Why Nominees Are Rejecting Buhari's Appointment. by Emmahunk(m): 11:38am On Oct 26, 2016 |
Once upon a time ; There was a Nigeria where people go as far as engaging in human sacrifices and rituals just to get presidential appointments. Many others resort to bank loans, borrowing and mortgage to finance their lobbying. The residences of known political godfathers turn to pilgrimage Centers and most competitive opponents meet with sudden accidents or sometimes were brazenly assassinated. Potential nominees were forced to swear oaths of allegiance to the powers that be. Godfathers paddled the offices of the ones they installed and dictated to them on appointments, award of contracts and disbursements of funds. At a stage in that Nigeria, this act of thuggery became almost a right. Today, in this same Country, people are not even consulted before nomination. Their records, antecedents and integrity speak for them. Some just wake up to a call for screening by Dss or NASS or both. It's nothing but a miracle and answer to our prayers ( both Christians and Moslems) that God should give us a leader that will redirect the dangerous course that this Country was headed. So why are people no longer killing and lobbying to get appointments but are rather running away even when appointed. And I ask why? Is it because a new guideline that ensures accountability has been put in place? Or is it because so many powers like award of contracts have been stripped? Or maybe the anti graft agencies have woken up from their deep slumber? Or maybe, just maybe, there's someone now at the head that asks questions? Or what do you think? 2 Likes 2 Shares |

nice thought, and all these people follow us sing national anthem and recite the national pledge o. I Pledge to Nigeria my country to be faithful, loyal and honest, to serve Nigeria with all my strength, to defend her unity and uphold her honour and glory, so help me God. Arise, O compatriots Nigeria's call obey To serve our fatherland With love and strength and faith The labour of our heroes past Shall never be in vain To serve with heart and might One nation bound in freedom Peace and unity. 3 Likes |

That can't be true. If you do not pass those exams, you don't get promoted. Even if your father is the president. FYI, I'm a retired soldier. sekundosekundo: 6 Likes |

No more free money. You are expected to work. In saner countries, public service is exactly what is....service. Not an opportunity to amass stupendous wealth as has been the case in Nigeria. So those who know themselves have advised themselves accordingly. This is a good sign. And it is what Nigerians have been praying for: public offices must be made less lucrative and therefore less attractive. But in the rush to condemn because of political affiliation or ethnic bigotry, a lot of people won't see that. 4 Likes |

As nice and reasonable these points are, non of them is strong a factor enough to make a career politician ignore a chance to be called "your excellency" or "honourable". Here's my opinion as regards the reason (below): 1. These guys are career and professional politicians, who, inspite of the propaganda, know the acceptance rate of the present govt and arw aware, that 2019 is at d corner. BOTTOMLINE, they dont wanna sink with a sinking ship. 2. These people understand how democracy and governance work, if you have a president who sends you to another country as the emissary of Nigeria but would not listen to a single word of advice from you or read a single report about events, it'll be a casee of "toothless bulldog". 3. Lastly but most important, you dont want to be an appointed official and living in a shameful condition and yet your menber of foreign staff not being paud thier salaries, allowances and wages..........thats suicidal. .............my opinion. 4 Likes |

It confirms what Aisha Buhari said-appointment not vetted by GMB. He doesn't need to personally know them, but should have had a team to personally interview those appointees. How about calling them on the phone before submitting their names? This is the most unserious and unprepared president in Naija! |

Hahahaha....These people never cease to amaze me. If my memory serves me right, Dr fasheun rejected Gej's appointment, Ben Nwabueze rejected Gej's appointment, Femi Falana rejected Gej's appointment and a few others I can't remember. Epistles weren't written, heaven didn't fall. But since it has to do with Buhari, something has to be wrong somewhere. God, please purge us of these clowns we know as "fellow Nigerians". |
