Presidency explains why Buhari is yet to appoint Ministers

By Ameh Comrade Godwin



The Presidency has explained why President Muhammadu Buhari is yet to unveil his ministerial nominees.

It was widely reported that shortly before Buhari mounted the number one seat on May 29, he had reportedly rejected plans by governors of the All Progressives Congress to submit ministerial nominees to him.

Clearing the air on the controversy, a Senior Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, called on Nigerians to give the new president time.

Speaking with SarahaTV, Shehu recalled that after the 2011 elections, many South-West governors took several months to form their governments.

He said, “The President did say he would hit the ground running, but he has not been given the chance to hit the ground running because the administration that he succeeded — the Jonathan administration — did not deliver the handover notes until two or three days to the inauguration, meaning that these handover notes were submitted at a time when everyone had been consumed by (inauguration) activities.

“Unfortunately, there was no time to look at them until after the President had been inaugurated. The President was left in the dark. He had to understand what the situation was and what was on the ground. That was why he set up a different transition committee. It was only this week that the committee, led by Dr. Ahmed Joga, scrutinised the handover notes and handed over the report to him (Buhari).

“To be fair to him, he would have hit the ground running if the previous government had handed over the notes early. However, the Jonathan government did not even permit any minister to interact in any way with the Buhari Transition Committee. Evidently, we had our hands tied behind our backs until we took over. Thus, there is nothing shady about it.”

Shehu explained that the ministerial appointments was yet to be made because the committee needed to conclude its findings on 800-page report which was presented to Buhari on Friday.

Shehu frowned on recent reports on why the Vice-President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, was prevented from attending Buhari’s meeting with the Security Adviser on the orders of the President.

In his response, the SSA said, “That is the creation of someone who just wanted to write something. It was on the same day he travelled to Sudan to represent the President, the government and the people of Nigeria at the inauguration of the president of that country.

“He couldn’t have been present in two places at the same time. Osinbajo is the Vice-President of Nigeria. In the absence of the President, he is the President. So, there cannot be dark corners into which he will not be allowed. It is not true,” he added

Fulfilment of Bible Prophecies, I can see the point Jehova's witnesses are making. End of false religion is near. No wonder they don't believe in any church. Every other church have got bad images on newspaper report and TV news except JW. Yet these pastors who are evil deceive their members into hating JV. Listen to them when they teach. They produce the most honest citizens in the world.
Any way the topic here is not about church or religion, it's about politics.

The denial of report concerning the refusal by Mr. Presidednt to accommodate the VP, PYO, to attend a meeting of the gathering of some northerners on security matters with Mr. President, is very smart. However, such report should be regarded as a pointer to how our democracy could degenerate if care is not taken.
