Fashola, the Minister of Power, Works and Housing has dropped six places in the YNaija Effectiveness Ranking for Ministers.

The former Lagos governor, who previously occupied the number one position has been dubbed the ‘Minister of excuses’. Almost two years as the head of the ministry, Fashola just like his principal, President Muhammadu Buhari has made it a point of duty to blame the Goodluck Jonathan administration for the poor power situation in the country.

In the week under review, the minister once again accused Jonathan’s government of incurring a huge debt following his decision to reduce electricity tariff – in order to secure votes in the 2015 elections. As much as there’s a slight possibility that Fashola is right, the excuses he churns almost on a daily basis for the abysmal power situation in the country is getting tiring and is a cause for concern.

While speaking at the Presidency Quarterly Business Forum Fashola gave reasons why Nigeria’s power situation is not as good as that of Niger and Benin Republic – countries Nigeria sell electricity to. The minister said Nigeria “sells the power in exchange for a guarantee that they won’t dam the rivers that sustain Kainji Dam.” What does he even mean by “…they won’t dam the rivers that sustain Kainji Dam”.

Professor Isaac Adewole of the Health Ministry dropped three places. Adewole bit the dust following allegations by the House of Representatives that he (Adewole) ordered the suspension of Professor Usman Yakubu, the Executive Secretary of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), over Yakubu’s refusal to pay the “sum of N197.072m for rehabilitation works in some Federal Medical Centres for contracts awarded in 2016.”

the only working ministers are the silent one's

silly and jobless Igbos and their meaningless Fashola headache.


You better go find work to do..

.

What fashola is doing is what you get when you make a SAN your minister of power. Instead of fixing the power issue he is busy looking for an accused whom he will prove to be the culprit behind his failure.

Kindly study the activities of these Ministers very well before rating them.......
