TRIBALISM: BUHARI BREAKS CIVIL SERVICE RULES, BYPASS CHIZEA TO APPOINT AHMAD AS DG OF SPACE AGENCY

President Mohammadu Buhari seems unbothered over his appointments which smacks of nepotism, tribalism and religious bigotry following the naming of Dr. Halilu Shaba Ahmad as the new Director General, DG, of the National Space Research and Development Agency, NARSDA.

Buhari had in a letter to the Senate President Ahmed Lawan, asked the Senate to confirm the appointment of Dr. Ahmad as the new DG of NARSDA.
But Pointblanknews.com investigations reveal that Ahmad who was first appointed in June 2009 is ranked number five from the December 2018
Staff nominal roll of NARSDA, making him ineligible to be appointed DG
based on Civil Service Rules.


According to findings, Dr. Francis Chizea Dubem who was first appointed in August 1991 and who was Acting DG after the tenure expiration of Dr.
Jonathan Angulu, is ranked number two on the nominal roll of NARSDA.

Professor Mohammed Saido Onailo who is ranked number one on the nominal roll has already retired.

Dr. Francis Chizea is the most senior officer in NARSDA, according to a memo signed by the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Science and
Technology, Dr. M.B Umar in 2019.


Sources told Pointblanknews.com that the Chief of Staff to the President, Prof. Ibrahim Gambari, may have influenced the choice of Ahmad.

According to sources Ahmad have been bragging to his colleagues in the office how his relationship with Prof. Gambari will secure him the DG of
the agency even when he knows he is not in line.


The agency had on July 2, 2019, announced the appointment of Mr Jonathan Angulu as an acting Director-General to facilitate a seamless transition
process between the outgone DG and an incoming one. Mr Jonathan handed over to Dr Ahmad two days earlier to continue in an acting capacity
until the Federal Government appointed a substantive Director-General.

In a dramatic and unexpected turn of events, the Federal Government reversed the appointment of Dr. Ahmad. The reason adduced for this decision was that the appointment of Dr. Ahmad “was made in violation of civil service regulation and amounted to an infraction of regulatory
policies”.

Sources told Pointblanknews.com that Ahmad kept on pushing and lobbying, using his contacts in the Presidency.

According to a source, “he hardly comes to the office. He is always at the Presidential Villa lobbying for a position that he is not qualified
for. He claims that the Chief of staff to the President is related to his mother and that nothing can stop him from getting the appointment
against civil service rules.”

Ahmad is from Lapai in Niger State while Chizea is from Aniocha in Delta State.

This is not new.

This administration has consistently favoured a tribe over others, and it is no more surprising.

Let them keep doing it. When we go our separate ways before 2023, they can keep appointing themselves in their own country.

For once remove your mouth from the anus of sycophancy and objectively analyse the article. Lopsided appointments based on ethnicity like this one is one of the remote causes of the Rwandan genocide. Use your God-given conscience and stop being the mouthpiece of people who are destroying the country.

You are talking like this because you are I'll informed .
The former DG was not an Ibo man, he is from KOGI state an Igala man. Kindly do your research before you bring forth fake news which you know nothing about .
The acting DG that left Jonathan Angulu is a junkun man from Taraba state .

You and Buhari are the same. The civil service rule states out the criteria for that position. The rule doesn't know tribe but what is best for the service. Talking about a Southerner succeeding another Southerner, I have not seen you condemn the numerous Northerners succeeding another Northerners in this regime even when the successor is not qualify for the position. People like you will cry more when the table is turned, just soon, in about 2yrs time, it will turn.
When it turns, the big favour that the Northerners were getting from a southern president for equity and population sake will no longer come because we will reference all that is happening now. If you even succeed in impeaching him, we will scatter the country for everybody to go their separate ways. This administration has opened the eyes of many to tilt towards tribalism.
Anytime the North leaves Aso Rock will be the beginning of their dooms day as they will see in full effect what Buhari has done to them.

He was appointed 30 years ago!! shocked
The year 99% of the children of hate, perdition and frustrations wailing now were not even born.
Hypocrisy will make them be blind to that.
Shame on y'all.

Anyways....

We have learnt not to bother ourselves anymore to avoid unnecessary mentions from nonentities.
As some of us have said, it's good governance we want, even if only one village will be producing the Presidents et al.
So be it.

The new DG mr Ahmad is from Lapai Niger state, he is a Nupe man he is not hausa Fulani ,the last substantive DG Prof Mohammed Saidio is an Igala man from Kogi state he is not Hausa/Fulani. So what is the problem? where is the tribalism here? I think you people have a problem with anything muslim name.

The best president only hated by monkeys and pigs. They hate Buhari because he is Alien to them, he doesn't drink Alcohol, womanize, eat pigs, and believe in hereafter. They wanted their type. If anyone tells you their hatred of Buhari is not because of religion/ethnicity. They're lying. Buhari did his best for them, in infrastructures while he even abandoned Arewa. He only appointed Northerners to checkmate the discrepancies.
