He need to follow the footstep of the person that put him in that seat so let it not be a surprise thing to us

That 1 SE slot should have been given to the SW. The SW deserves 5 not 4..

South East people are not interested in Nigeria.

Many of us saw this coming, but some certain myopic persons due to greed and their personal interest, brought us to where we are today. More of these nepotistic appointment will be coming up in the coming days
