OAM4J:Competence is just one part of the criteria and if we were to give it a score, I'd say competence takes 20% - 30% percent. There's things like trust, ability to work together et al. Buhari was born and bred in the north, you should know and expect that his most trusted allies would be northerners. |
Re: Were People Right About Buhari? by Nobody: 10:57pm On Aug 27, 2015 |
OAM4J:Sir, nigeria isn't multicultural than the US but we have structured our minds to focus on the wrong/irrelevant things expecially in this decade. Two of the 3 biggest appointments are southerners (firs and NNPC) this suggest to me that the president is more interested in competent people rather than balancing ethnicity. Every elected president forms his government majorly with from his inner caucus, if there are more northerners in the trust pool of the President, we should let him work with people he knows can get the job done. President Jonathan is licking his wounds today for surrounding himself with all manner of people. 3 Likes |

Election in Nigeria is REGION against REGION and RELIGION against RELIGION and it will continue that way. Igbos are at the receiving side because of their small population and feud between Igbos and yorubas. Igbos can compete when they have the supports of the co-southerners. |

Obiagelli:Go read Third Schedule,Part 1C 8(1),(2) &(3).You don't expect me to spoonfeed you by literally quoting all the wordings here,do you?. Those sections covers all aspects of public service including the military,judiciary,ministerial and extra-ministerial departments,public corporations and enterprises. The Long and short of it is that going by his appointments thus far,the president has run afoul of the Constitution grievously. Modified: Subsection 3 even invalidate any provision of any establishment law that runs counter to federal character,taking it down to the level of directors and management of any public body. Read Section 14(3) CFRN,to start with Thank me later for the tutorial 2 Likes |

AZeD1: Agreed, but bro, Buhari is not just the president of his 'born and bread' North or the people he is is used to. He is the president of all Nigerian ethnic groups. Every part of Nigeria has a right to feel belonged in his Government. We need to build trust and harmony among all ethnics group until we get to a point we see ourselves as one like it obtained in US today. You should not be President of Nigeria if you cannot build bridges across ethnics group. I dont want Buhari to be seen as Northern president, I want him to be seen as a Nigerian president. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Obiagelli:I did not go tribal. Onu was the only credible southerner in the running for the SGF which was why i used him. I could do the same for other appointments with more credible yoruba and SS candidates that should have been chosen. My question still stands. In which rational planet is a lawal better than ogbonnaya onu? Is it in experience, credibilty, discipline, exposure,intelligence, progressiveness? Pls tell me. 5 Likes |

Obiagelli: It took a while for USA to get to where they are today, and they consciously worked to get there. Nigeria will get there with time, reason why GMB should not follow the path of Jonathan of flogging the sentiment of ethnic divide. Fact is there are competent people from all ethnic groups and GMB should maintain a pool that include all. I do not subscribe to his 95% to 5% ratio, after the election he is the president of all, including those who didn't vote for him... all have a right to feel belonged in his government. |

Afam4eva: I may not be interested in ALL you said here which to me isn't correct but so far it is your personal opinion, it doesn't matter much to me because you're entitled to one...but to say that South-East love to hate is an insult both to me and to everybody from that part of the country... What and how do you justify such insensitive and myopic statement? What is it that fed your conviction about that? Isn't it an indication that you have a poisoned and primordial sentiments guiding your disposition and interaction with people from there? Aren't you by that statement showing you carry a burden of hatred against them?... Such mindset shows how unbiased & informed your other submissions in this write up are...smh 7 Likes 4 Shares |

Re: Were People Right About Buhari? by CORRECTMAN78(m): 11:19pm On Aug 27, 2015 |
The bottom line remains that the entire south is corrupt and incompetent. That's the notion of Buhari and his "Sai baba" group. Then for those of you who believe appointments should have nothing to do with quota system; why did a party as big as APC almost drawn to precipice cause a sw regislature, Gbajabiamila did not emerg the speaker as planed? Why do we stil in army, navy, airforce, nis, etc have equal number of candidates from each state? Let me send shock down your spine, I saw the last election result, I saw the actualisation of Biafran sovereignty. This is because Buhari will overstretch Nigeria unity such that every ethnic group in Nigeria will rise up and begin to clamour for sovereignty. Note my word! |

Re: Were People Right About Buhari? by wiegraf: 11:21pm On Aug 27, 2015 |
CSTR2: Hear hear. I think it would be wasteful to toss away such potential prematurely. If he still gives no indication of wanting to work with others by the next elections, and the northern populace supports him with our votes, then there is obviously a critical problem with the union IMO. I think at that point any potential gains would cost too much. They would be outweighed by the negatives of having a non-inclusive union. That said, do note I think it's good that you raise awareness to these issues whenever you can so they (hopefully) can be addressed. I just stress caution of a kind |
