Nigeria: Southern Governors Right On Buhari's Lopsided Appointments - Bala Mohammed


Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi state has said there is an iota of truth in what his southern counterparts said about the alleged lopsidedness in appointments by President Muhammadu Buhari.

At a meeting in Asaba, Delta State capital, on Tuesday, governors of the 17 southern states demanded a review of federal appointments to reflect federal character.

They also asked the president to address the nation over the widespread insecurity and called for national dialogue.

Speaking with journalists on Thursday, Governor Mohammed justified the position of his southern counterparts on nepotism.

"If you are not fair and equitable in your administration, in your management, if there is nepotism where only one section is given positions in government, then there will be problems."

"There is an iota of truth in what the southern governors said on some sections being highly favoured at the detriment of others.

"What we know in this country as a federalist is that there should always be a balance in terms of appointment of federal offices, even in the local governments.

"If you don't practise fairness at the top, then you cannot get it at the lower table and people will begin to think of self-actualisation, self-determination and so on and it will reflect negatively. Unless we ensure fairness and equity in the leadership of the country we cannot grow the economy."

Mohammed also dismissed the anti-corruption war of the current administration, saying some persons are treated as scared cows.

"I think the federal government has lost any idea to grow the economy. What they are best known for is the blame game. They are not even fighting the corruption they claimed to be fighting."

"There's more corruption; perceptions are built that there are sacred cows; there are the gods in this country who cannot be touched."

What happens next

Another mind game.

Guess the likes of VP Osinbajo, Femi Adeshina as defenders of the unpardonable gaffes of the Buhari government just to look politically correct are listening?

Meanwhile, governor Bala Mohammed should not think all these sudden love for southern interests will erase the fact he is a bloody bandits/terrorists sympathiser using the doctrine of taqqiya on the gullible.

Don't know whether this one is playing some "taqiya politics", but what's very obvious since the meeting of the southern governors at Asaba, is that the northern oligarchs have been much more jittery..., throwing tantrums and outbursts here and there.. Big lesson for everyone, especially the socalled southern leaders; There's strength in numbers. Speaking with one voice let's the oppressor know that it won't be easy... There's no one with a clear conscience anywhere in the world, who's going to look at what Buhari has done over the last six years and not wonder if the man is on a mission to destroy Nigeria..

I was even surprised that Buhari never bulge an inch even with the Col.Umar Dangiwa(Rtd) letter on his overt nepotism even warning him saying "All those who wish you and the country well must mince no words in warning you that Nigeria has become dangerously polarized and risk sliding into crisis on account of your administration’s lopsided appointments which continues to give undue preference to some sections of the country over others.

Mr President, I regret that there are no kind or gentle words to tell you that your skewed appointments into the offices of the federal government, favoring some and frustrating others, shall bring ruin and destruction to Nigeria.

Even our dear Ngige once defended the Lopsided Appointments by saying that's Buhari needs to be allowed "to recruit the people he knows"... Lots of them disappointed even the devil under this administration..

They are trying to appease the south now that the southern governors spoke with one voice on herders.
Is it after 6 years you got to realise the Buhari is an ethnic bigot?

lts Taqiya politics

He is the same one collecting ransom for bandits with southern resources

It's all a case of i agree with you on "some point" (just to pacify you), but however we all face the same problem, we are also victims.

Hell no, you aren't victims all Northerners are parasite milking this country, keeping their gold, using southern resources to pay Boko Haram

Boko Haram is a brain child of the north, attack on it is attack on north, but spending on it is for the south.

They have the knife, they have cornered the yam

Yet they tell you they are victims, why don't you give up your loopsided positions, benefits, and spoon feeding and let's address things squarely

Ok

Not just an aiota of truth but an all round truth talk of buhari govt of nepotism.

I have a feeling that after all the atrocities committed in the name of the fuulani under this administration, handing over power to other groups in 2023 will be too hard to swallow for the far north.. The fear of payback..

They are stupid

The wicked runneth when no man pusheth

I don't see the south as a region that has time for revenge

If it's a sensible Northerner why not give him power, we are so divided that even now we just need a unifier, (youth, technocrat is even luxury with the damage inflicted).

I am not taking brief for Atiku, but he is the only matured mind that the south can feel safe with

Since the north is scared of its shadow he too knows their how to tame them
