The Presidency has said President Bola Tinubu’s ministerial list is not ready.
Dele Alake, the Special Adviser to the President on Special Duties, Communications, and Strategy, disclosed this during a briefing with journalists at the State House in Abuja.
The presidential aide urged Nigerians to disregard the rumours surrounding the awaited ministerial list.
“About the ministerial list, there is no iota of truth in all of those things. When the President is good and ready, you will be the first to know about his intentions.
“I can tell you all of those things you’ve been reading in the media are mere fabrications. This is an executive presidency; we’re not running a parliamentary system. So, the President, the bucks stops on his table, and he decides when it’s fit and proper for him to make his cabinet list”, Alake said.
Tinubu, a former Lagos State governor, was inaugurated as Nigeria’s 16th President on May 29, 2023, at Eagle Square, Abuja.
Meanwhile, the constitution gives the President 60 days to constitute his cabinet, Tinubu is yet to announce his ministers to form the Federal Executive Council five weeks into his administration. He has, however, appointed some special advisers and new service chiefs.
