Ministerial List: How Buhari’s Last Minute Change Favoured Ngige by midolian(m): 8:11am On Oct 01, 2015 |
After a long wait, President Muhammadu Buhari finally submitted the list of his cabinet to the Upper Chamber of the National Assembly. The president has been at the receiving end of harsh criticisms by angry Nigerians over his ‘deliberate’ refusal to unveil his ministers three months after assuming office. The president had anchored the reason for the delay on the ground that he needed time to select those who were credible and trustworthy to run the affairs of the nation with him. DAILY POST reports that the list, which was submitted to the senate president, Bukola Saraki yesterday by Buhari’s Special Adviser on National Assembly Matters, Itan Enang would be officially made public at the next plenary on Tuesday. However, report has it that among those penned down for ministerial appointments were, immediate past governor of Lagos State, Babatunde Fashola, former Ekiti State governor, Kayode Fayemi, former lawmaker, Chris Ngige and erstwhile governor of old Anambra State, Ogbonaya Onu, among others. However, sources told DAILY POST that Chris Ngige’s name came in at the eleventh hour. According to a top presidency source, President Buhari, who has been constantly accused of marginalizing Ndigbo over their refusal to support him during the election, didn’t have it in mind to appoint Ngige. The source told DAILY POST that Ngige’s appointment was done to mainly compensate Ndigbo. “Ngige was not part of the first list of people compiled, I can tell you that. His name came at the eleventh hour. The president had a change of mind because of the complaints in many quarters that he was punishing the south east region because of their refusal to vote for him during the election. “It took the intervention of some close associates and aides for the appointment of Ngige.” Asked if president Buhari was truly angry with the south easterners because of the outcome of the election, the source said the president had nothing against them. “See, that notion is wrong. The good thing is that Buhari has won the election and that is it. Where the vote came from is not the main issue now. Remember, he said he belongs to nobody and belongs to everybody,” the source added. http://dailypost.ng/2015/10/01/ministerial-list-how-buharis-last-minute-change-favoured-ngige/ Lalasticlala 13 Likes 1 Share |

That short igbo man Compensation things. Happy for him I hope I won't be misinterpreted here. Many of these politicians that made this list are just being compensated for a job well done during elections. They are not really technocrats. 44 Likes 1 Share |

so if not for the intervention of close associates, ngige's name wouldn't have been there, so I still believe the president dislikes the igbo, putting an igbo name as a result of pressure doesn't show likeness for igbo. 2 Likes |

BALLOSKI: Ngige and Soludo are both Igbos and both of them are qualified enough to be minister. The OP tends slightly towards bigotry as it seems to suggest that Buhari reluctantly included Ngige just to satisfy the Igbos. That is very far from the truth as the president must constitutionally choose one minister from each state. 22 Likes |

bonechamberlain:Is Ngige the only igbo man in Nigeria? If the president had not picked him, he would have picked another. We have thousands of igbo technocrats or politicians that can do the job. Remember another list will be coming soon. Even if there was no igbo man on this list, many would be on the next. He has no choice but to balance the equation. Stop being a bigot! 14 Likes 1 Share |

seunmsg:as much as I doubt the story, I still want to believe the op posted what he saw out there . If the story is anything to go by, it then now mean ngige did not go through the purported dss screening which every other nominees went through since he was picked at the eleventh hour. Dss completed their screening over 2 weeks ago, so ngige inclusion couldn't have been a last minute thing. NB: BUHARI may end up having 2 ministers from anambra since I heard obj wants him to include soludo in his list. 2 Likes |

If buhari did not pick fashola and amechi, then i would believe he belongs to nobody. Fashola recklessly spent lagos state funds. To the level of upgrading a personal website for 78m. In a sane country he would have been cooling off somewhere. He would be asked how many people bidded for that job and why did he award it to that company at that amount. That said, jonathans ministers are far better than these ones buhari picked out of party membership and investment, not based of merit. With the situation this nation has found itself economically, buhari can not be doing favours with positions. 8 Likes 1 Share |

If you like you can chose all your ministers from Daura i don't care,selecting Ngige is nothing to us and can't hide the TRUTH that "you hate the south-east"......during the war you lead a war to the south east[owerri] that left over a million people dead.............you can't cheat you way out,we all knows that you hate us and that why we gave you 5% vote.........selection of Ngige will do me no good but to Ngige who will be recieving his salary every month...........i wish Nigeria division 3 Likes |
