Ministerial List Constitutional Deadline - Where Are The Rest Of The Names? by wegevv(op): 9:25am On Aug 02, 2023
So Tinubu released 28 names last Thursday, 1 day before the deadline but hasn't bothered with the rest. Deadline has now passed. 42 names were expected.

Hasn't he basically tricked the system by only releasing 66.7% of the list. Is this allowed by the constitution? If so then can a future President release the name of just one minister before the deadline and then pull a Buhari with the rest?

PS: Also what's the point of screening ministers before knowing which ministerial position they will be taking?

Hmm. You usually have an explanation for most things but surprisingly not for this. If he has bent/broken constitutional law by not releasing the full list (I don’t know but I’m asking) then surely it’s important

I calculated that he will release the second batch today or tomorrow before they conclude and go on recess.
