In recent weeks there has been a campaign by some people who claim that President Olusegun Obasanjo was discriminatory in the appointment of heads of security and safety agencies during his tenure. They claim that he did not appoint people from certain geo-political zones, ethnic groups or religions to head security or safety agencies during his tenure.

Why Attack Buhari, All IGP During Obasanjo Tenure Were All Yorubas

History Of Chief Of Army Staff Appointments From 1999 Till Date


Their claim that President Olusegun Obasanjo was discriminatory in the appointment of heads of security and safety agencies during his tenure is obviously false. I believe that those that are making these claims are trying to justify President Buhari's appointments. They usually select just one position and use that as an example (no president can appoint people from every state, zone, religion or ethnic group into just one position), but their claim that President Obasanjo was selective or discriminatory is false and this will be shown by the list below.


I compiled a list of the people that President Obasanjo appointed to head such agencies, but I later deleted the list because I believe that people should be appointed based on merit rather than their state of origin, ethnicity or religion. However, these people have continued to make these false claims, so it's necessary to set the record straight. Here is the list.

To list all the so called Christians appointed by Olusegun Obusonjo is not the issue. The real issue is whether the people that he appointed were:
1. Qualified
2. Next in line (Not moved from the bottom to the top due to their ethnicity or religious affiliation).

The appointments by B0K0HARI is very clear to everyone that they are all based on ethnicity and religious affiliation and NOT QUALIFICATION or SENIORITY. So, the author is wasting all efforts trying to prove a point that's so IDIOTIC, it makes one nauseated. Why start from 1999? Why not go beyond Obasanjo and start as far back as 1970 after the Biafran genocide? All this game that FULANIS are playing is not new...you can FOOL only the gullible but NOT BIAFRANS.

Another FAKE NEWS! First of all IPOB is not in the FOREST. Secondly, I see an NPF insignia on a hat displayed as one of the items that were allegedly recovered. So, these are your FAKE and preplanned KILLINGS of innocent people. Keep up with your KILLINGS and you would all PERISH in BIAFRA LAND!

How can a military that suppose to defend the territorial integrity of a country be killing its own people. To watch a video where they were given orders to KILL any man, woman, children in BIAFRA land is the highest form of COWARDICE. All you IDIOTS would perish in BIAFRA LAND!

Who are the IDIOTS that are clamoring for ONE NIGERIA? Do you see the result of UNITY? Any BASTARD that talks about ONE NIGERIA again, I pray that lightning would strike and DESTROY you and your generations. IDIOTS!

I was just wondering if the CHINESE man was paraded along with the other criminals or was he given a preferential treatment like the ZOO always do!

I wonder why the starting point was from 1999? Why NOT go back farther than that or was it just to prove a specific narrative? Hmmm!

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has assured Nigerians that in spite of the current security challenges,
the country is in safe hands.

What's wrong with this old, senile FOOL? From under what rock did he crawl out for him to say something this IDIOTIC? And these are the same people that PILOT the affairs of the ZOO. Good luck guys! Your ONE NIGERIA is heading for DESTRUCTION!

You guys NEED to BURN DOWN the Embassy. Destroy EVERYTHING ZOOGERIA because the country DOES NOT exist anymore ONLY on paper. The FULANIS have shown that by the way they are STEALING FUNDS from the coffers. Let's help them DESTROY what's left of ZOOGERIA.

That's what happens when you engage in poor construction as a means to siphon public FUNDS.

A group known as the Muslim Congress has submitted a memo to the Senate Committee on the Review of the 1999 Constitution, proposing the implementation of Sharia in the southwest region.

There you have it. The ZOO is supposed to be a secular country, yet these IDIOTS are trying not ONLY to FULANIZE it but to ISLAMIZE it as well. What a waste of space... GOD should not have created this space.

What a HOPELESS country!

This Umahi guy is a numbskull and a pathological liar bereft of any sense of reality. How could he open his mouth to say that it was not a failed suicide bomber attack but the unexpected explosion of a security personnel's grenade? Does he think that people are as STUPID as he is? The irony is that this is the type of FOOLS running the show in the ZOO. No wonder the zoo is always going backwards.

MUSLIMS in Oyo State have staged a protest to express their support for Palestine, condemning the Israeli government for the recent havoc wreaked on Palestinians.

How STUPID can a people be? You're been killed by the FULANI TERRORISTS in your country but you NEVER raised a voice in protest. Then you have the strength and the audacity to protest what's going on in FAR away land.

ANOTHER FAKE ass NEWS. I guess the IDIOTS that keep propagating these FLASEHOODS really have nothing else important to do.

The governor while stating that some of the attacks in the state were not carried out by Igbos insisted that some people he described as idiots are sponsoring kidnappers and robbers to make the state a theater of war.

The above statement by HOPELESS UZODINJO is the dumbest statement I have ever heard. If the incessant attacks in IMO STATE are not done by Igbos, why the f**k did you invite the ZOO military to keep KILLING BIAFRANS? I know he's stupid but I NEVER thought he's that SLOW.

ANYONE that BELIEVES in ONE NIGERIA is a DEVIL! How can anyone with any brain cells believe in a country that offers NOTHING but HOPELESSNESS, DESPAIR and DEATH? NIGERIA is CURSED and there's absolutely no way to salvage its demise!

A FRIEND of my ENEMY is my ENEMY!

Nigeria is a Sovereign territory governed by a defined enacted constitution which states that every citizen has the right to live and go about his legal business in any part of the country.

Does this Arewa Youth Group or whatever it calls it self, truly understand the tenets of the section of the Constitution stated above? That you have a right to go and live where ever you choose to and earn a living DOES NOT mean that you have a right to DENY another his right to earn a living as well. In essence, these IDIOTS fail to understand that their rights to earn a living ENDS where the right of another to earn a living BEGINS. Your right to live where ever you choose to and do business DOES NOT TRUMP other peoples' rights. I really HATE it when people start quoting Constitutional provisions without the understanding of the true meaning of what they are espousing. FULANI KILLERS claim they have rights, so do others and their right to do their business does not supersede others' rights.

That's a classical FREUDIAN SLIP. Like they say, “Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.” The man said exactly what he felt.

The judge, in her conclusion below, is clearly chastising State Governors to go and act as they already have the power to do rather than be wasting the time of the court with frivolities.

Southern Governors should stop being cowards and political slaves to begin putting their people first not Buhari or what pleases the President and his regressive cabal consisting the likes of Malami, Pantami etal.

There you have it. The ZOOGERIA court had affirmed the anti grazing law that had been on the books for ages now. The COWARD southern governors would have NO MORE EXCUSES for NOT upholding the law.

Why is this IDIOT, Adamu Garba, blabbing his mouth? We know the game that's being played by the FULANI cabal covering for B0K0HARI impostor. Truth be told, the ONLY reason Osibanjo did not attend the burial of the EVIL ONE, Attahiru is to cover up for the ABSENCE of the DEAD B0K0HARI. Think about it, if Osibanjo had attended and B0K0HARI did not show up, that would lend credence to the already known fact that B0K0HARI is late. And since Osibanjo did not show up, then their defense would be well, if you're saying that B0K0HARI is dead because he did not show up, what about Osibanjo who did not show up? Is Osibanjo dead too for not showing up? So, this is the ONLY REASON why the VP was assuaged not to attend in order to make their COVER UP palatable.

potbelly:
If the commander in chief of armed forces of the federal republic of Nigeria cannot attend the burial of his previous chief of army staff it shows the type of person Buhari is

Dead man can not ATTEND burial of his previous Chief of Army Staff. He's dead!

The Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, on Friday, reiterated his call to people of the state to rise and defend themselves from external attacks, particularly by militia herdsmen.

I totally agree with the premise of self defense by any means necessary especially when your life is in peril. But how can one defend himself against an ARMED ENEMY when you were stripped off your means of defense by the same person telling you that you have a right to self defense? Was it not the same ORTOM who confiscated arms and ammunitions from his CITIZENS? How can he tell his people now to defend themselves? With what are they going to defend themselves against armed KILLERS? With Machetes, Sticks and Stones? Mr. Ortom should be for real. He needs to provide his citizens with guns and bullets if he SERIOUSLY wants them to DEFEND themselves.

When would NIGERIANS rise up and say NO to these VIOLATIONS of their CIVIL LIBERTIES and PRIVACY by this FULANI Government? There's absolutely no reasonable purpose for all these DEHUMANIZING and PRIVACY INVADING edicts other than to track for elimination perceived ENEMIES of this FULANI TERRORIST government. I hope citizens would not fall for this and would STAND UP en-masse for ONCE and REFUSE to provide the government with any such information that would lead to their demise.

The Chairman, South East Governors’ Forum and Governor of Ebonyi, David Umahi, gave the assurance in Abuja on at a media event organised by the Presidential Media Team.

All you COWARD, HUMBLE SLAVE, EVIL governors of the Southeast deserve NOTHING but a deadly CURSE on you and your generations for saying that you believe in ONE NIGERIA. There's a special place for all you IDIOTS, PIT of HELL!

President Muhammadu Buhari is deeply saddened over the air crash that claimed the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Ibrahim Attahiru, and other military officers.

We would SEE if the dead B0K0HARI would attend the burial of his EVIL, MURDERER COAS, Attahiru.

xpressionx:
How will he explain his death to God.

He probably would tell GOD that he fell to his death while he was dong Shaku Shaku dance!

National President of Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, Abdullahi Bello Bodejo has dismissed the ban on open grazing declared recently by the Southern Governors Forum. He has also instructed Fulani herdsmen not to obey the directive but to keep grazing their cattle wherever they find themselves in all the states of the country.

I don't really give much credence to what the leader of the Miyetti Allah TERRORIST group, the MAN that looks like a lady, Abdullahi Bodejo, said. My concern is what would be the reactions of the COWARD Southern governors especially the EASTERNERS for the DISOBEDIENCE of their open grazing ban order. This is really where the rubber meets the road. They can make pronouncements openly for photo ops but if they can't back them up with real actions, then what's the point? No wonder the MIYETTI TERRORIST group called their ban action a JOKE! We will see if their barkings have any teeth!

Our men and women in uniform will continue to deal with the enemies of Nigeria.

And so would they be DYING like FLIES! Keep staying the course!

Go on my ODUDUWA brothers and sisters! Together WE will FREE OURSELVES from the shackles of these MURDEROUS FULANI CABALS! They DON"T CONTRIBUTE NOTHING to the economy and YET they take everything!

Late COAS Didn't Say "Over My Death Will Biafra, Oduduwa Emerge!"

Whether he made the statement or not, it makes no difference. Like they say, "Action speaks louder than words." His actions SPOKE LOUDER. He was responsible for the murder of over 300 innocent Biafrans whose ONLY crime were yearning to be FREE in the land of their ancestors. So, for the author and others to focus on minutia and disproving whether he actually made the statement rather than his actions, goes to show how irresponsible and biased they are. Attahiru was a murderer and he met his death in a very violent way. I hope this is a lesson to all those who are bent on acting like the Egyptian Pharaoh who hardened his hearty when the Israelites yearned to be FREE and GOD asked him to LET HIS PEOPLE GO. But he was too STUBBORN to hearken to the VOICE of the ALMIGHTY GOD! We all know how that episode ended! Be WARNED because there are more deaths to COME!
