A NIGERIA THAT HAS BEEN CONQUERED A NORTHERN CONQUEST? By Ikechukwu Obi With the recent appointment of a new Inspector-General of Police, Nigeria's entire security architecture took on a distinct sectional shape. Take a look. 1) Defence Minister - Mansur Dan-Ali - North.- Muslim 2) DG DSS - Mamman Daura - North- Muslim 3) Chief of Army Staff - Tukur Buratai - North- Muslim 4) Chief of Air Staff - Abubakar Sadique - North- Muslim 5) IG of Police - Ibrahim Idris - North-Muslim 6) NSA - Babagana Monguno - North - Muslim 7) CG Immigration - Muhammed Babandede - North - Muslim ![]() 9) CG Prison - Ahmed Jafaru - North - Muslim 10) CG Custom - Hamid Ali - North - Muslim 11) Chair, EFCC - Ibrahim Magu - North - Muslim Save for the Chief of Defence Staff (a Yoruba) and the Chief of Naval Staff (from Cross River), Nigeria's entire defence structure with its command and control systems is controlled by one section of the country. Save for the Navy (whose operations, of course, are mainly coastal), Northern Muslims command every security organization where men lawfully bear arms in Nigeria. But no matter how alarming this may seem, the one-sidedness isn't even my own fear...I have worse fears. My greatest fear in the Nigeria that is unravelling before our very eyes are those Nigerians who see these alarming signs but choose to keep quiet or pretend like it's normal. Reminds me of Albert Speer, an architect, Hitler's chief Minister of War Production, an intellectual who truly believed Nazi ideals but pretended he didn't know a Holocaust was being perpetrated by the regime he served with his brains and considerable talent. It was people like Albert Speer who helped prop up their Third Reich till the last Nazi shrieked his last curse in 1945. Those who see clear signs and pretend otherwise are a real danger. Very interestingly, it was in this same Nazi reign that Martin Niemoller wrote his now world famous rebuke against the cowardice of German intellectuals during the rise of the Nazi party: "First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me." MAY GOD SAVE NIGERIA! 8 Likes 3 Shares |

Its not we didn't know that Buhari would 'Northernise' Government. There is no surprise there. Buhari is one of the 'Murtala Boys' who who's life mission it has been to keep the core North in control of political power in Nigeria. They have been conducting coups since 1966 to the 90's. I laugh at people who think that Buhari is a detribalised Nigerian who loves Nigeria. Buhari's main reason for coming back was to protect Northern interests. 2 Likes |

refiner: You just lost my vote. Why? - For being so insensitive to sensitive issues. - For talking where you should be thinking. - For playing down a matter that borders on national security. - For sacrificing equity on the altar of political correctness. These are not the attributes I expect from my queen. Sorry. 3 Likes |

No, on the contrary, you lost my vote because you lack the capacity to hold down a bit, think deeper, reflect on issues, before talking. Your knee jerk response to losing my vote just illustrates what I'm saying. No, we don't have to agree on everything. So you lost my vote not because of disagreement, but because of your insensitivity and inability to REFLECT on issues before talking. You think you love Nigeria, but no, you don't. When you do, you'd let every color and shade of her diversity shine without repression. But I do not expect you to understand that. What I do ecpect you to understand is that a queen ought to be a bridge builder, which your statement shows you're not. Okay, let's say you responded too quickly. Given. But how about now that your insensitivity is pointed out, have you done anything remotely related to reflecting deeper on my points? Have you really taken time to THINK about the reasons I gave? What else have you done in response to my points other than throwing up baseless political innuendos and funny assumptions? refiner: |

refiner: Do you honestly believe that the North, the way that it is now, is the home of the majority of these so called 'competent hands'? You do realize that Northern Nigeria has some of the worst human indices on earth. |

mmsen: We are on the same shoes Sir... I was only advocating that the selection process should cover a wider region... Not just being a Northern thing... We have capable hand, East, South West.... They are welcomed on board... |
