Alaye, God go bless you for this comment.

All Jonathan's ministers, which party?
All his appointees, Which party?
Marylyn Ogar no be PDP? When she dey accuse APC se PDP talk anything? Did APC's cries yield any relief for d den oppositin?
Labaran Maku no be card carrying PDP before?

Bunch of nit-wits, una never start to wail, una go wail die *in oshio-baba's voice*

When all ministers, and other federal appointees were dancing about @PDP rallies did anybody shout? Now PDP wants to justify itself, thunder wey go fire una dey wait for 7days rain 1st, foo.lish set of people.

Lets be serious, d guy did security job for them and posed for pictures with them #datsall oo...... TELL THEM TO PRODUCE THE MAN'S PARTY CARD 1ST AND EVEN IF DEM PRODUCE AM, THEY ARE JUST THROWING STONES IN THEIR OWN GLASS HOUSE! tongue tongue tongue tongue
Bros abi na babe self, see ehh, ministers are appointed, dss like military are all civil service and if you must know, they are supposed to be non partisan. So appointing a card carrying member to that position is what pdp are complaining bout and is not supposed to be so. You can get a dss guy who doesn't belong to any party and you can as well get him to do your bid, but getting some one who belongs to your party means dss ll become partisan which is not healthy for civil service rules.
Is like you saying Tinubu should become chief of army staff.

PoliticsNigerian President, Made In US by uncleinans(op):
By Garba Shehu

Shortly after the August 1983 military coup that brought a 40-year-old Muhammadu Buhari to power, he received a phone call from a top personnel in the United States Army. General Smith was the Commandant of the U.S. War College from which Buhari graduated in 1980. The school’s 1979 set had graduated its first Nigerian, General Wushishi, who was the Chief of Defence in the just ousted Shehu government. Obama and Buhari “Please, be kind to him,” General Smith said over the phone. The essence of the phone call was not just to congratulate Nigeria’s new Head of State, but to ensure that the first Nigerian to graduate from the U.S. War College would not suffer any indignity under the government of the second Nigerian to graduate from the same school. Former classmates On Wednesday, July 22, members of the U.S. War College Class of 1980 gathered at the Blair House in Washington, DC, to welcome the man they had selected as their football team referee 36 years ago. “Being referee all those years ago taught me to be fair and just,” President Buhari said during the meeting. Among the former classmates gathered were Lt. General Granrud (Commander of the U.S. forces in Japan Rtd), Brigadier General Jack Pellica, General Ronald Griffith (Former Vice Chairman of the U.S. army central command ), Colonel Lany Gordon and Colonel Paul Summerville. General Smith has since passed on, as have all the directing staff and a larger percentage of the old students from the set. “This just shows that all of us are on the queue,” President Buhari said, “waiting for our turn.” The Nigerian Commander-in-Chief said he hoped that the U.S. would continue its tradition of training Nigerians in the war college. At the time he attended the school, he was the only African in his class. The only other foreigners were from Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Israel, Indonesia, Thailand, France and Japan. The Japanese student went on to become the head of his country’s army. President Buhari then went on to update his classmates on his life since he last saw them: his different appointments, his accomplishments and his family. “I have just received my 13th grandchild,” he said. He added that the wife they knew him with at the time had since died, and that he had also lost a son and a daughter from his new wife. “Of all my eight children,” he said, “only one is a boy.” Some of his former classmates were curious to know if President Buhari would place his only son, Yusuf, in the army. “I stopped him from joining the army,” President Buhari replied. He explained that the military he joined was very different from what it is today, adding that he was the second Nigerian to be sent to the U.S. War College—based on his records alone, without connections. “Things took a wrong turn in Nigeria,” he said. “Your records no longer mattered.” Some of the former classmates present at the meeting stated that at the time they met President Buhari back in 1980, they knew little about Nigeria or Africa. They credited the Nigerian leader with giving them their initial enlightenment about the continent. Others recalled how he always overworked himself. However, President Buhari described his war college experience as being responsible for his subsequent life of hard work, endurance and perseverance. “I contested for president three times and failed,” he said. “Then I did it the fourth time and won.” A roar of laughter followed the president’s apt illustration. He then rendered his narrative of the collapse of the Soviet Union, breaking into 18 republics and how that influenced his decision to join politics. “The collapse of the Soviet empire in 1980 without a single shot being fired convinced that the multi-party democratic system was the best for all countries.” President Buhari then expressed appreciation to President Barack Obama and to the U.S. for the role the country played in Nigeria’s successful elections, recalling Secretary of State, John Kerry’s visit to him and to former president Goodluck Jonathan, as well as to Attahiru Jega, the electoral commissioner at the time. Electoral commissioner “Kerry read the riot act to all of us,” he said, “saying that the conduct of the election must be free, fair and in line with the Constitution.” He added that, without US intervention, the electoral malpractices of the past twelve years would likely have happened again. “God made me but America made me,” he said. The Class of 1980 gave President Buhari the full assurances of their support, stating that they were willing to use their experience to assist him in any way they can, particularly with tackling terrorism in northeast Nigeria. They promised to put together and forward to him a compendium of their thoughts on the security situation in Nigeria. In September, President Buhari will be meeting once again with his former classmates, at another event scheduled to take place at the United Nations. Garba is the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity.

Nigeria media can lie ehh. Yes the guy died but they should tell us how he died. They guy had an accident, many believed he was frustrated with the news of him been withdrawn from school. Even this kind of news Nigeria media still give you anonymous as source. Rubish. Nobody has ever graduate from bsu chs. Medcine in bsu is non functional has there are still issues with accreditation. Pioneer has stayed 12 years there and yet to graduate.
