President Muhamadu Buhari will appoint his
ministers before month’s end as he promised
although he believes technocrats do much of
the job.
In a 12-minute interview with France 24
Television during his state visit to France from
where he returned yesterday, the President
was quoted to have said: “The ministers are
there to make a lot of noise; for the politicians
to make a lot of noise. But the work is being
done by the technocrats. They are there to
provide the continuity, dig into the records and
then guide us, [those of us] who are just
coming in.
“I think this question of ministers is political.
People from different constituencies want to
see their people directly in government, and
see what they can get out of it.
“As for the cabinet, I said we will have one by
the end of the month, and time flies. The end
of the month is coming too quickly for my
liking. I will send the names to the national
assembly.
“We have a government but we don’t have a
cabinet. I don’t know how you define that but
we have a government and that is why I am
here. Under this system, we have to have
ministers and we are going to have ministers.
On Military, Boko Haram: “The results of the
re-organisation we carried out in the military
are being seen. There is progress being done.
Our main concern is the condition of the
Chibok girls and how we can recover them.
“We are occupied with negotiations and at this
stage, it has to be confidential because we are
not sure of the leadership of the Boko Haram-
that we can talk with to get the girls released.
“ We have to first identify that those who claim
to be Boko Haram leaders are actually the
leaders, and they know where the Chibok girls
are and their present condition.
“France is more hands-on in the Boko Haram
issue because Nigeria is totally surrounded by
former French colonial countries and France
has maintained a strong relationship with its
former colonies.
On Naira
“ I don’t think it is healthy for us to further
devalue the Naira. This is why we are getting
the Central Bank of Nigeria to make some
modifications, in terms of making foreign
exchange available to essential services.
“Things like toothpick and rice, Nigeria can
produce enough of those. We don’t need to
use our hard currency on that but those who
insist on buying toothpick from Europe and
China, they can go ahead and buy foreign
exchange.
“The last time I was leader, I was in the
barracks, this time I’m in the palace. It is so
big and very expensive to maintain but it is
there, it cannot be removed. I don’t think I am
a different man but I am coming back in a
different system. A better system because this
is what works.
“I was convinced in December 1991 when the
Soviet union collapsed, that multi-party
democratic system is the best form of
government, otherwise it will be the same old
problem.”
