Presidency shortlists 4 to replace NCC bossOluwaseun Ayantokun, Lagos Wednesday, October 28, 2009 THE race towards getting a replacement for the current Executive Vice Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), of the Nigeria Communication Commission (NCC), Mr. Ernest Ndukwe, has commenced, just as the information filtering from the presidency indicated that four persons had already been shortlisted.
Though, the list was yet to be officially announced, the Nigerian Tribune gathered that Ndukwe’s replacement may be produced from any of the three geopolitical zones in the North.Among them is a professor that is knowledgeable about the communication industry from the North East. Also, on the list that excluded names that were being thrown up in the country’s telecommunication sector was one of the sound minds currently serving as an executive director in the commission. Meanwhile, stakeholders in the telecommunication sector have appealed to President Umaru Yar’Adua and others in the decision making with regard to the appointment of the successor of Mr. Ndukwe, to avoid politicising the matter. Speaking to the Nigerian Tribune in his office, a player in the industry, who would not want his name mentioned, described the new appointment exercise as a litmus test for President Yar’Adua. He said if political considerations prevailed in making the new appointment, the current development in the sector of the country’s economy may be derailed. http://odili.net/news/source/2009/oct/28/606.html

Is Sanusi performing? Maybe, you should define your meaning of performance. |

@toba: You think Sanusi is performing right, for your information Sanusi's performance is just like a man digging a well. Only time will tell.
Back to the Issue I think Yardua is Trying to help his kingsmen but non the less, The right person for the job is most welcomed, but this tribalism thing, will always prevent these country from getting there,

By all means, put a northerner there. It's only fair.
The position in the last 12 years has actually been occupied by two southerners, from the South East. Iromantu and Ndukwe.
No doubt Ernest needs to go. He has done well, but has run out of ideas since. Let's see what a new face will bring.

lets say the four shortlisted were deputy or executive directors under Ernest Ndu, is there really anything wrong if one of them replaces him?
NCC boss to be replaced from the north? funny title
you mean the announcement will be made in the northern part of the country?

Well this is Nigeria, when you see a Ibo man in a place of authority, all he does is to appoint his people, likewise other tribes in Nigeria.
Its a pity this is how we do things in this country without considering competence and other factors surrounding it.
Yaradua needs better advisers
Good people great Nation Bad leaders
God bless Nigeria.

nywhere Mr Presido decides to choose from just put a round peg in a round hole.

I don't see anything bad either, if it is done through the process you laid down.

Thank you I wonder why replacing a southerner with a northerner causes so much noise while replacing a northerner goes almost unnoticed. Pres Yar'adua should just give us capable hand. That position is not for politicians. |

How many northerners have been replaced with southerners?. Why didn't Yaradua replace abdullahi who has a fraudulent certificate with a Yoruba, Bini, igbo or ijaw man? |

This is obviously a fallout of Dora 2.3Ghz frequency fight with Ndukwe,either she pressed for his removal or those northerners just saw a divided house of a brother and sister and decided to strike

You'd rather she doesn't do her job because her kinsman is at the helm of affairs there?. Is that how Nigeria will grow? |

Thank you, Follow me ask them. Why can't people open their eyes. Federal character means the idea of the best person for the job died a long time ago. Share the jobs out equally amongst the geopolitical zones. |

There is no problem in any of the coming replacement whether from north or south. Only thing we should be worried about is how to make our Nigeria great.
