In preparation for naming his cabinet, President Bola Tinubu has received counsel from Daniel Bwala, an advisor to 2023 Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential contender Atiku Abubakar.
Bwala asserted that Tinubu has no intentions for Nigeria if former governors make up more than 10% of his cabinet.
In Nigeria, he pointed out, 90% of former governors were unsuccessful while in government.
Tweeting, Bwala charged Tinubu to inject new faces into his cabinet if he wants to move Nigeria forward.
He wrote: “If the names of former governors in his cabinet constitute more than 10 percent of the whole, then we would know he doesn’t have plans for Nigeria.
“Firstly, 90 percent of former governors in Nigeria have failed in governing their states where they commanded absolute powers.
“Some former governors have even gone on to fail as ministers in the past administration.
“When he sits in his cabinet meeting, there shouldn’t be old faces of the past administration in the room.
“He has more than enough manpower if he seriously wants to move this nation forward for at least 6 months remaining.”
