I found it ridiculous when people like you try to justify wrong thing with the fact that somebody had done the same in the past and people did not complain. You should be ashame of yourself

ItsMeAboki:
See how the tribal bigot have suddenly gone quiet or stayed away.

femidejulius:
While OBJ was President, can you pls tell the world the region the following head of security came from:
EFCC Chairman
NSDC Comptroller General
Immigration Comptroller General
Custom Comptroller General
National Security Adviser

Were these all from the same region during Obasanjo's time? Why are they all from same region today

Let's talk about education:
Did the following came from the same region during OBJ? Why are they from same region today?
Minister of education.
Executive Secretary NBTE
Executive Secretary NUC


President Buhari is raised nepotism to the highest height so far.

Still waiting for you to cry why economy team are all from the south

femidejulius:


Who is the minister of finance?
Who is NDIC chairman?
Only the CBN governor is from the south and the reason is because the president lacks the constitutional powers to sack him.

adem30:


But Jonathan have the constitution power to sack Sanusi.

ItsMeAboki:


What is wrong with the present appointment; do you honestly believe that ethno-regional balance considerations should override those of expediency and exigency on a serious matter such as national security - if so why then have ppl like you not also lent their voices to the ongoing ethnic/regional imbalance in the current economic team which is composed of 100% southerners?
Note, the same Buhari who is being unfairly labelled as an ethnic bigot is the same person who appointed them.

truthfulparrot:


The Economic Management Team (EMT) is Chaired by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, and has the following members:

Minister of Finance
Minister of Budget and National Planning
Minister of State for Budget and National Planning
Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment
Minister of Agriculture
Minister of Information and Culture
Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria
Special Adviser to the President on Economic Matters
Director-General of the Budget Office
Director-General of the Debt Management Office
Director-General of the National Bureau of Statistics
The team meets weekly at the State House.

Though you have a point that the economic team is lopsided your assertion of 100% Southerners is not correct. Nevertheless, PMB is politically naive and the politicians are taking advantage of that. His aides and advisers failed to cautioned him that federal character and merit should be respected in all his appointment.

*All these happened yet some people kept quiet, now they are talking nonsense.*
*Bishop Bolanle Gbonigi led a delegation to protest the lopsidedness twice. "Jonathan promised to do something about it; he never did". "OPC founder, Faseun, took two-page advert in The Guardian in November 2011 to draw attention to it; nothing was done to correct it".*
*Many have forgotten it was like that in the First Republic. Akintola kept drawing our attention to it, but his outcry was overshadowed, indeed drowned, by the crisis in the Action Group. He always spoke of Ikejiani, Iketa-ani!!!*
*An aspect of efforts to correct it with Richard Akinjide as Education Minister led to crisis at Unilag instigated by Dr. Ben Nwabueze, now Professor. Akinjide sought to replace Prof. Eni Njoku with Prof. Saburi Biobaku. You may wish to remember that he was stabbed by an Adams, a Yoruba student in our accustomed detribalization and liberalism. Until Akinjide became minister of education under Balewa, the Yorubas hardly got federal scholarships. If at all it was tokenism.*

*Among the first set of Yorubas to benefit from Akinjide's attempted redress in 1965 was Professor Akinyemi to pursue his higher degrees at Cambridge. At the time just go to Yaba Tech, or NBC, especially Voice of Nigeria headed by Chinua Achebe, yes the same Achebe.*

*Go to all the Federal Govt parastatals of that era. What of federal civil service, particularly the upper echelon. It was then speculated at the time that the reason Zik did not cooperate with Awolowo in 1959 to form Govt was so that he could put his people in different vital positions in pursuit of his dream that it was a matter of time when the Igbos would dominate and rule the whole of Africa. At the time Njoku was at Unilag, Kenneth Dike was the Vice Chancellor at the University of Ibadan, appointed over the head of his superiors, "Oladele Ajose" who was in fact the only black already on the Academic Board of UI; Dr. Sanya Onabamiro; and Dr. Victor Oyenuga. Dike and Hezy Oluwasanmi were on the same level, the fourth ring. Dr. Francis Ibiam was chairman of Council. So, he went to London University to lobby for Kenneth Dike, his kinsman. Incidentally, Dike was in Canada at the time on sabbatical.*

*The Yoruba academics then led a protest delegation to Chief Awolowo at Oke Ado. He calmed them down and said the answer was in the West setting up its own university. He asked them to give him a paper. That was what led to the founding of the University of Ife!!!.*

*While Dike held sway, the halls, catering, drycleaning services were all dominated by Igbos.*

Enabulele George Osaze
Let me add to this, President Goodluck Jonathan removed General Dambazzau as the COAS and replaced him with General Ihejirika, he removed Afrikiya Gadzama as DSS boss and replaced him with Ita Ekpenyong, The economy team of this govt is dominated by Southerners but nobody is talking about it because it does not suit their narrative.
