DAILY POST reports that they took the oath of office at 12:15 pm at the Council Chamber of the State House before the start of the Federal Executive Council meeting which Tinubu is presiding over.

On September 17, 2023, President Tinubu nominated Ibrahim and Olawande as Minister of Youth and Minister of State for Youth, respectively. He also requested the Senate to screen Balarabe Lawal as minister from Kaduna. Lawal, who served as secretary to the government under former Governor Nasir El-Rufai, replaced his principal in Tinubu’s cabinet as minister of environment. Ibrahim, 37, hails from Kwara State. She is a medical doctor, politician and development expert and advocate of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Before her recent appointment, she served as the National President of the APC Young Women Forum. Olawande, 34, is a community development expert and youth leader within the All Progressives Congress.

By • Olalekan Fagbade JUST IN; Why I accepted to work with President Tinubu- FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Nyesom Wike has disclosed the reason why he accepted to work as a Minister under the administration of President Bola Tinubu. Wike noted that President Tinubu has the capacity and political will to direct affairs of the country. Wike, who speaking at a briefing on Friday, said leadership is one of the problems confronting Nigeria. According to him: “One of the reasons I accepted to work with Mr. President is because [of] capacity and the political will to do those things that people are afraid of doing. “One of the problems in this country is leadership, so many people don’t want to take action. There is no action that you take that everybody will be [happy]” Read Also: FG raises N652bn from Sukuk bond The minister said upon assuming office, he discovered that a law establishing a civil service commission for the FCT had been enacted but remained unimplemented. He then brought this to Tinubu’s attention, and Tinubu approved its initiation. “In 2018, the national assembly passed a bill into law which was assented by the former Vice-President Osinbajo when he was acting as the president. [The law says] FCT should have a civil service commission. Everybody has been running away. “Nobody wants to [implement it]. Nobody has the political will to implement it. Everybody is saying ‘if I’m the head of service, it will reduce my power’. No. It is about the institution. The president will come and go. “The minister will come and go, so also the head of service will come and go. If the national assembly passes a bill into law which is assented by Mr President, what is wrong in implementing that law?” #WhyIacceptedtoworkwithPresidentTinububyWike

Reshuffle cabinet, lawyer tells Ondo acting gov

An Ondo State-based legal practitioner, Mr Allen Sowore, has advised the state Acting Governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, to use the power conferred on him by Governor Rotimi Akeredolu to reshuffle the state cabinet. Akeredolu transmitted the power to Aiyedatiwa to act as the governor while he (Akeredolu) proceeded on medical leave to attend to his ill health outside the country. But it was gathered that there was internal rancor within the state cabinet following the absence of the governor. Sowore, in a statement issued on Friday, frowned at the activities of some members of Akeredolu’s cabinet, whom he described as a ‘cabal’, saying they were allegedly frustrating the acting governor from performing his duties as stated in the constitution. the statement was titled ‘Akeredolu’s medical leave: before Ondo State skid into full anarchy and mobocracy’. Quoting Section 190 of the 1999 Constitution (as amended), the lawyer said, “Whenever the governor transmits to the Speaker of the House of Assembly a written declaration that he is proceeding on vacation or that he is otherwise unable to discharge the functions of his office until he transmits to the Speaker of the House of Assembly a written declaration to the contrary such functions shall be discharged by the deputy governor as acting governor.” “But sadly, with a deep sense of patriotism, we regret to note the satanic activities of some members of the ‘Ondo State Cabal’ to sabotage and subvert the acting governor’s effort to assume the full and smooth running of government and its machinery while Mr Governor is away as stipulated by law. “They don’t want the Aiyedatiwa to feature, attend or even appear at any serious state function outside the state. They want to cage him so that he will not have a national connection and recognition as the acting governor. “The surreptitious sponsored blackmails to smear and besmirch the reputation of the acting governor in some sections of the media should not be allowed a breath in a sane society. Not even a state prided as the intellectual plinth of South Western Nigeria.” “I will not advise or counsel the acting governor to sack or terminate the appointment of any public office holder in the state like the then Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo did to the former Director General of State Security Service, Lawal Daura. He will be playing at the gallery. “Appropriately, a cabinet reshuffle and rejig of the state cabinet may be desirable to ensure the requisite unity of command in the instant circumstance. As critical stakeholders, we simply can not afford to look away while the state skid into full anarchy and mobocracy.” Read the full article
