appointing northerners left, right and centre.

otokx:
With these appointments, APC will find it difficult to win elections in Bayelsa.

So in your mind, APC would have won elections in Bayelsa?

Keep allowing yourself get deceived...

and here is the change!! one side of the country is more credible, has more saints, more intelligent, more confident, etc than the other sides. That's Sai Buhari!! for you. During his military rule, he jailed most of the southerners and kept the northern ones in house arrest. he wont even mind jailing any southern man that roll out cash to sponsor him and kept the northern ones in house arrest again is it now he will change? so you guys complaining now. pls go and sit on hot pressing iron. Just the Beginning.

megabyte2:
so you mean there are no other people capable of doing the job in other geopolitical region?

there are, the appointments have not all been made, concluding its one sided is rather presumptous

Keep talking with your anus
Wonder how this silly comment relates the issue being discussed.

hotwax:


Come to Lagos and count the number of Igbos and Hausas

coldFLARES1:
I am profoundly appalled at this man's appointments that can not be seen to be fair. For me, the only zone that could be justifiably excluded is the south-east, because aside grandstanding about not wanting inclusion, they are the only people who adulate crime; rever criminals; are quick to rise in solidarity with their folks who are indicted for crimes, and as such should be given the chance to pursue their seccessionist agenda. Buhari was such a waste of my precious one vote!

Continue deceiving yourself and hating on people who don't give a hoot about you. So the lion of burdillion who y'all worship is not a thieving criminal/politician and a past drug lord, kwo?

Fashola who y'all been shielding is not a looter kwo, considering the two boreholes of #139million and a 20k website tabled at #78million?

I believe Aregbese is a saint too kwo?

By the way, how come the same people you ascribe this nonsense to have produced the best set of governors (Obiano and Peter Obi) amidst little IGR and allocation? One of the best democrats, in the person of Dora Akunyili (RIP our dearest)? Best CBN governor in the person of Soludo? And so many more.

Well I have this song for you:

You don't have to say, what you did,
I already know, I found out from him
Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be
And don't it make you sad about it

You told me you loved me
Why did you leave me, all alone
Now you tell me you need me
When you call me, on the phone
Girl I refuse, you must have me confused
With some other guy
Your bridges were burned, and now it's your turn
To wail, wail me a river
Wail me a river-er
Wail me a river
Wail me a river-er, yea yea

Before I would make any comment about these appointments can someone help find out about the lifestyle of the new appointees. I read the new oga of Customs still uses or drives a Peugeot 504.

Even though it is entirely wrong for PMB to restrict his appointment to the north, the outcry is loudest for all those that have always seen appointment as an avenue to come and chop. Let's politics and political appointment be constitutional changed to a situation where you don't get paid and your services are for free. I bet you nobody especially from our zone would be interested. So my take as far as I have seen a pastor amongst those being appointed then there is hope.

But one last question would it really matter where the appointees are from? What if we start seeing real development in the country?

bros hahahahahahah.

So you are among those that believe that all pastors are angels.
Hahahahahahah....

Chai when some pastors are turning their churches to business ventures and their female members to their sexual partners..

Being a pastor has almost nothing to do with being a good christian...

tired of this whole saga/....buharis appointments are two faced...if the persons appointed are competent then it is good...but the other face is that buhari might be telling us that the north is a custodian of honest persons while the other regions breed dishonest people..reason why i think nigeria as a country should cease to exist...let the sincere holy northerners rule themselves and stop dragging the rest of the country with them.....

hinwazaka:

So if in your workplace(assuming you are employed), the CEO, CIO, CFO, COO are all from the same geographical region, you would be cool with it. Nothing in the CV of the appointees points them out as a first among the rest. so why were they selected, from the chaff, without recourse to the federal character principle.

is the company performing? if yes, then your guess is as good as mine, performance is key, never forget that

smuth:


Some people are so daft and stupid at the same time...your blind love for dullard.dinho makes you reject your people to favor the north... Are you a bastard?...are you telling everybody that there is nobody qualified or credible in your state, region or village...are Ye all corrupt bunch in your tribe that you now trust the north to save you? The excuse you now give is 'as long as they do the job well, you have no problem if they are all from the north' so in the whole of your state nobody fit do the job well? You should be ashamed of yourself sey all of una for that state no get sense...na north sense dey now abi?

baba wnt 2wrk wt d ppl he trust simple. Wen jona had trust in tompolo he gave a contract wch d nigeria navi can do. Stll notin hapend so plzzz make wuna park well make baba do him wrku

peppyluv02:
The new SSA on National Assembly matters Kawu Sumaila aka John cena

Hahahaha! These are d saints, our angel buhari (s.a.w) appoints .

Hahahaha, can't stop laughing at yoloba's folly.

francizy:
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!

Midolian, Passingshot, Gbawe, egift, berem, demdem, aresa, una gudu morning oh!!!

[b]Nothing is wrong with the appointments so far IMO and far many appointments are still yet to be made so i wonder why and where this noise is coming from. This appoitment followed almost the same pathern when Jonah-daft was in charge and if it didnt generate so much noise then why now if not for some shameless loosers who will not allow us to hear word.
Lets compare and contrast the occupiers of these positions when Jonah-daft was in charge with what the General has done

Jonah-Daft (Southerner)
1) SSG - Anyim (South)
2) Chief of staff - Oghiadome and Arogbofa (South)
3) DG SSS - Ita Ekpeyong (South)
4) Accountant General - Jonah Otunla (South)
4) CSO - Gordon Obua (South)
5) Protocol - Waziri (North)
6) ADC - Ojogbane (North)
7) Media - Abati, Okupe (South, South)

Buhari (Northerner)
1) SSG - Babachir David Lawal (North)
2) Chief of staff - Abba Kyari (North)
3) DG SSS - Lawal Daura (North)
4) Accountant General - Ahmed Idris (North)
4) CSO - Abdulrahman Mani (North)
5) Protocol - Abdullahi Kazaure (North)
6) ADC - Abubakar (North)
7) Media - Garba, Adeshina (North,South)

For Customs, considering how corrupt the sector is and its importance to the Nigerian economy now that Oil price is down, Buhari only brought in a strong man with antecedents that we all thought was going to be EFCC chair. Proceeds from customs will be tabled before FIRS and guess what, Fowler ( A southerner) has been appointed.

For immigration, he is simply the most senior DCG so it was simply a succession.

For Special asistances for National assembly, Only fools will question that. Thats Buharis call.

Seriously, its disgusting that i am forced to be talking about tribes instead of competence. This was part of Jonah-daft legacy. Useless man.[/b]

Funjosh:
so, which region did he pull more votes that make him the president

Which region do we have the highest number of states

Which region do we have the highest population

Then he should have refused to be sworn in as the president of Nigeria since he was not generally accepted. But since he has agreed to be president of all, he should be president of all. Let wait and see how his appointees will go to the south to get citizen participation in governance.

then we should kill the quota system n d federal character

You have no point here, you decided to sell your land and we exchanged money for land and you are here doing akuko ifo, the coexistence is all about symbiosis, its not lopsided, may I know where they don't sell land in the Eastcoast because you are not an Igbo man?

hotwax:


We gave them free hand...We sell our Lands to them...we show them love...we co-existed with them.

I know of a place in East where they wont even sell you lands if they know you are Yoruba

free hand ko freewill ni

sylvar02:
em just start

DEM DON ENTER ONE CHANCE.

prof12:
PLS MY FELLOW NIGERIANS I BELIEVE THAT RELIGION OR REGION SHOULDN'T BE PARAMOUNT IN TERMS OF APPOINTMENTS.
WHAT WE SHOULD BOTHER OURSELVES WITH IS PEOPLE OF GOOD MANAGERIAL THOUGHTS AND THOSE THAT HAVE ZERO TOLERANCE FOR CORRUPTION ESPECIALLY IN THE SITUATION WE NIGERIANS FIND OURSELVES TODAY.

Is it possible to attain a corrupt free society??

The yourba's don turn to wailers, una never see something
Sai baaba, one thing I know about the ibos is that you will always know where they stand but with our South western brothers.. The case is different
Saiii baba

Is driving 504 a criteria for integrity?
If so some men in South-South are still driving beetle, let him come and get them for appointment.

Hehehehehehehehehehe

You don't know dickdastardly , He's a die hard Jonathan supporter, Don't mind him, he was only being sarcastic.

mhbabanna:
I'm a die hard supporter and believer of PMB and also a northener. But I'm also a bit disturbed at least Amaechi shld have been made SGF.
There is one southerner if not well compensated by PMB then even humanity would not forgive him and that's Amaechi.
Yh he is corrupt just like every other politician in our society today but he was one of the people that made the change possible. One good turn deserves another.

sorry bro buhari knows that Amaechi is a judas iscariot who can betray his own brothers not to talk of a mere political leader...
In fact he can betray anyone...
We are living in a dog eat dog world. What comes around goes around... Very soon tinubu will be completely irrelevant in the scheme of things...

HerexG:
Once beaten twice shy

What happened to him in his past regime shouldn't repeat itself

So he has to work with those he is comfortable with and trust to an extent, whether they come from The East, West, North or South .

Guy sharap..

This write up is false. No APC leader will speak to Nairaland. They have not spoken to Punch, Channel TV is it Nairaland they will confide in?
The question here is, are the Igbos expecting PMB to appoint more of Igbos around him? No way. Now they are talking about marginalization, but when they were casting their votes they did not think of that. Do you expect PMB to appoint more from the region he got vote less? You must be a politician to answer my questions. Politics is a game of Numbers. All this years Federal Character was considered, where has it gotten us to? Besides he appointed Christians from the minority side of the North and A PDP member from the South South as Senior Special adviser.
PMB has told Nigeria that CHANGE is what he believe in. That means things will be done different from the usual ways for the progress of the country. He also told Nigerians that He belong to Nobody but everybody. That means he will not look faces to appoint, make decisions and consider sentiments of any kind which is inline with the Oat of Office he took. I stand to be corrected
I so submit

nwigwemark:
As an Igbo man, nothing concern me, afterall i didnt vote for him. I warned my ofe mmanu brothers but they wouldnt listen and now they are complaining. They yorubas tot they know politics, i am still laughing, Make una no worry, JAGABAN is still there, he will do something, FOOLS

yes jagaban is doing something thats SIDON LOOK... lol.

eleojo23:
The wailing has reached APC too.
Wailing wailers are beginning to emerge from APC.

I wonder why they are suddenly beginning to wail.
Were they not the ones who gave him the presidential ticket and support?
Abeg, they should continue chanting 'Sai Baba' as they have always done.

You want to finish me with laugh.
Am not surprise at all concerning Buhari's action. Am never his fans because l cant remember him presenting visionary manifesto to us before we headed to the poll. Since he is still in charge lets just pray that the next four years runs faster.
May God help him.

dougivilla:
So the northerners that have held sway for almost 40 years of our national life did better for their own people or even for the nation? I pity some of u?

abacha and ibb were northerners, these two folks.. Hehehehe wetin dem do we all knew how it went down....

Dollyak:
Not surprised. Ideally, the best thing is to wait till the end of his tenure before judging his appointments. However, northerners can never accept this type of marginalisation, which is why most southerners are angry. Anyways, what matters is good governance.

gbam you spoke it all

Nelkoko:
Wrong headline.......it shld read like dis......YORUBA APC LEADERS ANGRY WITH NORTHERN APC LEADERS OVER DIA SLAVE MASTERS APPOINTMENT.....

[/b][b]

[b]Further look at the oil sector (The soul of Nigeria) which Buhari has also made serious appointments suggest to me that the Northern Agenda he is being accused of lack substance.............

NNPC MD - Kachikwu (South)
GED Exploration - Dr BAru (North)
GED Finace - Isiaka Abdulrazaq (SOuth)
GED Refining - Dennis Nnamdi (South)
GED Commercial - Victor Ade (South)

Take note: Out of 4 available GEDs, Buhari appointed 3 from the south.

Lets go down to the Business Units of the soul of our nation

GGM, Secratary and legal adviser - Chidi Momah (SOuth)
DG PPMC - Esther Nnamdi (SOuth)
MD Warri refining - Chinedu Ezenibe (South)
MD NGC - Babatunde Bakare (South)
MD Hyson - Ibrahim Waya (North)
MD NPDC - Mai Bornu (North)
MD NNPC Retail - Ladipo Fagbola (SOuth)
MD IDSL - Roland Ewubare (South)
MD NNPC Properties - Modupe Bemeke (SOuth)
MD Duke Oil - Abdulkadir Saidu (North)
NAPIMS - Dafe Sejebor (*Homework*)

Kindly recollect that in the opening post, the OP only mentioned DPR ignoring all these new appointees from General Buhari. Where are those fools still shouting Northern Agenda?[/b]
