Nigerians on Twitter Accuse Tinubu of Tribalism, For Bypassing Brilliant Dr. Kingsley Obiora, who graduated best overall student in his class both at University of Benin and University of Ibadan.

Anyone who knows Dr. Obiora especially at University of Ibadan, including his professors, will tell you he is not from this planet. He is the deputy governor heading economic policy and research and the only deputy governor with Phd.

Tinubu not only bypassed the most qualified academically Dr. Kingsley Obiora, he also bypassed the most senior deputy governors Mrs. Aishah N, Ahmad and Mr. Edward Adamu, to appoint a Yoruba mechanical engineer as CNB governor.

You guys are just stupid. He asked him to hand over to a Director, not appoints a Director. A substantive CBN Governor is coming, u should not allow hates to becloud your judgment. Emefiele destroyed Buhari govt because they are not from thesame tribe.Giving CBN Governor to Obiora is suicide move, he will only fund Ipob and gunmen in Igbo land. Igbos are not loyal to Nigeria

The race is not for the Swift, neither the battle for the stronger.A careful observation of emiefele,would guide Tinubu to choose with care. Obiora again??

Please they should go to court like Mr Obi since they can not see that the least of all the Deputy Governors in terms of hierarchy is Mr Obiora. Smh

You don't know Tinibu, he may even pick this Obiora as substantive CBN Gov.

I believe 70% the next CBN Gov will be SW/SE, unless his political circle thinks otherwise.

Well said. But have you observed that there a lot of igbos in the Lagos State civil service who are mostly obidient who openly opposed the APC in favor of labor party at every level in the last elections?

There is therefore a high probability that appointing Dr Obiora will definitely not give the president the confidence of undiluted loyalty to his government and his planned reforms, which become almost equivalent to retaining Emefiele in the position in terms of trust. This may be why he was passed over. Moreover, there is slim chance that if nothing is found against Emefiele then he may resume his duties according to the principle of innocent until proven guilty.

This is why this move is not yet a big deal at least until the unveiling of the full cabinet, which must reflect inclusiveness regardless of party sentiments. These are some of the valid considerations I believe.

All igbos don't hate tonubu. I am an igbo from delta state too. Leadership should be all inclusive. Peace is very important. Today he is the leader so the onus is on him to ignore the tribal slurs. I trust him to do that as he has proven to be a man of peace

Dr. Obiora Is an Igbo man and you are expecting Tinubu to appoint him as CBN governor, that’s impossible

Igbos should move on with their lives and forget this new government for their own peace of mind
Leave Obiora to queue for his turn behind Shonubi. Shonubi has 30 years experience, he properbly got their before Obiora. Also, Shonubi is expected to be more brilliant for him to come from engineering background and rise to the top. Engineers are usually exceptional in terms of intellect and creativity. He didn't just get their by chance, he worked harder to get to that stage. Organizations and financial institutions usually prefer candidates with engineering background because of their computation prowess. Obiora is behind Shonubi in hierarchy, he should wait for his turn. Getting first class on paper in economics, doesn't make you expert or intellectually superior. Someone from science background are expected to be brighter in many instances

Tinubu as Governor appointed Ben Nwabueze as Commissioner for Budget. Joe Igbokwe was APC spokesperson.
Nasir Elrufai appointed Igbos that I know and Yorubas while he was Governor.
sanwo appointed someone from Katsina as Commissioner in Lagos.
Sanwo appointed someone from delta as Commissioner in Lagos.

Mention 1 single Yoruba or Northerner appointed in the 5 Igbo states since 1999 till date.

Yet, you Igbos are the ones crying of tribalism. Don't you have shame?
They don't have shame.
There aim is just to blackmail...they know there are many gullible people that will fall for it!
Honestly, I hate those people attitude.They behave like nuisance. Very loquacious

How many people has he appointed?
Just 3....one yoruba,one TIV and one hausa!

And you people have started crying. Even if he had appointed all from Igbo you will still look for a loophole to wail about.like "he is trying to appease the Igbo"...."he want us to forget Peter obi"....."other tribes are not intelligent ",your usual gibberish and rants.

As for Shonubi,he is just acting because he is the next in line

I could bet my two balls (scrotum) u will be the one telling him (Obi) if he ever be ,to appoint his tribesmen in key position like the CBN governor.We are never wrong to point out that u guys are the most tribalistic set in this country.Tinubu will keep doing what he deems fit to propel this country forward and Ur likes can only do the talk

Ethnic Tension: Their Minions Are Also Victims

There seems to be a method to the madness that is Nigerian politics, often employing the divide-and-rule strategy. This technique proves highly effective, with politicians utilizing it and their foot soldiers (aka minions) executing it skillfully. Of course, dividing a people requires targeting the 'weakest links,' which, unfortunately, are not in short supply.

In my previous newsletter, I acknowledged Nigerian politicians' remarkable ability to undermine the nation's fragile unity using this tool. At that time, Hilda Bassey had achieved a record-breaking milestone, and Nigerians from all walks of life came together to show their support.

Here's what I said, "Under the changing climatic conditions, they stood. They danced, cheered, chanted, and feasted. They all shared in the unity that has continued to be tested. For 100 hours, she cooked, and Nigerians watched on. It didn't matter who she was at that point, support poured in uninhibited.

"That fabric of unity only starts to deteriorate when some self-indulgent politicians chip at it during their election leagues (they are leagues, and the game's an extreme sport). They use that unity as a base point of attack."

That fabric of unity is under serious test, even beyond the election period when this strategy is commonly employed. It comes as no surprise, as divisive narratives persistently emerge as a distraction from the most important conversations necessary to benefit all Nigerians... to read more: https://fourthgaze.substack.com/p/ethnic-tension-their-minions-are
