Hannatu Musawa is legally okay to be minister in NG. The Constitution says to be a commissioner or minister requires a minimum of First School Leaving Certificate (FSLC). However, legality is clashing with societal inappropriateness in this case. In a country of 200 M people there must be someone with the NYSC certificate, who is as qualified in other ways as Hannatu to be appointed a minister, and who would not be distracted with NYSC service while a minister.. All these reactive hues and cries after the fact goes to show how the NG press and the ministerial screening bodies (security agencies and the senate) are dead to their duties and responsibilities. Her lack of NYSC should have come up and debated upon during her so called screening by the senate.

In the end, even Tinubu does not have a FSLC and he is president today, until the tribunal kicks him out. Like his predecessor Buhari, Tinubu has no respect for orderliness, or the perception of it.
