The poverty that is measured in the North is sometimes "by choice" due to the values we hold firmly to our chest. Let me explain. Someone with no means of getting sustenance may choose to BEG those that have, rather than STEAL or engage in CRIMES like drug pedlling. Same with the ladies/women they will rather beg than be a prostitute, baby Mama, drug career or part of a baby factory. Hope you understand 1 Like 1 Share |

theTranslator: You are right there the Translator. North could have dominance in politics due to our cohesion and pragmatic view of things. We are not deceitful hence can form collaboration across regions. We've done with Igbo's before and lately with Yorubas. May be that's why some people are jealous of our political skills. 1 Like |

VERDA: The public sector is equally not dominated by Northerners. The mistake some people used to make was looking at the North as one region while looking at South as SW, SE &SS. They think they should have same share with NW,NE, Middle Belt combined. Ask anybody with data of Federal govt appointments, you will be shocked Southerners are in dominance. |

Mikecold: ...and you are a typical Southerner that whenever he has no point to present he start abuses and use of derogatory words on others. By the way they don't measure IQ level by online rants. The logic is very simple. May be I will take time to explain to you again. "Yes the south controls the private sector, it's their personal money, time, commitment, resources they put into it" Who gave you the impression that South control private sector? The last time I checked Aliko Dangote, a Northerner, is the richest and most successful private Nigerian. The success you want to show off is I'll gotten in many cases, including under the table dealing, drugs, fraud, crime etc. So you can't impress us with such. ( apology to the few well meaning / hardworking Southerners) All the corruption, bad name Nigerians get within and outside the country was mostly by the people of Southern extraction. Bribery and corruption, scratch my back I scratch yours etc are all rooted in the south. Most of you mistake knowledge with speaking good English, eloquence or pompousness. Northerners are humble, quit and discipline. That's the difference. From whichever period you wish to consider, 2 Likes 1 Share |

If claim by Mikecold that the South dominates all private sector (which is result and profit oriented) all along, then from 1999 when democracy was restored, Southerners (Obj 8, GEJ 5) have ruled for a total of 13yrs. Which means the Southerners were in control of BOTH PUBLIC & PRIVATE sectors for 13 out of the 22yrs. Conclusively you are responsible for the woes and bad situation Nigeria found itself in. Your people collapsed the Stock market remember? your people brought MMM, Illegal bunkering, Racketeering etc. Don't you still believe the writer, that no one dominated you. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Mikecold: Pls have you any statistics of the Northerners in Public service? Or are U just talking of POLITICAL APPOINTMENTS? As fa as political appts is concerned, did you follow up on appointments made OBJ, Yaradua and GEJ? You keep talking of merit, may be I should remind you of some collisal failures that you promote as experts because like you said - you control the private media. People like Fowler who served as FIRS Boss and Alpha Beta (enguloed in scandal now). Or it it those from the SS that claim "SHARE THE MONEY" and contract inflation experts. May be you've not been to the North or are just assuming every part if the South is like Lagos or P/Harcourt. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Assuming all these claims you made about the South to be true, then how is the North marginalising the South? Are you not justifying the claims made that "South is not marginalized by North". Rather the reverse is the case, probably due to GET-IT-AT-ALL COST attitude enshrined in the South? Mikecold: 3 Likes 1 Share |

I found this interesting piece from the wall of Engr Sani Balarabe. What is your view of the points he raised. Are Southerners crying wolf where there is none? " PLEASE SPARE ME OF THAT NORTHERN DOMINATION RHETORIC Pls read to the end. No matter how you would want to keep mute and disregard claims of domination by some people of Southern Nigeria, the level of falsehood and misinformation being propelled will keep itching you to respond. I have decided to formulate a short response by asking the ff questions: Who are those in charge of Nigeria's financial institutions, Legal practice, Education sector, Public service, Health, entertainment and the Media? Is it people of Northern extraction or those frm the South? If your answer is "People of Southern extraction are the dominant players, then I will ask you yet another question. Did they earned such position fully on merit or not? If your answer is "YES", then you are most likely not in Nigeria therefore ignorant of it's realities or you are being sentimetal. The following are my reasons: a. If leadership role by the South is merit-earned, then Nigeria wouldn't have been where she is today in terms of development, because the same leaders from the South where in charge of most aspects of our National life, some with no good score card. For instance Southerner ran down Intercontinental & Oceanic banks. Southerners were Former MDs of Bank PHB & Spring Bank, all standing trial for FRAUD. Can a Northerner replicate what Dokpesi did to DAAR communications investors and the media remain silent? Are some leaders from the South not standing trial despite being Judges themselves? the Former CJN and Mrs Rita Ofili are classical examples....the list can goes on and on. But this is not to discount the fact that there ere GOOD & EXEMPLARY leaders from the South, in the likes of Late Prof Akunyili of NAFDAC and Prof Oloyede of JAMB, but rather to establish that in whatever GOOD or BAD state or history of this country, SOUTHERNERS are very well represented. b. Despite the Southerners early start to formal education (which many of the Northerners believe is not the only education), the North is no longer left behind. In all sectors you can now find professionals and Academics of Northern extraction, through admittedly not up to the numbers you find down South. But they are there. So Why Is The North Perceived As Lagging Behind? I. There is an issue of Religion belief and Tradition which are major factors. Not because we are not capable, but we feel we shouldn't participate. For example investment in Banking, Brewery, Lottery are no go areas for a typical Northerner. Similarly Insurance, Hospitality are all taking with a pinch of salt. II. Our VALUES are different. The predominately Muslims North cannot just do anything to get appointed. Such vices as sleeping with the Boss, belonging to a Cult group or Clan, offering monetary incentive are common and predominantly practiced by Southerners just to get to the top. Again this is without discounting the limited use of such up North as bargaining tool to success. iii. The Mindset of a typical Northerner is that of someone who wants to assist. This is why it is easier for Southerners to SEEK and GET favors from Northerners than the vice-varsa. I've had Southerner friends who would often ask me to link them with someone I know to help them. If I ask them what about your people, they will reply "FORGET ABOUT THOSE PEOPLE" iv. All manners of cutting corners in Nigeria, ranging from Advance Fee Fraud, Robbery, Kidnapping, thuggery, Examination malpractices cum Miracke centers, to direct theft by trusted employees and trustees, they all originate from the South and flow Northwards. So how are you dominated? If there is anybody that didn't make the Nigerian Project a huge success, then those from the South should take a major blame along side their Northern collaborators. Now back to the Domination, I still ask how are you dominated in a Govt where you have Ministers from each state of the federation. People from the South control WORKS, INDUSTRY, HEALTH, FOREIGN AFFAIRS, LABOR TRANSPORT, CBN, PENCOM, PETROLEUM (Minister of State) How are you dominated when 40% of Nigeria's money in circulation is in Lagos alone. How are you dominated when some of you make life difficult for Northerners and even your people, such that they seek refuge in the North and never wish to return to South. No amount of Social Media campaigns will change the reality that after benefiting so much from the union of North and South, you now perceive us as liability having sacrifice a lot to make you what you are today. We from the North love you our fellow country men from the South, we do not hate you, but if for any reason you are tired of the Union, please ask your representatives to present a motion to that effect in the House.

Politics / Re: Malami Secured National Industrial Court Jobs For His Northern Protégés- Gazette by dtiBusiness: 6:04am On Jul 09, 2021 |
It is unfortunate that a section of the media is fueling this crap nonsense. If you don't like someone please at least be fair to him. For your information of #Gazettengr.com or whoever mischievously covered the grade levels on the offer letters, the appointments are junior cadre appointments which by the rules and norms, preference is given to those in the catchment area of the courts, unlike Senior appointments that are meant for every Nigerian. Pls I challenge you to do a research and show me one person from typically Kebbi state who is employed in any Federal court down South as a junior officer. Malami has proven to be an excellent Attorney General despite whatever hate you will through at him. Remember how he patriotically handled the complex PI& case?..that's just one among many Islie: |
