I will be very satisfied because the miracles in Ebonyi state may just be the reason I was born in the first place and I will be bold, like Apostle Paul that says; “I have fought a good fight, I have finished the race.” Wait unto children and their generation, a crown of success because I believed that the foundation would have been laid for the greatness of this state, Ebonyi and so, everybody runs his destiny."

IGBERE TV had reported that Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State, on Saturday, officially commissioned Babura Township roads in Jigawa State constructed by the Jigawa State Governor, Alh. Mohammed Badaru Abubakar.

Speaking during the official commissioning of the road project, Governor Umahi says he has observed that the All Progressives Congress is grossly under-reported in terms of the achievements of its leaders across the country.

Governor Umahi who was thrilled by the giant strides of the Governor of Jigawa State, Alhaju Mohammed Badaru commended him for working hard to complement the efforts of Mr. President in National development.

"We have served in various National assignments together and I have come to realize that this man called calculator is but a gift to the nation. Within my short stay in Jigawa, I have seen roads of great quality which means he is a man of quality, roads that will last for many years, roads that are well maintained over a total of a thousand six hundred kilometers, this is unprecedented, this is something to be very grateful to God. He is a man of character and content, this State has become the microcosm of the macrocosm that Nigeria is looking for and I am very proud of you"

He called for a show of patriotism by Nigerian leaders to restore the confidence of citizens in the leadership.

Governor Umahi who during the visit inaugurated some roads like the 12km obubara road and other projects executed by the Alhaji Mohammed Badaru Administration challenged other leaders to take a clue from Jigawa State to improve the lots of the people.

He appreciated the Governor for achieving all he achieved silently without castigating other leaders even those in the opposition parties.

Earlier, the Governor of Jigawa State, Alhaji Mohammed Badaru, lauded Governor David Nweze Umahi for the massive Development in Ebonyi State describing him as a man of the people.

He also applauded him for always standing for the peace and unity of Nigeria.

Governor Badaru attributed the Development in the States to regular assistance and interventions by the Federal Government and commended President Muhammadu Buhari for always being ready to assist State Governments develop on their own.

"There is no village, there is no city in Jigawa State that we can not point at least one project done by our Administration, we will continue to push, God's willing, we will do more with your support.

"Our guest today shared a lot with me in common, first, we are all from the private sector. Second, his calculator is more powerful than mine.

"Even on our way coming, I have to learn a lot from him on the cost estimation of building roads with concrete that is cheaper, stronger and more life and if you have been to his place, you will see tremendously that what he has achieved is unprecedented"

"He is a man of courage, a man of the people, a man who cares always about the people.

"My good brother, the nation will remember what you have done and will remember your contribution in the NEC and will remember all you have contributed to moving this country forward and that is why today, we have him in my town to show him that he is part of me and I am part of him and that is why I bring him to my own town to commission these roads.

"Umahi has done so well in the development of his state that we have seen, I have visited and is so amazed and I am very sure that from the language and interaction that he is a man of good character."

Contest Under which political party?

Umahi is a good candidate. Unfortunately his people don't seem to be drawn to APC

Commendable, considering this happenstance of youth of northern extraction giving their support to an eastern leader. The last of this was in the first republic.

Go through the Nigeria historical archive and prove my claim.

Yet I stand my ground: Politicians don't have the answer ( just a fraction of it as it concerns policy making) to the woos of the country.

This man is just a foolish man, only you between Northerners, be deceiving yourself.

How many are they?

Our incoming president backed by Buhari and the cabal

Paid Northern group, just like the Eastern group that claim to be supporting Tinubu's Presidency.

Political jobbers

Northern youths or northern igbos?

I like gov Dave Umahi and indeed, I see him as the best Gov in the South east. Also, I personally rank him among the best 5 in performance.

But, even after Tinubu or Osinbajo tenure in 2031, Power goes back to the North for another 8 yrs. When next power comes to the South, certainly, that is for the South South.

In 2098, Nigeria may begin to consider our blodas for vice president.

Cc, Lalasticlala, Mynd44

the same youth that was clamouring for Youth Democratic party, Nigeria youth party come 2023 . we don't want old corrupt people, we can do it. all students should come out and vote during the last endsars protest. see them now all endorsing same men from their respective states to run for presidency come 2023.

I argued with some persons "This youth party won't work" they said youth should United for 2023, now we have divided and confused ourselves into more than 1 political party. first and second week all social media platforms was engaging with, but now no body join the group chat but have seen more "Left" than a family's group chat. it was like I was an enemy to the youths vision and mission.

Thank God I didn't waste my time & strength to join nonsense protest that I already know won't solve big issues of the country.

I hate rubbish.

If you are here and you are still hoping for youth to change this country to the good. You should stop now and put your hopes on winning ₦40m on Bet9ja. the latter will pay you.

Lol....ofe mmanus are very funny set of Idiots...Apart from Obj (Fulani stooge) who would allow ofe mmanu near the presidency when your God and personal saviour Awolowo the Google wearing Gorilla couldn't smell it...I dey laugh una in Fulfude..

He's good enough

Umahi will surely make a good president. Jokes apart

Sure he is a certified fulani ass licker now.....so he can continue their fulani agenda

Umahi should be careful before they kill him. Northern Muslims hate anything Igbo no matter how loyal you are to them.

Never trust a Muslim northerner. Thakiya is real.

Really?

You have been insulting since the return of civil administration and till date, nothing has really changed for you. Even the personal saviour of ipob miscreants has been insulting, but as it stands today, if dem born him papa well, let him step foot in Nigeria.

Now back to the topic.

Obj was president for 8 years and was deputised by a fulani man.

Osinbajo is now the vice to a fulani man and that shall be for 8 years by God's grace. Ipob miscreants can go on fasting and prayers so the aforementioned shouldn't be. But who answers the prayers of ipob lunatics? Certainly not the Living God.

Peter Obi desperately wanted to be a vice to a man who was a vice to Obj.

If this is how to be a stooge, pls I will rather remain a stooge than being a 3rd class citizen.

Fulanis kill you all above.. Nigeria is not a fulanis colony they are immigrants stop being so low. These people are not considered in other West african states where they constitutes 35 percent of the population, Guinea Conakry is a typical example..so why do other Nigerians hype them here? Is it the main reason they do all they can thinking that they've conquered the greatest country in africa? We the Great igbo race and indigenous Nigerians do not consider the fulanis.. only inferior Nigerians does and they will be eradicated with the fulanis out of Nigeria one Day by real Nigerians.
