we're in a democratic rule and he was elected the president of nigeria and not of those that voted for him.
true, that is in theory. In practical comrades who joined you in the struggle eat the fattest meat, the others are compensated. How many people dat didn't work for your Governor has he appointed?

Are you trying to tell me now that nobody from the east voted for him?

Congrats.

He looks calm from his pix.

We are still awaiting appointments from the east, all we have been seeing is North and West or there is no credible person in the East!
Stop being mischievous man! why does the east wanna reap where it did not sow?! Afterall the "Director" calls Nigeria the 'Zoo' that must fall.

Japhet Omojuwa has lost out again, Daura President appointing my yoruba folks into *talk talk* position while the Northerners are getting juicy appointments.

Change Indeed

Shameless tribalist and bigot.

people from the east voted for him, people of the east would get positions from him. But the truth his people from the east won't get many juicy positions from him. And the positions would be controlled by people like Okorocha, Onu, Iginge and the few APC members in the other states. That is politics. My state was sidelined by GEJ because it was an APC state even if it was in the same zone He came from and edo voted massively for him in 2011.

Finally Tolu has made it from his cartoons.

I still wonder why Ford motors were his biggest sponsors.

Congratulations to him though

Great. Tolu is a great guy. I have had cause to interact with him. He's probably the most brilliant under-35 columnist in Nigeria, in my opinion.

Confession: I lobbied for this position. I talked to Femi Adesina, a senior friend on a first name level, that I won't mind handling their Social Media for them when I realised Garba Shehu and Femi were not so social media savvy. I still have records of our conversation.

I have a feeling a feeling my name was among the suggested names for this position, but Tolu will beat anybody. Tolu is a great guy that has the mien , temperament and knowledge to handle the job better. His level-headedness is another bonus. Tolu doesnt come across as someone that will play a Wendel Simlin. He has a name to protect as a CNN award winning journalist.

I wish him all the best. He is the best man for the job.
Sorry to counter you but my guys say there is no office of new media anymore as it has been scrapped. This news originated from BreakingTimes.

that is in contrast with his change slogan. You can't be shouting change and wants to do like the ones before you. The change he's chanting will be a scam if he can't put the past behind him

If Barcanista had stayed with the APC, maybe, just maybe he will have gotten the position of SA New Media.

Don't worry 2019 is just around the corner, Barcanista, your time will surely come.
Bros, I never lobbied for position at anyt time. I'm still in my forming stage and when the time comes you will know.

baba barcanista!

I know you are open to criticism, don't get me wrong, I appreciate your analysis a lot!




Am not necessarily talking about getting a political appointment or job But devoid yourself of sentiments, then relevance will seek you!
bros, Thanks for the advice. I don't think it is fair to say that I'm sentimental

Chai!! The only post befitting of our Yoruba brothers is media spokesperson. This is an insult to the entire Yoruba tribe who were the brain behind the re-branding of a tyrant General Buhari.

I weep for Tinubu.
Weep for yourself !

Nice one, I remember working with him in Visafone Comm then. Bad news for the anti buhari e-warriors- (barcanis.. and co)

Barcanista would have gotten this role, if on the other side. Bro don't be deterred.

life's more than what you studied in school
 try following what you are passionate about
 and stay on it... this is what usually happens

Congrats to Tolu, the Pharmacist turned writer.
Uncle I never lobied ooooooo

Bros I understand your point, politics is not an emotional game. He can only work with people that believed in the change before he was elected. When Gej preached transformation, why did he sideline APC state? Doesn't change and transformation mean the same thing?

If you are a media political enthusiast and you don't know tolu ogunlesi then you are not complete. Barcanista really needs to learn one or 2 things from these, I have a word for online political analyst. 'always seek relevance to stay relevant'.
The protection seeker is not a serious boy nah. He believes in the crumbs he can get "now now" than building a serious brand for himself.

Btw, he is pushing for Biafra already. Maybe when that becomes successful, he will be made an SA to Nnamdi Kanu. grin cheesy

You are mad. Raving mad!!! So, one of the new service chiefs, Chief of Defence Staff from Ekiti state that Buhari had just appointed is not Yoruba?

You TANoids, SaTANists, and Jonathanian dumb-ass fools are so pathetic!
