yode Fayemi, Minister of Mines and Steel Development, has been accused of executing a policy designed to marginalize Northerners in the ministry for the sole benefit of the Southwest geo-political zone.

The accusation was contained in a public petition addressed to President Muhammad Buhari.

Signed by Joshua Yilnung and Halidu Gimba, the petition called on the President to stop the minister's undisguised nepotism and sectionalism in the ministry before they cause greater disharmony.

According to the petitioners, Dr. Fayemi, in concert with ethnic affiliates in the ministry, is working on a plot to implicate Directors-General of Northern extraction in the ministry. The aim of the plot, explained the petitioners, is to create vacancies in their positions to be filled by people from the southwest, where the minister hails from.

"Indeed Nigerians of other extractions do not find favor in the Ministry of Mines and Steel other than southwesterners," alleged the petition.

he D-G of the Jos-based National Metallurgical Development Centre has been battling with crisis at the center. The crisis is alleged to have been instigated by Dr. Fayemi, who was said to have pushed some staff to write a petition containing 17 workers' union issues against the DG, who was not even served the petition.

However, only three of the issues were related to the union, while the others were "frivolous" and were meant to be used by Dr. Fayemi to remove the DG and replace him with a Yoruba man.

"The management crises, sectionalism and nepotism are detailing the ministry from its core objectives and making a mockery of the anti-corruption fight by the present administration and are injurious to the country's unity and national cohesion," the petitioners argued.

The mumu did not even try to play the southern card but the Afonja card.

Yorubas support Northerners
IPOB: Afonjas are slave, they will always support Aboki masters.

Yoruba move against northerners
IPOB: Afonjas are tribalist and unfit for leadership at the centre.

Seriously, you Igbos really need to do a soul searching and get your priorities right. Stop hating Yoruba's unnecessary over every issue. We don't give a fuçk about you Igbos, stop making every issues about the Yorubas.

..and Yoruba support the Easterners? Never heard of it, since amalgamation of 1914

Someone should please ascertain the size of scissors these Northerners are using in cutting these afonjas to size.


I serioously need the answer to be sure of something because it seems they are having no hitches in cutting them to size.



Usu si, ma ya, ma onye nwe Owere, toro ato.


In their pathetic minds, Gej and his Igbo aides have gone for good. It is time now for yorubas to set stomach down for our wealth drainage. Guess they are still yawning consistently waiting for the petrodollars to flow.

Hahhahahhahaha

After the general election of 1959, Yorubas supported Azikiwe to become the prime minister with Awo as finance minister. Azikiwe spurned that support and accepted to become a powerless ceremonial president with Balewa as prime minister.

In 1979, Awo wanted a southern unity against the north. He selected an Ibo man, Philip Umeadi as his running mate and again, the Ibos rejected the offer and supported Shagari/Ekwueme.

My friend, we can't change history. The facts speak for itself.

ndi hausa still dey complain after them colonize all the aspect of our economy, this northerners no get sense at all

Bubu is a very useless man. He set an example of nepotism by appointing only notherners into strategic positions.

The minister is just but a fast learner. He's is executing a skill he learnt from Buhari.

Nonsense

Yorubas can't move against the northerners cos their destiny is tied to the North

Any move against the north will render you orphans

No Southerner wants you, so stick with your Master or become orphaned

Good

History revisionists at it again

The same Awo that ensured Zik was deposed in the Western house which made him to play the same card by deposing the Efik man at the Eastern house.

We are not ignorant of our history

We have a historical record of your betrayals since the day of Awo

As 9ja matter take tire God, ná so e take tire me...

Hehehe the hunter now becoming the hunted? .Hello Bubu-are you there?

I trust PMB wont even listen to them.

Fayemi must be rewarded to turning his back on Tinubu.

Honestly, I don't know what the yeasterners are celebrating already?

Pathetic human beings!

"As long as it is Sahara reporters, I don't believe it because it's a Lagos-Ibadan expressway journalism doing the will of its paymasters,Sowore is a joke".

restructuring


regionalism

these are the only solution to this country but the selfishness of power hungry leaders will not do the needful

our leaders are deliberately wicked

Nigerian problem can be liking to a polygamous husband emerging three house wives to co-habitate in one apartment which will always cause a commotion

haha why the tin dey pain them shebi dem na dem sabi do tribalism pass

Afonja always tribalistic. Trust dullardpoo to yank off the tiger clawed face soon and continue his northern agenda.

Hausa must rule us till eternity, afonja if u complain let thunder scatter ur ewedu mouth

Typical Coward Osu carrying a flat head wud say this...northerners respect afonjas a lot compared to you while ur Osu women are all naked In prostitution In d northern region.

I served In d Northern side when they knw I'm yoruba they treats me well compared to an Osu.

I lived in Edo and part of Delta likewise they treated me above any Osu.
Listen,
Afonjas as tried to helped Okorocha become president last year but his votes were not enough in d APC primaries.

Afonjas helped Nnamdi Azikwe become d ceremonial president in d 60s.

Afonja helped Good luck Jonathan to become president in his first tenure.

The question is what has Osu people help afonjas to become? Nothing apparently you are bunch of insatiable, parasitic sects who wanna invade to any afonjas land to become a native of dat place.

Anytime there is an issue between sw and north, the se always say they wanna seat on the fence and watch but they always end up starting an unnecessary argument.

You support North u are a slave
You Fight against North you a re tribalist
You are neutral they call you coward
