You should also have a proof reader peruse your communiques before posting them...your communciation is clogged with too many diction errors lately..these critical blog pre requisites when neglected can pull down/distor your hard earned brand. The errors in your blog is fast becoming a pattern!!!

Frank, why are you like this? Bia, must positions critical to the nation be based on sentiments or tribe or based on the capability of the person in the post. So to satisfy your bigoted, one-sided sensitive ass, Buhari should appoint an incompetent Igbo person? Well look Frank, these are very sensitive positions, if you don't like it, take your sensitive ass to another country and leave politics to the grown-ups! Punk!

See painment? Why are you Igbo people such whining little bitches? Just a question, don't get irate and try to cut my throat like "Mama Chinedu and Rose". I'm just asking! Is there something about Igbo people that's so special? Stop playing the victim and accept what you get in political appointments and based on merit not favoritism. Stop this constant crying, it's very shameful. And to think I like my Igbo brothers and sister, but Bia, this whining and nagging is too much, Biko, stop! Bayelsa and Biafra is still there, you can make an attempt to start a new country, just leave the oil to Nigeria, I promise we won't miss you or come looking for you. Stop whining!!! Let the man do his job abeg!

The sooner you Igbo people acknowledge you are in the minority, the sooner this anger you are spewing out starts to reduce. With these kind of behavior and victims card you keep playing, nobody would dare vote an Igbo person as President. You guys are sore loosers, why? Still crying woe after how many months. Move on, you all sound so pathetic. You will not get the Yoruba votes nor will you get the Hausa votes, no man is an island, so it's either you play ball with Nigeria or you get left out. Keep on being sensitive and let's see how far it gets you, Nowhere is the answer. It gets you Nowhere!

Should the appointments be based on sentiments or qualification? All you Emekas and Ngozis need to get you head out of your asses and see that Nigeria is moving on without you. No more tribalistic appointments or favoritism like your goodluck president, it's based on qualification, merit, experience and capability to act in full capacity. So please, sit your funky asses down and shut up!

Anonymous said...

Be it that you voted Buhari or not, sensitive positions such as this requires experience and qualification. Vote or not, this is democracy at play. If an Igbo man comes with qualification for the job, I am convinced he will be considered. Nigeria needs to move forward and get right and healthy. You Igbo people need to pocket your sensitivity. It's embarrassing!!!

What is all these nonsense talk about not appointing Ibo's? . The question we should ask are
1. Are they Nigerians?
2. Are they competent to do the work?

Wasn't The COA before the last one was an IBo man who became suddenly rich in 2 years of holding the job?

Let's set aside ethnic sentiments and get the job done.

Baba Go Slow has finally appointed a Borno State man as Chief of Army Staff, I pity Nigerians. The fight against Boko Haram just got weak, how can this man order military to kill his Boko Haram brothers? When we have a man that loves Boko Haram as president. Boko Haram just got more energy and support to kill at will. Oh Nigeria,may God deliver you from the hands of the evil ones.

Thank you! If an Igbo man can do the job and do it well, abeg give him the job. But don't put anyone in key positions to fulfill and baby Igbo sentiments. That is not democracy. Some of the no Igbo comments here, has left me shocked and borderline stupefied. How did Nigeria get this bad? corruption is so rooted deep in our core, we can't see national security issues pass our bigoted sensitive asses. If its key positions, it must go to an Igbo person? Are you serious? Do you even have a brain? Do you want to risk your life and the lives of other well meaning Nigerians for Igbo political appointment? Get real! You Igbo folks are starting to become very annoying by the minute. Your true color is starting to show and I tell you what? It is very ugly almost nauseating.

Yours is a sad case of ignorance, tribalism and utmost low self esteem. The last regime, the yorubas only had two positions out of o'er 50. The chief of staff that was given a year before jonathan left and the accountant general of the federation. Yet, they didn't come out to complain as much as you guys are doing right now, when you know that there are stl several appointments to be given. Wailing Wailers!!!
