Wow! Sehinde Arogbofa. Many don't know he was an author of many fiction literature books. I recall we used his book Scoundrels in Uniform as our Lit in English book in JSS 3 many decades back.
The General is Chief Sehinde Arogbofa's younger brother.

That is their stock-in-trade. Lies and propaganda. That's how they came into office.

Jonathan's private secretary was a Fulani man, his SA's were both Yoruba, Itsekiri. His close cabinet had Igbos. In fact the whole Nigeria was represented in Aso Rock.

Today Aso Rock looks like Lagos State Government
House and they are the same people that will call other Nigerians unpatriotic.
Why don't you find something else to say, you mean lagosian full a government that had Akpabio, Jibrin, Akume, Kalu, Abbas, Gbajabiamila all occupying the top 6 position because a Yoruba man is one of them?...

Why don't you say another thing, why hate people that don't send you?..

Jonathan's Chief of Staff was the former Edo State Deputy Governor, Mike Oghiadome. He brought in Gen Arogbofa to appease South Westerners in preparation for the 2015 election. Recal there was no Yoruba man or woman amongst top 6 important positions in the country. In addition the SW only had 1 full Minister (Akinwunmi Adesina), the rest were Minister for State.
This was not the reason Oghiadomhe was fired.
The former Deputy Governor of Edo State was involved in deep corruption that Jonathan had no choice. Kerosene subsidy fraud, rice waiver fraud, heavy fraud associated with the NNPC, to the tune of over $7bn.

Sanusi Lamido, then CBN Governor submitted a dossier to Jonathan, he could not believe it. The DSS reportedly did their own investigation and uncovered more. It was deep State corruption, GEJ had no choice esp because the APC had some information about it.

For real i was right all along. I didn't even know the state is that close to Niger delta.
I lived almost all my life in the south west and i just find something very different about them.
Very accommodating and jovial set of people, they'd never speak their language in a group of people with different tribe, very sound and cool people.
Liberal set of people. I am from the South South, but you see Enugu and Ondo State, they're the most accommodating States in their respective regions.

God bless them.

Same thing I wanted to say but these Tinubu supporters always try to make it look as if Jonathan appointed only Igbo people and making it look as if it was the reason they were supporting Jonathan, the way they always lie and try to twist history is very annoying....

May his soul rest in peace and condolence to the bereaved family
He wasn't the CSO to Jonathan
You people should just sending nonsense

Yeah you're right about both states.
I spent almost all my life in South west but i graduated from esut.
I vividly remember my first day /week in enugu, anytime i seem lost in the road anybody i ask for direction is very much open to help happily.

Tribalism is really messing up Nigeria so bad, then I do go to my guys who are yorubas house and I'd be treated like a king from the parents. Served with Amala and gbegiri that was how i feel in love with that delicacy i started going to mama put to eat it then 😁
Same thing when they come to my place my mom takes all of them as her children. That was when i got to know yoruba egusi soup and igbos are prepared differently. They almost started coming everyday and i speak yoruba tho not 100 percent fluent but i understand everything said in yoruba.
It's really sad Tribalism is ruining us down lately.

Just wish life can go back to the old days as it used to be.

Back then, Egbon Omotosho,(God rest his soul) go tell him wife make she come learn how to prepare Egusi soup from my mom jokingly, while my Dad go ask my mom to pick up a book and learn how to prepare local soap (Black soap) from them. grin


E nor go better for Tinubu and his tribalistic style of politics....

Before his emergence, the tribalism was not pronounce like this... Back then, it was Buhari's nepotism.... But immediately the cocaine lover shouted “Emilokan” it all went South.


God will punish him and any E-diot supporting his style of politics.

Nope Igbos were the best thing that happened to GEJ's government same as OBJ and Yarádua. Something Calamity Buhari and Disaster Tinubu never fathomed, any wonder they will continue to fail with their tribal government.

You lots keep repeating these lies that have been debunked. You can only fool the Gen Alpha's not us who witnessed Jonathan's government.

See link to get educated and stop the shenanigan, it's now outdated as your brother Tinubu and his friend Buhari did worst than any Government in power when it comes to tribal appointments.

What do you mean by 'top 6 important positions in the country'?

On your claim that the SW only had '1 full Minister' under Jonathan and the rest were Ministers of State, why are you guys such terrible liars? Why do you always think you can deceive and mislead all Nigerians with lies and propaganda?

The following are list of Minsters from SW under Jonathan:

Minister of Trade and Investment - Olusegun O. Aganga (Lagos)

Police Affairs - Caleb Olubolade (Ekiti)

Communication Technology - Mrs. Omobola Johnson (Ondo)

Foreign Affairs - Olugbenga Ashiru (Ogun)

You guys should stop defending Tinubu's one-sided, nepotistic appointments with lies about how previous governments started it. It makes you look stupid and devoid of conscience. Even Buhari didn't display the level of nepotism displayed by Tinubu.
