friends and colleagues from every part of the nation and some of my best friends are not even from my side of the country. However, recent events are making me to have a deeper reflection and I wish we- Southerners in this instance- can have some kind of introspection. Out of 25 appointments made so far, 18 are from the North, 3 are from the South West, 4 are from the South South while the South East has ZERO appointments. A tweet which I saw today stated that “southerners are only competent when it’s time for elections but northerners are competent in terms of governance” and this made the following thoughts run through my mind: 1. Only Southerners have been accusing fellow Southerners of corruption. Oshiomole has been attacking Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala as if Ngozi turned down his marriage proposal. The same Oshiomole tried to make nonsense of Akinwumi Adeshina’s successes in the agriculture sector. Ambode tried to pull Fashola down and successfully smeared him with stains. Maybe that’s why Fashola did not get the Chief of Staff role. I’m yet to see a Northerner accuse another Northerner of corruption, even when they belong to different parties. The closest a Northerner got was when the new Kano State Governor attacked Rabiu Kwankaso but he quickly sheathed his sword and even disowned previous reports of attacks. Why are we like this? 2. Are Southerners the only ones who are corrupt? Were there no northerner heading the ministries and parastatals? Did the outgone Comptroller-General of Customs, Abdullahi Dikko not have an alleged case of certificate forgery but he still served out his tenure until he resigned voluntarily? I’m not in support of corruption under any guise but the fight against corruption must not be seen to be sectional. 3. How come it’s easier for the President to believe that Sanni Abacha was not corrupt in spite of recovered loot while it is so easy for him to believe Goodluck Jonathan is irredeemably corrupt? 4. I still remember that aside from God, Tinubu made Tambuwal what he is today. The same Tambuwal would later call Femi Gbajabiamila ‘incompetent’ and rated Dogara as more competent. The same Tambuwal was propped up by Tinubu, a Southerner against a fellow Southerner, Mulikat Akande. Obasanjo was very key to denying Goodluck Jonathan a second term. A good number can still recall how OBJ tore his PDP membership card in public glare. The Northerners find it easy to support themselves but we are always pulling ourselves down. Babangida Aliyu, Sule Lamido and all the other Northern Governors including the former PDP Chairman Adamu Muazu often times refused to campaign for Goodluck Jonathan openly and many times even espoused the virtues of the opposing candidate on the rostrum! 5. Southern leaders and Presidents pull down Southern business men but prop up Northern ones. How many people still remember how Obasanjo ran Mike Adenuga out of town but both Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan made Aliko Dangote what he is today. No northern leader goes against their own. I dare to put it on record that President Buhari will never go against Aliko Dangote for any reason. 6. How come OBJ pardoned Salisu Buhari, the ex-Speaker who forged his credentials and he later was given an appointment as a Governing Council member of a University and heavens did not fall- but when Goodluck Jonathan pardoned Alamieyeseigha it became one of the major issues counted against him? Is there one rule for some and another rule for others? 7. We find it easy to raise our voices in support of the deportation of Buruji Kashamu but have no qualms with Atiku Abubakar strutting around the corridors of power. 8. Only Southerners find it so easy to abuse their elders when they voice opinions not in tandem with the popular opinion. We find it easy to diss Afenifere elders and call them ‘Afenifebi’ while hurling expletives and curses at them. We even abuse our kings and priests. Northerners will never abuse an Emir no matter how unpopular what he said is. Can you imagine any Northerner raising his voice against the Sultan? In spite of Tanko Yakassai, Balarabe Musa and Dangiwa Umar’s perceived support for Jonathan, northern youths did not abuse them. But our own youths run down our elders on social media while our educated elite also support the act. These are some of the thoughts that have been running through my mind. I don’t pretend to have all the answers and I do this at the risk of being labelled an ethnic bigot. The point however is that Southerners have to get their acts right. We have to put our house in order. The bickering must stop. Let’s engage our emotional intelligence. Let’s not allow others to exploit our tendency to self-destruct. 6 Likes 1 Share |

PassingShot: Buhari on a higher league? LMAOROTF. Buhari who needed an English language interpreter before he could communicate with Americans. Buhari who could not present his O'Level School Cert. but was allowed by Jega to contest the election because of power shift to the north. Buhari who emerged president owing to the rigged political structure where land mass was wrongly used as criterion to have a whooping number of 19 states and Abuja proliferated by northern soldiers in once one region north of Nigeria, but only 17 states in once two southern regions. Because of the rigged political structure, Buhari and people like him emerge president in a Nigeria with thousands of doctorate degree holders in political science, Harvard, Oxford, Cambridge, University PhD holders.

I'm certain of one thing: the moon, sun and the cloud over Nigeria Shall run it's course and in due season under this administration. A quick fix is not always the best; carefulness and deliberate change of direction makes a whole lot of things worth while. We are on the right path. |

agarawu23: Mugu. You didn't even understand what Tinubu meant to say when he wrote that change doesn't mean ejecting some set of leaders and replacing them with others. Tinubu meant to say that change must be fundamental to avoid those things that bring rot to the country. If I can read Tinubu here, I understand he meant to ask for the type of change he and his ACN group have been asking for years. Before APC, Tinubu and his ACN people have been asking for return of true and fiscal federalism to Nigeria. 1 Like |

Most Buharists that comment here hardly understood what Tinubu wrote here. In fact, one can easily deduce that almajiri people or almajiri-like people from north and south of Nigeria mostly constitute Buhari's followers/admires . 1 Like |

lurther: You actually meant GEJ is the dunce we all knew him to be. He is the slowpoke who has no sense of morality - of right or wrong. The kindergarten president who would sign documents without reading its contents as alleged by a PDP vice national chairman from his own Bayelsa state. He is that weakling who could not use 40% of his presidential powers as celebrated by a sycophant SGF, who unknown to us actually benefitted from such an irresponsible president that almost ruined the country, signing away her assets blindfolded. We have always known the trinity where all are equal and one. With Jonathan we had a presidential pentanity, where all are not equal and he was the least of them all. One day, even his own people will publicly flog their foolish son. 3 Likes |

Nice writeup from Tinubu but losers can continue to wail in their mediocrity. What do people expect from people who lost out after given all their votes to Jonathan; they kept shouting that they don't need any appointment from Buhari lead APC but alas! These chest beaters are now begging for what they say they don't want. Another tactics they use is to try & castigate/blackmail Buhari & APC so that they can get crumbles from the President. They ain't worth our sweat. 2 Likes |
