Under 1 week, GEJ has sacked and replaced with northerners 2 positions the 'North born to rule cabal' has always claimed as theirs i.e.the NSA and NNPC's GMD.
Newspaper rumors also have let us in to the resistance especially by the SW and SS to have the Minister of Defense come from the core north which GEJ is said to be leaning towards.
Knowing the primitive kind of politics we play in Naija where merit & competence is sacrificed on the altar of tribe& appeasement, could it be said that Ebele is trying to use this to quell the BH insurrection up north& assuage the born to rule cabal.
Please let us not start another ethnic battle as we respond.
Your intelligent thoughts on this please.

Remember that Azazi is the 1st&only southerner to be NSA.
Even if he was sacked for BH become deadlier,why replace him with a core blue blood northerner?
In today's polarized Nigeria,who would Ebele trust more regarding security,his kinsman or an 'outsider' from the region most opposed to him?
Your thots please.

The question is not who should GEJ trust more? But how will GEJ garner more trust from a wider composition of the populace?
The Polarization needs to be arrested, because the road to disintegration may become a very long, torturous and bloody one if the drift is allowed to continue. Believe me that is not in the interest of anyone.

If that is what it takes to 'appease' the north what is wrong in that?
If this is what it takes to tame Boko Haram then so be it.

BTW why mention 'born to rule cabal' if you dont want 'another ethnic battle'?
You are a bigot!

What 'thots' do you want from us? For or against your obviously bigoted 'thots'?

Mr. Andrew Yakubu is from Kaduna.
What's the big deal if he has got the credentials? Is Kaduna not from Nigeria again?

The poster is just another fisherman.

Beaf!:

I'm no bigot
The average Hausa/Fulani man lusts for power and rulership [note not leadership]
Maybe this has its roots in Dan Fodio's jihad ideology
Even intelligent six year olds understand Nigeria is in the grip of a corrupt but stupendously elite minority,majority of whom are Hausa/Fulani
GEJ,Atiku,OBJ,IBB are just public faces of different clans within that elite
GEJ violated the honor among thieves agreement(rotation)&thus BH escalation
Doesn't it beggar belief that Azazi was the 1st non northern NSA?
Or that NNPC has had more Northern leadership than even the SS where the oil flows from?
So much for 1 Nigeria
I hold no brief for GEJ seeing whatever concessions this appointments may seem to be are made to the other clans of this elite up in arms against his own clan [which we see in form of BH] while Nigerians get slaughtered and shout themselves hoarse daily

hey, what's with the name calling
Stop speaking like a dunce
Even infants know that merit plays less of an influence in appointments in Nigeria
The Nigeria run on merit is not yet here nor can GEJ give us that kind of Nigeria
Andrew Yakubu merits the position, no doubt for he's been at NNPC for 32 years
Yet I bet you, him been a northerner played a big part too in his appointment
