  • South East APC mega rally for president shakes Owerri

George Onyejiuwa and Stanley Uzoaru

Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Mr. Boss Mustapha, has said the only way the South East can realise its age-long desire of occupying the presidency is for people of the zone to massively vote for President Muhammadu Buhari in 2019.

He said the South East people should not repeat the mistake of 2015 presidential election in which they voted for the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), adding that majority of those who have been parading as presidential aspirants cannot win their constituencies in 2019.

The SGF, who represented President Buhari at the APC South East mega rally for Buhari, held in Owerri, the Imo State capital, yesterday, said the support of the people of the region for President Buhari will be the determining factor if the zone will occupy the presidency in 2023.

“2019 will make or mar the chances of the South East zone in occupying the presidency in 2023. I call on South East sons and daughters to have a paradigm shift in 2019 and support Buhari’s re-election.

“The presidency of this nation is always negotiated and you cannot negotiate from the point of weakness. It will be determined by the votes Buhari gets from the South East, and you have to bring the same expertise you have always employed in trade and commerce into politics, to take over in 2023. It is now the choice for the South East to make,” he said.

Mustapha equally noted that President Buhari appointed five ministers from the South East, four of whom are cabinet ministers and a minister of state even when he got the least votes from the area.

“President Buhari does not hate the Igbo and he has included the zone in all the infrastructure projects and gave the zone five ministers, four of who are cabinet ministers and a minister of state. I am assuring you people that the president will do more for the zone in his second term.”

Earlier in his speech, National Chairman of the APC, Adams Oshiomhole, said with such crowd, the mistake made by the people of the zone will now be corrected if they replicate the turnout in favour of President Buhari in the 2019 presidential election.

Oshiomhole, who admitted he had doubted the possibility of pulling such a crowd in his first rally as the national chairman of the party, gave kudos to the host, Governor Rochas Okorocha, who he said only hinted him of the rally four days ago.

“I have respect for people with courage, not those who are leaving a party because others are leaving. I must confess when Rochas told me of the rally four days ago, I didn’t believe it would be such a gathering; I am happy to see the crowd, those outside are twice more than those inside, I would have punished him if he had not forced me to come,” Oshiomhole said.

On his part, Okorocha admitted that South East played a bad politics in 2015, but noted that 2019 will be a time to correct the mistake.

He said: “South East love Buhari; we will ensure his victory in 2019. With our new leader, who has delivered as a governor and a union leader, we know he will deliver; we have come to change the story of 2015, we are celebrating excellence, patriotic style of leadership of Buhari.

“In 2015, we played bad politics, but, Igbo have now declare for Buhari; this first leg of the South East rally is to correct the impression that there is no APC in South East. Igbo are not good starters, but they are good finishers.”

Earlier, one of the governorship aspirant of the party in the state, Ugwumba Uche Nwosu, appealed to the leadership of the party on the kind of politics played by the zone but assured that the South East is willing to give a hundred percent of their votes in 2019.

    The worst illiteracy on earth is if a people do not know their existence and what it takes. Fulani criminals do not know their existence and what it takes which made them the most illiterate people on earth. That’s why exist Almajiri practice, underage marriage practice etc. under the dead fulani fraudulent criminal sultanate political government with its emirates under the dead fraudulent political name Nigeria. Fulani criminals who do not have existence in this natives territory of Disintegrated Republics, are telling Igbos of south east of Biafra Republic what Igbos existence is- the worst insanity of illiteracy. Igbos fought British bandits in bloody engagement till 1922, fought British bandits in diplomatic engagement till 1960 British bandits were defeated and driven away. Igbos of south east of Biafra Republic for for Liberation in bloody engagement 1967-1970 successfully established the Liberation Foundation which Igbos of south east of Biafra Republic stood to date the fulfillment has come in this final conquest of the Liberation Revolutionary Warfare of the natives under the natives Disintegrated Republics- Biafra Republic of south east, Niger Delta Republic of south south, Oduduwa Republic of south west, North East Republic, North West Republic, North Central Republic, and the an irrelevant comic figure, fraudulent criminal tout of fulani fraudulent criminal sultanate political government with its emirates under the dead fraudulent political name Nigeria is quoted for an Igbo to be a president of a dead fraudulent political name Nigeria controlled by fulani fraudulent criminal sultanate political government with its emirates with their brainwashed terrorism mercenaries nickname military, police etc. controlled by British bandits and fraudulent criminal America with their fraudulent criminal UN of 20th century world international order- the worst insanity of illiteracy. Fulani criminals who are not natives in this natives territory, do not have native land in this natives territory, do not have stake in this natives territory, are the ones who must beg for asylum in the natives Disintegrated Republics- Biafra Republic of south east, Niger Delta Republic of south south, Oduduwa Republic of south west, North East Republic, North West Republic, North Central Republic. Disintegrated Republics of the natives which must be defended with the Sword in this final conquest of the Liberation Revolutionary Warfare of the natives which ends in Sokoto- the sit of the satan of this natives territory. God given Victory is the natives. Only the Sword decides. God Is With Us!!!

    The era fulani fraudulent criminal sultanate political government with its emirates under the dead fraudulent political name Nigeria decides political existence of this territory natives is over and gone forever. Fulani criminals claimed a war victory over northern natives in 1804- which never happen, on which they established fulani fraudulent criminal sultanate political government with its emirates, with which they subjected northern natives under fulani Political Control and got Democratic Capacity with the 19 northern states in their hands which is the majority votes, with which they decides political existence of this natives territory, political existence of this territory natives- a daylight fraud which has come to an end in this final conquest of the Liberation Revolutionary Warfare of the natives under the natives Disintegrated Republics which ends in Sokoto- the sit of the satan of this natives territory. It is Revolutionary Militant Groups- RMG etc. formation which its members are the new military, police etc. under the natives Disintegrated Republics. The war front is Sokoto- the last bastion of fulani fraudulent criminal sultanate political government with its emirates under the dead fraudulent political name Nigeria with their brainwashed terrorism mercenaries nickname military, police etc. controlled by British bandits and fraudulent criminal America with their fraudulent criminal UN of 20th century world international order. Slaughter the last enemy in Sokoto. Slaughter the last enemy’s brainwashed terrorism mercenaries nickname military, police etc. in Sokoto. Slaughter the criminal tout nickname sultan in Sokoto, burn down his palace etc. God has put the enemy in the hands of this territory natives of this generation to crush. God given Victory is the natives. Only the Sword decides. God Is With Us!!!

    The illiterate tout nickname Boss should know the fact that those desire a president of the dead fraudulent political name Nigeria controlled by the dead fulani fraudulent criminal sultanate political government with its emirates, are the generation of failures which succumbed and accepted fulani Political Control via fulani fraudulent criminal sultanate political government with its emirates- Ohanaeze group, Nwodo, Anyaoku, Nwabueze, Ekweremadu, Orji Uzoh Kalu, Umahi, Okorocha etc. Generation of failures which do not have a place in Igbo land of Biafra Republic of south east, do not represent 0.1 per cent of Igbos of south east of Biafra Republic. Igbos of south east of Biafra Republic stood firmly on their democratic decision of Biafra Republic of south east in Disintegrated Republics of the natives under Southern Countries Union- SCU in this 21st century world international order which must be defended with the Sword in this final conquest of the Liberation Revolutionary Warfare of the natives which ends in Sokoto- the sit of the satan of this natives territory. God given Victory is the natives. Only the Sword decides. God Is With Us!!!

    Only the Sword decides- if the said 2019 will come, if the dead fulani fraudulent criminal sultanate political government with its emirates will exist in this natives territory in 2019, if the dead fraudulent political name Nigeria will exist in this natives territory in 2019, if the enemy’s brainwashed terrorism mercenaries nickname military, police etc. will exist in this natives territory in 2019. There’s no democracy in this natives territory under the dead fraudulent political name Nigeria controlled by fulani fraudulent criminal sultanate political government with its emirates with their brainwashed terrorism mercenaries nickname military, police etc. controlled by British bandits and fraudulent criminal America with their fraudulent criminal UN of 20th century world international order. Democracy exist only under the natives Disintegrated Republics which must be defended with the Sword in this final conquest of the Liberation Revolutionary Warfare of the natives which ends in Sokoto- the sit of the satan of this natives territory. God given Victory is the natives. Only the Sword decides. God Is With Us!!!

    Let Mutapha go back and tell Buhari to come to Igboland and say this with his own mouth. Let Buhari come to the East and tell them what he promised them in 2015, and what he dwlivered. This campaign is supposed to be for Buhari, so why did Buhari not show up? Is Buhari who decides who will succeed him? Was it Jonathan that decided on his successor? If so, then where is the role of the electorate? Let Buhari and co perish the idea of using blackmail and intimidation on the South East, as the people are wise enough to think properly and know what is good for them, able to do proper performance appraisal on any known rulers and leaders. They do not need any preacher to tell them what is in stock for them if Buhari should continues with or without Igbo votes. They should ask Benue,and Plateau people who voted for Buhari if in doubt.
