President Mohammadu Buhari's Special Adviser on Media and Publicity,
Mr. Femi Adesina said that ministers will be appointed at his convenient time.
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.”
