Aregbesola
Served 8 years as commissioner for works in Lagos (you know what that means?)
Later seconded to state of Osun to serve another 8 years as Governor (his performance is in public knowledge) now a Minister of the federal republic. That makes uninterrupted 20 years of public largess.

Rotimi Amaechi
Formerly a Speaker in Rivers state House of Assembly, then Governor for 8 years in Rivers state, 4 years as Federal Minister under the "CHANGE" government and returned as Minister under the "Next Level" government that makes an uninterrupted
24 years on public fund!

Babatunde Fashola
Serves as a legal practitioner at the chambers of Kafaru Tinubu then Chief of staff in Lagos, that means a lot.
Then 8 years as Governor in Lagos and another 4 years as Minister under the "CHANGE" government overseeing three major ministries (his performance on his first appointment is in public knowledge) now returned as Minister under the "Next Level" government.

Gbemisola Saraki
Former Senator from Kwara state, now a Minister under the "Next Level" government her only credential being bringing his blood brother on his kneels politically.

Timipre Slyva
Formerly a Governor of Bayelsa for 8 years formerly indicted and was on trial with EFCC for several years now a Minister under the "Next Level" government

Olorunmbe Mamora
Former Lagos Commissioner for Health, a "Yes Sir" man to the power that be, later a Senator now a federal Minister under the "Next Level" government

Godswill Apabio
Served 8 years as Governor of Akwa-Ibom, later a Senator of the Federal Republic. Visitor to EFCC for several years, case quashed upon cross-carpeting to the ruling APC now a Federal Minister under the "Next Level" government

Architect Adegbite
Former Commissioner for works under Governor Ibikunle Amosun, "Yes Sir" man to Governor Amosun now a Federal Minister his credential for his new position being his loyalty to Governor Amosun

Sunday Dare
Columnist with Tinubu's the Nations Newspaper, several years as media Aid to Tinubu, put on board of NCC for his loyalty to the Bourdillon now a Ministerial nominee from Oyo state

Chris Ngige
Formerly a Governor in Anambra, he was in the national assembly then federal Minister under the "CHANGE" government now returned as a Minister for another term under the "Next Level" government.

Ogbonaya Onu
Formerly a Governor, he was a Minister for Science and Technology under the "CHANGE" government now returned as a Minister under the "Next Level" government

Lai Muhammad
Formerly a commissioner in Lagos, another "Yes Sir" man to the power that be, a Minister under the "CHANGE" government now returned as a Minister under the "Next Level" government.

Adeniyi Adebayo
Formerly a Governor in Ekiti state, now a Minister under the "Next Level" government.

Festus Keyamo
Formerly a Human Rights Activist Lawyer, he was a Lawyer to EFCC tormenting looters of our national treasury but was baited to come and eat and expectedly kept quiet once he was invited to the "dining table", Keyamo exhibits good table manner because he stopped talking once he started eating. Keyamo will now sit on the same table with the looters he once tormented to make decisions for the country

........And the list continues, in all 8 retired but not tired Governors, several former legislatures.

Meanwhile, Mr Bayo Ogunlesi is a Nigerian managing the Heathrow Airport and some other Airports in the UK, he also manages the railway in some European countries but never invited home to come and serve as Transport Minister just because he's not loyal to the Bourdillon.

Recently, the news of a Nigerian medical Doctor, a graduate of OAU Ile-Ife that performed an unprecedented feat in the medical profession went viral internationally, he never made the Ministerial list because he would neither say "Yes sir" to the northern cabals nor the Bourdillon.

Kase Lawal is an Ibadan man from Elekuro, he's a world class oil magnate based in Texas, USA. He rubs shoulders with the powers that be in America, he's acclaimed to be the richest black man in Texas his goodwill and social capital would have assisted our oil and gas sector. Alas, he won't say "Yes Sir" to the constituted Authority hence he's not on the Ministerial list.

Year in year out, young Nigerians record academic feats internationally but never has any of these young graduates bubbling with fresh ideas been invited to come and serve their fatherland rather people are recycled and compensated for loyalty to their Ogas at the top.

A critical scrutiny of the list of ministerial nominees shows that none of the forty-three prospective Ministers is below 50 years of age. The only jobs reserved for Nigerian youths are: Social media ranting, Npower, SureP, O'Yes,j Yesso, BetNaija and yahooyahoo.

With this trend, the labour of our Hero past is already in vain.
