why are kaduna people against her nomination?

She has an intimidating CV. Let's wait and see the senator that'll come out and say she's not worthy of a ministerial position. We'll ask him/her to go and bring his/her CV.

Dino Melaye, representing the Senate, has just announced on national television that Senators will be recognized only as citizens of states from which they originate, and not states where they marry.

Please, Nigeria, how can this help improve her service to the entire nation if she was born in Kaduna and married in Gombe, and not born in Gombe and married in Kaduna. Why can't these people focus on the most important things?

She is a Nigerian, and that is that.

She is ok however let us be reminded that NOI has same pedegree with her yet we all knw d end: i hv a dream that one day an hungry man will be made to be minister of hunger affair and not a fat-belly man to oversee hungry pple

What an impressive and mind blowing CV, All things being equal, this woman is gonna be one of the brains driving this government to greatness...


Modified
. ...poster below got some senses in his words..Relax, with the new sheriff in town,that spirit of corruption has been decimated!

She has a good profile and reputation. i just hope that irimokwo spirit of extreme corruption that swallowed Diezani Alison-Madueke or whatever they called that Jezebel of a woman don't take over this new One when she is finally appointed as a minister. Another challenge in this are Nigeria Senates that are Allergic to Change and Positive thinking for this country, cause this woman's profile is really interesting and one that cannot be ignored. Watching in 4D High Definition Lens

Meanwhile in other news i heard our very own Mr clueless is being appointed as an Observer in one country like that, someone who cannot fight Kwurruption as Head of State in his own country. I pity that country, it's well.

Astounding. Hopes she delivers .

What a excellent academic pedigree,another technocrat , this is change!!!

Gbam!!!

OP, you left out the part that she was a CO-founder and thief of the Afri-projects consortium. She was responsible for over inflated projects, financial impropriety and kickbacks paid by contractors. She is just another Big thief carefully hidden by the Zombie-slave Southwest media.

Admittedly, she has an impeccable CV. But which colleges did she graduate from??
