Why Olusegun Aganga must not represent Lagos State in Federal Cabinet

The recent ministerial list by submitted by Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan to the senate for approval includes Olusegun Aganga as the representative for Lagos State.  The Nigerian constitution states that every state must have a representative in the federal cabinet and that means that the individual must be a son of that state.  This is why Lagosians must rally to stop the nomination of Segun Aganga because he is from Edo State and it would be a great insult to us in Lagos if he is approved.

The man performed very well in the last cabinet and if the president wants to bring him on board again, then he use let him represent his own father's state and not Lagos of all states.  Can you imagine a state has influential and powerful as Lagos not having anyone represent us in the federal cabinet?  It is a deliberate move by the northern oligarchs who are out to frustrate the south-west in general because PDP has been wiped out from our zone.

Let me know what you guys think.
