Bola Tinubu: When Nigerians should expect president's ministerial list revealed

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu President Bola Ahmed Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu has hit the ground running from his inauguration ground on May 29, and has, thus, increased Nigerians' expectations from his administration with the way he announced that "fuel subsidy is gone".

Following his inauguration in just barely 2 weeks, the new administration of President Tinubu has made some moves that can be considered decisive and nationalistic, such as the signing of the electricity bill.

However, the next thing Nigerians looked forward to from the president was his ministerial list, and that should literarily be expected from Wednesday, June 14, and the next 45 days.

Although some have argued that President should release the names of his expected ministers on time, that was not the case as he could not do that without the inauguration of the 10th National Assembly.

Thus, since Tinubu's ministerial list will have to pass through the national assembly before they could be considered members of his cabinet, Nigerians should start expecting the ministerial list from Wednesday, the second day that the new national assembly will be inaugurated.

Also, the expectation would span between now and the next 45 days. This is due to the fact that the new law mandated new presidents and governors to present a list of their cabinet members within 60 days of their resumption to office.

President Tinubu resumed office on May 29, and he would mark his 60 days in office on Friday, July 28, between which the law required that he should have presented his ministerial list.
