The North has more qualified personnel, you see, it's all about merit. Why must you "regionalize" every issue? You must be a wailing wailer!

Sai Baba! *grins*

^^^Don't hold your breath!

I suspect the modus-operandi for filling these appointments is to first look at a list containing the Hausa/Fulani and northern muslims in the organization concerned before looking at any other criteria!

pazienza:

If I could remember, this man appointed one SW man yesterday
But this daily appointment don tire me
why not do all the appointment once

It's obvious that Buhari has no grasp of Inclusive governance. Not at all. 97% of those who voted are now Muslim hausafulanis.
Every christian in the country is now 5% like me.
96% appointment so far are pure muslims of hausafulanikanuri stocks where they contribute Zero to national coffers and consume 80% of the allocation.

All igbos in positions are systematically replaced with muslim fulanihausas. I mean all. WAR is cooking!

Would any of you shouting "another northerner" have expected that a man who has been acting as DG be replaced by another person without any major sin?

During GEJ's time appointments were clearly skewed to farvour a section of the country without much noise. So, let "Baba Go Slow" do as he deems right to bring about the change.
