Tinubu Draws Buhari Transition Team List by shift15(m): 9:05am On Apr 06, 2015 |
After a private meeting with President Goodluck Jonathan, the President-elect General Muhammadu Buhari may have constitute its transition team which will consist of politicians and private sector players. Buhari’s transition team, which is expected to be announced soon is expected to commence work with the presidency after the governorship and state assembly elections to ensure will focus on the smooth handover from the Jonathan administration to his administration to ensure continuity in governance. Indication however emerged that the National leader of APC, Alhaji Bola Tinubu has drawn up the list of the transition team. A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), said he was aware that Buhari wants a good mix of politicians and private sector players as members, and would likely review the list of members already drawn up by former Lagos State Governor, Senator Bola Tinubu. "I can tell you with certainty that the president-elect’s transition committee will comprise politicians and private sector members. "We are also aware that Tinubu has drawn up a list on who he would like to see on the committee, but Buhari is likely to review the list,” he said. The APC chieftain further disclosed that when the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation was set up in December, Tinubu appointed all the directors on the team until it was changed. "You would recall that we had the likes of Dele Alake, a Tinubu loyalist, appointed as Communications Director and what have you, but he was dropped for Garba Shehu a few weeks later,” he said. On Tinubu’s expectations on the transition committee and key ministerial posts in Buhari’s cabinet, the source who is of northern origin, said people close to Buhari are aware that Tinubu has zeroed in on who should be appointed to the Finance, Petroleum and Justices Ministries, among others, but would be hugely disappointed. "We are aware that he wants to recommend the Deputy Managing Director of Oando Plc, Mr. Mofe Boyo, as Minister of Petroleum Resources; his former Commissioner for Finance, Mr. Wale Edu, as Minister of Finance; and someone else for the Ministry of Justice. "But it is not clear what the final decision will be, as Buhari, though reticent and tends to keep things close to his chest, has to find the right balance between meeting the expectations of Tinubu, the five governors who defected from the PDP to APC, and members of Buhari’s team who have been with him during his 12-year quest for the presidency,” he revealed. The source also confirmed that since Buhari’s victory at the presidential election, his residence in Abuja has been besieged by hundreds of well wishers and those seeking political appointments. "They have been dropping their CVs with him. I am sure he has probably received over a thousand of them. But that is the nature of Nigerian politics,” he said. However the President elect has been warned by close associates from the North against yielding too much to Tinubu’s demands, even though the latter was the prime mover behind the merger talks that led to the emergence of a virile opposition in the form of APC. Their argument is that Buhari has already conceded the vice-presidential slot to Tinubu, and so the former Lagos governor should make his demands reasonable. It was learnt that if the realignment of northern forces behind Buhari are not handled with tact, cracks are likely to emerge in the APC sooner rather than later. http://believeafrica.net/tinubu-draws-buhari-transition-team-list-p468-114.htm |

Whether this story is true or not is immaterial, any reasonable person can deduce that something like this has a high tendency of happening. Tinubu has been hailed as the mastermind of the downfall of GEJ's govt, but the truth is there are many factors that lead to the demise of PDP at the center. They include; GEJ himself and the impunity in his govt. His aides and their utterances like okupe, Abati, FFk, associates like Fayose and wife. The merger and Buhari's cult following in the North and Yes Tinubus' steadfastness. The angry Electorate! All these came together to work in Buhari's favour. If Buhari and Tinubu had remained with their separate parties they would have lost to GEJ. The truth is Tinubu influence will have to be managed and he needs to realised that if he demands for something now and Buhari refuses, whether in transition team or ministerial list there is nothing he can do about it. My fear is by the time Buhari is settled in govt say like in one years' time his northern brothers can influence him to substantially reduce Tinubus influence and that's why Tinubu will do everything possible to get his men in a lot of juicy positions early when he has the momentum on his side. In all this sef, does Osinbajo not have any say? 1 Like |

Meanwhile Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, has read the riot act to Igbo leaders and monarchs in Lagos State, warning that he will make life unbearable for them if they sabotage efforts being made to ensure that the governorship candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC) Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode, emerges as the next governor of the state. The monarch, who summoned all the Eze-Ndigbo in the state to his palace, said the support of their kensmen for the opposition party in the state could frustrate current efforts being made in all quarters to ensure that Lagos was no longer in opposition with the Federal Government. He said: “On Saturday, if anyone of you goes against Ambode, who I picked, that is your end. If it does not happen within seven days, just know that I am a bastard and it is not my father who gave birth to me. “By the grace of God, I am the owner of Lagos for the time being. This is an undivided chair. The palace belongs to the dead and those coming in the future. On Saturday, if anyone of you, I swear in the name of God, goes against my wish that Ambode will be the next governor of Lagos State, the person is going to die inside this water. “For the Igbo and others in Lagos, they should go where the Oba of Lagos heads to. When they were coming to the state, they did not come with all their houses. But now, they have properties in the state. So they must do my bidding. And that is the bidding of the ancestors of Lagos and God. “I am not ready to beg you. Nobody knew how I picked Ambode. Jimi is my blood relation and I told him that he could never be governor in Lagos for now. The future belongs to God. I am not begging anybody, but what you people cannot do in Onitsha, Aba or anywhere you cannot do it here.” http://sunnewsonline.com/new/?p=113029 |
