Nigeria - Prof Akin Oyebode, chairman, Office of International Relations, Partnerships and Prospects, University of Lagos has admonished the President to be cautious in selecting the caliber of men and women he will appoint as ministers.
Speaking on the recent appointments made by the president, he said Buhari "is giving ammunition to his opponents. Look at the statement made by Fayose who is not qualified to talk on meritocracy.”
”The message he is putting across is he is irredentist leader of a particular hegemony in Nigeria which is not healthy, dysfunctional and counterproductive. So the earlier he goes back to the drawing board to cut his losses.”
‘”He needs well-owned, competent and incisive people that are going to form his team. This is how modern governance works. Apart from his special advisers and special assistants who you call the spin doctors’’ he said in an interview published by Naij.
"He can’t do it alone. We don’t know who the ministers are. He promised to elect them in September and we can leave by rumors or hearsay. A president is as good as the men and women surrounding him.” he said.
