Factions In Southern Kaduna Feud Over Deputy Governor

It's amazing the way everybody in Nigeria speaks with so much authority that they do not have!!! SOKAPU youths need to learn to express themselves in ways that does not come across as being uncivilised. You may be rightly aggrieved but there are basic principles that you must respect. LOYALTY is the name of the game. The Southern Kaduna agitation should be devoid of schisms and bickering. The elders may seem to be wrong, but you have to allow them. The tone and manner of there actions speak of high-level disregard for authority. I'm a Southern Kaduna youth and will WHOLE-HEARTEDLY support the decisions of our elders. It may not be what we want today, but PERSISTENT LOYALTY makes the leader better. For young men who aspire to positions in the not-too-distant-future (signatories to the letter), remember A GOOD LEADER MUST FIRST OF ALL BE A GOOD FOLLOWER ...

Where did you get your statistics? Firstly, Southern Zazzau indigens don't exist. Secondly, ONLY the foolish will accept that a Person from Plateau State ruled in Kaduna State as Governor. If you are not convinced of your folly, name the Plateau State indigine that ruled Kaduna State.

Students were massacred in the year 2000 at Federal College of Education, Zaria. Later the same at State Poly, Zaria. The religious riots in Kaduna in 2000 et al, Kafanchan 1987, Zango 1992 where some people were pretending Southern Kaduna was an extension of their fatherland. Thank Jesus they failed and will NEVER TRIUMPH IN JESUS NAME. THIS ALL WAS A JIHAD TURNED SOUR.

I CALL THAT SUCH BAD EGGS IN THE SOCIETY SHOULD RECEIVE JESUS AS THEIR LORD AND SAVIOUR AS THE ONLY ANTIDOTE TO THEIR MURDEROUS PHILOSOPHY. JESUS SAID "I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE, NO ONE SEETH THE FATHER (JEHOVAH GOD) EXCEPT BY ME (JOHN 14:6.

Who ever is disappointed must be one ready to hug the transformer. Which study proved what you were saying? In the Holy Bible, we have even had 6-year old kings not to talk of youths.

Possibly in the place where the writer comes from, old people are more sensible in leadership. This is not the case where Southern Kaduna is concerned.

The Gowon, Ojukwu's, Theophilus Danjuma's, Dangiwa Umar's, Obasanjo's et al achieved what made them ELDER STATESMEN as youths and not old men.

This writer should be arrested not ONLY for ignorance but for infringing the rights of hearing of a group of persons.

Most people are disappointed with the inciting vituperations of Bishop Mathew Hassan Kukah during the burial of Yakowa. I believe he has incited the youth with his sentiments. I was shocked with his sentiments at a burial. The Youths should listen to their elders because in Nigeria the trend is the older generation are better than the youths in governance. But by the way in a democratic setting why should a bunch of crminialised youths parading as professionals insist on having a deputy governor of their own. They should shut up or be arrested to ensure peace.

This is a bunch of deliquent youth no wonder they dont respect their elders. I shall recount the favours of Allah on southern zaria.
Right from 1983 to 1999,Southern Zazzau indigines and Plateau indigenes dominated in the number of governors. They also dominated in the number of army officers and commanders. They are morethan proportinately represented in the civil service and professions in Kaduna state.
The crimes of a few from Southern Zazzau are also notable. The masscres of muslim students in kafanchan1987,massacres of muslims in zangon kataf 1991, the perennial massacres of muslims during national crisis and the massacres& cannibalism in 2011 in which they populated Kaduna with refugees are serious crimes against humanity that should not be swept under the carpet.

This group of youth would never be blessed if they keep on cursing their elders. We have seen what the so called youthfull politicians did for Nigeria. GEJ is a youth. is he better than OBJ?
This is a democracy you should not potray your self as stampeding the Governor because it would backfire. I believe you are looking for someone to cover the crimes of the killings you perpetrated in the aftermarth of the elections.We have seen you cannibalising the bodies of your hausa fulani victims in youtube.you will reap what you have sown.

Good to b good

@Abusadeeq: useless people?Hahahahahahahaahahahha dude get a life n learn some new english.hahahhahaha

God bless you my brother.

The Youth of souther Kaduna stand in right position to seek their position not to continue with old people who couse trouble for their selves benefits.

I SIMPLY ADVICE THE GOVERNOR TO COPY THE SYSTEM OF PLATEAU STATE.

What democracy is all about. While one may check out any age-related discrimination against the choice of an older deputy to the governor, it's also important to consider what's best for the state in the interest of equality of opportunity. What/who makes the governor confident and competent? At the end of day, antecedent, like resume, plays a part in who leads the people. Do we have somebody with credibility or we 'just' want somebody to fit the status quo?
The governor is also in a position to make a popular choice through a transparent recruitment and selection process since he is the one to work with the deputy.

Of course u pple worked hard for pdp in 2011 (manipulation). When u were killing d muslims in your areas just bcos ur man was there, but now that d ball is no more in your court u are trying to be peaceful. U stand no chance cos u are just a grp of primitive creatures in kaduna.

The new Kaduna State governor will stray

Vincent, you have spoken!!! As a youth an Southern Kaduna man I stand by your stance. There has to be a paradigm shift towards a more youthful political class.

I feel very bad reading stuffs like this.... Boys stop fighting your FATHERS just do consultations and make them see a reason from your points. And you the Babas where is the future of the average NIgerian youth? give the boys a change please.... after all many of your mates were governors at there 30s in this country.
Nigeria can be a better place with the following proposal
1. President = 50-60yrs
2. Governor = 37-47yrs
3. Senetor = 58-70yrs
4. House of Reps = 40-55yrs
5. House of Assembly = 30-45yrs
6. L.G Chairmsn = 32-42yrs
7. Councillors = 30-35yrs
My fellow good country loving people how about this?
I RAISE MY CASE

I want them to give the post to Honorable Abokie Galadima. Not that I know him personally, but because his name Aboki is music to my ears. And from the look of things Aboki Galadima is a good man.

They are telling us how they believe in democracy, yet in the same breath want only their candidates to be considered. Nigeria is truly a funny country. Jokers come a dime a dozen. Why not the best qualified person but then this is Nigeria were political offices are ascended to by thuggery or fraud. The demand that the candidates should only be of a certain age without mentioning qualification shows the narrow mindeness of Nigerians in general. Yet we wonder why Nigeria won't progress.

I support these youths 100%. We know need old people in power again. We want the younger ones. Don't allow those old hags to represent you guys anymore. Enough is enough

The request sent to Kaduna State Governor for a youth as Deputy Governor is very legitimate and should be given due consideration. I support!!

That is not possible

Voice of Jacob and hands of Esau indeed. So these three people are the only qualified Yourh in Southern Kaduna. Am really disappointed that these so called Youth of Southern Kaduna have again and as usual are allowing themselves to be used by people who do not mean well for the State. Please allow the new Governor to select somebody he can work with not people with predetermined, selfish and unpatriotic agenda.

Would you make Kaduna state ungovernable for Mr. Yero if he choses someone else other than the three you listed above? Please my good people of Southern Kaduna, don't emulate Mr. Buhari by threatening to unleash meyhem if none of your candidates are chosen. Also, do not subscribe to Mr. Obasanjo's do or die politics syndrom.

As for Mr. Mohamed Sambo, get your sh@#$%t off of Southern Kaduna politics. Who knew that Mr. Sambo's first name was Mohammed until recently. Vice President Mohammed Sambo had been fingered by Mr. Ndume (when Mr. Ndume was initially caught) as being privy to Boko Haram activities.

It is unfortunate that while we are still mourning the sudden death of our dear executive governor Yakowa the political vultures are busy scheming about who becomes a deputy governor from the southern senatorial zone!
And all they have to bandy around is the age factor not what they did to their zone while they were in the corridors of power. what a shame. they are not interested in telling us how they improved the living standards of the people they claim to represent while they were ministers,house of representatives members,or attorney general and commissioners of justice in kaduna state. we are entertained by their tricks and intrigues but we are not amused.

The youths are truely d hopeful future of d state. Let us analyze those nominees and be sure the candidates would have cordial working relationship with the governor in the interest of the state. Afterall the governor would reason more with his age bracket.

Who are you to nominate names to the governor? What do you mean by cpying letter to GEJ? Is GEJ God or what? All we know is the governor has the right to choose whoever he wishes. Neither elders nor youths has the right to impose any trash to him. Why naming Reverend among your candidates. True Reverend should be in Churches not in this dirty politics. So we the entire youths of both north, South, East, Central and western Kaduna are against any list, provided it is not the wish of the governor. We are not after any youth. Was Bankole not a youth? Is GEJ not a youth? Look at how they are looting Nigerians' money. Common shut up!

we tired of this southan kaduna peoples stupidity. are you the one to tell the governo what to do to his people or what? Your puppet (yakuwa) isn't there anymore, so please leave peoples governo..FOOLZ.
