Ex-Governors Who Should Not Be In Tinubu’s Cabinet

In a few days’ time, speculations would begin on the composition of President Bola Tinubu’s cabinet as many would expect the president to quickly form his government in view of the enormous task ahead. He already got the approval of the Senate to hire 20 special advisers. After the election of the leadership of the 10th National Assembly, attention will shift to persons likely to be in the cabinet of the president.

Surely, expectations would be high. The president has impressed many Nigerians, including some of his harshest critics, in his last two weeks in office. He’s probably the only elected Nigerian president who was welcomed into office by the threat of a nationwide strike by workers following an unexpected hike in fuel price due to removal of federal government subsidy. But he wasted no time to nip in the bud a workers’ strike that could paralyze the country and increase economic hardship.
