Politics / Re: Amaechi's Ministerial Nomination: Buhari Government Has Failed The Moral Test by jumpandpass: 10:53pm On Oct 10, 2015
[color=#006600][/color]
TonyeBarcanista:
Should Amaechi be cleared as minister of the federal republic of Nigeria? Just like the 8th Senate did for Saraki, Buhari's decision to nominate Amaechi was influenced by political consideration without regard for his integrity/antecedent.

Buhari Elevates Politics Over Principle:
While I recognise the prerogative of President Buhari to appoint men and women that he considers worthy enough to form his cabinet, I beg to ask whether the President was in a trance when he pledged to appoint only people of credible character when elected. His recent nomination of messrs Rotimi Amaechi and Raji Fashola betrays his pre-electoral position on appointing "only" credible characters into his administration. Though Amaechi and Fashola are yet to be charged before a court nor convicted, morality demands that they be allowed to FIRST clear all allegations against them either through being certified 'Innocent' by the investigators or through the courts(if they are indeed innocent) before given new political responsibilities. Buhari's nomination of these men (and others) despite the allegations against them is a testament that he upholds politics over principle.

Who Is The 8th Senate Trying To Impress?
I burst into laughter when Senate spokesman Otunba Dino Malaye was reading out conditions for screening. I laughed more when he mentioned 'Asset Declaration' and 'thorough scrutiny'. What does the 8th Senate want to do with the asset declaration of ministerian nominees when they (senators) are yet to publicly declare there own asset before the public? Are they not the same people that are led by a man that is currently undergoing criminal trial before the Code of Conduct Tribunal for declaring false asset before CCB? What thorough scrutiny will the 8th Senate subject the ministerial nominees to when only two weeks ago they passed vote of confidence on a man that is undergoing criminal trial? What question will SP Saraki ask would-be ministers? What moral legitimacy does the 8th Senate have to reject a nominee on account of alleged corruption when only recently they passed vote of confidence on their President that is an alleged criminal? Who are they trying to impress?

Kudos To Senator Sekibo But...:
My position on Amaechi is very clear, he's morally unfit to represent Rivers state in the Federal Executive Council until he is cleared of all allegations against him. I sincerely commend my very own senator, George Sekibo for submitting petitions to the Senate on behalf of the ever loving people of Rivers state. But I have to admit that I don't see the petition scaling through for two reasons; One, the President is well aware of these allegations but he has shown that he doesn't care; Two, the 8th Senate is led by an alleged corrupt official that is presently under trial before a tribunal. There is the burden of moral legitimacy hanging on their neck. However, Amaechi's confirmation or otherwise cannot invalidate the allegations against him.

Nigerians Must Decide Where They Stand:
Nigerians are a special set of people. The people that went on protest in solidarity of Tinubu when he was being tried before the CCT, are the same group that were mocking a certain group that were protesting and showing Solidarity for the alleged corrupt Bukola Saraki. The group of people that were insisting that Saraki should not be tried for corruption is the same group that is crying that Amaechi and co should not be cleared due to the corruption allegation on their neck. The group that was calling for the head of Princess Oduah when she spent N260million on TWO cars in 2013 is the same group that defended Fashola for spending N78million on personal website. The group that defended Oduah then is the same group that has been calling for Fashola's head. Are both groups not confused and contradicting themselves? Is it proper to support misconduct when it suits us and oppose same when it doesn't? It is time for us as a people to define what we want and what we stand for.

Finally, by nominating Rotimi Amaechi and other people of questionable characters to serve as ministers of his government, President Buhari has betrayed the public confidence that was reposed on him on March 28. Like his predecessors, he has shown that he is ever ready to 'suspend' his principles in order to reward political allies. Indeed, President Muhammadu Buhari belongs to some people, he doesn't belong to everybody.



May God Bless Us All
My position exactly.
I don't understand why Nigerians are like this.

Nonsense. Why not do the right thing when you know you wouldn't like to be criticised? Only God knows the kind of idiots ruling us in this nation. They know what is right but refuse to do it,and still do not want you to talk about it. The relationship between the Nigerian citizens and the different levels of govts in Nigeria,can be likened to the relationship between a man that is possessed and under demonic oppression. The demon doesn't do him any good,and also refuses to leave him alone but gets angry when a man of God tries to set the victim free. This is the position Nigerians and her govts,find themselves in.

This is not too good...It's not today comprehension passages x-ray happenings in the society...asides examining the students.. it keeps them abreast of the things around them...morally, academically and otherwise. Mistaking these roles as painting the government of the day black is Unacceptable... Governor Amosun should rescind his actions..Please Sir
There should be no pleading to governor Amosun.
He got it wrong and he must be pressured to redress this matter. Every well meaning Nigerian should speak against this kind of oppression in a clear and dispassionate voice.

Which village did Sahara recruit it's reporters from?

Bunch of unprofessional goats who does not know the definition of journalism.

Am even more pissed off with some silly individuals who will come on this page to celebrate stupidity out of hatred.

We need to learn to draw a bold line between what is wrong and silly emotions
Yea.
I think sahara reporters just crossed the line.

Imagine that Yorubas are contended that out of the first 15 appointments, the only thing they're worthy of is spokesman while the rest went to north.
For them as long as Igbos don't get any, they're happy with any crumbs from the masters table.
4appointments for the whole of south and Yorubas are having orgasm

#shrugs#

It's such a shame and so much for the change warriors. The truth is that whoever sees nothing wrong in this current progression of things is either a hypocrite or a slave.

Time will tell...

If Emefiele, Okonjo Iweala and Pat Utomi can be classified as Igbos,I don't see why Ibe Kachikwu can't be Igbo.


Congrats to Ndi Igbo for this meriting appointment by our darling president.

Go and seat down!
I'm yet to hear any Igbo person say Kachikwu is not Igbo. It's been bigots like you who vomit such nonsense. Shameless...
