Jonathan Calls Emergency FEC Meeting by Nobody: 10:48pm On Aug 01, 2013
August 1, 2013 - 9:03pm| By Elizabeth Embu

President Goodluck Jonathan has called for an emergency meeting of the Federal Executive Council to be held on Friday (2nd of August), Daily Times has reliably gathered.

The agenda of the meeting is unknown. Following this development, ministers are already jittery fearing it maybe the long awaited cabinet reshuffle.

President Jonathan is on record as saying his decision to reshuffle his cabinet is not one that will be publicised and hyped, but that he will do it when and if the need arises and at his own discretion.

However, a top official, who confirmed the meeting, tried to down play this stating that it was not unusual for the President to call emergency meetings “in order to iron out issues"

Maybe to declare a state of emergency in lagos for blatant acts of secession.

You don't reshuffle your cabinet unless you have failed. You keep your cabinet intact if they are performing.

My ever ready presido,efficient and very unpredictable.Everyone would be standing on his or her toes by tomorrow. Well i would have loved to disclose the reason of the emergency meeting but will be an act of disloyalty on my part. Please bear with us.

No matter amount of time the cabinet is reshuffled, one minister can never be removed from jona's cabinet, na only God the thing dey clear to. Minister of Petroleum grin
Chai, I fear that b1TTch die.

There are some ministers too I think any government irrespective of the party in power shouldn't do away with them.
Minister of Agriculture, telecommunication and that of the aviation.
Those trio are very competent.

Old man read it again with your spectacle on: You don't shuffle your cabinet unless they have failed. If he reshuffles his cabinet; it means they have not performed. As Americans say, don't fix it if ain't broke. Why reshuffle if things working for you?

I said it on this forum that when GEJ will do cabinet reshuffle, no one would know. All the speculations in May amounted to nothing. Now, the President is doing it at his own time and his own way.

I'm not really in support of frequent changes in govt. I believe people should be given time to achieve results and consolidate (for those who are working towards achieving results). I believe whole sale changes mid-way in a tenure is not a sign of a focused govt. I know the President is also an advocate of allowing appointees, who are working, sufficient time achieve results. I hope the president limits the changes to the few ministers who have been occupying space and doing minimal work or nothing. I also suspect that some ministers nominated by the few anti-GEJ governors may suffer collateral damage.

Whatever happens, I hope the president retains the ministers of finance, works, agriculture, aviation (if she's not interested in the Anambra polls), power, trade and investment, information and a few others.

Who knows, the meeting may even have nothing to do with cabinet changes
