Recall that the former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Adamu, before his resignation revealed that President Bola Tinubu was yet to unveil his new ministers because he was doing extensive consultation.
He said, “The president has just started. And he is doing his extensive consultation before coming up with his nominees for ministers.
“The nomination of the ministers will come first. They will go through their screening until they are pronounced after they have been submitted by Mr. President.
“And Mr. President will formally appoint his ministers and swear them in.
“Only after doing that will he disclose each of them to the country to know which minister is going to which ministry, and how many ministries we are going to have.”
