what happened to federal character?
All regions are supposed to be equally represented in government.

Did all regions give their votes equally?
How many votes una give Tinubu?

The highest Yoruba man in GEJ's administration was Adesina who was Minister of Agriculture.

There should be inclusiveness in governance.

In the meantime though, if only the ‘temporary’ appointees can render selfless service without bias to move the country in a positive direction for the benefit of all, then fine. But if they can’t perform, that becomes a big problem.

So you expect it to favour South East?

Obviously, South West is Tinubu’s stronghold, so expectedly his appointments may seem to favour the region, just like Buhari and GEJ did to their respective regions.

By and large, Tinubu’s appointment haven’t been that bias as mischief makers portray it. Even some muslims in S/W claimed he appointed mostly Christian’s. People just like to complain at the slightest of opportunity. ALL WE NEED IS GOOD GOVERNANCE.

Yoruba Elders Meet Jonathan To Complain About Marginalisation - Smh

Written by Leon Usigbe, Abuja
Friday, 26 August 2011

PRESIDENT Goodluck Jonathan met with a delegation of the Yoruba Council of Elders (YCE), led by Major-General Adeyinka Adebayo (retd), in the State House, on Thursday, as the leaders complained about being left out in the top six posts in the country.

The delegation also demanded for the dissolution of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), which they observed had been unable to fulfill the objectives of its establishment, while also asking for action of the deplorable roads in the South-West.

NIA was under Yoruba command. Rather, he embezzled over thirty million dollars with his wife. How then do you entrust command structure with a people who have the propensity to steal?

Are you now justifying Tinubu"s appointments steeped in ethnic and religious chauvinism? You are dead wrong if that is your cogitation.
He came to correct the wrongs steeped in wrong narratives. Though he was not popularly elected. He stole the presidency in active support of INEC and Buhari's presidency.
You are doing well

Your comments above suggests we are not ready to cohabit as a nation. If a segment of the society can't be president, according to your myopic reasoning, why are we wasting our time forming to be a nation? We rather go our separate ways. That's the right thing to do.

USSR unbundled their federalism and created about 16 states based on linguistic, religious and cultural affinity. We could replicate same here.

Even UK has four countries within the Union. England, Wales, Scotland and North Island. We go same way to ensure true fiscal federalism or unbundle the Union.

As a Yuroba man you gained nothing from this govt. Instead of demanding for a better government, you are spreading falsehood. In which paper did Igbos insult the west because they were crying for marginalization?
This Onwubiko of a person is looking for appointment because non of them have attract development to their region. Demand for a better government

Umuinyioku:
So,you're not aware he is Yorubanising every appointment to beat the standard set by Buhari in fulanising every sector of the economy?

In fairness, much kudos should go to Pa Adebanjo of Afenifere in voicing his opposition against Tinubu's supremacist ethno religious agenda. God bless him immensely!

Jonathan was fair in his appointments because the best hands were picked and same time mindful of our diversity and inclusiveness in appointments.

Are you aware that under Good luck Jonathan
The Senate ,House of Reps ,Judiciary, PDP, Police,Army,Customs,Immigration,DSS, Prison, National security adviser, Navy, NPA,NNPC,NDLEA,NAFDAC,CBN,,NIMASA,Ministers of Petroleum, Defence, Power, Secretary to the FG FinanceWorks,Transport,,Aviation,Attorney General all completely were not led by a Yoruba person


Are you awareWhat

Did you' complain that everything was going to the SS and SE

That the SE had the Army, Finance,Power Aviation Secretary to the FG and the SW. Was yawning

Did you complain then

Did you not concern yourself with mindfulness of diversity at the time when the aviation minister. Stella Oduah targeted and sacked all Yoruba directors.

You're a core Tinubu loyalist. So,no amount of sermonisation will convince you.

I give up engaging you further because of your narrowed interest and skewed political will.

But history will vindicate the just. The stolen presidency could be retrieved through popular Will of Nigerians.

Prominent SW men like Tunde Bakare and Soyinka formed SNG to rally for GEJ to be made president
GEJ won 5 SW states when he contested for resident in 2011

Was he fair to the SW? and when Yoruba leaders went to him you can see the report from this thread

Actually I am not a TInubu loyalist at allI. Not at all I never supported him or his wife before he became president and if I did support him I will never deny him.
So that is an empty lamentation try another one
The election is over and I am.happy he won BECAUSE he is Yoruba and I would rather he is there than Obi or Atiku .I wish everyone else is that honest and stop pretending that Obi can turn water to wine his Core support is from Iboes.he won the SE and SS
Tinubu won SW and NC
Atiku won NE and NW
Nothing has changed in Nigeria

I am.particularly happy Obi lost because he is Ibo and how Ibo people talk. The way they talked when Jonathan was in power and during the election
I came to realise they hate Tinubu because he is Yoruba and so for that reason I will support Tinubu against any Ibo man any day just like Ibos will support Obi against any Yoruba man

None of that has anything to do with the marginalization issue
Ibos were happy under Good luck Jonathan that the Yorubas were being marginalised and they were recognised so why the anger now?

Are Ijaws Yoruba? I really don't see any point or sense in your post so what if they were all Ijaw? Is that Not the same accusation against Tinubu?
What is your pont? MY POINT IS THEY WERE NOT YORUBA.so whatever they were does not matter as long as they are not Yoruba

but they were not all Ijaw

NGOZI IWEALA is not Ijaw
