Meanwhile, the nomination has been greeted by Nigerians with mixed feeling, as some Nigerians praised the nomination, others feared the power of dominance.

I am a critic of President @MBuhari because I believe he is inept, and tribalistic. However, when he does well, I must commend him. In nominating Godwin Emefiele for a 2nd term, Buhari showed he is listening and is slowly shedding his clannish nature. For that, I commend him.

@PaulWallace123, I think you owe President Buhari an apology for some of your previous analysis on this issue. I also hope you will, in the future, show more restraint on issues like these
