Ministerial list: No more ‘go slow’
I am trying hard to understand the point President Muhammadu Buhari wants to make with the statement credited to him that he is under tremendous pressure to release the names of his ministerial nominees.
It would have been enough for him to promise to release the list soon as expected and spare us the details of his reasons for the unnecessary delay in naming his cabinet. There is a limit to which permanent secretaries currently in charge of ministries can take decisions on major projects without the approval of the Federal Executive Council yet to be constituted.
Curiously, the appointees were not new. If the president knew all along that he was going to re-appoint them, why did he wait for that long and allow all the speculations about the offices. Up till now, some of his close aides have not been re-appointed, but they are performing official duties and the president cannot be bothered by whatever the public think.
