Not all ministers will have full control of ministry – Presidency
President Muhammadu Buhari will assign portfolios to all his 36 ministers, the president’s spokesman, Garba Shehu has said, noting that, not all ministers will have full control of the ministries.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity made the clarification in an interview with Daily Trust.
The president had reportedly said in an interview with Channels TV last week that not all the 36 nominees would be ministers as some of them would only sit in the cabinet in order to meet the constitutional provision which stipulates that each state of the federation must have a representative in the cabinet.
But the presidential aide stated that all the 36 ministerial nominees that had been screened by the Senate would be assigned portfolios.
Shehu clarified that what President Buhari meant was that not all the ministers would have full control of the ministries.
He said the president would retain the structure in which there are substantive ministers and ministers of state.
According to the presidential aide, it is not possible to have a more ministries than the number of ministers.
“What the president meant (in the interview granted) was that not all the ministers in his cabinet will have the full control of the ministries. You know it is not possible to have the number of ministries more than the number of ministers. Even former President Goodluck Jonathan had 28 ministries and 42 ministers.
“So, what the president meant was that some of his cabinet members would be ministers of state,” Shehu said.
