Need For A Cabinet Shake-up In Nigeria. by Jtownonline: 3:42pm On Sep 15, 2016
THE economic meltdown current being experienced in the country has occupied public discourse from all the states of the federation lately. Recently, Senator Dino Melaye, the Senate Committee Chairman on Federal Capital Territory called on President Muhammadu Buhari to carry out a minor cabinet shake-up to remove those he described as not performing well. Senator Melaye mentioned the names of the cabinet members which included: Dr. (Mrs.) Kemi Adeosun – Minister of Finance, Mr. Udoma Udo Udoma –Minister of Budget and Economic Planning, and Mr. Godwin Emiefele – Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

The Senator specifically pointed out that the Minister of Finance; Dr. Kemi Adeosun has demonstrated gross incompetence in the handling of the nation’s economy. He emphasized that she has not fashioned out economic policies that would help to take the country out of the economic recession which has lingered for so long.
On the part of the Minister of Budget and Economic Planning, Mr. Udoma Udo Udoma, he said with due respect that he (Udoma) is a distinguished and an accomplished lawyer with integrity. But being that he is not an economist, he lacks the requisite knowledge, skills and experience to manage such a very critical and important ministry.
Similarly, Senator Melaye criticized the Central Bank Governor, Mr. Godwin Emiefele for initiating and implementing policies that have only helped to slow-down and negate the effort of the current administration to improve the well-being of Nigerians and take her out of the recession. He pointed to the fact that the Emiefele was not prudent in handling the disbursement of the money meant for the purchase of arms during the last administration of Goodluck Ebele Jonathan (now tagged as the Dasuki-gate).
Take it or leave it, Senator Melaye’s call for the heads of these ministers and the governor of the Central bank is not only appropriate but timely. For instance, the Minister of Finance, during the second quarter of this year, assured Nigerians that as soon as the implementation of the 2016 budget begins, the social safety net embedded in the budget will help to cushion the effects of the meltdown and will systematically stimulate and enhance the revival of the ailing economy. Again, by the time money for capital projects is injected into the economy, it will create more jobs and reduce unemployment especially among youths.
The passage of the budget into law is four months old now but instead of the economy to improve, we have seen it deteriorating by the day. In fact, the economy is currently in recession, the worst ever, the last of which was since the past thirty three years.
The recent statistics released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) indicates that ....... READ MORE..http://jtownonline..com.ng/2016/09/need-for-cabinet-shake-up-in-nigeria.html#more

Nigerians are too soft brained and weak to understand performance. All they want is an easy ride through life. It is easier to destroy and plunder than to build.
There maybe silent worker ministers building quietly and sustainably or noise making ministers doing nothing
I would leave the ministers as they are except maybe the sports minister.
