TINUBUS DISREGARD FOR FEDERAL CHARACTER AND AN INCLUSIVE GOVERNMENT IS WORRISOME !!!!!!!!!!
AT THIS RATE NIGERIA WOULD EITHER BE YORUBANIZED OR WOULD ULTIMATELY BE TORN TO PIECES.

Government of the Yoruba by the Yoruba and for the Yoruba.

Make una enjoy!
ese sir awa niyen o awalokan. When it’s your time enjoy yourself, we were sidelined during GEJ administration we use to have ministers for state or second ministers only Adeshina was the first minister others are second minister. So we believe in competence not tribal

NTA is a very interesting station people don't know,after arise Na nta in terms of programming.

The drawback is that the station is controlled, they are limited in programs they can feature.

Also the sound n visual is old.

Then presenters n news casters are old ,more youngies are needed.

The station needs to break out of trying to suit the NORTH

Good one, maybe the station will regain sanity that those northern governments have made a luxury in the place.

We haven't had a good and proactive DG there since the days of Tony Iredia.
how was tony iredia good and proactive?

Merit speaks for the appointed person. That he is Yoruba should not disqualify him. His appointment is in the best interest of Nigeria given his professional pedigree.

We must be sincere about this. If folks accept merit speaks for the appointed fellow but say it is yet another evidence of nepotism by the President and object to his appointment on that supposed ground then the issue of when a Yoruba man last occupied the office becomes relevant. I hope you get my drift!

My answer is certainly a “No”! I have stated the reason for pointing out that the post has not been occupied by a Yoruba person in a very longtime.
His appointment is clearly good for Nigeria considering his professional pedigree.

All this shake ups going on up and down. I don't think Tinubu is aware of anything, i believe all this changes are being done by his close guys etc especially that Former governor of Lagos State Fashola, and his media aids they are the people doing all this shake ups removing other tribes and replacing them with Yorubas.
