THERE was an outrage in the ruling All Progressives Congress on Thursday over the announcement of new appointments by President Muhammadu Buhari.

Leaders of the APC, who spoke to The PUNCH, complained that the appointments tilted in favour of the North and said the party must move fast to cope with the backlash of expected rumblings in the polity.

“The President does not consult before making most of these appointments and I can tell you that Nigerians are going to term the party and the President as a northern party and the President of Northern Nigeria,” a leader of the party said to one of our correspondents late on Tuesday.

Buhari, according to a statement by his Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, on Thursday approved the appointment of Babachir David Lawal from Adamawa State as the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.

He also named Mr. Abba Kyari from Borno state as his Chief of Staff.

Other appointments approved by the President, according to the statement, are those of Col. Hameed Ibrahim Ali (retd.) as the new Comptroller-General, Nigerian Customs Service; Mr. Kure Martin Abeshi, Comptroller-General, Nigerian Immigration Service; Senator Ita Enang, Senior Special Assistant on National Assembly Matters (Senate); and Suleiman Kawu as SSA on National Assembly Matters (House of Representatives).

Both Ali and Kawu are from Kano State and Abeshi is from Nasarawa. Enang from Akwa Ibom State is the only one from the south geo-political zone.

Bubu.. this your face na dieee....
Even APC members dey complain too. No be by defecting from one party to the other.
Hope say even mini contracts go reach una hand?
That moment when babes too go migrate to new sugar daddy levels. when cows will be given out in form of cash.

If Buhari has sense and uses it, he should have known that the post of SGF should naturally go to SS or SE to balance the polity.

To non Northern APC members, this is just the preamble.

ENJOY the CHANJI while it last!!

APC witchcraft BROOM in Action!!

Behold the face of chanji
Bubu the president of arewanistan

I keep saying as long as the job gets done people with foresight do no care. You people think everybody on the streets struggling to survive cares about some tokenist appointments from their region if at the end of the day their lives are not improved? Keep dreaming. Let him appoint whoever he wants, 16 years of "federal character" and we are yet to see the real benefits of this so called democracy. Not everyone is as myopic as you people, free the man and let us give him a real chance. PDP had 16 bloody years and messed up the country, you think people will forget that so soon??

D fool above me sha
fool u dnt understand d meaning of democracy nd an amiable government

What ever happened to federal character?
Is he trying to say that there are no credible technocrats in the South East and South West?

kai! Baba one Chance!

Regardless of the set of people he appoints, once we have a functional Government and the life an average Nigerian transformed positively, constant electricity, good roads, health care among others; as long as they are Nigerians I don't mind. If however the Government will not deliver something substantial, 4years is around the corner, we vote them out again. If we don't move past this ethnicity nonsense which has been the pivot of our challenges in this country then I'm afraid.

One Nigeria is what I voted for.
