President Bola Tinubu is on the verge of a significant cabinet reshuffle this week, a move aimed at revitalizing his administration with new perspectives and energies.
A high-ranking source close to
the presidency disclosed to the Sunday Tribune that this decision is intended
to address the stagnant performance issues that have marred the current
cabinet’s tenure.
The president, fresh from his
trip to China, is reportedly planning to finalize the dissolution before he
departs for the upcoming United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York.
This timing suggests a
strategic clearing of the deck, enabling him to engage on the international
stage unencumbered by domestic political uncertainties.
Criticism of several ministers’
performances has not gone unnoticed by the presidency.
“President Tinubu is not
satisfied with the performances of a number of his ministers and is determined
to show them the exit door,” the source revealed, indicating that a new list of
candidates is already prepared to take over the soon-to-be-vacant posts.
Speculations about whether the
recent resignation of the presidential spokesperson, Ajuri Ngelale, was linked
to the impending cabinet overhaul were dismissed by insiders.
The source clarified that
Ngelale’s departure was unrelated to the broader administrative changes.
Intriguingly, the reshuffle may
see the return of familiar faces, as a former minister from the Buhari
administration is rumored to be among those considered for a ministerial role.
