President Muhammadu Buhari will head Nigeria's Ministry of Petroleum for 18 months before appointing a substantive minister for the ministry.
According to PUNCH, President Buhari made the disclosure while meeting with some members of his political party, the All Progressives Congress, in Abuja.
Speaking anonymously, a source present at the meeting said, ''At the meeting we had recently, we discussed the issues of portfolios and other matters. The President said he was going to handle the Ministry of Petroleum himself for about 18 months.
''He said it was after this that he would appoint a substantive minister for the ministry. He said he would only personally handle the reorganisation of the much-important ministry. Besides, he said the ministry needed to be reformed and be rid of corruption. He promised to sanitise the ministry.
