TonyeBarcanista:

The constitution is very Clear on ministerial appointment.

1. The President nominate candidate-ministers
2. He send the nominations to the Senate for clearance
3. He performs oath of office on those cleared

If he wants Perm secretaries to be ministers, all he had to do is nominate them and send their names to the Senate. The nominees will immediately RÉSIGN their positions as Permanent Sercretaries the moment they accept the nomination. There are no backdoors to thism

[s]The person I quoted did not say anything but your dim nitwit brain have the effontery to buldge into my comment spewing nonsense.

If what I said pained you, why cant you resort into suicide other than coming here to fling your frustration on me.

It is my opinion and if you are against it, there are better ways to place diplomatic comments rather than behaving like a retaarded buffoon.[/s]

still the IDIOT i called u earlier. hit ur head on the wall and die

naijadeyhia:



Stole from the Internet? Lol very funny. You see lies and thievery go hand in hand and since lying is your bane then you know d rest.

If I drink milk from Buharis farm thats because his milk is highly sensitizing and nourishing unlike yours who only had ogogoro to offer which you received dregs of them daily. Internet voltron clan

You're too young to have alzheimers you know though dementia is an already confirmed diagnosis as is lycantropy



Just don't go rabid and bite me you hear!!

farem:


If buhari is the definition of an illiterate, especially from his foray into the management team of Nigeria since 70s vis-à-vis his modest achievements so far, I THINK I WILL LIKE TO BE AN ILLITERATE! This resolve becomes so pressing when I consider the last PhD president and 'achievements' right from university classes to balyesa govt house and to transformation agenda (sorry, I mean deformation agenda) recently experienced.

hinwazaka:

You are not even worth shinning my shoe on any issue. On no planet will a speck like you measure up to me. Even though, I studied economics and statistics in college, I had A's in my Pol 111, 121, 214 and 224.

hinwazaka:

I would like to believe you are using a JAVA browser, because you don't want to know what I think of you right now

PDPwayoo:


Education? don't go there cos i'm your superior when it has to do with education and intelligence.

bashydemy:
Yes Bola Ige is a politician from another Party, Remember the comment i qoute says he must be member the ruling political party... During OBJ second term, The AD reject everything OBJ brought to them due to betrayer of OBJ during the 2003 election...

Mogidi:


@the emboldened, would Buhari appoint ministers considering they're "distractions"?

PDPwayoo:

if i hear pim again from you, then i will expose you to NL.

hinwazaka:
This is how students fail jamb. So to you the AD rejected plum appointments because of their pride, dream on.

BraniacX:





And your proof is?

Buccal diarrhoea of course

Dimwit!!

Meanwhile in three months, investors loose over $2b dollars in the stock and capital market under buhari.................and that is not verbal diarrhoea

kaboninc:


IT is people like you who are blasting our ears with the idea that ministers are not really needed for a smooth government operation. It is people like you who are advising our dear President to make 'further' delay in appointing ministers. It is people like you who are propagating the status of Super Permanent Secretaty! The world has moved on sir!

And that is why State Governors are following suit since their comrade (President Buhari) has set a precedent. Tomorrow you'll come here to wail about Governors not conducting Local Government Elections in their respective states.

Maybe be a large corporation/organisation will appoint only a Chairman (non-executive for that matter) without 'directors' most especially 'executive directors' to run their organisation.

For once, not every action of President Buhari should be supported. Telling him where he makes mistakes makes you a better, credible man!

Reptyle:


Please what exactly have you said in this very long essay that is new and could not have been expressed in 5 sentences or less?

What PMB was saying simply is that the civil servants and technocrats do most of the heavy lifting while politicians as ministers are merely figureheads. The Adesina you spoke about for instance, was a technocrat as was the lady who headed the communications sector under President GEJ's government. He may not have expressed himself quite clearly but I am sure that the import of his statement was not lost on you.

I just wonder when you will quit this pointless and unnecessary crusade of criticizing every action or speech just to appear intelligent to your cheering band of hallelujah boys.

it is becoming very old.

Ikiriye:

When there are issues or presentations,is it the perm.sec that acts or the ministers.first world govt.don't do without ministers why should gullible Nigerians see things this way.

The roles of the minister and permanent secretary are distinct and straight forward. The importance of ministers cannot be over-emphasised. It is instructive to note that Nigeria is not an isolated case when it comes to ministers/permanent secretaries. The United States for instance have Under-Secretaries, which is Nigeria equivalent of Permanent Secretaries, and Secretaries which is ministers equivalent.

Contraty to Buhari's perception, ministers are not for 'noisemaking', neither are they meant to 'fill space' except the incompetent and clueless ones. Without cabinet ministers, a country will be likened to one on 'Auto-piloting'. More importantly, our constitution provide for offices of Ministers just as it provide for the offices of the President and Vice President.

To be fair with the President, his perception of Ministers is inappropriate. I wonder what prompted him to utter such statement when he was a former minister under the General Olusegun Obasanjo military regime between 1977-79. Is he trying to say that he was a 'noisemaking' minister in General Obasanjo cabinet?

Seriously get a real job!!!!! this hasn't paid you shishi

BraniacX:



And idiocy is thinking with your ar$e you'll notice i didn't mention your moniker either

naijadeyhia:



It has not paid him shi not to mention shishi

wakacome:
MAD MAN!!!!

rolchi:


The import of his message is simple: He doesn't want to appoint ministers. He doesn't need them. Thank God for the Constitution. PMB has just informed us that his ministers' opinion will be irrelevant after 30th September 2015.

jaymichael:
You had As on your pols as you claim, yet you use the opinion of a reporter as authority. In that case, you need a refund. Your education should have cured you of your ignorance hate and bigotry that can't make you see beyond your nose. Like I said earlier your case is BEYOND REDEMPTION.

hinwazaka:

I know what discipline I was awarded a BSC in. You don't know if it was economics or government you filled in your JAMB. That begs the question, if you actually know what a college of education looks like.

naijadeyhia:



I will not be coerced into responding to your retorical subterfuge as that would mean you achieved in bringing me DOWN to your level. Boot lickers!

BraniacX:


Of course you won't be coerced

Why would you when you'll obviously end up looking stup1d or should i say as smart as oshiomole?

And on getting to my level, for you that would be a monumental upgrade of universal proportions (big bang-ish kinda stuff)

Fvcking hypocrites

Plus learn how to spell okay! Its rhetoric for the record

bashydemy:
The question is was she a member of PDP before her appointment by OBJ?

Tonye... the fact that people actually praise ur analysis shows the level of decay in Nigerian educational system
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.. ....
