Veteran actor cum politician, Kenneth Okonkwo has predicted that the ministerial list of President Bola Tinubu would be filled with political loyalists and jobbers.
OsunDailyNG reports that the president is expected, by law, to forward the list of ministerial nominees to the National Assembly 60 days from the date he takes the oath of office.
The administration of Tinubu was inaugurated on May 29, when former President Muhammadu Buhari handed over the mantle of leadership to him.
Going by the constitutional provision of the 60 days, the President is left with about 6 days to constitute his cabinet.
Speaking on the much-awaited list via a post on Twitter, Okonkwo expressed his lack of confidence in Tinubu’s choice of candidates.
He opined that the proposed ministers would be recycled old religious and ethnic bigots whose only qualification would be their ability to rig elections
He wrote, “Waiting for the ministerial list? You will see a list of political loyalists and political jobbers. Recycled old religious and ethnic bigots whose only qualification will be their ability to rig elections for the failed, insensitive party in power. Can the rubber stamp NASS.
“Check this perfidy? Your guess is as good as mine.”
