So where would the #70 differential between this #160 exchange rate and the real rate of about #230 come from, mbuk??

Abi did the Saudis say they will pay for it?

PassingShot:

Federal universities were not meant to be in every state of the federation. You mean Jonathan built the only federal road in Katsina? Has Daura community cried out over lack of water and basic amenities? Please don't reduce this thread to a campaign thread.

Do you think you can really provide any justification for Otuoke not having drinkable water and other basic amenities despite sixteen years of GEJ in governance?

PassingShot:

Call it subsidy if you like, mbuk (whatever the word means, na you know).

And it's only on BTA for the pilgrims.

Obiagelli:

I would worry if projects seem to favour a region rather than appointments. You are appointed to work not chop

azimibraun:
No matter how you see it, the North will have more appointees because of the number of states and it's population. Besides the large majority of those of you complaining do so in ignorance. Appointees from Niger, Benue, Kogi, Nasarawa, plateau are all being seen by those in the SS, SE(especially) and SW as the same as those from Kaduna, Zamfara, Sokoto, Borno, Kebbi, Adamawa, Bauchi and Kano. So is the case of Kwara been mistaken for a SW (pure yoruba state) the NNPC GMD was disowned by igbos becouse they think he is Delta igbo.. Does a Man in Kano know if there is somebody called an Anioma Man? Appointees will come enough for every region. Patience people Patience. You guys have always been wrong about Buhari, you will once again on his appointments.

NIGERIANS WANTED ''CHANGE'' AND NOW WE HAVE GOT IT. NO-ONE SHOULD COMPLAIN BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT OUR PEOPLE WANTED. THOSE OF US THAT WARNED THE COUNTRY THAT THIS WOULD HAPPEN WERE INSULTED AND LAMPOONED. NOW WE HAVE TO LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENCES OF OUR CHOICE FOR THE NEXT FOUR YEARS. WELCOME TO THE NEW NIGERIA. WELCOME TO ''CHANGE''.

They're not that stu:pid..the problem is that they don't know how to accept their mistake, they'll hang on to anything that gives them hope. It is called the Ameachi Syndrome...they know they're screwed but just don't want to accept it..YET!

herringbone:
you must be a blockhead to even think that a man without a power roadmap or any policy in place have changed the power situation in your area, and your lots will be quick to blame the past dispensation for ill equipping the army. Mad followers.

joseph1832:
Like you can actually taste/eat sh!t. Your analogy doesn't apply in this case.

AZeD1:


Actually some people (including me) say we don't care because we actually don't care. Successive governments have used Federal character in their appointments and where has that gotten us to?
The only people who would care about where Buhari's appointees come from are politicians and illiterates.

We gave Buhari a 4 year mandate, how he goes about it should not be our problem as long as it is within the confines of the constitution.

NwabuezeWini:




I seriously pity u. Just be consoling urself.

kenny987:


And that is why it is called an analogy. You aren't supposed to take it literally. How come that's the only part of what I said u picked on? Acknowledge truth my dear, trying to pick faults where there's none won't help you.

kenny987:


It is from what is that u can tell what isn't that may likely be and then make plans accordingly. U no go wait make rain meet u before u go arrange umbrella and raincoat na. A man who fails to plan, plans to fail. After all it is said that it is from the smell of the fart that u will determine the nature/taste of the shiit.

PassingShot:
@OP, a mistake in your thread: PMB may not have appointed someone from the SE but Dr. Ibe Kachukwu, the GMD of NNPC is Igbo.

I am extremely disappointed and at the same time appreciates the character of the president. The personality that he sticks to his gun as far as he believes in what he's doing. Though this type of attribute, as it's strength, can also become weakness.





Having said that, these latest appointments cannot be justified on the ground of absence of competent and upright characters in the SS/SE/SW.

islandprincess:
keep consoling urself

chuna1985:







Ur post is rigged with stupidity...

Dhugal:

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.
When are you guys going to get your heads out of the sand?

atlwireles:
As long as people don't feel marginalised like they felt under GEJ, I'm happy.

CHESSBOARD:


Yoruba ppl are imbecilic slaves to Hausas, They will nerver ever fell marginalized, trust me

I often find this sentiment profoundly silly not because I have much regard for PDP but because of what it reveals about Nigerians' lack of perspective. PDP came into power in 1999, the Nigeria of pre-1999 was an odious calamity. You often find people who either don't remember the Nigeria of those days or were kids/young at the time and had no real knowledge of the actual state of affairs then, basing their analysis on the notion that PDP is the root cause of our problem. They do so because PDP is all they have known in their adult life.

Nigeria was messed up before PDP was formed, therefore, what is wrong with Nigeria transcends PDP. This is a 55 year old country which has been dysfunctional from the beginning. You can keep deluding yourself that regurgitating political characters from the past, so long as they are not PDP, is the path to a new beginning but that is the height of self-deception. I predict that we will be dissapointed just as we have been for 55 years. In 8 years time, people who are infants or teens today will proclaim that our problem is mainly attributable to APC. We will never learn.

hinwazaka:

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

fallout87:


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!

OAM4J:


Many here know that I have been a strong supporter of Buhari since 2011, and I still believe he is by far better than Jonathan. But truth be told, his appointments get k-leg and the OP has a point.

We can not pretend that balancing appointments in a country that is highly volatile on ethnic sentiments like Nigeria is nothing. We are not USA or UK. Except GMB thinks no competent people can be found from other region which you and I know cannot be true.

I know competence should come before ethnicity but we can get competent people everywhere if we search diligently, so what stops GMB from getting only competent people while at the same time balancing his appointment.

I still keep faith with him, but truth be told he is playing the script of those who labelled him an ethnic bigot and I wish he chooses to be wiser and more sensitive. We know what followed the man that said he doesn't give a damm... I hope GMB gives a damm about these things..
