“Welcome to change” – Fani-Kayode says Buhari favouring North in his appointments, mocks Nigerians

Former Aviation minister, Femi Fani-Kayode has reacted to the latest appointments made by President Muhammadu Buhari, which favoured only the North.

Buhari’s appointment of SGF and other principal positions on Thursday have continued to receive backlash across the country, even within his party, the All Progressives Congress, APC.

Reacting to the development, Fani-Kayode, who served as the Peoples Democratic Party’s spokesperson during the last presidential elections said he had predicted such actions but that Nigerians insulted and lampooned him.

He wrote on his Facebook page: “NIGERIANS WANTED ‘CHANGE’ AND NOW WE HAVE GOT IT. NO-ONE SHOULD COMPLAIN BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT OUR PEOPLE WANTED. THOSE OF US THAT WARNED THE COUNTRY THAT THIS WOULD HAPPEN WERE INSULTED AND LAMPOONED. NOW WE HAVE TO LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENCES OF OUR CHOICE FOR THE NEXT FOUR YEARS. WELCOME TO THE NEW NIGERIA. WELCOME TO ‘CHANGE’

To prove his point, he chronicled the occupants of key positions in the country, including all the appointments Buhari had made so far, showing a total neglect of the Southern part of the country.
