Why Didn't Any President Appoint Yoruba As IGP Since 2007? by Donaldoni(op):
Since 2007, no president has found Yoruba worthy of being COAS, IGP, CG Custom, CG Immigration, DG DSS, EFCC Chairman etc etc

I am not happy with Tinubu's lopsided appointments

But I believe he's up to something

Everybody needs to agree that Yorubas have been unfairly treated since 2007.

We supported GEJ, he shut us out.

We supported Buhari, he gave us crumbs.

I’m Yoruba but what is the benefit of all those positions to our tribehuh This thing is just like supporting a football club you gain nothing tangible while the players get paid millions. 🥱

The last yoruba IGP Tafa balogun stole, the current one is stealing by awarding contracts to his side chick. What has the average yoruba benefited ?

See them with their guilty conscience....now trying to 'justify' or 'rationalise' the nepotistic and tribalistic actions of Tinubu! Assuming, without conceding, that the Yoruba have been 'unfairly treated' since 2007, is it the Igbo that cheated una!? You're now trying to rope in a people that haven't produced Prime-Minister, President or Head of State since 1966!

tttoiiigggiiiip says GEJ shut them out whereas during GEJ,s tenure,their own tinubu and bisi akande made sure the yoruba woman set aside to become HORs speaker was defeated by tambuwal, a northerner.
During buhari's time,the same over Sabi ronus made sure Bukola Saraki lost and was defeated and replaced by Ahmed lawan,a northerner as a whole senate President!
Today Adeshina has been doing exploits as ADB president,this is someone who was GEJ's agric minister. And they say he shut yorubas out!
May God deliver you.

The fear of Yoruba exit is the beginning of wisdom for them.. our security is in complete jeopardy because of the nepotism in favor of North by past Presidents. Incompetence, sabotage etc. became the order of the day.

Instead of the oppressed ones down South to be rejoicing that Yorubas have taken over, they are busy exhibiting hate, envy and jealousy for better by far Yorubas.
Re: Why Didn't Any President Appoint Yoruba As IGP Since 2007? by laiperi: 8:41pm On Nov 03, 2024
Since Independence in 1960 the fact remains that Yoruba languished in Opposition with stubborn Awo who refused to listen to Akintola: Igbo worked and formed Alliance with the North they always condemn; as hypocrites.

The split between Awo and Akintola was pointing out the hypocrisy of Igbo whose leadership and elites gained from Herbert Macauiey. Yet, they have never returned any kindness but hate and some wishful rights to entitlement in Yoruba land.

As long as Yoruba remain out in the cold, fine.

People who dominated Jonathan's (a Biafran) Cabinet, are complaining about Tinubu for working with the North or appointing Yoruba.

They love anther detribalized Obasanjo, something you have and will never get out of them. Except pay back with hate and sense of entitlement.

Then why is everyone making a fuss about the current appointmentshuh

The truth is that it's a big deal.

Also, Tafa Balogun was not the last Yoruba IG. Sunday Ehindero was. Come on!

VP and Speaker are no big deal.

The presidency is.

Appointments matter and we've always gotten the short end of the stick when we are out of power.

Between 2011 and 2015, we were nowhere in the order of precedence.

Now Igbos displayed and continue to display the highest level of hate for Tinubu

Can he trust them?

They wished him death.

They called for military intervention immediately after the election and still do etc etc

Let me tell you, the core north would rather have Yorubas take all the southern slots than Igbos have more.

But then Tinubu can still do better to all.

No Yoruba man has been appointed INEC Chairman since 1998 when Abdulsalami Abubakar established INEC. This is the right time for a Yoruba man to head INEC. This marginalization of Yorubas from and in INEC must end. Next INEC Chairman to be appointed by JAGABAN is a Yoruba man. Anybody wey wan die, make e die.

The OP’s question is very simple and straightforward. Since 2007, why has no president found any Yoruba person worthy for appointment as IGP, CG Customs, CG Immigration, DG DSS and COAS and INEC Chairman? Just answer and leave unnecessary stories.

You can not use appointment of security personnels to judge Mr. President's so -called 'lopsidedness '
Security is very complex,you need people you can trust.Why do you think ex-president Buhari brought back retired col.Ali as CG ,cistoms ?

now that we have presidency. Are the majority of Yorubas benefiting? Meanwhile people like seyi, chagoury, and other close allies are getting contracts. Didn’t we see Yorubas queuing for bread recently 😂. Even the North what did they benefit under Buhari with all the appointments.

We too mumu for this country

It’s either you’re not Yoruba or you’re naive. Go to all those Federal agencies now headed by Yorubas and ask the Yorubas there how they are fairing. If you understand the kind of advantage you have when someone from your ethnic group is heading a federal agency where you work, you won’t come here and be yarning dust.

Before Tinubu, almost everyone in Tin can and Apapa command of Nigeria Customs from those at the gate to the Command Controller were Hausas. In fact, you hardly get a Yoruba speaker in those commands located at the heart of Lagos. Today, things have changed.

See, no be everything be Cho Cho Cho. If you don’t understand, ask questions. Nigeria is fvcking divided. You will be oppressed to death if you don’t have someone you can relate with in position no matter how good you are.
