Nigerians may have to wait for another two weeks for the much-awaited list of ministerial nominees, expected to be sent to the Senate for screening and approval by President Muhammadu Buhari.

Saturday Sun gathered that the President is already putting finishing touches to the list, which he has kept strictly to himself to avoid leakage and unnecessary bickering among members of the ruling party.

“It is almost certain that the list of ministerial nominees would be forwarded to the Senate in two weeks time. This is to allow the president check and crosscheck the people he is going to work with in his second and final term in office”, a presidential source stated on Friday.

Meanwhile, the President has approved the re-appointment of Mr Boss Mustapha as Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), and Malam Abba Kyari as Chief of Staff (COS) to the President.

Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu in a statement said both appointments take effect from May 29, 2019. Both Mustapha and Kyari have continued in office despite the expiration of Buhari’s first tenure.

Their appointment is the second President Buhari would make since his swearing in on May 29. The President on Wednesday made his first appointment one month after he was sworn-in. He had appointed Sunday Aghaeze and Bayo Omoboriowo as his Personal Assistants in charge of photography.

In the same vein, the President has approved the appointment of 11 personal staff. Shehu in another statement said the appointments also took effect from May 29, 2019.

Those appointed are Mohammed Sarki Abba – Senior Special Assistant to the President (Household and Social Events), Ya’u Shehu Darazo – Senior Special Assistant to the President (Special Duties), Dr.Suhayb Sanusi Rafindadi as Personal Physician to the President, AmbassyLawal Kazaure – State Chief of Protocol and Sabiu Yusuf – Special Assistant (Office of the President).

Others are Saley Yuguda – Special Assistant (House Keeping), Ahmed Muhammed Mayo – Special Assistant (Finance and Administration), Mohammed Hamisu Sani – Special Assistant (Special Duties) and Friday Bethel – Personal Assistant (General Duties).

Also appointed are Sunday Aghaeze – Personal Assistant (State Photographer) and Bayo Omoboriowo – Personal Assistant (Presidential Photographer), who have earlier been appointed.

Former governor of Abia state and Chief Whip of the Nigerian Senate, Dr. Orji Kalu has congratulated Mr. Boss Mustapha and Mallam Abba Kyari on their re-appointment as Secretary to the Government of the Federation and Chief of Staff to the President respectively.

Lauding President Buhari for the re-appointments, Kalu stressed that the All Progressives Congress (APC) led-federal government will continue to work assiduously to improve the well being of Nigerians.

According to the former governor, President Buhari is desirious to take Nigeria to enviable heights. Kalu while describing the re-appointments of Mustapha and Kyari as timely, urged the newly re-appointed SGF and CoS to sustain their good works.

....If you think that Baba Lifeless is ready to take Nigeria to enviable heights with his lopsided appointments and delay, then you're not far from being a witless fellow like Orji Uzor Kalu.

Baba Lifeless will continue to check and cross check those who will support the RUGA bullshit before appointing them.

I wonder who he will blame this time.

This Fulani president is a mistake that must never be done again.

Story ... NASS was their initial excuses for the delayed.

Hope in 2 weeks it wont be Snake issues that would divert our attentions again....

Can anything good come out of the dullard from daura?
It seem the president don't have any ideal of what he is doing..

Na una sabi

Pressmen: Mr President after 3 months you yet to appoint ministers how do you tend to make Nigeria one of the strong economies when you yet to form your cabinet

Buhari: Kai Mr freshmen in this next level kai mana make I no expect miracle ko

Canada visa in a bit

still same set of old people will be at the helms of affairs so why is it staying to long.

Much awaited? Who exactly is waiting for a bloody ministerial list? Does the list translate to speedy development?...

2 more weeks?? Nonsense and Cameroon

Baba scrutinize and vet the list the way you want. We are with you on this.

How anyone thinks Buhari has a plan is a mystery.

The man started campaigning last year and won the election this year. You would expect that by now he knows what he wants to accomplish, an idea of the road blocks ahead and the people who can help him accomplish it.

Na old soldiers go still full the ministerial lists.

Mallam bubu to my utter disappointment is hopelessly clueless,if something as simple as forming a cabinet with the usual faces is proving to be an herculean task

It’s another lost 4years and counting for Naija.

Like we are expecting anything out of the ordinary!! Nothing to offer jare

Every man has a friend who encourages him to cheat..
Les not argue

You know you are going to reappoint the former ministers so why the delay? At the moment nothing is working.

Still same old men being recycled, why then waste our time
