Tribalism: Why Buhari Is Smarter Than Tinubu by SSFeedsNigeria: 11:30am On Sep 18, 2023
Tinubu is entrenching a dangerous dimension to our politics in Nigeria. He has elevated tribalism to brazen heights. When I see Yorubas defending him passionately I just shake my head. Let's even agree that Buhari was equally nepotistic, but since when did two wrongs start making right?

These people complained under Goodluck Jonathan time and accused him wrongly of being against them. The fact remains that Jonathan had as much Yorubas as Igbos in his government, but these people were never satisfied. They kept blackmailing Jonathan. Today, they're so excited that Tinubu is fixing only Yorubas in strategic positions in Nigeria. Is that not the height of hypocrisy and selfishness?

Even Buhari was not this stupid in his nepotism. Dude carried Northerners along in his nepotism. He didn't make use of only Fulanis but involved most other Northerners. But look at Tinubu, he is busy favoring only Yorubas. He has turned his government into Oduduwa affair. If this man is smart, he would have carried other Southerners along just like Buhari carried other Northerners. This is why Northerners are always smarter in politics than Southerners. When they finally come for this bigot in power, he will have only yorubas to fight for him. We will see if they will be enough to defend him or they will suddenly remember other Southerners? Unfortunately for them, we Southerners will either remain indifferent or even team up with Northerners.

You can start by naming the Yorubas appointed by Jonathan and what position they held.
It was also Ok when OBJ made Ibos the anchor of his government.
Ibo was ok for Buhari to tilt towards Hausa/Fulani
Now it is Jagaban's turn and the tears are flowing endlessly.

If you are wise, you will not be insulting your grandmother and grandfather's age mate. You can wail , it is your wail, in fact, you have a constitutional right to wail, but don't insult. Any serious President anywhere in the world will get his loyalists who are competent and patriotic to help him build his administration, he will not fill everywhere with folks like you who work against him and never wish him well.

He learnt from the manner the PDP appointed Mr Emefiele that President Muhammadu Buhari retained almost singlehandedly brought down his govt and even went to divide the camp of APC so that PDP could return to power.

You have all lost. We will support Asiwaju Tinubu to succeed and it's not too late for you to join but if you want to remain as sore loser, it's your choice.

God will bless Asiwaju Tinubu and bless Nigeria for ever! Nothing for anyone who wants to sneak in to bring bad luck to the govt. Remain where you are and form sensible opppsition instead of wailing

As nothing good ever results from promoting inequitable standards, Jagaban is going to have to change course.

Reasonable people should encourage the government to set in motion plans to restructure our polity, instead of fanning the embers of an ethnically-driven power grab. The winner-takes-it-all approach is a recipe for disaster as any good student of our nation's history should know.

Moving forward, what Nigeria needs is a weaker centre in the spirit of true federalism - and Tinubu more than anyone else knows this based on his antecedents.

The former governor of Lagos State called for a return to the ideals of the 1963 Constitution, which he said guaranteed fiscal federalism, regional autonomy, regional constitutions, and progressive competition among the federating units.

Tinubu said, “Many of the 68 items on the Exclusive Legislative List should be transferred to the Residual Legislative List,” explaining, “This would be in harmony with the 1963 Constitution, again an instance of reaching back to revive something old yet more likely to give us a better Nigeria. That prior constitution granted vast powers to the regions, enabling them to carry out their immense responsibilities as they saw fit.”

I like your submission here. The best way to achieve this is true genuine engagement with the government. Vicious and acerbic criticism aimed at discrediting the government is not the way to go.
I am sure you have seen the type of language being used already.

Allow him to appointment people he feel comfortable with
As the tenure goes on he may decide to balance the quota system depending on the support he is getting from other regions
You can't hate him and expect him to appoint your people no it's not done in politics everyone likes to play safe

Now it is Jagaban's turn and the tears are flowing endlessly.

Olusegun Aganga, Adeshina, and the current Arise anchor man, among several other yorubas played key roles in Jonathan's government. But you guys are never satisfied except you're giving everything. Now, Tinubu is doing that and you guys are happy.

You think the world revolves around Yorubas? Posterity will judge!
Re: Tribalism: Why Buhari Is Smarter Than Tinubu by SSFeedsNigeria: 4:55pm On Sep 18, 2023
They are extremely tribalistic in nature. The only reason why they hated Obasanjo is because he isn't a bigot. Obasanjo is broad minded and has seen it all but Tinubu is just a bigot pandering to their whims, so they love him.

SMH.

.You are just plain wailers.
Tinubu,history and current reality have shown that Yorubas are good administrators even they are also cherished abroad.
.Other tribes are also good.
We all want Tinubu to work positively.
Are you people saying that he should just pick people without looking at what he promised Nigerians?
Well,he is different from Buhari and even Jonathan who showed their bigotry especially the neponistic Buhari who didn't care for the growth of Nigeria.
Look at this:

Buhari:
NNPC GMD FULANI
CUSTOM FULANI
NPA. FULANI
FINANCE. FULANI
NIMASA FULANI
COAS FULANI
EFCC. FULANI
IGP. FULANI
AVIATION FULANI
FIRS. FULANI
DSS. FULANI

TINUBU

FINANCE YORUBA
FIRS. YORUBA
COAS YORUBA
CHIEF OF DEF. KAJE
AVIATION. EFIK
EFCC FULANI
DSS FULANI
NPA FUANI
NIMASA FULANI
IGP YORUBA
CUSTOMS. YORUBA
NNPC GMD KANURI

The difference is there.
Tinubu is mainly concerned about the economy and growth of Nigeria.
Pls,bear with him.
