ALAS! EXPO OF THE NAMES OF MINISTERS WHO MADE IT TO "THE LIST".

Last month September has been a month of political fervor in Nigeria, starting with the whole brouhaha over the Senate President arraignment before the code of conduct tribunal and finally ending only last night with the presentation of THE LIST of ministerial nominees as promised to be done by President Muhamdu Buhari before the independence day celebration, which is today. Alot of Nigerians have had mixed feeling over the president's decision to take so long a time to do so but just as in all things, i can authoritatively tell you that though the names of those on the list are meant to be kept a secret to the Nigerian public only after it has been presented to the senate chamber but "somehow somehow" we already have a little expo on who and who are on the list...lol....check them out below.

Apart from former Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi and his counterpart in Lagos, Babatunde Fashola who were among the names forwarded to the senate.

Others in the list are, former governors, Anambra, Chris Ngige; Abia State, Ogbonaya Onu, Ekiti, Kayode Fayemi; a one time APC governorship flag bearer in Taraba, Aisha Alhassan,

Also said to be on the list are Kayode Fayemi, a former governor of Ekiti State; a former Governor of Anambra State, Chris Ngige; and a one-time Governor of Abia State, Ogbonaya Onu; Amina Mohammed; A former commissioner of Ogun State, Kunle Adeosun; Malami Abubakar (SAN) and the Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, Ibe Kachikwu

Kachikwu’s appointment  will be to function as the junior minister taking charge of day-to-day affairs in the sector while Buhari oversees it as stated by him at the New York on Tuesday, while attending the UN General Assembly, that he, Buhari would be minister of petroleum resources.

Though  instead of thirty – six names, President Buhari sent twenty – one names as Ministerial nominees to the Senate President, with plans to send others very early on Tuesday before plenary session.

Senate President Saraki received the long awaited ministerial list from the Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari at 4.59 pm.

The Chief of Staff to the President was accompanied to Saraki’s office by the Special Adviser to the President on National Assembly Matters, Senator Ita Enang.

There was a new twist to the submission of Ministerial list to the Senate as it was received directly by the Senate President and brought by the Chief of Staff to the President as against the tradition where the office of the Senate President through the registry receives it from the Special Adviser to the President on National Assembly Matter( Senate).
