South-East Nigerians Complain About Buhari Running A Northern Government

Prominent groups in the South east and South west of Nigeria 

have voiced their concerns over the appointments made by 

President Muhmammadu Buhari so far.

They describe it as being lopsided as it seems to favour the 

Northern parts of the country. 

President Buhari has so far appointed 9 individuals into different 

positions since assuming office, 8 out of the 9 appointees are 

from the northern part of the country.

In the South west, the groups that have expressed their 

concerns so far are the Afenifere, Yoruba Unity Forum (YUF) 

and the Movement for Oodua Republic (MOR), while in the 

South east, the groups are Ohaneze Ndigbo, The Igbo World 

Union, Njiko Igbo Group and the Ohaneze Youth Council (OYC).

Speaking with Punch, they claim that this kind of lopsided 

appointments has never happened in the political history of 

the country.
