The Special Adviser to the President-elect on Media said he did not his principal more than three weeks to form his cabinet as governor, stressing that two months is too long for him to form his cabinet.

He stated that a month is enough for any serious government to form its cabinet and put a structure of government in place after the swearing-in.

He said: “I told you in an earlier interview that it didn’t take Asiwaju more than three weeks to form his cabinet as governor. That was as at that time. I think 60 days is even too much. A month, maximum, is enough for any serious government to form its cabinet and put a structure of government in place after the swearing-in.”
