Noisemakers Or Ministers ? - Buhari Does Not Understand How Democracy Works! by Nobody: 7:43pm On Sep 28, 2015
In trying to explain away their cluelessness and sluggishness in appointing Ministers Buhari told France24 that Ministers are Noisemakers that Permanent Secretaries are of more value than ministers because Permanent Secretaries do the work.

While not under-estimating the role of permanent secretaries Buhari in making this argument exposed a failure in understanding how a democratic or civilian government works!

Permanent Secretaries are Government Beaureucrats who execute any policies of the government of the day. The Permanent Secretary in the Ministery of Finance should be able to implement an auterity measure for a right wing government and then turn around to implement a welfare program for a left wing government when a new government is formed. The Permanent Secretary as a Government Beaureucrat should be unbiaised and execute government programs and is not expected to communicate any political views!

However the role of the minister is to translate the global vision or strategic vision of a Government into policies that affect his Ministry. Hence Why every Government needs a cabinet who understand the aspirations of the Government to help craft policies in line with the views of the Government of the day.

keep crying...we've been okay without the yeye ministers.


In truth, are the ministers the ones doing the work?


In ministries, the perm sec has been on ground for yrs, they knw what is what and what will not be....the ministers only come to slap their yeye policies, scuttling everything..


If I may ask...what yeye ministers have u been appointing in Nigeria sef...?

Is it a retired army being made minister for education or a doctor being made minister for agriculture?

As far as I am concerned, u less the right people have the right position, what is the essence of the politicians?


Their policies never works...thank God for Adesina...that ex-miniater if Agric...he proved to us that the right man matters.


Ministers that the govnrs nominates....

I expected you to be more intelligent than this.the ministers will be answerable to pmb only and not metuh or his co travellers in the PDP. If he described ministers as noise makers based on their uninspiring antecedents, what's the big deal with the statement?

Does he even understand the imports of piloting a modern economy? This is a man who went for a bilateral engagement in the US without any businessman. He treats businessmen men like they are evil and his elementary understanding of trade/business begins and ends with buying and raising 150 cows! Why wont the concept of "ministers" sound like rocket science to him?

Those we had in the past 16 years , who were not dictators what did they achieve for nigerians? In fact I will prefer a dictator who will right all the wrongs of m0f0s who multiplied poverty amongst ordinary Nigerians with their 'stealing is not corruption' slogans.

Its funny how people who thinks their opinion count or matter.

While in the actual sense they are just attention seekers and noise makers.

You don't get the drift?

Is NNPC and subsidiaries not more or less 90% of the petroleum ministry?

The likes of Diezani can only do more harm than good; you'r better off having no minister than a Diezani 'Diezaster'.

Noisemakers? Do you mean the long awaited Ministers?

Imagine being called to serve your country as a noisemaker?
