how about Gej how many northerners where in his government? bigots

Missy89:
What does he mean by " they are his subjects" Is he a king? These old farts need to learn proper vocabulary before they leave their caves

omowolewa:
It was on rumor that Buhari might appoint Amaechi or Fashola as SSG or Chief of staff, what happen to them?
They were immediately followed by heavy probe from their own.

We thought we were settling scores, not knowing we are short charging ourselves.

fastest1:
If these are the people that he believe can get things done. Religion,ethnicity and tribalism does not matter so long we are making progress as a country.

noblegrex:
seriously, that's why I'm not doubting PMB for apointing those people as part of his cabinets.I'm not being tribalistic here and of course I'm not from the North but the ones I've seen so far that are honest are actually honest,let the truth be told.there may be some honest peeps somewhere but let's c what's up.

Midehi:
NORTHERNERS ARE LESS CORRUPTIBLE

Miranda11:
How are we not sure that all the stories against Fashola and Amaechi were deliberately cooked up so that there will be a reason not to appoint them as SGF and Chief of Staff as originally projected?

Anyway time will tell if Buhari has a northern agenda when ministers are announced. If those appts are lopsided the Senate/ NASS have the powers not to approve them if Federal character is not satisfied.

Thank God Nigerians are so much more alert to these kind of things now compared to b4 and will not take this lying down. Naija is for everyone and if this country is going to succeed as one country, tribalism must take the highway.

I will still reserve my comment until I see the Ministerial appointment! One thing is sure if Mr President fails to Performs then he is in 4 a long thing

okpukpu:


The logical difference is.... a king is a ruler why a president is a leader. You know the difference now abi?

QueenEdna:
) But shes quite right. d right word would be 'Electorates' the use of proper terminology should suffice here. We are not subjects but Electorates in a democratic dispensation. Its quite different. 'Subjects' would apply in a monarchical/totalitarian Admin where power is absolute.

knostbrown01:

Sharap wolf, you knw notin and have notin .... This is democracy and words must be carefully choosen

tiwiex:

The ministerial list will be balanced. That is in the constitution. If it is not, then yawa has happened oh. The discretionary nominations are withing his power but still doesn't mean he should turn Aso Rock into a northern state. If the ministerial selection was not in the constitution, it would have been the same mess. This is a mess.

tiwiex:


It shocks me too men. I thought his military career exposed him to every Nigerian. He has obviously been biased all his life. Not cool at all.

tsdarkside:


you see...the igbos are the only ones complaining,,,you never see yoruba people complaining......because of what?? peace of mind,,,?...if buhari can give me peace of mind from this degenarate world,I AM ALREADY HAPPY WITH HIM!!!!!!!......

CyberWolf:
What's the logical difference between a king and a leader? You lots always claim ITK but has nothing to show for it

Fleshly:
The tribalism is welcomed.

At least I'm feeling vindicated, when we warned people that buhari is a jihadist they didn't listen.

Please buhari bring it on!

fairheven:


You may as well ask ,what is the difference btw night and day
To enlighten you ,a leader is entitled to his followers while a king (monarch) is entitled his "subjects" which as someone pointed is very derogatory and demeaning

CyberWolf:




See them claiming ITK as usual..With lay man's understanding using Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary as a point of reference, A ruler is someone that rules or governs, eg., someone governing a country. While while a leader is someone that leads, eg. a country, an organization, etc..Is Buhari ruling the country? Yes, Is he the leader of Nigeria? Yes, is he governing the country? Yes..

Logically, a King is called a ruler, and he calls those he is ruling his subjects.

If Buhari is ruling the country, that means he is a ruler which implies that he is a "King" hence, we are his "subjects"
Is he the leader of Nigeria? Yes, hence we are his followers... So what are we talking about?
A leader and Ruler might mean different things based on one's perspective, but logically, they are the same.

knostbrown01:

You are Buhar's Subject not me..... I belong to everybody, i belong to nobody

bigass123:
I'm sure you understand what he meant.. and so, the man has communicated his thought and left you to dissect and digest and correct his choice of diction if you want. But he has spoken his mind and left you with the analysis.
But let me ask you this... If PMB is Nigeria's number 1 citizen.. What number are you? If he is the President.. the one who preside over the governance of the nation, then who are you? His master?
If he is the Ruler of the country, the one he rules over are called what?
If the Governor's (executives) of each state in the country, ministers, Permanent secretaries and even Envoys in different parts of the world are constitutionally considered subjects to the President (Commander In Chief of the Armed Forces)... Please tell me who you are in relation to your president. You're free to hate.. But try and hate with some respect. Even your father is today brought before the president..
In a matter of minutes he will be on his knees to pay his respect.. That in no way undermines the person your father. It is only natural to give honour to whom it's due. This "open-eye" mentality is un-African and it's doing us no good.
Only the law (constitution) is greater than the president of any democracy..
Now, that I look at it.. You are the one that needs to be taught on the dynamics of power and politics sweetie.

Missy89:


Normally i dont respond to simpletons but this is just funny. Your Father might be on his knees if he meets Buhari. That is his problem.What makes you think my father will do the same? If you follow my post you will know i dont hate Buhari. So crawl back to the hole you came from.

Come back when you start thinking with your brain and not your nose

Truckpusher:
Of all he said you are more concerned about his vocabulary ? Smh.

QueenEdna:
Thats the same thing GEJ did, he appointed 80%of Naija Deltans in top key positions in Govt during his admintration, anybody in dt position would do same, so please drop the sentiments aΩ̴̩̩̩̥d̶̲̥̅̊ lets hope this ones appointed would lead Naijerians to the promised land..
