Funny that I never heard the voice of the advocate for truth and equity Mahdi Shehu when their own retired more than a dozen senior officers to appoint one of their own as the head of Army . What's wrong Mr shehu ? Tinubu is neootistic for re-jiggling a 68% to 32% lopsided federal appointments and posting in favour of the largely unqualified northern personnel to a 46 % - 40% - 24% North wesr East respectively ? So those times it was 70% core appointments favouring the North against the other major tribes , that was Equity , abi ? Wow .

Let;s be honest, what has the North done to deserve such a high quota?

They don't go to school, but feel entitle to lots of government jobs. If merit was the standard, they'd be at the very bottom.

I am from Ondo state, and when I sat for my Poly JAMB, I was advised not to apply for Yabatech because I was from Ondo. Then, Ondo state had the highest cutoff mark. Interestingly, I passed but eventually went to UNILAG as I was on the supplementary list.

I later found out that a classmate of mine in UNILAG from Enugu who scored less me was on the first list. Life sucks.

Good thing this complaint is not coming from an Igbo person so that Yorubas won’t insult Igbo even in the face of glaring truth.

Tinubu and the Lagos State Government have displayed the highest levels of nepotism and bigotry ever openly showed.

Lagos under these heartless people have become the height of a growing urban displacement, where government approves land surveys and building permits only to turn around and have the buildings of 90% residents of Igbo extraction demolished with no compensation, compassion or iota of sympathy in a country they are citizens of. This Governor will be remembered for his smiling wickedness!

It will only get worse. Tinubu will be more nepotistic and racist with his decisions favouring his Yoruba tribe more and more.

He is confident of victory at the polls because votes will not count as voted!
Tinubu is not just counting on votes. He also wants his works to speak for him.

I suspect that he is why went on a borrowing spree. The Calabar Highway project if completed on time will be a game changer.

I travelled recently and found out that a lot of infrastructure work is going on all over the country. This may win him lots of votes. It did for Buhari.

He has tamed the Niger Delta to an extent, and I suspect he may also be having some success with the bandits. I suspect they are being pushed out from where they were formerly based and fleeing to new areas such as Kwara state .

really? Did u just compare a loosely organized political movement to an agency of govt which is funded with public funds? I am almost tempted to call u a fool...
You can call me what you want, loosely organized ó, tightly organised o, let's see the list of state coordinators and then determine what we can deduce from there.

Leave story, how is the leader of National assembly his business? How many Yoruba are in his cabinet? Which major minister Yoruba hold?

peleson1:
You lie

I'm from the South South ,niger Delta .

Gej was a nationalist as a president, even presented a Yoruba woman for speaker hor but Tinubu and co worker against it.

Gej has never been a hypocrite or tribslist .

But customs also handles land borders and we have more than enough in the northern regions. So, they are entitled to their requests.
The customs command of the SW amd SS contribute over 90% of earning of the Nigerian customs.If the govt recruit more Southerners especially SW followed by SS the recruitment is in order.We cant continue slaving for Nigeria without getting what we deserve as the tribe contributing the largest share to the Nigerian treasury.

So who is going to stop? We should just stop All this nonsense , you did it, you started it rubbish.
Two wrongs does not make a write.

We voted you in mass to correct all the abnomalcies and do the right thing, better the life of all Nigeria.
You are the president of Nigeria not the president of south west or North East.
Let's break, let Biafra leave, let the SW go, the North can leave, Nigeria is never meant to be a country and as long as it is, this and many other abnormalies will be experienced.

And Buhari failed woefully

so you're saying Tinubu must fall too

that's how APc is built

on tribalism and nepotism
Whats my own if he fails? What's the impact of all these discussions? Buhari set a very bad antecedent which a party member is building on, wait first till an Igbo man who is an opposition get there and see a Nationwide uproar by the time he start his nepotistic move.

Nigeria is a country and not a nation, too many ethnics, tribes and cultures, the amalgamation was made to exploit, explore and not to develop.

List the ministerial appointments that you consider top and why, so we can see if Yorubas got any of them.

We are not kindergarten children here. Jonathan government favours his Niger Delta mostly and the SE. Yoruba didn't see anything from his government and that is the reason he was booted out.
This is a fabricated lie of non sequitur. Jonathan Government favoured Yorubas even more than south South. Do you know even PMB gave south south more important appointments than GEJ? Fact check with Google.

Yes OBJ and GEJ are the only detribalised living leaders in Nigeria. We all know what the North will do next and the cycle will continue until there's no Nigeria again....only ethnic cocoons.

May Rwanda not happen to us

Abi ó, Peter Obi will obviously win the next elections, let him pack Customs and other parastatals with Ndigbo from Agulu, no one must say pim.

By the way, the Presidency has nothing to do with shortlisted Customs cadets, you will need to find another stick to beat him with.

Also, bikonu can you list all the state coordinators of the Obidient Movement please, we wan check sumtin.
What you are saying has no relatedness to the topic. You are driving to a wall. Obidients is a pressure group. Tinubu is the elected president. What's the comparison in their modus operandi ?

We all had a brain for a reason

We all do have a brain, so why has someone, a Obidient, tried to link President Tinubu to Customs cadet numbers.

Plus you are being cute, we both know the state coordinators list will tell us if truly, Obidients that are trying to blame President Tinubu for these skewed cadet numbers actually are practising what they preach.

That is why he is SW president and never southern president.
The SS ,SE and north in coalition will make sure we defend our votes by all means necessary
Let me see the 2.5 million vote can make him president again. Good the north has rejected him

Let's revisit aviation recruitment exercise under Jonathan if we won't see the same pattern. The two regions that benefited from the nepotism were busy here defending Jonathan, I'm sure they too are crying now.


Jonathan? Take it back!
Jonathan launched one empowerment scheme for graduates back in 2011 when I was nysc, the number of beneficiaries from Bayelsa state alone was greater than the total number of beneficiaries from all the 6 states in the SW
Hear yourself please

Comparing empowerment schemes with recruitment into juicy federal career jobs like Customs and Immigration.
Empowerment schemes are controlled by minister at the highest and SAs, not president of even Governors at state level.
This bigotry will continue...and like the man said, it will definitely come around. I know who cries the loudest because even with this nepotism they are still many crying in the streets of Lagos for food

Let nobody be forming victim as if Buhari didn't do his own. That is why zoning is important so that at least there will be balance of nepotism. No politician is truly a saint in that regards, so zoning is important to allow a 'I chop today, you chop tomorrow' balance. I have already accepted Nigeria cannot be saved so no need to mince words.
So zoning is for only northern Muslims and southern Yorubas? What about the southern east? What about the middle belt and even the south south that owns the oil?

I am old enough to be your senior brother. GEJ didn't give Yoruba good appointment and this is the reason Yoruba leaders went to meet him. Below are the links to the news and this is the reason he didn't get the support he once get in the Yorubaland.

When you are barely 50years

Be playing there.


These are usually Yoruba propaganda .

Yorubas were duely represented in Gej government
Re: Customs Recruitment: Tinubu now the Emeritus Professor Of Nepotism - Mahdi Shehu by oldguyman: 4:21pm On Oct 16, 2025
You are yet to name the cabinets Yoruba occupied during GEJ era... I bring a link to back up my fact you are trying to change the goal post. Even GEJ government didn't denied the allegation. Mention 5 big appointment Yoruba got under GEJ.
