PassingShot:First, I don't recollect where I picked up fight with the OP. I understand the fun part of the thread. I also understand the constitutional provision. But sincerely, this is where I actually have issues with the wailers. Many of them have derided the north for being parasites, that they don't contribute and are just "there to fulfill the federal quota system". They have long called for the federal character "thing" to be abolished. Well on a light note, now that it has been "somewhat" done away with, they are still wailing. That's why they say be careful of what you wish for because you may just get it. I said in an post earlier today and let me repeat it here. I am a Yoruba - proud one at that. But what did we gain when OBJ/Bankole were in their respective offices? Same goes for people from David Mark and Ekwerumadu's village. Now we have the VP and two slots in HOR, are we supposed to be happy just because our sons are their? Is that our dividends? OBJ our son sunk billions into PHCN without much to show. Now PMB is less than 100 days in office and we have recorded highest electricity transmission in our history. There are many more examples that I am sure you are aware of. The point I am making is it will be nice for PMB to follow federal character but that should be a secondary requirement. The main thing is to get the job done - even if it means choosing his team from one village. Will the people of Ogoni care about having their son in power now that PMB has given the order to clean their land? A feat their son could do in six years? We are in emergency situation to correct the rot created by 16 years of pdp misrule. we need to reduce corruption, win the war against insurgency, we need good health care, education and other social amenities. This is not the time to give federal character priority. And BTW, there are still other appointments to made. 1 Like 1 Share |

[s] gists:[/s] Rubbish, if federal character is to b done away with, let it be all round. No consideration for north when it comes to jamb, common entrance, etc. Let's see how they will get admission with 2% into unity schools. And for ur assertion that other appointment will still be made, that is just a nonsense defense tactic. Every state is entitled to a minimum of one minister. We already know he will give SE ministers of state portfolio, he deserve no accolade on that. no problem about that but the appointment has been grossly lopsided from any angle u look it. Buhari is setting a precedence that will eventually scatter Nigeria as power will eventually leave north one day whether by divine Providence or any way. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Rose2014:Its not about availability of capable hands in the south. Everybody knows the answer is pretty obvious. It is about what is important to us. Appointment to kinsmen or delivering good governance. I hear many of the newly approved private refineries are from the south. Like I said elsewhere, even if each of those 65 refineries employs 100 people, that is a whopping 6500 jobs. I'll take 6500 jobs before considering if Ameachi or anybody from the south be given appointment. funkybully:Simple!! Then lobby to make the cut-off for the students from your state to be as low as that of the north! Why worry about the low cut-off from the north. People are being encouraged to go to school so they won't be readily available BH members tomorrow (and their girls married off at early age) and you are pained by that. If you are really desperate equality, then start working so the cut-off for enugu and anambra be reduced to the same level as that of yobe. funkybully:Now the highlighted part is the type of mentality that PISSES ME OFF. We are talking about cutting the cost of governance and you are still promoting 1 minister from each state. What has the number of ministerial portfolios got to do with the number of state? So if Ijebu and Anioma states are created tomorrow, we will have to create two extra ministerial portfolios as well. THAT IS JUST CRAP! And again, since you mentioned it, let me ask what the hell is the minister of state doing that the main minister cannot do? For example, will the ministry of education collapse without a minister of state for education? Is this not the wastage we are talking about. So you will be pissed off if PMB chooses to run a compact gov of 20 ministries abi since obviously the potfolios will not go round to every state. You may want to read what Festus Keyamu has to say about the legality of not following the usual 1 minister per state bu1lsh!t http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/keyamo-buhari-can-appoint-less-than-37-ministers/210359/ Finally again, I read Keyamu's perfect responce to people like you on another thread on this appointment saga: https://www.nairaland.com/2560234/keyamo-blasts-politicians-against-buharis 1 Like 1 Share |

gists:First of all, the emboldened is not true. The increased electric power transmission we enjoy now shouldn't be credited to PMB. Buhari himself knows that GEJ started it before he left. Secondly, the reason why the Yoruba tribe supported Buhari is because GEJ marginalized them during his tenure. It was simply a revenge mission and not because of PDP's 16 years of misrule. Who are the PDP/APC btw? Are they not not still the prostitutes jumping from one party to another? Abeg, leave story 2 Likes 1 Share |

Passingshit:Let's just leave GEJ out of this. All politicians are a$$holes, but GEJ happened to be the biggest of them in recent times. Sure he was running around in the twilight of his administration (re)commissioning power plants. But what does it take a "commissioned" power plant to remain in service? What we saw was a consistent decrease in output by PHCN with every (re)commissioning that GEJ did. Granted PMB has not touched the issue of electricity but you can't take away the fact that electricity supply got progressively worse before May 29 and now a lot better in 100 days after democracy day. Do I need to talk about the humuliation of the Nigerian Army in the hands of Boko Haram until it was apparent GEJ would lose election before he acted. And now we all can see the difference PMB has brought. On the point that many APC members were former PDP members, shouldn't that be the exact reason why we should place priority on who get appointments? Shouldn't that be the reason why we should place more emphasis on performance? And this hypocritical talk of federal character, why were many of the wailers when SW was "supposedly" marginalized? Why didn't they speak up at that time? Can we then conclude that if the appointments had favoured some people in south at the detriment of other regions, these same wailers would have kept quiet. On the Issue of SW and marginalization. This is what I posted elsewhere: .....the Problem most westerners had with Uncle Joe was two-folds. It was a case of double jeopardy. The main issue was performance! The marginalization just compounded it and made things worse. Most westerners wouldn't have cared much if he had performed. Most would have looked beyond the marginalization if he had delivered dividends of democracy. But most people found it very difficult to point to one aspect of their lives that GEJ improved and to make things worse, he made unnecessary enemies by offending some powerful politicians who capitalized on the marginalization issue. Just listen to Fashola during the APC interactive Town Hall Meeting in the buildup to the election: |

dayo23: Are u kidding me? Passingshot that is always singing Buhari's praise, all of a sudden has has disappointed you? How? What do u mean by 100% Like I always say: If and When I become a leader, I'll rather have people like passingshot that'll tell me the truth than surround myself with sycophants that simply sing my praise. Funny enough, If Buhari fails, those sycophants will still be the first to defect to the ruling party. The man needs to be cautioned cos intentionally or unintentionally,he's proving his critics right. And that is worrisome and needs to be corrected cos it's creating lots of tension in the country God bless Nigeria 3 Likes |
