I believe Fashola to be a man of repute, so, if he can not handle the herculean task given to him by PMB, he should say so and let PMB look for another...

Truthfully speaking, I believe its a mistake to merge the ministry of works and power together, both ministry are very sensitive. I look forward and hope that PMB and Fashola will allay our doubts by showing he can handle what is given him.
Another person who understands what I'm saying.


Very sensitive ministries that directly affect the live of every Nigerian and needs independent attention.

When those ministries were seperate with separate ministers, did we get the desired results?

If Fashola could perform as a h governor of Lagos with all those ministries under him, let's just take it that he has a mini state in the new FEC. With the right permanent secretaries and advisers, he will do just fine.
Nobody is looking down on Fashola. Power alone is enough for him to win the people's heart the more if he can successfully fix all the mess we have been witnessing.

You say LAgos state? Did he fix power issue in 3000 square kilometres Lagos with just around 20m people?

Power isn't like aviation or agriculture that affects just a percentage of the country, he will be dealing with 170m people and that is enough already, but why adding another burden?

Op seems not to understand that pmb wants to reduce government spending. If I were pmb I won't have more than 12 ministries. Many of these so called ministries are redundant. With these mergers now few people will be doing work not many people on few work then you now have 'ghost workers'.
You can merge ministry of Works and Housing with anything but not Power. Unless you guys have decided to downplay the dire condition of the Power Sector which needs and independent attention and reconstruction.

Merging ministries itself is a good economic policy for our country. It's no mistake, all ministries are important but some requires urgent attention. When ministries were not merge under Pdp leadership, we didn't get and solid outcome which would manifest in the lives of the citizens hence, the need to change pattern and try something new.
During the last administration, so many inconsequential ministries were created and this projected a wide canal through which our money will be passing to unkown destinations and due to the ''matureness of cluelessless'' of our last president that piloted the affairs of our nation, he gave way for many thieves to come and practice thiefdom with our financial resources hence, Buhari sees the need to merge some ministries. This will not only beat down duplicity and duplication of government functions, it will also give us enough ground to be able to save money, knock out superflous spending and reduce cost of governance. Why do we need minister of aviation when we have minister of transportation, these are part of political and economic blunder committed by pdp.
I agree with you to an extent, but the bolded isn't an appropriate example. power should be an independent ministry in Nigeria until we witness a quantum leap in the sector.

Fash is the best person for the work bro even before now those are the offices most Nigerians has being clamoring he gets so what's your problem?
There is no big deal with clamouring for Fashola to get either of those offices, but handling both of them, surely, will have a lot of distractions which can directly slow down the change needed in those ministries.

Please, No hard feelings for Fashola.
Politics › Buhari's Big Ministerial Appointment Mistake by Lordave(op):
With the history of poor, erratic and unsteady power supply associated with past governments, even Maitama residents would be anticipating the APC trademark 'Change' to sweep across the ministry of power and somehow or anyhow solve the problem of nonexistent power supply in most parts of the country.
Alas, Buhari, today decided to name former Lagos State governor, Mr Raji Babatunde Fashola as the minister of merged former Ministries of Power, Works and Housing.
From a progressive perspective every sensible Nigerian would agree that this is a very big mistake from our president. The ministry of Work and Housing alone is a deserving ministry for a person of Fashola's calibre and administrative prowess to pilot, likewise Power. Heading the Ministry of Works and Housing in Nigeria is very cumbersome and almost equivalent to the numerous tasks he faced as the Governor of Lagos State were he had commissioners who were accountable to him, let alone Power being added to this workload of a Portfolio.
I'm tempted to ask, did Buhari seek advice and make proper consultation before handing these merged portfolio to Mr Fashola? If he did, what were his findings? Which people supported his merging of these ministries?(they should be named so we can know those who indirectly oppose our progress)
In a nutshell, it was unexpected, unprogressive, nonsensical and most especially, unacceptable merging of this work laden ministries and handing it over to one man considering the immediate change Nigerians are expecting in the power sector. Buhari should separate this ministries and make Mr Fashola a minister to one of them.

It would be inevitable hearing APC faithfuls say, "after all it is merged ministry, and as such presents a herculean task to the government in bringing a reasonable level of change to what we had in the previous administrations who are responsible for the majority of ruins in the ministries.

WE DO NOT WANT EXCUSES!

Amaechi has no enticing University degree, Transportation is among the least complicated portfolios in our ministries. When he was shouting on top his voice against GEJ he didn't know Booohari was admiring his Aba Road by Rumukurisi conductor skills.

Ignorance can be pardon to a good extent, it is arrogance which you displayed here is what is unpardonable. The sad thing is your arrogance is all rolled up with toxic ignorance.

Did Alaska n Texas not fight to stop exploration of crude in their respective states n did the federal not have it way when the push came to shove ?

Was their land not polluted only to be cleaned up. Is that not the objective of the UNEP report Buhari signed to clean up Ogoni after Jonathan failed to do a thing about it ?

Your arrogant display of ignorance is so nauseating you claim the USA is an immigrant country forgetting the minority red Indians that were indigenous to the land. Pls can you tell me how many Indians have been elected president of the USA in over how many years & are they agitating ?

If nobody is considered minority in the USA what would you call the Indians n African Americans ? Mr it's obvious you deride joy battling in ignorance. Arrogance is not common sense, please do not be mistaken. That is all you just displayed.
Look at how you're drawing examples from America to justify injustice. The same America that you term anyone who dares support them slave and having slave mentality.

Moreover, we talking about ethnic groups here and not Races so I don't know what Indians and African Americans are doing here.

America is migrant nation.

I thought democracy is the rule of the people. The people in this case being the majority or do the Igbos want to turn the meaning on its head with a lame argument.

Alaska n Texas should have been the only states producing the USA president with your minority feeding the majority theory you propounded. I doubt if any of those states ever produced the USA president till date.

Igbo boy please stop sounding ridiculous, this argument is foolish to say the least.
[b]You're mischievous!

When I said a different country is better than Nigeria I didn't mean only Igbos, other ethnic groups that feels marginalised are better off in a country of their own than seeking to produce a Nigeria president.

Democracy is a rule of the majority of course, but with the interest of the minority.
Have Nigerians done anything satisfactory on the interest of those minorities their lands are being degraded?

Your Texas and Alaska example are utterly distorted and in apt. Is Nigeria a true federal state? Texas and Alaska controls more than 65% of their resources Unlike Nigeria where states producing crude oil have no say after receiving just a paltry 13% derivation. Texas is responsible for what happens in Texas, their is little federal parasitic installations. Your comparison of USA, a migrant nation with Nigeria says a lot about your intelligence, nobody is being considered a minority in America politically, unlike Nigeria, any state can can produce a president. #nominoritystate

If the argument is foolish to you that means it's either you understood it in a foolish way or you lack common sense.

We are one of the three largest tribes in Nigeria and that is a fact so you cannot use Akwa Ibom and others as an example. Use the Yoruba of hausa/fulani then we can talk from there.
Do not tell me that shít, even though I knew you're going to say it!

Someone can't be responsible for almost 50% of your progress and you deny him his right just because you chose to call him minority.
It's an ignominious hypocrisy and a case of of unaddressed injustice and suppression that a minority is feeding a majority who has chosen to die rather than let that minority, for once, lead the majority they're feeding.
That shít you typed there, you shouldn't let sensible people read it if you still want your dignity preserved.

For there to be lasting peace there must be fairness, equity and justice.

Nigeria should stop marginalising the Igbos; the Igbos are too big to be marginalised.

It is our turn to produce the President after Buhari, it just cannot be any other way.


[size=16pt]#IgboPresidentAfterBuhari[/size]
This is where I do not agree with a whole lot of Igbos.

Igbos are not being marginalised! We're just affected by the political incorrectness hindering the colossal injustice called Nigeria. If you wail in this extent what do you expect those from Delta, Akwa Ibom and Rivers states to do for not having produced a president since 1960 despite producing about 45% of the country's main resources?

How will the Igbos producing a president benefit them?
The other regions that have being producing presidents, how did the presidents impact them positively?

You want us to produce a president we can't hold accountable cos he's impunity and being shielded by the Nigerian Constitution?

Have a rethink my friend, a country of own where we can choose to canonise an underperforming official or stone him out of office is a trillion times better than a 9 consecutive times Nigeria presidents of the Igbo extraction each serving their second terms.

You're not far from the truth despite how unpleasantly you presented it.

The predicaments of the inhabitants of the Middle Belt of Nigeria is a clear example and and a case study for those yet to understand the 'colossal injustice' called Nigeria. It's quite obvious, except to those bereft of common sense, that the Igbos provide, to an extent a kind of shield to some Southern minorities.

Still baffles me how some folks from those minority ethnic groups openly display their uncouth irrelevant self when addressing issues that affect the Igbos.
