Why should we bother the nation about promotions in the NNPC if we are a serious nation. NNPC is just an oil company (a bankrupt and poorly run one for that matter!) The Rilwan Lukman's favoured their own when they were in charge so why should Jonathan not reverse it and favour his own kith and kiln? |

The keyword to me here is "NEW". This means that the exercise could have been carried out to ensure "balance". Until facts are provided about all the management positions(old and new) I see this as "aboki" propaganda. fstranger3: Why not think of how you and your people will survive after the oil. Think and tell me how many states in your region can survive without handouts from the center. Think properly please. At the moment, the oil is "everything" in terms of revenue not just to SS but to the entire nation. Dont make the mistake of telling me about IGR in lagos because that in itself happens indirectly by oil revenue. |
