    Why are they still mentioning ACN? I thought that they have merged with Boko Haram’s CPC (Crime Pass Country). South West is a sell out against all other Southerners and Northern Christians by merging with Boko Buhari and Housa/Fulani/Kanuri, thereby praising and glorifying all their terrorism and occasioned insecurity. Yorubas should know that is not difficult to offend Muslims in the tribal Hausa/Fulani/Kanuri and they will always kill once they fill offended even in a matter so civil in nature and event.

      That’s why it’s tribal party. U can see the names of the people that control the T.T (Tinubu Tribal) party. After the meeting, they will pass the outcome to the political follow follow in the South South and South East who lost their way, politically.

    Let me seize this opportunity to commend the people of d Southwest, the Yorubas. They are enlightened, focused and progressive. This is y u c dividends of democracy in d region. kudos to d leaders of AC, ANpp, d well meaning APGA members like Rochas and Cpc. We will by d grace of God vote PDP out and save our country in d next election. I ve been to d south east where there is no presence of govt at all and yet sentiment does not allow their people to effect positive change. This is y in all governments The people of d SE are schemed out because of their follow follow. Even with d current so called insecurity in d north, it is more peaceful dan d SE where people are kidnapped, attacked by armed robbers, prevalence of 419, cultism etc.

    One will notice dat even peaceful demonstration the SE can not organise where they are denied their rights. In d last fuel price increase, there was demonstration in d SW and d whole north.Their sentiment did not allow them to come out. They didnt want to offend d present govt. Can u imagine!.

    The people of d SE dont usually initiate any way of addressing our national prblems. Rather they criticize. Look at all d comments above.
    In d SW we can say d political leader is Tinubu and d party is AC, in d north it is Buhari and CPC who scored over 12million votes after d PDPs rigging. Let the SE tell us their leader and their party. Even Rochas dat is out to help them they dont regard him. Look at how their leaders came out exonerating themselves frm d merger last wk.

    Ibrahim and co, the merger of the boko haram parties of the north, cpc and anpp with the acn has no progressive program at all. When did anpp which has always ruled borno state and other backward northern state become progressive?. Or is being the base of the murderous boko haram the progressive did which they want to bring to the federal stage? The merger is nothing but the usual desperation of the hausa fulani north to grab power at all cost. It is unfortunate that the greed of bola tinubu is leading the yoruba people into a disgraceful pact with northern never do wells., they are just trying yo user the yoruba as a ladder to climb but it will surely fail. Let the presidential flag bearer of the so called apc be a non northerner, you will see that the merger will crumble immediately because the presidency id the only aim of the northerners not the betterment of Nigeria. The northerners have not been able to give democratic dividends to their people they are the least developed part of Nigeria ,how then do they give it to others?. One cannot give what it does not have!

    I think the best thing the leaders of South East members of the recenty merged party, the APC in Nigeria, should urgently do is to take cue from their South West counter-parts to convene the meeting of all the stake holders in the alliance in the Zone,to delibrate and articulat e its Positions before going to participate in meetings of the Natio nal Executive meetns of APC, so that the interests’ of the South East Zone will not be compromised,short changed or treated with desdain in all matters that shall affect the interest of NDI-IGBO,such as in the distribution of National Offices,or in matters of interest, the Progressive Partie s may articulate from time to time for good Governance and/or Provision of Democrat ic dividend for the People of Niga,irrespe ctive of ones tribe or Geographical entity.
