PMB is wrong to have changed Obi. He should have just allowed him to stay on even if there was an error. I hope the president doesn't self destruct.
So buhari should allow an error to vester just because it involves an Ibo man abi.

If it had been an ibo man that is treated the way the hausa man was treated, i am sure by now all hell will have let loose, so lets stop been cynical and always say the truth even if it will affect us, remember what goes around comes around.

God bless Nigeria.

So because of ethnicity we should allow a junior officer to rule over his senior. what happen to doing the right thing allways.

Note, Buhari is not here to pacify any ethnic group by doing what is wrong. My Igbo brothers should wait until we have considerable appointments before they start shouting marginalization, So far most appointments are still fallowing the same pattern of the most senior officer to take over, which i think is fear enough.
please study the INEC chairperson appointment and also the acoountant general appointment then you can come here and behave like a Zombie.

First thing first, raise your hand high, higher, now give yourself a big knock on the head

The report by sahara reporters is what is known as ' arm chair journalism'. It is a lazy way of reportage. To balance it up, they could have found out
1. who is actually the most senior amongst the two
2. government position on why they decided to give jauro as acting DG

I think you need to analyse the INEC chairperson also since Jega handed over to the most senior officer but PMB rescinded it.

There is no way you can wash tribal bigotry away from DAFTUS
Did the INEC chairperson lack the merit for the appointment? PMB exercised his discretion in choosing between two National commisioners whose tenures were expiring in a matter of months.

I'm using your yardstick of seniority in appointment, DAFTUS erred in INEC and AGF appoiintment and your bigoted soul doesn't see anything bad in it.

DAFTUS should know that power is temporal

I understand where you are coming from, I also have my strong reservations. What I have noticed is that PMB is not a crowd pleaser, but a man that sticks to principle regardless of whose ox is gored. While that might not be ideal in a complex nation like Nigeria, what cannot be argued is that Nigerians have to learn to be disciplined enough to embrace diversity and end the habit of examining everything through ethnic lens if we are to develop.

The point I am trying to make is that if PMB applies the same principle of merit that threw up Jauro, to firing him once he fails, then Nigerians will quickly channel their energies from their tribal antagonism to exploiting the opportunities presented by an optimally functioning agency.

Yes it was not ideal, but it was not wrong either.
Easy for you to say but let's reverse the scenario and pretend it was GEJ appointing only SS/SEterners, would your explanation suffice for you thenhuh? Swear it on your immortal soul, would it? undecided

Sorry but managing Nigeria requires better judgement. I don't see the error in the appointment of Obi because for him to have been handed over to, he must have been deemed senior to Jaulo long before now. There are certain "errors" that tie your hands from correcting them.
I hope the president finds wisdom in handling similar issues in the future.

You play this game so well, keeping this facade going. You play the part of a sympathetic northerner who is out for the northern agenda. But in reality from your typo its obvious you are probably an easterner or a southern gun for hire

I hope so too, I also hope he does not compromise on principle and merit in that pursuit.

PMB needs to always take cognisance of the volatility of the country especially on issues like this. Jauro should have been retired from civil service if truely he is the most senior instead of reversing Obi's appointment.
Many accuse this government of Northernisation, unfortunately PMB is giving many the reason to continue wailing about it.

Somebody should please call Baba to order.

I expected you to pick on that line, hence I put the quotation mark in the error. A way of saying, there wasn't necessarily any error.

Then I will absolutely stand corrected if the events of the coming days reveal that Obi was actually senior to Jauro.

That would be my first red flag against PMB and I will not shy away from admitting my mistake on this issue.

Some people believe that the president spends all his time in micromanaging appointments such as this one and other menial duties - how ignorant!

Let me also point out that the President does not have time to be looking up who the most senior person to fill an "acting" DG position is. The permanent DG is yet to be nominated. You people need to relax and take a deep breadth.

In the case of INEC, it was widely reported that amongst the INEC commissioners, Amina Zakari is the most senior. so there is nothing wrong with her appointment as Acting Chairman.

The Northerners are leaches. It is very sad but all will end very soon. Buhari and all the Northern paedophile will soon expire

As it is, Jauro is the most qualified for the position, but the former DG bypassed him and handed over to a fellow Southerner. That truely explains who the true Leaches are.

I feel sorry for how miserable your life would be having BUHARI as your president for the next four years.
