It's all APC's style of governance. Pure marginalization of the minorities. PDP was more of a nationalist party. Every region well represented. If not because of GEJ and his weakling, APC wouldn't have smelt power.

Ebilokan also confirmed that he is a loser in governance. No argument for that.
Nawao, you are always good and spot on in digging weapons to Fire 🔥 back and nail the coffin ⚰️ of Apc and their 40 thieves in Abuja.... Haha 😆

All this guys are just trying to use reverse psychology to campaign for Tinubu just like Kwankwaso recently did which afterwards he said he will remain in NNPP but work for Tinubu.
Was ebilokan using reverse psychology to gaslight the Igbo people below?

Abi he and Sanwo Olu are using reverse psychology in changing Igbo street names!?

Maybe Oba Akiolu used reverse psychology to threaten Igbo people with genocide in 2015?

Where Are The Cows? Is Evans A Herdsman?'


When Funke Olakurin, daughter of Afenifere leader, Pa Reuben Fasoranti was murdered instead of Bola Tinubu to make sure that the perpetrators were brought to book, he ended up making fun of the death of the young lady by turning everything into tribalism by showing his hates for Igbos.


Tinubu has never spoken against the deadly activities of Fulani herdsmen across the country




Mrs Olakunrin died of gunshot wounds in July 2019 after her vehicle was attacked by armed men, suspected to be marauding Fulani bandits whose violent activities had reached a frightening level across the southwest states.


Those arrested suspects include Lawal Mazaje, 40, from Felele area of Kogi State; Adamu Adamu, 50, from Jada area of Adamawa State; Mohammed Usman, 26, from Illela area of Sokoto State and Auwal Abubakar, 25, from Shinkafi area of Zamfara State....

However, the leader of the team, identified only as Tambaya, and three others are yet to be found.

Tambaya has been declared wanted by the police and he is said to be capable of communicating in Hausa, Fulfude and Pidgin English.

In the history of Nigeria, Tinubu's is the only government without an Igbo from number one to five highest positions in his government. The government flops.

North East and North West are the same Hausa-Fulani, so that's one tribe add their appointments add their appointments, it's more than Yoruba's own.

The geopolitical zoning only favours Hausa people cos they split their own region into 2 and the rest of Nigeria is sharing the rest 6.

When Buhari was the President it wasn't wrong but now it's wrong abi?

Buhari started the nepotism.

Northerners should stop complaining

Easterners should be the one to complain.
Buhari favors the north and Tinubu the Yorubas instead of the south as a whole.

Anyway, he will use Yoruba votes to win.

These northerner wailers are beginning to get on my nerves with their endless wailings

Everyday tulumbu this tulumbu that

Abi dem no dey eva taya with their wailings?!

When we warned them to vote wisely, what did they tell us?

Of course, they told us that Moslem Moslem ticket is a goal

They should just to keep their noise level low

Or even better still, they can come to class and join us where we are still learning the lessons that the Agbados are still teaching pitaobi and we obidients worldwide

After all, they are not the first nor the last to score an own goal in a soccer game

Nonsense angry

why is appointment and ethnicity the only things in their brain to discuss?

why dont they discuss about governance?

if not that they have empty skulls, they can point to a number of things that tinubu is not doing right that they can criticise instead of all this stale gist about appointment and ethnicity

Only a born, unrepentant liar would disagree this fact staring at us all in the face.


Nigeria have never had it this bad.


2015 till date remains the darkest years in the history of Nigeria. Ever since APC came to power, it has been sadness upon sadness for Nigeria.


Worst of it all, Tinubu has divided Nigerians so much that if we don't take caution now, worst version of Rwandan genocide might happen in Nigeria all because of Tinubu's divisive leadership style.


No other Nigerian sitting President used state money and resources to be sponsoring ethnic attack and bigotry like Bola Tinubu.


Imagine Bola Tinubu a sitting President has been funding Reno Omockery, Bayo Onanuga and co to be attacking Igbo people as a whole on daily basis just because Peter Obi contested for President in 2023, his citizen's right oh? And these people think all will be well with them and whatever they represent? Time will tell.


Let every Nigerian, especially Yorubas also note this that since Nigeria got independence in 1960, it is only under Bola Tinubu that no Igbo man or woman is occupying a single position among the top 6 political positions in Nigeria, namely:


President
Vice President
Senate President
Speaker of House of Reps
Chief Justice of Nigeria
Secretary to Federal Government
You dey dream when the North and SW dey spread them voting sotey Tinubu lost his ancestral state and adopted state while your so called igbo man and woman gave 95% of their votes to a dullard from Agulu? So you want to invest on one Agulu fraudster and reap the dividends from Asiwaju right? You never start wailing. Buhari told you guys that you can't give him 5% of total votes cast and expect the best appointment but rather than listen to him, you called him a dead man who was cloned and replaced by a body double from Sudan. Next election I advise you to do worse. Please don't give Agbotikuyo just 95% oh, give him over 100 then just wait for the best appointed from Asiwaju again and his "evil party APC"
Re: Buhari: Tinubu's appointments selectively favouring Yorubas - Yakassai by chaloskyx: 9:50pm On Jul 30, 2025
Im Igbo and i dont care about his appoint ments as long as he puts competent ppl there its when he puts their state of origin before their competence that there would be problem if hr likes let him put his gateman as minster of defence he should sha be competent

Almost all of Tinubu’s appointments in the last two months have gone to the north. Today, he appoints a DCG as CG and this born to rule power mongers have crept out to cry and blackmail the president again.

As in, do these guys think Nigeria belongs to them alone? All these positions went to the north for 8 years under Buhari and nobody complained. Just two years and they are behaving like have been out of power for 50 years. Smh.
Seunmsg, can you win elections without the so-called "born-to-rule power mongers"? The other South that you're counting on, you have also began to show them your tribalistic side by renaming all streets bearing their names. Where will Tinubu's votes come from? I expected you to argue that the latest appointee is a Northerner from the Northcentral state of Kogi. It's a pity that even his Northcentral appointments go solely to the Yoruba-speaking parts of Kogi and Kwara, whereas there are hundreds of tribes in the Northcentral.

Anyways, Tanko Yakassai was an aide to the former Chairman of the APC, Ganduje. Tinubu ditched Ganduje for Kwankwaso in a treacherous and self-serving manner. Are you still kidding yourself that all is well within the APC?

Don't mind them. Shebi their northern military brothers created the geopolitical zones to cheat the south, since we don agree say Kwara and Kogi are North Central, why complaining again? 🤷🏽‍♂️

They split the real North into East and West, giving their own region 2 geopolitical zones so they can get double portion of other region's share... Despite all of this, the South has progressed more than them...

It's easy to just make an info graph and alloted numbers so as to suit one's narratives, Buhari made 64 appointments from the South West but you fail to list the posts that was held by the appointees.
