'Betta Edu is gone' – Presidency says suspended minister not coming back

The Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, stated this during an interview on Channels Television‘s Sunday Politics on October 27, 2024.

Last week, Tinubu effected a sweeping cabinet reshuffle, showing five ministers the exit door and nominating seven others for appointment pending confirmation by the Senate.

He also scrapped two ministries, including the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs and Sports Development Ministry and merged two others as the Ministry of Tourism will henceforth be under the Ministry of Culture and Creative Economy.
