 ‎The Igbos Have Survived And Prospered Only By The Grace Of God And Our Doggedness- Chief Chekwas Okorie ‎ ‎According to a story that was published by Vanguard,  Chekwas Okorie, the Convener of Igbo Agenda Dialogue (IAD), emphasised the capacity of the Igbo people to persevere and be resolute in the face of persistent difficulties in Nigeria. ‎ ‎The Igbo people have been able to survive, develop, and prosper because to the particular grace of God, as well as their doggedness, resilience, and never-say-die spirit, according to Okorie, who issued a statement on behalf of the group. ‎ ‎In his explanation, Okorie stated that millions of Igbo people were forced to flee Nigeria due to the challenging circumstances they were facing. ‎ ‎He pointed out that the widespread migration of Igbo people has resulted in the formation of robust Igbo communities all over the world. ‎ ‎In recent years, the diaspora has emerged as a significant contributor to Nigeria's economy, as well as a sourc...

PDP HAS DECLARED THAT CITIZENS WOULD RESIST ANY ATTEMPT TO IMPOSE SEYI TINUBU,AS THE NEXT GOVERNOR OF LAGOS STATE. (PHOTO).

 


The Lagos State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party has declared that citizens would resist any attempts to impose Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Tinubu, as the next governor of the state.


This statement follows recent endorsements of Seyi as a potential successor to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu in 2027 by some groups.


One of such groups, the Coalition of Nigerian Youth Leaders, issued an endorsement on Tuesday in Owerri, Imo State, suggesting that Seyi would be welcomed to run for governor in Osun or Imo states, where his family is reportedly from.


Similarly, a socio-political group, Friends of Seyi Tinubu, also endorsed him, describing the president’s son as a visionary leader with a rare combination of intellect, empathy, and strategic acumen.


However, their endorsements have drawn criticism from various stakeholders.


In a recent interview, the Lagos PDP spokesperson, Hakeem Amode, rejected the idea, saying, “Lagos will not serve him.”


He questioned whether governorship should become an inheritance, suggesting that it was inappropriate for a son to inherit such a role from his father.


“Governorship is not a gift,” he stated, stressing that if the Tinubu camp were to resort to tactics similar to those used in Ondo and Edo states in the past, it would be met with resistance.


He further reminded that many Lagosians did not vote for Tinubu in the last presidential election which was an indication that they would not support his son for governor.


Earlier, the Coalition of Lagos Indigenous Youths also condemned the idea of a Tinubu family member taking over the governorship, insisting that non-indigenes should not be allowed to govern Lagos State.


But the spokesperson for the All Progressives Congress in Lagos, Seye Oladejo, dismissed the conversation about the 2027 elections as premature.


“It is too early to be discussing the 2027 elections,” he said, urging people to focus on supporting current government.


He said, “We should rally behind the governor and the president now to advance development.”


Earlier, a prominent APC chieftain, Joe Igbokwe, also weighed in on the issue, on his Facebook page.


“Who are these faceless people pushing Seyi Tinubu for Lagos Governor? This is a needless distraction. The real target is to bring down President Bola Tinubu. Ruling Lagos is not a job for amateurs,” he wrote.
