Festus Keyamo
The youth wing of the pan-Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has demanded an unconditional apology from human rights lawyer, Festus Keyamo, for dismissing the outrage by Ndigbo over their exclusion in federal appointments as “mere noise.”

Keyamo, had while defending President Muhammadu Buhari against the allegations of deliberate exclusion of the South-East in his political appointments so far, said those criticising the President “are political job seekers.”

The lawyer said the Ndigbo were the greatest beneficiaries of Buhari’s appointments so far, and had no justification to allege marginalisation.

His words: “We, the elite, should not be moved by this noise and selfish agenda. Imagine a whole ethnic group campaigning for a position! Initially, they said Chief of Staff, then Secretary to the Government of the Federation.

“Now, with all the noise they have been making since May 29, imagine if one person from that region is appointed to that position. That person will then see himself as a champion of his ethnic group and his kinsmen will descend on that office in the area of contracts and gifts.”

The group described Keyamo as “a desperate political sycophant who sees insulting the Ndigbo as the fastest way to get the attention of Buhari for consideration for a political appointment.”

A statement by the National President of the Ohanaeze Youth Congress, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, said Keyamo only resorted to attacking the Ndigbo for cheap public notice.

The statement issued on Monday in Umuahia, Abia State, regretted that “the likes of Keyamo will shamelessly deny obvious truths for selfish interest and political patronage.”

The statement read in part, “Ordinarily, we would not like to take issues with the likes of Keyamo as doing so will dignify him but we only want to warn him against the dangers of fighting a whole tribe.

“It is a pity that a lawyer like Keyamo, who should know better, has decided to see nothing wrong with the deliberate exclusion of a whole geopolitical zone from the over 30 key political appointments so far made by Buhari since he came on board.”

The OYC warned Keyamo to tread with caution over his remarks on issues affecting the Igbo nation.

They were indeed the pillar of Jonah's cluelessness and maladministration.

A group, Concerned Elders of the North, CEN, in answer to the accusation of lopsided appointments by President Muhammadu Buhari, made by some aggrieved people from the South, has released a list of some appointments made by the Goodluck Jonathan government.

It claimed that what Buhari has done is that he has merely chosen people he knows well as his personal staff “which is to be expected of any serious President”.

The appointments made by Buhari include his ADC, the State Chief of Protocol, the National Security Adviser, the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) and the DG, SSS.

The list of the appointments by the Jonathan administration, sent to Sunday Vanguard by the group, at the weekend, is made up of people from the South.

The first group of 13 appointees (a minister, the SGF and heads of parastatals) were from the South-East while most of those in the second group of 37 were mostly from the South-East and the South-South.

No wonder, they keep running away from the cursed land of dawning sun, on a daily basis.

xtrorse:
Abobaku, the frustrated descendant of a fallen demon and a product of Incestuous relations, raised in an evil enclave called Soka Evil Forest where human parts are traded for money. Your portion is with the late Ooni in the great beyond! You are not needed amongst the living.

Yoruba land has proven to be the Haven of ritualists and human parts dealers in the whole universe.

How many human heads in addition to an Abobaku were used to bury Ooni of Ife? What do you have to say about that?

Disciple of hate and propaganda, let me still remind you what your 'suffersticated' Yoruba people are notorious for.
Yorubas started 419 business in Lagos; then advanced to Credit Card Fraud, Bank Fraud and Drugs smuggling in UK. 
Yorubas single handedly built a Scam Empire in Lagos Island known as Oluwole!
In case you have are too dazed to remember,
Yoruba tribe is The Captain of the Scam Industry of Nigeria!

Fetish barbarians with a primitive culture still arrogantly parading themselves as a 'sophisticated' people! It's pathetic and disgusting!

What is this wasted ovum saying?

You should have been disposed of as alongside sanitary pad, armed robbery from heart of gully eroded and cursed land of alaigbo.

No wonder, migration of able bodied men and brain drain have become order of the day in the land of the dawning sun.

xtrorse:
Abobaku, the despicable cretin from an Incestuous relations of Odua Islamic Republic of Ritual-killers, if you are worth your salt, instead of whining, weeping and wailing profusely on every available media in vain simply bar Igbos from this blog with immediate alacrity. That will take care of your migraine, sleepless nights and nightmares on Biaf...

Bunch of genetically, religiously and socially confused hypocritical parasites and foul, loud-mouthed ingrates who cannot take a stand without dragging other tribes along with their wicked lies and propaganda and ass-licking of their slave masters to stand a chance to withstand Igbos!

What is this demented Osu caste and eternal Nigerian Slave saying with his verbose, incoherent and senile vomits.

Descendant of cain, brother to osikankwu, fathered by Clifford Orji, delivered in Okija Shrine, bathed with Ezzu River water, fed with human beings' meat, industrialist in baby factory kidnapping, fake goods fake drugs, drug trafficking and aimlessly wandering the surface of the earth seeking whom to devour like devil and your cursed father Cain.

Shameless chest beating cannibals from the Jungle of Biafra should leave Nairaland for Nigerians.

Ordinary virile social forum they cannot build for their pathetic campaign. As usual they are waiting for a yoruba man to build the Biafraudland.com for them.

Su.cks to be these jokers.

tomakint:
You are still lip-synching the monotonous tunes of your masters up North as a certified slave boy!

See this certified war booty, our eternal slaves that are procreating serve us till eternity.

Suc.ks to be a y1b.o like you.

PMB keeps ruling constitutionally and noise makers keep wailing.

tuniski:
and what has buhari done to achieve those improvements? Be objective and stop stealing GEj's glory. Buhari himself on NTA has said he had nothing to do with the improvements. The NERC has issued press statement stating clearly that it was the work of previous administration painfully being undertaken that resulted in the improvement. Body language don't deliver results rather it will lead to slap!

Why was the result not achieved under Jonathan?

Just answer that and you will see the difference and what body language can achieve.

dealslip:
I agree completely with your points however, continous appointment from the North is passing a message to the other parts of the country which is Buhari cannot find honest people in the South. Competency is not in doubt obviously. I put it across to you can you honestly say Southerners are the most dishonest in Nigeria which warrants Buhari's distrust. Buhari should spread his dragnet beyond his close pals and CPC faithfuls, all Nigerians voted him in.

Totally in agreement.

dealslip:
corruption has been Nigeria's undoing and is not limited to the South, just like Oduah and Tafa, we also have the Salisu Buhari's and Farook Lawans and even El Rufai during OBJ's time. Is Buhari saying he can only find honest and competent people in the North alone. You might not care about the lopsided appointments but majority do and this can disturb the polity and their trust for and cooperation with Buhari. Even APC is appalled not to talk of Nigerians with no particular party affiliation.

I could not agree less.

We cannot keep doing the same thing, in the same way and expecting different results.

For me, competency should take preeminence over ethnicity, religion and zone.

ocelot2006:
This is thing with you folks. When you know you can't take anything from GEJ, you try to attribute it to OBJ. Well newsflash boy: no one's claiming the Establishment of NIPP. That is all OBJ. But GEJ administration takes credit for building MASSIVELY on that success. THAT is expected of GMB, not noise and baseless "body language" propaganda.

BTW, I never gave GMB that point "grudgingly". I'm just saying it as it is cos of the voodoo economics currently at play. As someone rightfully put it, its like starving one's children just to prove that you have money in the bank.

So you would rather us have a situation whereby tooth pick importers, tile importers doors importers, iron wrought importers, etc keep wasting our FX on goods that can be produced locally?

Thereby contributing to unemployment and lower GDP.

Infact, the list should be increased.

What is wrong with our churches for goodness sake?

Buhari should also call for National Conference of Looters.

Rubbish.

What is now the function of our religious institutions if they cannot appeal to the conscience of people on Sundays and Fridays. We can as well do away with the churches and mosques then.

dealslip:
while I agree with you, I just want to butress the fact that there equally competent people down south. Dora, Adesina all come to mind when we are looking for competency they are southerners that were exemplary in their ministries. Statistics confirm that more competency and technicalities know how is concentrated in the South. I am not after religion and ethnicity but the balancing of appointments across the nation. Truth be told, his appointment are obviously lopsided. Buhari already has an history of tyranny and tribalism.

I quite agree with you either.

Will I have a competent but corrupt Stealer Oduah or Tafa Balogun or Alams at the expense of a competent but not corrupt Sanni?

I care less about region and ethnicity
Appointments will not benefit all of us individually and directly, but the dividend of appointing competent people will trickle down to all whether directly or indirectly.

ocelot2006:
*leadership...........you're joking, right? The clown can't even formulate basic policies

*competency......tell that to the Economy

*detribalised and unclannish president...you did see the recent appointments, right? Yet you call him detribalised?!

*anti-corruption....the joke of the year. "I will I will". All talk, ZERO ACTION/MOTION.

*defeat of terrorists....Tell that to the IDPs in Borno and Yobe. You do know there was an attack yesterday (68 dead), right?

* improving electricity....will you stop claiming GEJ's feats? It's pathetic. Body language don't do jackshyte

*working refineries....again, GEJ's feat. This is getting to pathetic. Clear sign of desperation.

* increasing national reserve...I'll give him that....even if it meant starving legitimate businesses of much needed FX for trade, thus stagnating business operations in the country. No wonder investors are now dumping Nigeria for Ethiopia.

Thank God you gave him kudos for one grudgingly.

You are beginning to see the light gradually.

GEJ's achievements in what way? Why did the light not improve under him and why did refineries refused to work under him?

OBJ developed the template for Power and initiated it, which GEJ was trying to claim. Likewise Railway reform. The story we heard then was, it is not who imitated but under whom the reforms are working. Same is applicable now.

tuniski:
it is a pity some are still self deceiving just to feel right with the scam apc/buhari. So competence is now a northern exclusivity. If merit and performance are the yardsticks buhari is not d most qualified to be president neither will he find enuff people to form a cabinet from amongst his north on national merit! Call a spade a spade buhari is narrow and it is wrong. Anyway, in the fullness of time the citizens disillusion will catch up with him. Let the few sycophants and praise singers keep shouting Sai Buhari to high heavens reality doesn't lie!

He is the president and he has the right to choose his team, no matter where they are from.

Is electricity improving? Yes
Are refineries working? Yes
Is national reserve increasing? Yes
Is anti-corruption war on track? Yes
Is the body language against corruption? Yes

If all his appointments so far achieved that, carry go Baba.

dealslip:
and there are no qualified and meritorious people in the south? There is so much evidence that the most qualified professionally and technically will likely be from the South. Fani Kayode may appear to be a lunatic but his observations are just right. Most of this indomie generation were wooed via what they know and where they sleep; Social Media where some people's opinion and lies are peddled as the truth and fact. Anyone who was at least 15 years old during the Abacha administration would understand what Fan Kayode is saying.

You can only judge him when the people that he appoints perform below par.

Competency is more important than ethnicity and religion. I am waiting for one year to judge his appointments on competency.

ocelot2006:
Here's what your PVC brought

*Confusion
*Ineptitude
*Tribalism
*Nepotism
*Incompetence
*Surge in terror attacks
*Economy in downfall mode
*Corruption

Na lie.

It earned me

*leadership
*competency
*detribalised and unclannish president
*anti-corruption
*defeat of terrorists.
* improving electricity
*working refineries
* increasing national reserve

Your Drunken Master of Otuoke, could not achieve 1/3rd of that in 6years. He was indeed Jonathan.

FreeGlobe:
well the wailing region of this country are not concerned about a Buhari appointment. we are only concerned about the western part of the country that gave all their best to the nothern king and yet get nothing in return. Now wailing with us wailing wailers. We are just concern about this northern king turning into a lying liar by denying his campaign promises

Who is wailing with born losers?

FreeGlobe:
Buhari must lead constitutionally.. Federal character is constitutional whether buhari likes it or not. He must accomodate federal character and he must also declare his assets

He is already leading constitutionally and only the corrupts and wailing wailers and talking talkers will refuse to see it.

There are still many appointments to be made. Even the chief cleaner of Presidency is an appointment and the wailing region of this country might be considered for that, in the spirit if Federal Character and competency.

He can even pick people from Daura as his cabinet members, some of us do not give a hoot.

What we want is performance and good governance.

Appointment should not be by ethnicity zones or religion. It should strictly be based on merit and competency.

My vote was not wasted.

With my PVC, I said bye bye to:

1. Clulessness
2. Corruption.
3. Bad governance
4. Body language that supports corruption.

Keep going slowly Baba, surely we shall get there.

Loving my country more than ever before.

No peace for the corrupts. The fear of PMB alone is the beginning of selling fuel at the official price, no over bloated subsidy payment, regular electricity supply, remittance of revenues by different agencies, sudden death of ghost workers, respect in the commity of nations for my dear country etc

God bless Mr President.
God bless Naija.

Haters can jump into the nearest deepest part of the lagoon.

If they are not calm, what will they do?

Apart from issuing lame ultimatum and threatening to report to ICC.

They are not Ikwerre and other God blessed ethnicities that deny the cannibalistic y1bos.
