⭕Ministerial appointments: Tinubu not fair to Igbos – Segun ShowunmiPublished on August 9, 2023 By Francis Ugwu ⭕A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Segun Showunmi, has slammed President Bola Tinubu over the manner in which he is constituting his cabinet, claiming he’s not being fair to the southeast zone. ⭕ [Size=8pt] Showunmi claimed that the administration has done quite a lot of things that could be considered as serious missteps. He made the assertion on Wednesday while featuring on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme. Showunmi said he is a little bit uncomfortable with the fact that it’s beginning to seem that his people (southwest) would get larger positions in Tinubu’s government. He said, “You know I am a Yoruba man. Ironically, I have known Asiwaju for years. So there must be some kind of soft spot there. But I have tried very hard to say “let’s wait until hundred days”. Why? Because there’s a tradition and culture of “let them take hundred days to settle down”. “But unfortunately for this administration, they have done quite a lot of things that could be considered as serious missteps. “And they have done it in such a brazen and hurried manner that people are now forced to say no. “I have seen the kind of people he is putting in his cabinet, and I laughed at him; few brilliant persons but a few excessively recycled characters. If you come in this country and you want to do a paradigm shift, and your paradigm shift includes former governors. “There are 200 million people in this country. That particular party (APC) has been in charge for the last eight years. Whatever they are trying to clean now, their party caused it, their government caused it. “I have looked at the people he is putting together. I am a little bit uncomfortable with the fact that, if I may be honest with you, both of us Yoruba men, it’s beginning to seem that our people will get the best of the cherries. I can tell you the things we have already gotten and the things we are likely to get. “We are in charge of customs; we are in charge of police; we are in charge of army; we are in charge of CBN; we are in charge of FIRS; we are in charge of taxation; we are in charge of appropriation. “Have we become such a people that we can only be fair when we are talking about other people…. We have begun to see a pattern that all of the cream is coming to us. And what we would not accept from former President Buhari, who was fairer to us than he was to his people, we must be brave enough to say that this is not even the right thing for us. We are not suddenly going to become parochial people who insist that all of the things in the country…. “Does it not prick your soul that you’re putting ten in one place; nine in one place; seven in one place and five in one place. And you are giving the southeast (Igbos) five. I can tell you for free, there’s no mental capacity, validation, education, authentication that you are looking for in the world that you would not find Ndi Igbo, either in Nigeria or in the diaspora. Why is it now you’re telling me that you can only get five from them? These are the issues” [/Size] https://dailypost.ng/2023/08/09/ministerial-appointments-tinubu-not-fair-to-igbos-segun-showunmi/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8cYidofxIk Cc @OAM4J @Nlfpmod @Dominique @Mynd44 1 Share

Some folks' balls have finally dropped. PDP has learnt the art of playing an opposition party. I love criticisms like this. I watched this vibrant man yesterday on Politics Today. Above all, I trust the discretion of Baba Tinubu. I dedicate “Dues” by Wande Coal to Aşiwaju. Great jam! 1 Like |

After the last election nd Tinubu's emergence as the winner i just said lemme give the man a chance, nd that he may surprise everyone with quality governance just to prove a point so I started supporting him afterwards. But during that period my dad kept telling me to read James 3:11, nd after everything i've now realized that it's not possible for the devil to do good. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

The people singing about "paradigm shift" have been Obidents and they are doing it with a former governor who was a coIIosaI failure in office. PDP is doing same with a former VP whose impact on the society are part of the reasons for present day retrogression, since it's an opposition, former governors are bàd now. We only tend to say the truth about others no about ourselves. |

When you occupy any sensitive post in life, make your number1 enemy, the one that always wish you dead your minister of defence, it’s your problem. For Tinubu, his appointments have been a balance across all geopolitical zone in the country. Btw, how many ministers does this white bearded goat want 5 states from AfganEastern to produce? I beg park well |
