...So that we will know the Nigeria's IGPs since 1999 with their States of origin:
Musiliu Smith (1999 - 2002) - Lagos (SW)
Mustafa Adebayo Balogun (2002 - 2005) - Osun (SW)
Sunday Ehindero (2005 - 2007) - Ondo (SW)
Mike Mbama Okiro (2007 - 2009) - Rivers (SS)
Ogbonna Okechukwu Onovo (2009 - 2010) - Enugu (SE)
Hafiz Ringim (2010 - 2012)- Jigawa (NW)
Mohammed Dikko Abubakar (2012 - 2014) - Zamfara (NW)
Suleiman Abba (2014 - 2015) - Jigawa (NW)
Solomon Arase (2015-2016) - Edo (SS)
Ibrahim Kpotun Idris (2016-2019) - Niger (NC)
Mohammed Adamu (2019-2021) - Nassarawa (NC)
Usman Alkali Baba (2021-) - Yobe (NE)

In the light of the foregoing, it is clear that SW has produced 3 IGPs, all back to back when OBJ from the SW was at the saddle as the President of the FRN. NW has also produced 3 IGPs. SS and NC have produced 2 each, and SE 1. Until yesterday the NE had never produced an IGP.

MAY NIGERIA SUCCEED AMEEN

There should be a system, this is a country, not a one man organization, buhari is a civil servant, paid from the coffers of the people, he is a worker, elected to work for Nigeria, Nigerians, not the other way round, here there is a system, the former female prime minister resigned after much pressure, they are not god as they are worshipping buhari and co, the day people understand this peope are workers, civil servants, paid salary from the pockets of that nation. They take it by force. The whole security system no reach 2m, military to police to Dss to etc.... buhari is not a god as his people take him to be

Ozekhome himself is guilty of what he accuses Buhari of, he is a bastard thief. He is only complaining because he has lost access to Aso Rock and the easy money that goes with it.

This country can never grow until Nigerians set aside personal gain for the greater good.

If we begin complain for here e no go change anything so why we come Dey do like say na we beta pass

Oh, so GEJ fired abba and appointed Arase? Ie Jonathan had a northern Muslim as IG abi. He sacked him and appointed an edo man.
Obj according to you appointed ehindero a yoruba and later Mike okoro a rivers state man.
From what you have said, both presidents had something in common, they were not tribalist. They appointed folks without nepotism. Has the current oga done the same?

If you want to play dumb please don’t do that in the public’s domain. Is Arase,Ehindero, Okiro and Tafa Balogun from the North. Are they not appointed by a Southern President?
To your reasoning the North is just a Geopolitical zone, You forgot that there are 3 zones in the north. You want to claim those names I mentioned are not from the same place with those presidents? Can you also tell the whole world where Ex IGP Adamu is from in the north.

For your information OBJ appointed 3 IGPs from the SW.
Buhari has not appoint anybody from NW. what do you have to say.

Simply have nothing more to say to you. It's either you get it or chose to play dumb. The choice is yours.

Says the the foremost lawyer who provides safe havens for mega looters.

naija4life247:
The person that decorated the new IGP is a Professor of Law and far beyond Ozekohme's level in the legl profession, though the person that did the appointment is a Professor of Cows.

obviously you know nothing about Ozekhome.

sandymikky:

Every Abdullahi Mustapha doesn't have to be a Muslim but we know all the IGPs and all but 4 of the heads of security agencies he has appointed since 2015 are all northern Muslims and that's talking about 4 out of almost 30.

Has Buhari any regard for a northerner that's isn't Muslim? Tell me how many Christian Muslims he has entrusted with sensitive positions in his govt.

Nigerians aren't gullible, we know the north has even more ethnic groups than the South but we do know too that his first consideration in his relations with a northerner is his religion.

Jonathan appointed 4 IGPs, and only one is a Christan and he worked harmoniously with them, why can't Buhari trust a Nigerian that isn't Muslim?

Chief of defence staff General lucky Irabo
Boss Mustapha
Yemi Osibanjo
Chief of air staff Isiaka oladayo. What exactly do you know ?This is just a few amongst many. And before u make any twisted comments. I'm not from the north and I'm not a fan of Buhari at all. But it is people like u that gives them the weapon of misinformation against us. Try to get ur facts right. Just as I said before dont judge people by their names. And not every Mustapha is a Muslim. These politicians do not gives a rat as about culture or religion.
As if every northerner is out to get you. Gov woke, Gov hope Uzodima if my memory serves me right are SOUTHERN CHRISTIANS. Stop nepotism. If u want to mak accusations of nepotism try to get ur facts correctly.

Buhari cannot read and understand, the idiots know before voting him in.

Buhari can appoint my grandmother as IGP & nothing will happen. Their are people we need to stop listening to & Ozokhome is one of them. Our presidential system allows the president/governor to do anything he/she wants & get away with it. Buhari can Bomb my Local government & nothing would happen. That's how stupid those in government are. Senate na peppersoup

2023 pls

Is this man sleeping or in coma all these years since Nigeria so called independence.
Abeg make Dem no dey talk about the constitution again for lawless underdeveloped nation Nigeria.

Mr PDP lawyer, This is BUHARI kinda Democracy!

You either dine with him, or go to war with him!

The Man no send, since Members if the house have all decided to be advance MORONS.

Sometimes, it will do you good to just keep quiet if you lack basic knowledge of certain fundamental issues of national discuss.
It's not a must that you comment on issues that's far beyond your narrow comprehensibility.
One can be a law professor like your Osibanjo and still don't know his onions.
An SAN in the person of Mike Ozekohme is a million time better than a law professor who appears to have forgotten all the laws and is aiding and abating illegality.
Go and read Sections 215 (1) & 216 (2) of the 1999 Constitution as amended. And then come back to belittle Ozekohme

most of these #sanlawyes amuse me a lot!hear this one saying something that is even known to a layman!NAWA!does one simply talk for talking sake?I WONDER OOOH...

Nauttyprof:


So, are you suggesting we should do things by precedence and not by getting things right?

Are you suggesting that since corruption was the order of the day in previous government, it must continue?

Are you suggesting that if tribalism had been the order of the day, then it should continue?

Definitely, Nigeria can never progress with reasoning as this.

Ogah, this your symmetrization holds no value in this case.
Where was that ipob lawyer when those before Buhari appointed IG during their time? Or is it today that he got to know existence of those procedures he wants public to believe were not followed by Buhari?
It would have been better for to have opposed the appointment base on ethnic ground rather than trying to smuggle in constitutional matter to justify his obsession.
By the way, since he feels the constitutionality of the appointment is at stake and him being a lawyer, what prevents him from challenging it in the law court? If he refuses to do that, then all he says will remain normal wailing and personal opinion of an ethnic jongoist who is aggrieved because his tribal person was not fortunate to have been handed the appointment.
