Is President Buhari A Tribalist?: An Analysis by Adelaide2: 8:28pm On Jul 01, 2015

IS PRESIDENT BUHARI A TRIBALIST?

Clearly, from the body language of PMB and his latest appointments, I may be forced to conclude that we now have a tribalist as the President of Nigeria. If I am from the north, honestly I will distance myself from this government of the north, by the north/SW, and for the north. It is morally wrong and against the federal character system.

I will because the south, if they are united, can ensure that power does not return to the north ever again, if this is what they will always get from any northern President whenever they get to power. The north alone can not vote a northerner into power, like wise the south (I must add).

Interestingly, the North often claim they are educational disadvantage zone. If they are educational disadvantaged, it clearly shows that people from the south would be more inclined to managing the affairs of this country proficiently and prudently. It means that for the nation to move forward, the President must pick their best ten from the zone that are educational advanced. In a country where the north claim to be educational disadvantaged, how come whenever a northerner is in power, they tend to pick the best ten from the same north that is educational backward? It is either they are not educational backward but collecting the subvention of educational backward people or they are indeed educationally backwards and therefore not the best qualified to hold these positions. I have some northern colleagues and they are on fire educationally. So perhaps the time we start changing some of this lies the military imposed on us is now. And if they insist they are educational backward in order to continue benefitting from all the benefits accrued to educationally disadvantaged zone, they should relinquish the position that is meant for put best 10. They must settle for one.

I am not even worried about the ranting that would follow this post. I am not the one that referred to them as being educationally disadvantaged; the constitution they created did.

I was never a fan of PMB. His recent appointments further support why I won't change my stand anytime soon. He has failed to adhere to the federal character system with his appointments and no one is talking. The Yoruba media are silent to avoid been a laughing stock to other parts of the south because the monster they imposed on Nigerians in the name of change is beginning to bite back.

Now, they have resorted to fighting Saraki. But what they failed to understand is that Saraki is a Fulani man, Buhari is a Fulani man....do they think that a Fulani man would fight for the downfall of another Fulani? In fact, a Fulani man is ready to kill a whole village if one of their cattle went missing, let alone allowing the position of senate president to slip from them. So if anything happens to Saraki, serious conflicts may be witnessed between the Fulanis and the Yorubas. Thus, the Yorubas should recall their attack dog, Sowore, and channel their energy towards 2019 because clearly, they are holding the short end of the stick in this power game.

Therefore, the earlier they stop fighting Saraki, they better for them.

I have tried to be as objective as I can possible be; but I am angry over recent political developments since the APC take over.

A slave will always remain a slave. Indeed, most of the Yoruba 'leaders' are slaves to their Hausa/Fulani Lords......imagine Tinubu playing to the gallery despite lessons he ought to learn from Afonja, Chief S.L Akintola, M.K.O Abiola ......what a pity.
