The Presidency has praised the diligence of the Senate in confirming the 43 ministerial nominees whilst also ensuring a swift and efficient process.
President Muhammadu Buhari in a statement released by his Senior Special Media spokesman Mallam Garba Shehu said the people of Nigeria want results, and with this list of 43 ministerial nominees, we are confident they shall be delivered.
He said:
“Specific portfolios shall be assigned with the inauguration of the cabinet. This is a fine, capable and committed group of individuals. Working together, they shall help achieve what we all want and labour toward: a secure, prosperous, corruption-free nation in which nobody is left behind, and talents can flourish”
The statement released also praised the openess and how the Senate handled the whole process, saying:
“The executive approaches this 9th National Assembly with a renewed spirit of openness and enthusiasm. Where once we sometimes found impasse, we welcome collaboration; where once suspicion took hold, together, we shall demonstrate mutual trust.
Scrutiny should never mean deadlock but proper governance. And with a new swathe of national legislators and ministers, we are confident the executive and the legislature can – in partnership – unleash the change Nigerians deserve” he said.
