Why Buhari Appointed A Northern Muslim As DSS DG — Fani-Kayode

Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has reacted to the recent appointment of the new Director-General of Department of State Security by President Muhammadu Buhari.

Buhari in a statement through his Spokesman, Garba Shehu, revealed the appointment of the new Director General of the DSS, Yusuf Magaji Bichi.

Magaji will be replacing Matthew Seiyeifa, as DG who has been operating in an acting capacity since Lawal Daura was dismissed.

Fani Kayode while reacting to the news on his twitter account stated that the appointment of Yusuf Magaji as the new DSS DG confirms Buhari’s agenda to Islamise Nigeria.

According to him, the appointment shows that Buhari cannot trust any southerner or Christian to hold any sensitive positions.

He wrote: “I congratulate President Muhammadu Buhari for proving me right once again by appointing yet another northern Muslim to head the DSS and for refusing to appoint a Southerner and a Christian.

“For the last 3 years every single security and intelligence agency in our nation and every branch of our Armed Forces apart from the Navy has been headed by a northern Muslim.

“As far as Buhari is concerned no southerner and no Christian is competent enough or can be trusted enough to hold any of those critical and sensitive positions.
