And that is most unfortunate, esp for one that is not only one of d most Performing Mins in d current cabinet but perhaps one that hv done d most work in d Aviation Sector in Naija's history. How cud she have allowed herself to be messed up like this? What the ffuck is reali wrong with Nigerian Politicians How does she 'handle' this now...... If She leaves office today on account of this sillly move, I wud 'mourn' her; but then, she shld blame herself for bringing such on herself

addictiv: some one drives a rolls royce past a group of bystanders who cant even afford the side mirror of the car and they all start arguing if the driver is the owner and the tribe he comes from.........someone pastes a picture of a mansion on NL and they start arguing if the owner (who most of them have never heard about) is from igbo or not............whats the similarity btw these two set of people.......they re a bunch of idle ,broke,onlookers......

T8ksy: But why are you ibos so hell bent in owning other people's land?

This was what the sardunna and akintola talked to their own people about and for this, you ibos had them snuffed out.

So they weren't wrong then, were they?

oh well, i wish you guys all the luck in the world in your objective but just don't cry tribalism, jealousy, hatred ati bebelo when the true

owners of the land decides to fight back with whatever they have in their armoury.

No one wants to be turned into a tenant in his ancestral land, lest of all you ibos.

Do unto others........................................

You guys are lucky in the sense that no one (in nigeria) wants to own your erosion -ravaged, landlocked and kid/adultnapping region.

Sincere 9gerian: By Muhammad Bello

Unimpressed with his visibility and a contained influence within the newly-formed All Progressives Congress (APC), many of the avid supporters of the former Head of State, Gen. Muhammad Buhari, have expressed their concern over what they described as the sidelining of their leader.

Buhari was the leader of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), which joined other political parties to form the APC.

The anxiety among his supporters is already generating uneasy calm in the former army General’s camp.

Part of their complaints is about the leadership arrangement in the interim National Working Committee (NWC) of the party.

The grouse of the erstwhile presidential candidate of the CPC in 2011 was premised on his firm grip on the defunct CPC, which he had not been able to get since the merger to form the APC.

A source close to Buhari told THISDAY that before the birth of APC,the CPC was like a military institution run by Buhari and his lieutenants. According to the source, Buhari and his men went into the current alliance with APC with that mind-set thinking that they would have a fair control of the party structure.

But this was not to be as elements of the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), which came into the merger with a lot of political clout and goodwill cornered most of the key political positions in the protem NWC of the new APC.

"The CPC before the merger was a regimented party run by Buhari and his close associates alone. Much of the decisions of the party were taken by him and executed by his lieutenants. What he wanted was what was done.

"The pro-Buhari elements in the CPC went into the APC arrangement with the conviction and expectation that they would lead the group. But ACN is stronger, so it took over the mantle of leadership of the party," he explained.

Of the 35 NWC positions available when the merger took off, ACN clinched three of the most strategic- National Chairman, National Legal Adviser and National Publicity Secretary. The other two posts – that of National Secretary and National Financial Secretary, went to the All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP).

Of the four parties in the merger, ACN alone has six governors, 15 senators and a widespread presence in all the six geo-political zones.

The CPC had only one governor and a swathe of followership in many states of the north.

These intimidating profile of the ACN dashed Buhari's hope of wielding as much influence in the party as he did with the CPC.

"However, if Buhari, who is highly revered by former Lagos State Governor, Bola Tinubu does not emerge as the party's presidential candidate, intra-party conflict is imminent if another candidate emerges," another source explained.

He said the Buhari group were skeptical about Yoruba politics because "they are capable of concealing their real intention and springing surprise," especially in the choice of who flies the party's flag.

Noting that Tinubu had refused to relinquish total control of the party structure to Buhari, the source said Buhari was also difficult to understand.

"He has a problem. His associates have been purged and replaced by another set. There is a lot of problem. But there is consolation in the fact that he still commands respect and followership among the masses in the north," the source said.

Attempts to get Buhari's reaction proved abortive as he was said to be out of the country. There was no response when our correspondent called his Press Secretary, Mallam Ya'u Darazo.
