The presidency disclosed on Sunday, November 8, when Muhammadu Buhari
will finally swear in the ministers-designate.
After months of waiting for the new government to appoint the cabinet,
Nigerians are set to face the final event to crown the many-staged political
move, which is the swearing-in ceremony. According to the statement
released by presidential spokesman on Facebook, the ceremony will be held
on Wednesday.
“President Muhammadu Buhari will officially inaugurate a new Federal
Executive Council on Wednesday, November 11, 2015.
“Before the commencement of the inaugural session of the council, the
ministers-designate will take their oaths of office in the Council Chambers of
the presidential villa.
“The swearing-in ceremony will begin promptly at 10:00 hours and the
ministers-designate are expected to be seated in the Council Chambers by
09:30 hours at the latest.
“Each minister-designate can only be accompanied to the swearing-in
ceremony by a maximum of two guests.
Also, following the confirmation of their nominations by the Senate, President
Buhari will tomorrow at the Presidential Villa, preside over the swearing-in of
Prof. Mahmood Yakubu as Chairman of the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC), and five others as National Commissioners of INEC. The
swearing-in of Prof Yakubu, Mrs Amina Zakari, Mr Solomon Adedeji Soyebi,
Prof Antonia Taiye Okoosi-Simbine, Dr Muhammed Mustafa Lecky and Alhaji
Baba Shettima Arfo is scheduled for 11:00 hours in the Council Chambers of
the presidential villa.”
It should be recalled that Buhari has been criticized over the delay in
appointing the cabinet. The country leader even received the name “Baba Go
Slow”. The president, however, explained that there should be no rush in
making such important political decisions.
Buhari, who was inaugurated on May 29, took his 36 ministers on a retreat
on Thursday and Friday.
