kingoflag: Its always good to know when to tap out; you don't have to wait until your arm has been severed from your shoulders. Remember, you can't hit the mat with your palms if your hand has been broken.

You lost this fight: GIVE UP!!!

By the way, aren't you ashamed that your First Lady is a University Graduate but yet still manages to come across as barely literate? SMH

Kobojunkie: When I say people need to do a better job OPENING their eyes to what is right in front of them, some will tell me that I am being rude. The article clearly explained there why the Mimiko appointment cannot be compared with the Patience Doodluck appointment and why we should not try to paint it all with the same brush since technically appointments are only illegal if the person being appointed is severely unqualified or unacceptable by applicable rules and regulations.

@FSU, your post above tells us that he was the MOST QUALIFIED for the post at the time, in all of the candidates. Also, if you read the comments that followed the report you pulled People condemned it then.

So forgive me if I still do not see the usefulness of your posting an appointment which was generally not protested in Ondo state, in 2006, on in a thread in 2012, on another appointment in another state, Bayelsa. What do you hope to achieve? To get people to shut up and say [size=14pt]"it is OK for Bayelsa state to appoint a woman who has been a full-time house wife for the last 12 years(None of that time spent improving her skills and self)to office of permanent secretary, because in 2006, in Ondo State, Mimiko appointed his brother, who had at the time a PHD and about 2 years tenure as a professor, to a VC position in Ondo State"? [/size] Is that your goal? Is that your point?

At least read the article you posted on the Mimiko appointment. I was never a fan of that dude but the article speaks well of the brother in terms of his qualification.

Kobojunkie: I am not an eejit that you offer fluff arguments to. I want details. Since you want to ignore her not doing anything at all the last 12 years, a period longer than she even served, What was her work history from 1989 when she supposedly graduated to 1997/8 when Jonathan was appointed as deputy Governor.

Tolexander: professor mimiko's appointment was base on merit. And also was an acting vc before mimiko came in as governor before his predecessor terminated d appointment based on politics. You dont need coming here to bend two parallel lines to meet.

Kobojunkie: This is a seriously brain-dead arguing from someone who seems devoid of common sense. I cannot believe I am even spending my time on this nonsense. I usually try to stay away from labeling stuff in this way but this has got to be from the pits of senselessness.

Kobojunkie: Question for you . . where did I say she cannot come back to civil service. What has that to do with what I have said so far?

What degree? What experience? Again, how many years did she work? what status did she hold when he left in the late 90's. Notice that no matter which way you try to cut it, she has about 7/8 years to insert all that into. Now, I ask you for the details since you seem to posit that you have em.

Dame Jonathan obtained the National Certificate of Education (NCE) in Mathematics/ Biology in 1989 from the Rivers State College of Education and a Bachelor of Education in Biology and Psychology from the University of Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

She worked in Teaching, Banking and as a Sports Administrator in the State Civil-Service. She was First Lady of Bayelsa State.



However, 17 other civil servants were also appointed by the State Governor, Hon. Seriake Dickson as permanent secretaries.

Kobojunkie: A Permanent secretary is a senior level civil Servant. This woman is

a) not a civil servant . . . she left the service well over 12 years ago and it is not like some club(even clubs require that you start over from point A if you have been away for that long)

b) not senior level.

any more questions?

Kobojunkie: I see . . . . so your grouse with this is that YOU feel there was a hidden part to this that you have no clue of, and instead of investigating that, you would rather conclude that comparing a PHD with international Honors to a woman who has NO QUALIFICATIONS whatsoever given that she has been out of the civil service for the last 12 years, makes more sense?? Really

Kobojunkie: I see . . . . so your grouse with this is that YOU feel there was a hidden part to this that you have no clue of, and instead of investigating that, you would rather conclude that comparing a PHD with international Honors to a woman who has NO QUALIFICATIONS whatsoever given that she has been out of the civil service for the last 12 years, makes more sense?? Really

Kobojunkie: No she is not qualified. And if you have a problem with the MImiko situation, voice it but Do not try to justify the one by posting the Other. It makes you seem an slowpoke trying to do that.

Kobojunkie: @FSU, your post above tells us that he was the MOST QUALIFIED for the post at the time, in all of the candidates. Also, if you read the comments that followed the report you pulled People condemned it then.

[/size] Is that your goal? Is that your point?

https://png-5.findicons.com/files//icons/1039/manto/128/despise.png

Again, forgive me but I find it a brain-dead act to compare a Nigerian with these credentials

with a Nigerian whose resume says She has been a full-time wife for the last 12 years. That is absurd.

pcicero: @FSU

Unlike you, I will not sweat so hard to justify why Mimiko's brother was appointed as the VC.
In the same manner that you have unearthed this, could you bring out Patience Jonathan's profile for all to see?

Kobojunkie: I think you should first learn to read before telling others to go get full details.

In 2006, the brother was the VC? Then get your facts right - Femi Mimiko became Ag. Vice Chancellor in 2005 when his brother was in charge of appointments in the government of Ondo State. Yes, Segun Mimiko was then the Secretary to the Ondo State government and ratified his brother's appointment as Ag. Vice Chancellor even though his professorship was less than 2 years old as at that time. even from your argument that Agagu government made him Ag. VC (since Segun Mimiko as Secretary to Government needed Agagu's approval all the same) faulted the earlier submission that Agagu prevented him from becoming VC (when you all concur that his government made him Ag. VC). SImple fact here irrespective of the spin or the numbers of internet rats paid to re-write history is that nepotism is at work. More importantly, who set up the committee that assessed Prof. Femi Mimiko and concluded that he was the best?

Well facts show that Prof. Femi Mimiko in fact selected the committee members for his brother's endorsement and that the committee members were regular visitors to his house before, during and after the selection exercise - so why won't he come 'top' in the selection exercise?

Lastly, it is shameful how Nigerians can take corrupt arguments to the next level - for instance, in a free and fair selection process devoid of any 'blood brother' factor, can any one of you swear by Ayelala that if Prof. Femi Mimiko contest with other qualified Nigerians or even just indigenes of Ondo State who are equally qualified, he would still come out number one? I am sure none of you will swear to Ayelala on this. So, let us shut up - enough of spin on what is bad, please.

Kobojunkie: Here is a question for you @FSU. What is wrong with the appointment and why did you feel the need to post it here on this thread? I ask so I can better understand why

a) you would feel to post this here
b) what similarities you see in the above to the appointment of Patience Jonathan as Perm. Secretary

In 2006, the brother was the VC? Then get your facts right - Femi Mimiko became Ag. Vice Chancellor in 2005 when his brother was in charge of appointments in the government of Ondo State.

pcicero: I have always known you to be a crass idi.ot. But now, your idiocy knows no bound. Did you also read that he was the top candidate for the job as far back as 2006? Did you read that he was also an acting VC? Did you read his citations?
