Are The Best Leaders In Nigeria Likely Found In The North? by Blackteeth(m): 8:16pm On Mar 02, 2011 |
The following honest leaders are only from northern extraction: 1. Sanusi Lamido Sanusi 2. Nuhu Ribadu 3. Umaru Musa Yar'Adua 4. Muhammadu Buhari 5. Attahiru Jega I don't remember any competent leader from yoruba or Igbo extraction who can fit into the above category of names. Please try to remind me if there are any. |

# 3 and #5 should be removed from your list immediately. For #3 refer to the wikileaks revelations on Yar'Adua and his smuggler friend. Also the crisis of government that resulted from his refusal to resign and transfer power to the VP is not a good example of leadership. For #5 refer to the bungled voter registration saga that is still ongoing. He could be honest, but certainly not among the "best" leaders in Nigeria. As for #2, that's debatable. He was previously Obasanjo's attack dog. He also said he would not investigate those who were funding him as a candidate (that he doesn't care where the money comes from). As for # 4, he worked for Sani Abacha as head of the PTF and appointed one of his relatives to an important position in that organization. Also he used the PTF money to disproportionately develop roads in the North as against the South. So you basically only have one person, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, left for the North. |

PhysicsMHD, I know but, No one in Nigerian politics can be without stains. It is based on how lightly stained their garment is. |

No. Just their leaders are more prominent, since their region has more "votes." |

Any sort of list of leaders that does not contain the likes of Olisa Agbakoba, Festus Keyamo, Tai Solarin, Gani Fawehinmin and Wole Soyinka is a non-starter. Those guys are our real leaders at street level. [s]1. Sanusi Lamido Sanusi 2. Nuhu Ribadu 3. Umaru Musa Yar'Adua 4. Muhammadu Buhari[/s] 5. Attahiru Jega Just one is left standing of the crowd above. |

Beaf: @ Beaf: That list is no where near complete, but Muhammadu Buhari will definitely make such list. But am very glad Jonathan is a million miles near that list All he have is a Fisherman-Zoologist who causes a bad omen to his superiors. And when they are gone, we consider him Lucky! This is not a casino in Las Vegas, ok! |

egift: I am surprised that an Igbo man can join in the bigoted "fisherman" talk. You are indeed a fool, it is your family that are fishermen, not us. |

Beaf: I have lived in many river-line communities - and we fished. Menh it was cool. But Beaf, tell me - Jonathan is from a Mangrove/Rain-forest community, tell us that time he "had no shoes" did he hunt animals in the bush, fished in the streams and rivers of Bayelsa? Or he have become a golden boy that has lost touch with his past and worst ashamed of it like you. |
