Ok

Another Yorubaa. The problem with Yorubaa people is they lack foresight when doing things, they think they are wise and strategic. Lord Luggard even said that they are so selfish to their own detriment. Tinuubu has been appointing mostly Yorubaas to all majors positions, he's doing this not knowing this is not Lagos. Northerners are watching, SE and SS are also watching. When the time comes, Northerners know whatever they do, SE and SS will not interfere. If Tinubuu was smart, he would have given SS more positions, even more than Yorubaa, because those will be your core support base. This what Asari Dokubo was trying to say in his last video, you need a strong support base to run this country, otherwise you won't last. GEJ had two strong support base in SS and SE. Buhari had core North as his support base which is big enough. Tinuubu now has only SW has his support, which is not enough if you are from the south, you need at least two, SW alone cannot help you. It's obvious SE can never support him even if he give them 200 billion because they vote on principle and stand by it, but SS he can buy given the oil, pipeline contracts and militant groups. Just my advice to him.

Okay

It appears that there are more Northerners on the list. Somewhat lopsided.
Yes, there should be more SS people on the list but there are other oil related agencies. Probably they have more positions across board.

What gives you the wild idea that the North is not in support of Tinubu?

You’re sleeping on a bicycle.

Congratulations to Engr Mele Kyari.. his hardwork and dedication saw him through.

All the best to the new NNPC team.

The Fulani cabals are well represented, although the Yorubas are managing to get one or two fingers into the main cookie pot. Igbos and the rest of the minority; nothing for una.

He has shown him the cesspit of corruption buhari chopped billions of dollars from because he knows Tinubu greed is insatiable and tinubu soft pedaled for him…if you are expecting a better Nigeria from tinubu..look at yourself in the mirror, knock yourself seven times on the head and call yourself big mumu

Ledum Mitee is there.
When Ledum Mitee was suffering for agitating for the Niger Delta and Abacha almost killed him along with Saro Wiwa, what were you akpu-chewing baboons doing?

Was Daniel Kanu your kinsman not campaigning for Abacha to become Life President?

CHIEF Pius was president Tinubu boss at ExxonMobil.

You are talking to someone whose region has been on the political losing side for the past 3 Presidential elections. You can't expect him to understand the workings of politics.
The only thing they are good at is failing politically.

He is very competent for the job!

One of a kind.

Fulani and Yoruba who are not major producers of oil and who don't experience major ecological devastation of oil exploration are given major positions in the oil industry.

Asari Dokubo, the oil pipeline guard,where are you ?
What my South South brothers are good for ,is to guard pipelines that transfer our oil to South West and Northern NIgeria .
What a shame to the so called South South wise men ? Always ready to kill one another because of crumbs from slave masters , instead of fighting to control their God given resources .

Akpu fool of Biafra. There are 5 people from the Niger Delta there.

If they say you should come out on Monday and collect appointment letter, how many people from your place fit come out?

He must have confidence in Mele Kyari.

Everyone should contribute their quota to renew the the hope and promise of Nigeria.
