  4. He was the chairman of the NNPC anti-corruption committee during the most corrupt period of the NNPC and now he is GMD. There is a very big problem heading towards the NNPC. Total collapse due to corruption is imminent.

  6. I had to read again and again that this Mallam was the CHAIRMAN of the ANTI CORRUPTION COMMITTEE of NNPC since 2004 to date. For the President to have appointed him, it must mean he performed exceedingly WELL in that position and NNPC performed GREATLY during the said period. Guess, that explains the manner in which the president is fighting corruption with EQUALLY ANTI CORRUPTION GURUs in the EFCC. Well done Presido, you just earned my THUMBS DOWN. No sentiments...the facts speak.

  7. The president would have simply put a Southerner (either an igbo man or a Yoruba man) there since Kachukwu is from South-south. this would have reduced this perceived northernization of major government offices.
