Buhari To Appoint 12 Senior Ministers From North by GOATandYAMtheory: 6:41am On Jun 21, 2015 |
After accepting the Ahmed Joda-led Transition Committee recommendations of a “small government” which entails pruning the number of ministers from 42 to 19, President Muhammadu Buhari may appoint 12 senior ministers from the North. Sunday Mirror also gathered that most of the service chiefs and some other top security chiefs will also come from the North. The President is expected to implement key recommendations of the report, especially those proposing lean cabinet structure as a way of cutting recurrent expenditure and freeing up funds for capital projects. According to a source, the committee recommended only 19 senior ministers and 17 (junior) ministers of state totaling 36 in line with constitutional provision of one minister per state. Top on the list of the ministries to be manned by Northern politicians and technocrats include education, defence, FCT, finance, Justice, police affairs, foreign affairs and the newly-created ministry of energy amongst others. According to the source, “President Buhari has already drawn his list in line with the Joda committee recommendation and has accepted to work with only 19 ministers who will man key ministries. The list which will be sent to National Assembly this week is already been screened by the security agencies. “The list though as expected has more northerners but like you know, the North has more states than the South. Again, the intention is not to make one region dominate the other but purely because of competence and the expertise of the persons chosen. “It is believed that once the screening is concluded, this ministerial nominees will be in the public domain. They are Nigerians that have proved their worth and I can assure you that you will appreciate the thoroughness of Mr. President in making the selection.” Meanwhile, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has said that it would continue to play active role as an opposition party, The PDP in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh yesterday said the party is re-engineering and repositions to regain power in 2019. The leadership said recent political events in the country have continued to vindicate the PDP as “the only true national platform committed to the national interest, where all citizens as equal partners are free to hold opinion and aspire to any position, no matter how high, without regard to creed, class or ethnic considerations and in which no individual or group of individuals can claim ownership or attempt to appropriate control.” Stating that it has since overcome the setback of the last general elections, the PDP said as a party founded on the principles of freedom, equality, justice and national unity, its spirit “is still alive and stronger, now more than ever before, in the minds of most Nigerians and families in all the nooks and crannies of the country”. The leadership therefore charged its members in all the wards, local government and states of the federation to close ranks, double their efforts and continue to work with their leaders at all levels to ensure that the PDP comes out stronger to regain power at the center and in its traditional states come 2019. http://nationalmirroronline.net/new/buhari-to-appoint-12-senior-ministers-from-north/ |

The appointments have not been made and the media are already trying to cause ethnic and tribal crisis. 36 ministers will be appointed from all the states in the country and they will be deployed to various ministries based on their qualification and experience. All this publications that are aimed at causing crisis for the president will fail. What Nigerians want is result and nothing else. Nothing concerns us with where majority of the senior ministers are from. 16 Likes 2 Shares |

If he likes, he can appoint all the ministers from Haiti, I don't care as far as they can get the job done. And all these speculation about appointments is beginning to bore me honestly. When the list is eventually released, we'd all see who's who. 14 Likes 1 Share |

All this crappy reports. Headline says "to appoint", the first paragraph says " may appoint". Speculation as this is made to promote sales. The day to do the officiating listing isn't far anymore,so we're not going to start unnecessary debate about the new government favouring one geo-pol zone over another. 5 Likes |

seunmsg:Exactly my sentiment. People are just hell bent on causing trouble in the country. Was irritated yesterday when I saw the title of an article published in one of the media houses- "FG declares war on south south militants". I just didn't understand what the "south south" was doing there is not to stir up ethnic sentiments. Just a shame what some people do under "freedom of speech". 4 Likes 1 Share |

So Buhari wants to make all his clueless Almajiri brothers ministerial appointments? Clueless northerners who ruined our country for over 35yrs. Pls Nigerians from the south seem more intelligent and effective in office. Eg, Adeshina, Akunyili, Charles Soludo, Doald Duke, Fashola, Omobola Johnson, etc. Our agric sector was dead until Adesina transformed it. A transformation even Buhari acknowledged. Those appointments should be mixed to reflect true federal character...after all the north has benefited more from the so-called federal character than the south. 1 Like |

Despite that fact he still considers them as Nigerians so they ll still occupy some of the big seats. The same so called intellectuals from S/s and S/e ruined Nigeria during GEJ's regime. 1 Like |

The same north that crippled their region and this country for decades. It is only in subsaharan africa where the backward sets constitute as ruling class for the rest and some people thinks it dosen't matter. How can a region with terrible HDI indices constitute the ruling class for any sensible country? Everybody will get smart one day, but not everybody will get smart on time. Very soon, it will be too late to undo the damage and consequences caused by the "oversabi" politics and naivety of some people. 1 Like |
