Constitutional lawyer and Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee on Corruption, Prof. Itse Sagay (SAN) on Thursday came down hard on proponents of the agitation of Biafra Republic, saying they are doing so for selfish reasons.

Speaking in a chat with Daily Independent on why the agitation for Biafra became so serious after former president Goodluck Jonathan’s tenure, Sagay said those clamouring for Biafra are doing so in order to intimidate President Muhammadu Buhari into giving the Igbos positions they don’t deserve having rigged themselves out of contention in the present istration.


Describing the Igbos as die-hard loyalists of Jonathan, he said the Igbos who occupied 50 percent of federal positions in the country under the Jonathan istration resorted to rigging for the PDP in the last general elections.

According to him, having lost out due to their lack of principle, opportunism and rigging, the Igbos decided to resurrect Biafra as a ploy to negotiate with the federal government for appointments they don’t deserve.


“I have been studying elections very closely in this country since 2007. The Igbos were committed to Goodluck Jonathan. But they didn’t leave it at that just convince people to vote for him”.

“They decided to rig for PDP and Jonathan. They did that yet, the party still lost out at the federal level. So, they lost out”.

“If you look at Jonathan’s government, the Igbos were in almost 50 percent of positions in this country. But they lost out because of their rigging and opportunism and lack of principle”.


“And now they want to take it out on Buhari by resurrecting Biafra. They want to intimidate Buhari so much. They will now want to negotiate with them and start giving them things and positions they don’t deserve. That is intimidation and threat for no just cause”

“In summary, they rigged themselves out of contention in the present istration and they are not prepared to accept the consequence of their own actions” he said.

Even Itsekiri people don dey get mouth to yab Igbos, just dey talk na your time

It something we all know, if the reasons for Biafra agitations where not selfish, Biafra would have been actualized. The Biafra of then is different from the Biafra of now. The Biafra of then had multiethnic group, but the ones of now are very tribal. They even fight with their fellow kinsmen.


Just look at the poster above...

Obviously..

But Sagay needs not to worry..Buhari is super-good at handling them. He handles them the same way they handle their businesses (in pipu's land)

What annoys me most about them is, even if you make them occupy 95% of these positions, it only tells on those given the appointments. Nothing good is ever transferred to the grassroot in the end.

We all knows that Biafra is for fraud minded people

Does Buhari deserves to be the president of Nigeria ?

A person that does not even have a secondary school cert.

Painful truth no one can deny.

Have the igbos finished helping themselves before helping others?

“In summary, they rigged themselves out of contention in the present istration and they are not prepared to accept the consequence of their own actions” he said.

Truth has never been harsher!

Fulani Terrorists are already in Urhobo land heading towards Itsekiri land.

So, keep insulting Biafrans while Fulani Herdsmen set their eyes on enslaving you guys.

Benue Refugee, have you eaten this morning.?

If no, tell me so that I can inform my people to send food to the camp you are hiding for safety in the East.

Itse Sagay is a senile goat, Buhari is a lesbian goat

We all know that. We are all in this world when they told Buhari to shift the vice presidency to their region if he wants them to vote for him. Something they accused others of.

I hope Enugu and Eboyin are Urhoboland too.

Hope Sagey won't deny making this statement.

Generalizing Igbos is very wrong..

Sagay is a character I like.
Unlike other Nigerians, he doesn't hide his disdain and loathe for Ndiigbo.
He is open and honest about it.

The world would be a better place, if men were as open as sagay.

i swear, diz sagay just enter our trap.
what we wee do to him ehn...
make we go ICC first to report him

Truth nothing but truth. They put the whole region in jeopardy for selfish reasons. Many have died and now they have abandoned Biafra agitation for 2019 election.

Satay is completely accurate

Good is already dealing with your kind that wanted to rig for Jonathan to come back

Any tribe in Nigeria that ibo can't have their way with in Nigeria, they start hating.
Look at how they hate northerners and yorubas just because these two tribes don't give a hoot about thier madness

Didn't those Fulani terrorists also visit parts of Ala Igbo such as Enugu state? Should I paste screenshots of the reports, about the events, here??

Satay is completely accurate

Can you remind the old man that MASSOB and IPOB were formed before Buhari came. Can you tell him to google Biafra Zion Movement..and who arrested their leader.

I don't know why some old people lie just to keep their position.

What contribution has this man achieved, even in this government, other than defending the govenment. He is not different from Lai Mohammed, Lauretta Onochie, Joe Igbokwe and host of other political jobbers.

Undiluted Bitter Truth...

Coming from an ugly illiterate who thinks he knows law.

Let him go to court and win at least one case against Mike ozokume


People who have appointments how have they changed their states.
