Is the GMD of NNPC a Muslim?
he purposely gave that to a South south person to deal ruthlessly with his own brothers just like he made Adesina his spokesperson on media to do the dirty job of breaking bad news to Nigerians and fighting with the perceived president's enemies. This is indeed a polluted change.

The funny part of all this senseless wailing is that it is the very same people who wished buhari death that are still wailing about his appointments.
his appointments in his house/company or in OUR COUNTRY? #Nightschool....

And you are not senselessly petty by thinking that people shouldn't vote their choice in a democracy?

Smh
kindly point out where I mentioned or implied that you shouldnt vote your choice?

[size=16pt] if i hear say buhari gives customs to a south-southerner or south-east! in fact! he will not even give customs to southwest - u can bet on that!

if only u knw how northers cherish that customs - customs is more dear to them than NNPC!

That figure head appointment given to that NNPC GMD, was actually given to him so as to counter any complain from any quarters when a norther is appointed to head customs!

my people are right for not expecting anything from Bubu - but the yorubas are in for a serious short change!

all am asking from Bubu is good governance, a new bridge across river Niger at Onitsha, brand new and ultra modern road linking enugu and ontisha as well as port harcourt and owerri - at least i earned it under my 5% ratio - i nearly lost my life campaigning for him so he really owes me these little request.
What you people do not realise is that with the fall in oil prices, there is not much money left for capital investments. The only way those projects you mentioned will be completed is if there is some sort of public-private partnership under which the private sector builds the port or road and is allowed to charge users to recoup investment.

I suspect the new Govt is not the sort to embark on such schemes so nothing is going to happen.

[size=13pt]I have said this time without number, I absolutely do not give a damn about the tribe of whoever buhari chooses to appoint. I have so many things I'm looking forward to from this government and having a person from my tribe being appointed into position is the last thing on my priority list. I am way too educated, enlightened and exposed to condescend to such petty level of reasoning by rejoicing because someone from my tribe was given an appointment.

For all I care, PMB can appoint his entire cabinet from Sudan or Chad, all I need is just a working system with a certain level of sanity.

....and yeah, anyone who isn't happy with Buhari should stop distracting us with unecessary wailings, you should either slam your heads against the nearest brickwall or you could dust your PVCs and wait patiently for 2019.[/size]

Another big "change" successfully executed.

This is the real "changi" Northerners were chanting during the campaign and Buhari is fulfilling his promise.

I don't know the "change" you people had in mind. GMB is implementing the one he had in mind. You wailers can keep wailing. It's already too late.

Sanusi Lamido, Junaid Mohammed, Ibrahim Coomasie and Co are the de facto script writers and Buhari's real political advisers.
Everything is going according to plan. More changes on the way. Emefiele, Paul Orbih, Lamorde, etc watch out.

NIMASA , NSCDC, AMCON, NIWA, NDDC, already in the bag.

Buhari got 1.9 million votes in Kano, 1.7 million votes in Katsina and 1.3 million votes in Kaduna while he got less than 200,000 votes in the whole of South-South plus South-East states. Now tell me, which region should get more appointments. You cannot work for UBA and go to GTBank to collect salary. Let South-South plus South-East states get their appointments from Goatluck Jonascam, he still goes about with several aides.

so change means doing something bad because you think others did same earlier?
By the way GEJ and OBJ were never tribalistic in their appointments.
GEJ was very tribalist in his appointment. He seriously marginalised the Yorubas. Obasanjo on the other hand had more Ibos (especially) and Northerners in his appointments than the Yorubas.

Why did you not mention the South West that made Buhari the president? The total votes of those northern states you stated would have amounted to NOTHING without the votes of the Yorubas. Now tell me, what is the South West getting in return? Abi there are no qualified people in that region?

presentley:
Adesina said the President also approved the reconstitution of the corporation’s management team as follows: Ahmed Lawan Kuru -Managing Director; and Kola Ayeye, Eberechukwu Uneze and Aminu Ismail as Executive Directors.

Until his appointment on Tuesday as Managing Director of AMCON, Kuru was the Group Managing Director of Enterprise Bank Limited.

The appointment of Kuru and the three new AMCON Executive Directors is with effect from August 18, 2015.

www.punchng.com/news/buhari-dissolves-amcons-management-team-appoints-new-md/
When Mustapha Chike Obi was to be made the MD of AMCON he was first nominated by president Goodluck Jonathan and he went through an elaborate screening process - including a final confirmation by the Senate before he became the substantive MD of AMCON..

President Buhari should realise that this is a DEMOCRACY and due process has to be followed to confirm the nominee's qualification, suitabilty and capacity to hold the position as MD of AMCON.

The Senate has a role to play and it must play it fully

I was one of the people who strongly believed that Buhari will not islamize Nigerians but will place northerners in all strategic position He did that with PTF in road construction .He is doing that successfully again.

South West has gotten the position of the Attack Dog in the person of Adeshina. The Attack Dog named you "Wailing Wailers". I hope he will last long with this trend. Nonetheless, the South West is still expecting some mouth watering appointments from BabaGoSlow the people's general. Note however, that all the votes that PMB got from South West is not up to 1.9 million abi na billion sef that he got from Kano alone, I don't know whether the dead too joined the voting in Kano, Kaduna and Katsina. I am glad that PMB rigged enough to nullify the Rivers, Delta and Akwa Ibom rigging by Goatluck.

You forgot to state how many votes South-west gave GMB in the last presidential elections. As you already know, the votes of the SW was quite insignificant to the total votes. The south west has sold the whole south to the north for a morsel of bread. I can assure you that there will be future implications, which you cannot see for now. No matter the alliance formed by a southern zone with the north, One thing you have to understand is that no zone in the south can produce a president of southern origin without the support of other southern zones. An Igbo man and someone from south-south will still rule this country again. Do not ever complain when the same treatment is meted out to your zone by then. A precedence has been set by Buhari. Future leaders will use it as reference, and will have enough facts to justify their actions.
