Buhari ‘specifically’ Asked Us To ‘shift’ Our Focus Towards Developing Northern by RipplesNigeria: 6:55am On Oct 13, 2017
The President of the World Bank Group, Jim Yong Kim, said Thursday that the bank had concentrated on the northern region of Nigeria because President Muhammadu Buhari “specifically” requested that it did so.

Kim and the Managing Director, International Monetary Fund (IMF), Christine Lagarde, who spoke at separate press conferences in Washington DC, United States, also advised Buhari to invest in initiatives that would enhance economic growth.

Kim said, “You know, in my very first meeting with President Buhari he said specifically that he would like us to shift our focus to the northern region of Nigeria and we’ve done that. Now, it has been very difficult. The work there has been very difficult.

As expected from an ineffective buffoon. No surprise you have always been the president of the North, my worries the useless Westerners that supported your northern agenda.

Why not?

Southern Nigerians are always quick to mention that the Northern region is the worst in all human development indices, the highest level of poverty, and always claim it is the region that is dragging the rest of the country backward.

What then is wrong if the President responsible for the progress of the whole country asks the World Bank to focus on the North? The region that is claimed to be impeding the country's collective progress?

Is this plain hypocrisy, wickedness or collective bipolarity of southerners?

World Bank, please continue your focus on the "backward" North.
