Jonathan May Move Nyesom Wike To Niger Delta Ministry by unuane1(m): 6:24am On Jul 11, 2014 |
There are indications that the President has concluded plans to move the supervising Minister of Education, Nyesom Wike to head the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs which was formerly headed by Godsday Orubebe who was shown the way out few months ago to pursue his governorship ambition. The President had Wednesday appointed the former Kano State governor, Ibrahim Shekarau to head the Education Ministry. According to a source close to the Minister who revealed to us under cover, Wike’s plan to contest the governorship election may have been truncated by President Jonathan’s kinsmen, the Ijaws who are desperate to ensure that they occupy the seat of power in 2015, after Amaechi. Wike who is known to have depended greatly on the support of the First Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan is said to be opposed by most of the ex-militants who are largely Ijaws. We also gathered from one of the Minister’s aides that he had resisted the new offer in exchange for his ambition. Though he had the option of either resigning from the Federal Executive Council this month of July or he would be dropped by the President, the First Lady and a few members of the President’s kitchen cabinet were said to have pleaded that he should not be disgraced out of power but he should be upgraded as a means of compensation for all the battles he fought against Gov. Amaechi who was forced to leave the PDP for the APC. http://www.nigerianbulletin.com/threads/jonathan-may-move-nyesom-wike-to-niger-delta-ministry-news-wire.83626/ |
