Daniel Bwala, a lawyer and public affairs analyst, has said President Bola Tinubu will unveil a new cabinet in a few weeks.

Bwala said this while responding to recent comments by Chief Whip of the Senate, Mohammed Ali Ndume.

In an interview with BBC Hausa on Wednesday, Ndume had said the federal government’s inability to address security challenges and other issues is a major challenge, adding that some ministers are unable to meet with President Bola Tinubu to discuss the matter.

He had said: “The major problem with this government is that its doors are closed, to the extent that even some ministers cannot see the President, not to mention members of the National Assembly, who do not have the opportunity to meet with him and discuss the issues affecting their constituencies.”

Ndume later told journalists at the National Assembly that the president had lost touch with reality as some forces had caged him at Aso Rock.

Weighing in, Bwala in a piece titled, ‘Ali Ndume, the rant of an expert in grandstanding’, said Ndume was unfit to criticise Tinubu.

He asked the lawmaker what he had achieved for his people in over two decades that he has been representing them.

“Senator Ali Ndume has continued to show lack of leadership quality by any standard. He is just a beneficiary of a system that promotes Stockholm syndrome. Otherwise, how could a man with relatively less political value continues to represent people for 21 years, yet enmeshed in endless controversies with little or nothing to show in his Senatorial District?”

“Of course, he knows his people too well. Like Maxwell clearly stated in law 20 – The Law of Explosive Growth, John Schnatter, one of America’s best makers of pizza had said, “It is my job to build the people who are going to build the company.” The question therefore is, how many people has Senator Ali Ndume built in his 21-year sway at the National Assembly? As a 2-term House of Representatives member from 2003 through 2011, and now a 4th term Senator representing people of Southern Borno in the Red Chamber, who are his mentees who have gone on to excel in life?

“Senator Ndume has thrown caution to the winds with his continuous attempt to mudslide, denigrate, asperse and besmirch the name of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He continues to make it look like the situation Nigeria finds herself is President Tinubu’s making. He is quick to forget that whatever Nigeria is growing through today, the seed was planted by his Northern brother, President Muhammadu Buhari’s unfortunate leadership for 8 years. He is oblivious of the fact that it is the mess of his brother that the present administration is trying hard, in the midst of excruciating economy situation, to clean up. He has forgotten that it is easier to destroy than to build. The humongous revelations with odious and odoriferous ooze of financial recklessness of appointees of former President Muhammadu Buhari is why Nigeria is the way it is today. It is unfortunate that Senator Ndume expects a miracle-performer or a man with the magic wand to correct the many anomalies of the past administration. Of course, he has been a beneficiary of the endemic system for many years. He does not believe in laying good foundations, like the Tinubu administration is currently doing to put the country on a trajectory of economic prosperity and socio-political wellness of the common man.”

Bwala added that recently, the assessment of the current crop of Ministers was done and in a couple of weeks President Tinubu would unveil a new cabinet reshuffling

He said: “Senator Ndume constantly disparages President Tinubu’s administration over his cabinet members. He is quick to forget that many of the so-called cabinet members were brought by people like him, governors and party leaders from across the states of the Federation.

“And Mr. President has repeatedly told whoever cared to listen that he would not run a cabinet that is not prone to reshufflement like Nigerians witnessed under former President Muhammadu Buhari.

“Only recently, the assessment of the current crop of Ministers was done. And in a couple of days or weeks from now, President Tinubu would unveil a new cabinet reshufflement.

“Why cannot Senator Ndume wait till that time to know if he will continue with his wailing and ululation? Senator Ali Ndume has continued to show that he is an overrated political beneficiary of our system and in endless search of his self-discovery.”

In May, President Tinubu vowed to drop any member of his cabinet whom he feels falls short of the expectations of Nigerians.

Speaking at a meeting with the leadership of Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, the President said he would continue to do his best for the country.

“I thank the cabinet members for their efforts, but I will relieve any of them of their duties anytime I feel that they are failing Nigerians,” the president had said.
