“The first good news is that the new one is different – young, great resume, impressive antecedents and a positive aura!” Nigeria MinisterOfSportsAndYouthDevelopment SundayDare
To start with, we have a new minister. He is a breath of some fresh air after a long period in wilderness when nobody could tell where sport was going with crisis and confusion in most parts in administration.
I am told that as he drove into the premises of his new Ministry in Abuja for the very first time, he immediately observed a discrepancy in the signposted name of the ministry. The letter he had received from the Presidency had clearly stated the role of the fundamental roles of the ministry.It was a question that reflected the depth of the man and the attention he pays to details.Omitting the word ‘Development’ speaks volumes about the shallowness of the past.
On Yandoka Street in Jos, we lived in the same house with the landlord, a Muslim Hausa man with his family of many children and three wives in purdah, and a third family, Igbo . I may not be former governor, Ahmed Bola Tinubu’s best friend, but one thing everyone gives him credit for is his ability to identify gifted people in the business of government. The list of his choice of close aides is a revelation of quality. Most have them have left indelible marks, needless to go through that long list.
