Seerade029: BuhariAdvocate: Good question. Besides, according to the report, North Central got Ambassadorial appointment (Niger State) so they are represented. Two of President Buhari's most trusted aides (pilot and cook) are from the SE so I don't think it's anything personal. Just politics. Congratulations to the new appointees. 2 Likes 2 Shares |
