Why Igbos should not agitate to become Nigeria’s President – Junaid

-Dr. Junaid Mohammed blames Igbos for the 1967 civil war in Nigeria.

-He also sees Biafra agitations as a means of ensuring the presidential position is given to the Igbo people of the country.

Dr Junaid Mohammed,  a front line northern politician and second republic lawmaker, has alleged that the Igbos clamouring to become Nigeria’s President are also the very reason they may not be able to actualize their dreams.

The former legislator also claims the Igbos are only using the agitation for Biafra to blackmail the North into ceding the 2019 presidency to them.

Mohammed was of the opinion that since democracy is a game of numbers, their dreams of becoming Nigeria’s President can only be actualized if they follow the right means.

Mohammed, while speaking with the sun, maintained the Civil war in Nigeria that claimed the lives of over one million people was caused by the Igbos.

He said, “The Igbo are clamouring for an additional state, one of the reasons they are now talking about Biafra, even though the real reason is that they want to blackmail the North, to concede presidency to them.

“By this means, they will never get any hope for presidency because democracy is a game of numbers. You cannot tell people to vote for you because you are being irresponsible.

“You caused the civil war that claimed over one million people, you will now come back and demand as a right that you must have a president. Is it democracy they are talking about or secession?”
