Nigeria is funny, why will Abubakar Ali suceed Mamman Ali as governor of Yobe state.

Its nothing new but we still need to ask whther we dont have better qualified people in yobe state.

How do you know that Abubakar Ali is not qualified?
Why cant you be patient with him?
He barely assumed office

Yobe state is actually a family business run by the Alis'.

Why should people complain if the younger brother takes over after the death of the CEO.

In Nigeria,Govt business is a personal and family business.

I don't have time for them jo;after all,it's only once in a while we get to hear that there exists such a state in Naija.

We are govern by some few people who operates a simple principle,
"as the spirit leads".
Note that the Paper they are parading as constitution is nothing but one of the pages of my personal notebook.
If not exagerrating, a leaf of my notebook carries more value than that trash called constitution.
Iwu will never understand what the law says in situation like this. But will know how to stop pdp opposition from
contesting election.
The worst are the beggars in state and national assemblies who parades themself as Honourable without any bit of Honour.
SHAME ON THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE WHERE THEIR STATE CEO DIED AND HIS BROS TOOK OVER.

COMPESATION OF THE HIGHEST ORDER.

Limuel

I did not say he is not qualified,

I am just saying don't we have other people who might be more qualified,

Gbemisola Saraki might be the next governor of Kwara cos she is also qualified , abi

what about the deputy governor of that god forsaken state. why wasnt he sworn-in as the constitution says? this is why i will always say that nigerian politics stinks to high heaven.

sorry

The brother is the new deputy governor,

The deputy governor is the governor

govt of the few,for the few,by the few,
we are doomed

the end is nigh.

I was shocked by this . I thought the constitution says the deputy Governor takes over. Nigeria is a failed state

God safe us all,

pls he is the deputy governor not the state governor.get your facts correct

Even the opposition didnt complain, what a country as long as yobe people didnt complain sha!

_{where is yobe again?}

He was the new Deputy because he deserves to be.We have to consider the fact that,when he was nominated be the newly Governor,the state house of assembly have voted and won 99% of the votes.Constitutionally,there is a law for the governor to nominate any candidate of his choice as far as that person satisfy all the criteria of such law.We also have to consider his experience in the civil service as permanent secretary,i believe he is capable enough to stand on the challenges waiting for him in his new office.Politics in the Northern part of Nigeria is unlike that of the South and the east as well.As far as such act does not violate the constitution of the federal republic of nigeria,the people accepts it with good faith,i think such cases should be emulated in the entire country.I will suggest that the reader should find about the achievements of the late governor,that of his brother(new deputy),and then think about weighing the reasons of him being selected as the New deputy governor.
