President Mohammadu Buhari will appointment Ministers only
when it is feasible, his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi
Adesina said Tuesday.
Speaking exclusively to Vanguard in reaction to massive
public concern on why the president has not formed his cabinet, Adesina said
that the president is preparing the grounds for the Ministers, saying that they
would be appointed at the fullness of time.
He said: “The appointment of Ministers is constitutional
because the constitution prescribes that there must be a Minister from at least
one state of the federation and President Mohammdu Buhari will do what is
constitutional. So, he will constitute a cabinet.
“But then when he does it is his prerogative. He is the one
who will determine when he needs that cabinet. But for now, he has said that he
wants to lay a proper foundation for the administration and that’s why he has
been working with bureaucrats; the various Permanent Secretaries.
“For the past two week and still going forward, the
Permanent Secretaries have been briefing him on the state of their ministries
and then, I am sure at the fullness of time, the Ministers will be appointed.”
