President Goodluck Jonathan has ordered
members of the Federal Executive Council,
especially ministers, to relocate to their
states of origin ahead of the March 28
presidential election, The Punch reports.
It is understood that the decision was meant
to enable the ministers to improve the
president’s electoral fortunes in their various
states.
A top government official, who spoke on the
condition of anonymity, said the decision
was part of the strategy adopted by
Jonathan’s handlers for the maximum
utilisation of the time frame provided by the
recent poll shift by the Independent National
Electoral Commission.

“That directive is not strange. It is meant to
allow ministers to work more on people of
their states on the need to support the
President ahead of the elections,” the official
said.
Part of the strategy is for the ministers to
engage community and opinion leaders as
well as traditional rulers, among others,
during the period.
The official added that the possibility of
holding town hall meetings was also on the
agenda.

However, he refused to comment on whether
money was budgeted for the assignment or
the ministers were expected to fund the
project from their personal accounts.
A minister from one of the states in the
North Central area, who is privy to the
arrangement, said that he had already
instructed his aides that he would not be
receiving visitors in his office in Abuja until
after the general elections.
He said, “I have told my men that I won’t be
receiving visitors in the office until after the
elections and this is true.
“We have been told to return to our states to
work for the victory of our boss and the
party.
“It is a task that we must carry out. Those
who want to see me in the office should also
first return to their states and deliver for our
boss first.”
Also, ministerial nominees whose names
were recently forwarded to the Senate for
approval might have been asked to also start
work for the president in their various states
pending their ratification.
This, another official said, was aimed at
ensuring that no state was left behind in the
renewed efforts to get more support for the
president across the country.
It will be recalled that the presidency on
Wednesday denied allegations by the All
Progressives Congress (APC) that the federal
government has spent over $32 billion in the
fight against the Boko Haram insurgency.

...and the penny dropped.

Which source is TON?
This is one of the reasons why some presidents keep a large number of political appointees regardless of the huge cost and recurrent expenditure on maintaing these appointees.
It takes a whole lot of hard work to democratically displace a sitting president; the President just leveraged on this.
