President Buhari gives hint on ministerial list
President Muhammadu Buhari has reportedly hinted that he may retain some ministers to serve in his new cabinet.
President Buhari’s second term in office is expected to begin on Wednesday, May 29.
In a special interview aired on the Nigeria Television Authority, the president said he was considering whether some “would stay” following the submission of their performance report.
The president also promised to be tougher on incompetent officials in the security sector.
“I will find out who is responsible” where they are not efficient, he said.
Meanwhile, All Progressives Congress (APC) leaders in Akwa Ibom state have reportedly written a protest letter to President Muhammadu Buhari, rejecting the listing of Senator Godswill Akpabio for ministerial appointment.
The APC leaders under a group tagged Ibom Integrity & Servant Leadership Culture Initiative said that such appointment is an invitation to crisis in the state.
According to Leadership newspaper, they claimed that the poor representation of APC in Akwa Ibom state in the last general election was largely due to the destabilising and authoritarian tendencies of Senator Akpabio.
The letter titled Ministerial Appointment: Why Appointing Akpabio May be Counter Productive, was signed by the executive vice president of the group, Dr Asuquo Edidem Etim.
