Charanchi stated that while he supports appointments based on merit, capability, and willingness to serve the nation effectively, he remains skeptical about the competence of many individuals appointed by the president. “I believe that whoever can deliver should be brought on board, irrespective of religion or ethnicity,” he said. However, he questioned whether the appointees truly represent the best talent the north has to offer.
He argued that the president’s appointments appear to prioritize personal and political alliances over regional representation. “In as much as [the appointees] are not the best people that northern Nigeria can bring, then Tinubu is not rewarding the north. Rather, he’s rewarding his northern friends,” Charanchi remarked.
He further criticized the limited allocation of ministries to the north and doubted the capacity of those leading them to bring about meaningful change. Charanchi emphasized that if the president genuinely intends to reflect northern representation, he should allow the region to present its best candidates.
“The reality is that all the appointments are lopsided. Those people manning the affairs of the country cannot move this nation forward,” he added, expressing concern that political interests are taking precedence over national development.
Charanchi’s remarks highlight ongoing debates about inclusivity and meritocracy in the administration’s decision-making process, with many calling for a more balanced and competence-driven approach.READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>
