The North West supported this bill - very good for our National unity.

Time to go shopping for the President's assent.

0m0nnakoda:
You are a liar

What do you mean by saying he was given the award by "bankers themselves "

That is simply untrue.
The award was from an obscure magazine

Like similar risible awards in Nigeria it would not surprise me if money changed hands.

"Chosen unanimously"


By whom?.

You call The Banker - a publication of The Financial Times of London...an obscure magazine?

You are just filled with hatred and prejudice to the point of sounding mindlessly ignorant.

I rest my case.

Rubbish
His so called intelligence is self promotion
We heard more in the media about Sanusi in one month than we heard about Soludo or Emefiele in their entire tenure.
When you watch a football game and you notice the referee more than the players something is wrong.
CBN governor s around the world are known for reticence and obscurity not winning bogus Man of the year awards.
Why should a referee win man of the match award?
I have seen nothing to show Sanusi as more intelligent than average.
Is he as intelligent or knowledgeable as Ezekwesili?
He went to Kings College around the same time as Saraki and was not outstanding in anyway. He speaks English with a cultivated access but that is an issue of social class in Nigeria not intelligence. If you grew up in Ikoyi in the 70s you would sound like him even if you didn't attend university
There are millions of more intelligent Nigerians who cannot get a job because of background

You are grossly misinformed.

The award Sanusi won is WORLD CENTRAL BANK GOVERNOR OF THE YEAR awarded by bankers themselves and not man of the year, which rubbishes your accusation of self promotion and claim that central bankers are known for obscurity. Hogwash.

Excerpts: Editor of the magazine, Mr. Brian Caplen, noted in the 2011 January edition of The Banker, billed to be distributed at the World Economic Forum, Davos, Switzerland, that a few candidates' names can generate an overall consensus on judging panels and yet, when it came to finding the best global central bank governor of the year, Sanusi was chosen unanimously.

greatreality:
Because you're feeding on government money and pretending not to, just to impose it on others. Carry money and buy sense abeg.

We are all feeding on FG money, no state excluded, so hold your leaders accountable and stop fooling yourself.

First of all, there's nothing like "South resources". Nigerian resources are what are being spent to secure the country.

Not that I support the terrorist rehabilitation nonsense.

Secondly, if power in the North couldn't stop cultism, ritual killings, human skull mining, suicidal drug trafficking and other insanities in the South then I doubt if anything (except good quality leadership from any region) can stop violent crime nationwide.

Sweeetheart:
will the power back to south stop using south resources to takecare of bokoharam, bandits and Fulani herdsmen repentants?


will it stop the religion violence and intolerance of average northeners

we are talking about sanity, you're talking about politics. how can one enjoy true form of politics with scarcity of sanity?

Sweeetheart:
whatever rock your boat, everybody will soon get tired of North stupidity

The North is stupid for saying everyone should have the right to run for office? I really am not familiar with this brand of stupidity you're alluding to.

For your info, a huge bulk of the North, including myself, actually want power to move south because doing otherwise would be at the risk of our national unity.

Stop being so marklessly presumptuous.

greatreality:
If not for the south west and east let me see if you people would have have mouth to speak, giant indeed, when 95% are been impoverished.
mtsheeew

South East?

Do you even realise that the North West has a greater IGR than the SE? How do you think we are financing all these megaprojects and where do you think the billions budgeted to eliminate street begging is coming from?

And since over 95% of our crude oil is in the SS...what is the basis of your ridiculous statement?

For your information, the bulk of those Kano Projects, including the Longest Flyover in West Africa are state financed projects so don't fool yourself.

Sweeetheart:
if North central support it, how is North the majority

I blame the naive south that allow grabbing of their respective areas to North


as far as I'm concern if a southern president want restructuring, he knows how to lobby the North central

Lol who are the "North Central"? Where do their allegiances lay?

Niger? Nassarawa? Kogi? Ilorin Emirate?

Anyways good luck

Sweeetheart:
North doesn't have problem with Tinubu as people have been speculating


North are only scared a southerner president might push for restructuring because they know the implications, their allies in Southern Nigeria coming up with Amotekun made them to be more feeling insecure because Yoruba sudden change in Amotekun establishment really made them feel imbalance politically, that's why you see some supporting south president and some against it. Tinubu understand northerners feelings hence is neutrality on Amotekun


As far as 2023 is concern, north is totally confused

"Totally confused"? Absolutely wrong.

What you failed to realise is that restructuring is only possible through the National Assembly where the North retains the clear majority.

Think again.

Racoon:
And how have the exclusive right of producing most of Nigerian presidents by the core north helped the cause of the region itself & the country as a whole? It's not the same shithole since 1966? So Bleep you all power mongers.

The answer is why you cannot militarily secede by force even if your life depended on it.

It is why the North still has the best public infrastructure (roads, rails, dams, airports, dry ports, govt facilities etc) .

Northern political dominance is however not the reason why Aba resembles a pig's shithole or why your youths are stuffing their intestines with chemicals daily to escape the region only to get slaughtered in Asia.

Don't get it twisted.

This is expectedly in acting capacity, as the substantive Chairman when confirmed will most likely be from the North, to pave way for a southern APC presidential candidate.

Even a blind bat knows there is no way the APC will zone its ticket to the North for the 3rd consecutive time.

Arewa for Southern Presidency 2023

Suremikky:
And so what?is it an abomination if another qualified southerner replace him?

Is it an abomination if a qualified Northerner replaces a southerner after his 4 years?

He who comes to equity must come with clean hands.

MrALIVE:
that does not deny the obvious fact that buhari is a chronic bigot....quit the defence..buhari is not someone you can defend because he will make you look stupid with another act of Nepotism.

What did you say about the Akwa-Ibomite that was bluntly refused an appointment as Chief Justice in neighbouring Cross River earlier today? Was that also Buhari?

https://www.nairaland.com/5717435/cross-river-assembly-rejects-ikpeme

A lot of hot air on this matter is just sheer hypocrisy and display of the same bigotry you accuse the President of.

Grgton:
so?? what about other appointments he has done where northerners esp Fulani still retain the position. m not against whoever he appoint but he shouldn't forget Nigeria is Federal, all should be represented

Please refer to my last post.

TheApologist:
is anything wrong with him replacing Dakuku with a Southerner? Any time the tenure of a Northerner expires, the person gets replaced with another Northerner but a Southerner must always be replaced with a Northerner. Where is the equity, Buhari is too nepotic, lopsidedness in his appointments is glaring even to the blind so just shut it up with your lame defense.

You shut up with your baseless tripe. The worst form of arrogance is the type rooted in grand ignorance.

A few recent appointments :

(a) Nigerians Communications Commission (NCC) - Prof. Adeolu Akande (South West) replaces Senator Olabiyi Durojaiye (South West) as Chairman, Board of Commissioners

(b) Mr Uche Onwude (South East) replaces Senator Ifeanyi Godwin Ararume (South East) as Non-Executive Commissioner

(c) The Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST); Dr Ismail Adebayo Adewusi (South West) replaces Barrister Bisi Adegbuyi (South West) as Postmaster General/CEO...

Besides where is the new Head of Civil Service Dr Folasade Yemi-Esan from? Zamfara? Daura?

Did she not succeed a fellow southerner (Ekanem Oyo Ita)?

You are free to wail your head off for all I care, but don't pollute my mentions with any more hypocritical, pedestrian, thoughtless mumbo-jumbo.

tsephanyah:
I hope you people will figure out the conspiracy ignos trying install Against Yoruba Christians and Yoruba Muslims.

Their plot is dead on arrival.

OZAOEKPE:
I no no why I hate you, I just hate you

You don't hate me, you just hate the truth.

Learn to love and be loved.

Hatred is a self-consuming spirit.

God bless you.

tsephanyah:
My darling APC. Good job El-rufai and kashim shettima for making this happen in a twisted manner... The North can now give power to whoever we want from SW beside Tinubu

Brilliant.

He had no idea what hit him.

Project Southern Presidency 2023 is on course

MrALIVE:
This bigot will never for once disappoint....keep teaching other regions how to enthrone nepotism...the Northerners will feel the effect of this Notthernization policy the day southerner will be President.....i hope they won't complain.

I hope you realise the person he's replacing is a southerner that has been there for the past 4 years.

TheTourist:
AS AN IGBO TRIBE MEMBER I WILL HUMBLY OWN UP TO THIS BEING THE BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER MADE. IT KICKSTARTED A CHAIN REACTION OF EVENTS THAT EVENTUALLY CONSUMED US ALL.

Nothing sets you free like the truth.

wwwihy:
South East are not interested in Presidency... They are ready to vote anybody from the North inasmuch as it is against anybody from the South West.

Don't you just love Nigerian politics?

selemempe:
you have spent your nairaland time asslicking yorubas... don't you get worried?

Diplomacy has always looked like “arselickin” to the average, untrained nyamiri eye so no worries here :）

PaChukwudi44:
You make comments as if you attend meetings with Buhari and Abba Kyari. Stop forming.Even if at all you are from the North you are just an educated average northener with a mobile phone

You should try harder to not be constantly intimidated by my comments, average or not.

I am not responsible for your wild imaginations & assumptions

PaChukwudi44:
My point remains that it would be double standards to ask the North especially North East not to contest while the SW are allowed to contest after 8years of obasanjo.If the SW is contesting then everyone should contest

I am glad that we can agree for once, that the coast should be clear for everyone to contest...SS,SW,SE,NE,NW,NC.

We are only respecting the gentlemanly rotation agreement out of love for our national unity (despite the south violating it in 2011); nobody is barred from contesting from the North regardless.

PaChukwudi44:
If the SW is contesting then every region should also contest.If we are to go by zoning then there is no reason for the SW to contest.You had your turn under Obasanjo

Indeed every region must be allowed to contest, just like in 2019 with Moghalu, Durotoye & Atiku.

May the best man win

PaChukwudi44:
Bros stop forming political power broker.You are a political nonentity.

Pa Chuks what is "chukking" you this lovely evening?

Do you want to contest under our dear party? We never close border o...

Nels55:
Presidency should go to South East otherwise North East will have it on platter of gold.

APC Northern elders and youths understand that without strong support of SW by the south, they will eventually submit power to PDP who will be presenting a Northerner from NE...


NE, SE, SS, ME and even core NW will vote for the Northerner, this is the political reality...


APC should sit and find a noble person from SE and solve this puzzle once and for all..

Any APC member from the SE is free to contest, but he will be weeded out @ the primaries in harvest of what the region has sowed in & against the party.

P.S I am core NW but I am voting for a southerner come 2023 & I'm not alone.

Awol1:
And what law did I go against by being surprised?

Just rather amused that you were expecting something else.

Awol1:
Simply put...

Buhari has agreed that Fayemi or Osinbajo should get the ticket with Elrufai as president.

While Fayemi or Osinbajo will be figure head if they win, Elrufai will be the de facto president.

Surrounded by the Fulani cabals, if the figurehead dares do anyhow, it will be cut off.

The underlying factor is the Fulani Agenda. The don't want it truncated anymore.

Of course, Elrufai will take over after the southern pseudo-presidency.

This people have finished playing pim-pom with our future.

You sound geniunely surprised.

Lol.

TooMuchStuff:
Because u think he's some gods or what??

A bloody Fulani opportunist from Niger Republic?

Your headache not mine
