Barring any last minute change, President Muhammadu Buhari may have
picked from across the States of the Federation, including the Federal
Capital Territory, Nigerians who will serve as ministers in his cabinet.
Recall that on September 30, President Buhari sent to the Senate
President Bukola Saraki, the first batch of 21 ministerial nominees.
Also, yesterday, the President sent the names of the second batch of 16 nominees.
Meanwhile, at the time of this report, the states where Ahmed Isa Ibeto (No. 19) Abubakar Bawa (No 36.) and Aisha Abubakar (No. 32) were nominated from were yet to be known.
Background checks however show that both Ibeto and Bawa are from Niger State.
When contacted, the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to President Muhammadu Buhari, Mr. Femi Adesina said: “The names of ministerial nominees, the President has sent to the Senate for screening, had no states of origin attached to them. As soon as the President does that, it will be made public.”
