My take on this is that Buhari can appoint only northerners if he likes, it wud still not improve the lot of the northerners cos they wud still remain the poorest region in Nigeria. We in the SE have been doin very well even without any govt help. We are innovative hustlers and we mostly succeed at whatever we do. I cnt give myself headache over qho becomes minister and all that BS. It really doesn't reduce the hardship the poor masses face, it doesn't make 1 naira equal to one dollar, it doesn't reduce the price of garri, it doesn't add a kobo to my salary, so IDGAF! |

nobeku: You are an ediot. - Dasuki was the NSA. Is he from the south? - Umar & Badeh were Chief of Air Staff. They are from the south? - Ibrahim & Badeh were Chief of Defence. They are from the south? - Jabrin & Ibrahim were Chief of Naval. They are from the south? -Rigim, Abubakar & Suleimam were made IG of police. Were they from the south? - FCT Minister Bala is from the south? - EFCC Chairman Lamorde is he from the south? - INEC boss Jega is from the south? - Was the Attorney General from the south? - What about the Minister of planning? - What about the Minister of power? You guys are EDIOTS. They lie to you fools and you come and repeat the lies like it is fact. The North has and will always enjoy sensitive positions. Their problem was they wanted TWO positions: Presidency and Petroleum. Since they didn't have either they decided to cause anarchy and sabotage. It is a shame the SE and SW are brothers who are too stupid, too ignorant and too hate filled for one another that they let these Northerns continue to rot the entire country. There is ONE thing that had been consistent throughout Nigeria's history. That is Northerns come first, rule first and everybody else last. They ruled through proxy with OBJ. He immediately installed Yar Adua. When he installed GEJ and GEJ wouldn't be a puppet for the North they destroyed GEJ and have now installed their own back to power so is giving then everything they want again. Yet you fools are still arguing amongst yourselves thinking Yoruba is the enrmy or Ibo. Shine your eyes! The enemy had never been either of you this entire time! They continue to benefit from the divide! 3 Likes 1 Share |

AZeD1: some people would argue that if this regime's appointment so far is perceived to be skewed to the north, then the previous regime's appointments must have been skewed to the south. |

nobeku:You are either ignorant or irrational. The Federal character principle is not left only to the appointment of ministers. it denotes a geographical spread of appointments in all spheres of government. And besides he should begin with the fair delegation of duties to all regions of the federation now, not later |

AZeD1: Well said. If he turns the economy around and jobs are created , basic amenities and infrastructure are provided , improved health care , security is provided and the educational sector revived ( the five basic duties of any government to its citizen ) , then how he does it shouldn't be our worry , who cares if he appoints Chadians as ministers , let him improve the welfare of Nigerians. 2 Likes |

On Buhari's Appointments So Far, My Take: I believe Mr. President is scouting for competent persons to manage the affairs of our fragile country. I also believe competent persons are not found only at one corner of the country - they are everywhere. I believe there are competent persons in the South as well as in the North, East and West. I wish Mr. President appoints his kitchen cabinet from competent persons across the country so as to feed our salivation for a sense of belonging. Nevertheless, a majority of US really do not care where his appointees hail from. We are least concerned whether they're people from Iruekpen in Ekpoma or people from Duara in Sokoto. Yes, I said so. When I said a majority of US do not mind, I am not talking about the regular APC, ANPP or PDP members. I'm not referring to the politicians also. I am talking about millions of Nigeria that told themselves "enough is enough" hence voted out Goodluck Jonathan. These persons do not care where Buhari appoints his people from, trust me. What we want is change - positive change. If we can get a loan when we need one, we don't care. If we have electricity which we pay for, we won't mind if everyone is from Kaduna. If the cost of living is reduced, why should we care where the Chief of Staff is from? If our lives get better, and the country becomes a more habitable habitat, we don't care. All we really want is progress and development. If Buhari can make all of these, or at least, most of these happen, he's our man any day, any time, any where. If all appointments have to come from one village for us to get it right, we don't care. However, there is a downside to this strategy. When the President is unable to cause this positive changes, if he is unable to do so, he will go down in history as the leader that transformed love into hate within a short while. Nigerians will hate and resist him. This is the reason I wish he does not employ this strategy. A lot is at stake. The beautiful plan could hit the rocks. Some of us have our reputation at stake too. If Mr. President fails, it will be very difficult for us to even convince a son to vote for his father. Yes, it will be that bad. Ultimately, Mr. Buhari seems to know what he is doing but like I said, I WISH he does things differently though I acknowledge the fact that it is also quite early to determine the strategy he is abducting. Buhari should not let US down. I rise! (SDE) 1 Like |

neoapocalypse:The Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria cares.That is why it made specific provisions against such boneheaded moves.Last I checked,the president swore an oath to protect and give effect to provisions of that same Constitution.

nwaanambra1:The only thing I disagree with you is your attempt to reduce the importance of GMD of NNPC. I have followed Buhari since 2003 and have supported all his attempts at returning as president too. These latest appointments are bitter pills to swallow. In fact, it has made me to hold back on an article I was to publish here today. I am disappointed too but it is not enough for me to withdraw my support for him. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Has Daura community cried out over lack of water and basic amenities? Please don't reduce this thread to a campaign thread.

Minister and whatever... but believe me, he knows NOTHING about NNPC operational dynamics in modern world...Ever being taught or met a professor of 1984 discussing modern trends especially one who hasn't developed himself recently...
