Birikiti:
Good to know the Ministers have been appointed portfolios

Better still will be the publishing of the KPIs given to each minister. What are the targets, milestones, and timelines?

It shouldn't be a party as usual, anyone not meeting targets/milestones in 6 months should be shown a yellow card. If after a year, you're still not meeting up, you should be fired!

No time to waste as Nigerians expect quick results. A word is enough for the wise

IboHausaYoruba:
Hmmn! All I see here are duplications and unnecessary portfolios. Nigeria don't need these much. UK has just 23 secretaries (minister) and they are chosen among the parliament, so no double salaries. USA has less than that, these are giants are more prosperous countries. Our problem in this country seems 'spiritual' honestly rather than physical because I can't fathom how any government would be this lackadaisical with our shrinking economy.

Rubbisshhh....

Imagine Wike the Rivers state election rigger as FCT minister all because Tinupoo did not get the constitutional required 25% votes in Abuja so he can replicate what he did in Rivers in Abuja come 2027 ....He will surely fail..

Mattawale as States defense minister?A known terrorists sympathetic fellow ....Someone that could not do anything about the insecurities in Zamfara state?...A joke taken too far ...


Fellow Nigerians Behold your Temporary President with his Gang of thieves (Ministars)...

Asiwaju will do so well.

JASONjnr:
My concern is that Tinubu was highly praised of knowing how to discover and make people.... His BMCs were telling me how Buhari worked with many of Tinubu's boys and yet the Buhari administration was a disaster ...


Shauibu Audu is a financial expert but he was appointed to manage steel development because of the ore in his state...... What a misplaced priority.


Infact this ministerial appointment is exactly how Buhari's appointment was. And I believe Tinubu was the one guiding Buhari with alot of the mistakes like when he asked Buhari to print more money then we were plunged into recession....
