The Cable: Are Buhari Appointment Loopsided? by tunjion(op): 10:37am On Aug 20, 2015

Another appointment, another objection. Since President Muhammadu Buhari started making appointments after his inauguration, there have been complaints from several parts of Nigeria that he is not respecting the principle of federal character. The appointment of Ahmed Lawal Kuru to replace Mustafa Chike-Obi as the MD/CEO of the Asset Management Company of Nigeria (AMCON) on Tuesday has sent tongues wagging again.

Although most of the objections appear to be coming from the south-east and south-south, some voices from the south-west and north-central are also getting louder against what they view as heavily tilted appointments in favour of the core north, where the president hails from. They argue that in the interest of national unity and cohesion, Buhari should make a deliberate attempt to balance the appointments.

However, that is just one side of the argument. There are also commentators who insist that merit should come before federal character and Buhari should only be criticised if he is appointing people who are not qualified to hold those positions. Yet some argue that it is too early in the day to judge Buhari, as there are still hundreds of appointments to be made.

What do you think? Kindly drop us a vote and a line….

Same way Jona's appointments were lopsided.

If SS/SE get 15 to 20% of all appointments, it's fair enough. There are six geo political zones and the NW, NE, NC and SW should expect good representation even better than the SE and SS.

The appointments,were they based on merit or ethnic coloration?

Are they capable?

Can they deliver?

Do them come with any blemish record?

Answer these questions genuinely.Every other trash is irrelevant.

Appointment have to reflect a national character. This is not a Daura State.
