Ex-Kaduna Military Governor Accuses Buhari Of Making Lopsided Appointments

A former Military Governor of Kaduna State, Retired Colonel Dangiwar Umar, has criticised President Muhammadu Buhari over alleged nepotism.

Colonel Umar insisted that the practice of favouring a section of the country than another should be discouraged and called on the President to have a rethink and balance his appointments. Mr. President, you know me well enough and my position on issues to realize that I can be neither a rabid supporter nor a fanatical opponent of yours. I believe being a responsible citizen is enough reason to wish you well and to work for your success. As we have seen all too clearly these past few years, your success is ours as is your failure. We swim or sink with you!

On the same occasion, I counselled the declared winner, your good self, to use the opportunity of your second term to redeem your pledge of being a leader and president of all Nigerians. The corollary to this is that at the expiration of your 8-year tenure in 2023, your achievements will not be measured solely by the physical infrastructure your administration built. An enduring legacy would be based on those intangible things like how much you uplifted the spirit and moral tone of the nation. How well have you secured the nation from ourselves and from external enemies?

The first three were senior to Maimalari but he was deemed to be more qualified due to his superior commission. He was the first Sandhurst Regular trained officer in the Nigerian Army. His being a Muslim Northerner like the Minister of Defense, Alhaji Muhammadu Ribadu, and the Prime Minister, Alhaji Abubakar Tafawa Balewa granted him added advantage by today’s standards.

Shehu was promoted two steps up to the rank of Brigadier and appointed Chief of Staff SHQ and Deputy Commander-in-Chief. Lt. Col. Muhammadu Buhari was appointed Minister of Petroleum. This was done to placate Muslim North which was deemed to have lost one of its own, Murtala Muhammed.

na today?

Pls no one should stand by the ex kaduna military man,they now see the time is fast running and 2023 is far approaching they want to play trick like some are neutral so they can gain appointment from the incoming southern president which is unknown to man .

Truth speaks otherwise. Media war is killing the gullibles in Nigeria.

The fact.

The letter is meant for a wise man, unfortunately MBuhari is far from understanding the context.

We all know...I guess the ex military governor is just realizing it now

Let's pray he listen.

Did he just come back from comma? Did MBuhari just started this?

Governor or administrator?

He's a man of integrity.

WeAreTired of a tribalistic president

Yes that's true, very Soon truth whould be reviled
