Since 1960, No President Has Appointed A Yoruba Man As IGP by Dotherightthing(op): 7:08pm On Feb 24
Since Nigeria's independence in 1960 only Obasanjo and Tinubu have found a Yoruba man worthy to be IG of police

Same goes for customs, immigration etc etc

See as you struggled to come up with one instance! I intentionally backdated it to 1960. Normally, I would have said since 2007.

The FACT is that since Obasanjo left office in 2007, NO president found a Yoruba man worthy to be IGP.

So don't blame Tinubu for sticking with a Yoruba as IG.

So don't blame Tinubu for sticking with a Yoruba as IG.
All this 'sense' you people think you have will be fully repaid. Don't worry. Continue to deceive yourselves that you are wise.
You will reap the explosive dividends of your 'wisdom' when tomorrow comes.

And woe betide any of you who claims to be h-intellectual, democrazy h-activist then speaking plenty English about inclusion and constitution.
