Nigerians have started reacting to the new appointments made by President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday in the following offices: SGF, Chief of Staff among others see here for full details on appointments.
I am perfectly happy for us to abandon federal character, quota system and for us to adopt devolution of power.
A true meritocracy.

I don't like federal character but I endorse it for now because it is a binding factor for the nations within the entity called #Nigeria

The only federal character I know is the character that will give me security, stamp out corruption, gimme a job & put food on my table

We need ethnic balance. Northerners must not take all the top positions.

i really dont mind if Buhari is employing Northerners or people that are dropping out of the sky. if they can put in work, who cares?

I love the Northerners for one thing, THEY ARE 2000% loyal to themselves...over-Sabi Southerners always forming highly educated & not United

– I don't really care if PMB appoints only northerners
I just want whatever he got in his manifesto to be carried out as promised

1. Buhari is a lot more comfortable with Northerners than with people from the South. You can tell by merely looking at his appointments.

Federal Character shouldn't be about political positions but about equity in the distribution of resources

Can’t speak Hausa, your President’s first language and the language of his inner circle.
