According to Vanguard, President Bola Tinubu will announce his ministerial nominees as soon as he is ready, his special adviser on special assignments, communications, and strategy, Dele Alake, said.
When the President is good and ready, You will be the first to know of his intentions, Alake said when briefing State House correspondents at the presidential mansion in Abuja on Thursday.
When asked about the list speculated, Alake replied that Tinubu would announce the list of nominees when he was ready and ready.
He said: As for the ministerial list, the simple truth is that it is an executive presidency.
We do not operate a parliamentary system.
So the President is left with the money on the table and deciding when it is appropriate and appropriate for him to draw up his cabinet list.
We are not unfamiliar with all the speculation, innuendos and rumors, and all sorts of things that are happening.
Now, as a media guy, I laughed to myself that people just want to sell, so they just fabricate.
There is not a grain of truth in any of these things.
When the president is good and ready, you will be the first to know of his intentions.
The presidential adviser said Tinubu is still within the 60-day window for the president and all governors to appoint their ministers and governors, respectively Commissioners might announce.
In March, Alake, then special adviser to the president-elect, said Tinubu would convene his cabinet within a month of taking office.
Alake said this is in line with the Fifth Amendment, which requires the president-elect and governor-elect to submit the names of their nominees for ministerial and commissionership within 60 days of taking the oath of office for confirmation by the state Senate or House of Assembly.
He said: I told you in a previous interview that it took Asiwaju no more than three weeks to form his cabinet as governor.
It was like back then. I think 60 days is even too much.
One month at most is enough for any serious government to form its cabinet and set up a governing structure after it is sworn in.
