President Muhammadu Buhari has disclosed that not all confirmed ministerial nominees screened by the Senate will have portfolios. To this end, the President said he will reduce the number of ministries since his government cannot afford to pay 42 ministers. Buhari made this known in an interview with Channels TV and Nigerian Television Authority, NTA, in New Delhi in India.


ON ROTIMI AMAECHI
This is team work, I said I know some people but there are others, I accepted from other people that I trust without even knowing them. May be those that are having problems in the National Assembly I doubt if I have met them in my life but then, I am working with others. I did not work into the presidency alone. I have to defend all the three tiers of government from all parts of the country.


ON REDUCING MINISTRIES
We can not work outside the constitution there must be a cabinet representative from each state. There use to be forty two ministers but I think we can barely keep half of that now because we cannot afford it. Others may not be substantive ministers but they will sit in the cabinet because that is what the constitution said and we can’t operate outside the constitution.
We are reducing the number of ministries we can’t afford to pay. Where is the money? Do you know the Federal Government has to help twenty seven states out of thirty six to pay salaries? Nigeria can not pay salaries Nigeria had to summon the Governor of the Central Bank to see how it could pay salaries not to talk of projects, agreement signed with foreign countries, counter funding and so on. The country was material vandalized and morally so.


ON BOKO HARAM
I am an optimistic person. I am sorry for those who have already given up. I remain confident that our military and other law enforcement agencies are more than equal to the task.’ Don’t forget that I made an earlier statement to the effect that the Nigerian military and police earned accolades all over the world: Liberia, Sierra Leone, Sudan.They earned international respect and then here you are, the Nigerian military and other law enforcement agencies could not secure 14 local governments out of 774 until the government was changed.



ON CORRUPTION
If people are not involve in corruption they won’t mind they would encourage us to get whoever compromised his position in the trust being given on to him. I see it in the papers, watch it on screen but I have never lost a sleep on it because those that are not corrupt should even encourage us to do more. But those that are interested in the safety of those that have abused trust in the country office will go to any length including bribing people to give false information and so on. Whoever is caught the document used in incriminating him or her will be used to prosecute him for Nigerians to know who has abused trust.
