“The ministers are there, I think, 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; they have to provide the continuity, dig into the records and then guide us,
[those of us] who are just coming in.
“They have been there, some of them for 15 years, some for 20 years. So 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.”

Go and ask the TV presenter, who seriously schooled Madam due process when she stupidly claimed she is not a politician. The level of illiteracy and ignorance in our country is appalling, and you have just shown your own stake in it.

Let me educate u a little bit
1) a minister is a mere representative of the president in that ministry
2) the president can pass his directives or give instructions based on his manifesto to any ministery WITH OR WITHOUT A MINISTER
3) ministers are only needed when the president wants to reduce the work load on him.... And if the president is not complaining..... I wonder y u should.. ....

PDPwayoo:

@TonyeBarcanista you better go and commit suicide. I think that is better and faster than this slow death you are experiencing cos of Buhari.

Even if Buhari appoint your miserable tribal men as minister, you will still have 101 reasons to complain.

TonyeBarcanista:

Sometimes it is VERY good to use your brain to think...

1. Political party sponsor a candidate for office of the President.
2. The President is to work towards implementation of party manifesto.
3. He employs his ministers who help formulate policies and see to their executions in line with President/Party agenda.
4. THE ministers are exxpected to be LOYAL to the President and defend his government against opposition parties.


Common sense should dictate to you that Ministers are partisan people, hence, majority (if not 100%) are picked from ruling party. The few outsiders (if any) are naturally enmeshed into the ideals of the President's party. Common sense 101

[s]He actually used to be a Buharist .... until February 2015 when GEJ postponed elections!

That period, COINCIDENTALLY, was when GEJ doled out 3Billion Naira (part of it was coined "Digitalisation money" and given to TV stations like AIT) to be used to recruit "e-warriors" to act as propaganda tools, in the hope that Nigerians are foolish and will swallow the rubbish they spew online!

Now, if you conclude that he was 'touched" in February.........I can understand

He wants to be remembered as "Barcanista" ... but he does not want to be remembered as "Barcanista" at the same time!

wirinet:
Barcanista, you are still trying to hide your bitterness of Buhari's defeat of Jonathan by forming constructive criticism. It is not a must to criticise every statement Buhari makes. You cannot criticise someone for what he thinks. Buhari never said he will not appoint ministers, he was only sharing his thoughts , and after being in government for over two decades, including becoming a head of state, he is entitled to his own opinion.

This is what he said;


Buhari went further to explain that Ministers could be sources of distraction as a result of their dual allegiance; to their function as officials of the state and as politicians.

You should see that Buhari is making a statement on the kinds of people he would choose as ministers; technocrats who make little noise with little political allegiance.

Oby Ezikwesili is CORRECT. Has she contested an election before? Do you have evidence she is a CARD CARRYING member of ANY political party?
THE TV PRESENTER IS NOT A GOVERNMENT TEACHER, I AM. I have an NCE degree In ECONOMICS and POLITICAL science. I have taught GOVERNMENT in senior secondary schools. I can say I am AN AUTHORITY in this subject matter. Take my posts, go to another Political Science professor in Nigeria to confirm it's correctness.

naijadeyhia:
[b]Are people still taking that Booboonista seraiously? I have thrown down the gauntlet with him on wikes tribunal saga and I do same here with Buhari and his ministerial statement which to me is 100% spot on. Ministers are overhyped and merely am ambassador of the president in that ministry. However what has been d norm has been ministers taking on excess powers on themselves and joining in looting Nigeria.

Ministers are meant to make the presidency look good but selfishness has been their focus. They are noise makers... Presidential noise makers who only echo what the president says and wants.

Barcanista is just a tool. Take him serious at your own Peril.

I want to believe he just might be related to ffk or perhaps ffk was present at his naming ceremony and joined in praying for him inadvertently cursing him to be like him. There is no loyal bone in his body.

Give him an appointment now and he will sing like a bird just like ffk and he will begin singing buharis praise and kissing bottoms everywhere.

Bunch of loosers.[/b]

thunder74:
In a nut shell, we should not expect minister this month again?
Buhari wants to rule Nigeria alone with his brothers who are members of his kitchen cabinet.
Assuming the constitution did not mandate the spread of ministerial posts to all the states, he would have appointed only his people since but now the constitution is forcing him to do what he does not want to do, hence the reason for all these excuses and delay.

He would have loved his Attorney General to come from the North, Finance - North, Information - North.
Hear him again
"So 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.”

VickJames:
Buhari made a very stupeed statement when he said ministers are not needed. Who submits economic plans, ideas, and manage the ministries?

So, Buhari is trying to say what Adesina did in the agricultural sector was mere noise-making? Or what some Akunyili in the information ministry was mere noise-making?
Is it the ministries where we still have old men with 1970 brains that he is calling technocrats? So, they've been technocrats all these years and all the ministries are more or less dead except with the timely intervention of some ministers who gave many of their jobs to some consulting firms to save them from mass sack.

A ministry without minister is like an army without a commander. They know how to kill, but they don't know who to kill.

When I say the economy is run by someone who lacks the mental capacity to think of the box, they'll say someone is wailing.
