All may be set for the emergence of the youngest minister since Nigeria’s independence to man the Ministry of Youths and Sports, with apparent moves by the Presidency to shortlist the current President of the National Youth Council of Nigeria, Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere, a lawyer as the next Minister for Youths and Sports.
A presidency source confided in our correspondent that the choice of Ikenga may have been one of the reasons that delayed the announcement of a nominee from Imo state.
The contention over the ministerial nominee from Imo which has raged between Obasanjo/Tinubu-backed Festus Odimegwu and Governor Rochas Okorocha’s In-law, Prof. Anthony Anwuka may have created the room for the emergence of a third neutral candidate being projected as a compromise nominee by some youth friendly elements in Buhari’s inner circles believed to be led by Former Governor Rotimi Amaechi and Governor Nasir el-Rufai of Kaduna state.
Ikenga’s candidature, our correspondent gathered also has the blessing of the All Progressive Congress (APC) chairman, Chief Odigie Oyegun and will to a large extent mollify the Nigerian youth population.
Ikenga whose name made a surprise appearance in the new list of three (3) nominees forwarded by Okorocha to the Party and Presidency after the first list was rejected, is tipped to emerge as the view-changer of the Buhari ministerial list episode which has been dogged with criticism of exclusion of youths against earlier promises of youth participation in government.
Our source confirmed that one of the early visitors to the SSS headquarters on Friday was Ikenga who he said spent about three hours in the agency going over his details and records.
An impeccable party source said it was Ikenga who brokered an out-of-court settlement between the APC and the rival African People’s Congress during the acronym legal tussle between the two parties paving way for the registration of APC and the successes that followed.
The source added that party leaders who worked with Ikenga during the period of crisis may feel obligated and favourably disposed to his nomination.
