ABUJA – President Mohammadu Buhari
will appointment Ministers only when it is feasible, his Special Adviser on
Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina said Tuesday.
Speaking exclusively to Vanguard in
reaction to massive public concern on why the president has not formed his
cabinet, Adesina said that the president is preparing the grounds for the
Ministers, saying that they would be appointed at the fullness of time.
He said: “The appointment of
Ministers is constitutional because the constitution prescribes that there must
be a Minister from at least one state of the federation and President Mohammdu
Buhari will do what is constitutional. So, he will constitute a cabinet.
“But then when he does it is his
prerogative. He is the one who will determine when he needs that cabinet. But
for now, he has said that he wants to lay a proper foundation for the
administration and that’s why he has been working with bureaucrats; the various
Permanent Secretaries.
“For the past two week and still
going forward, the Permanent Secretaries have been briefing him on the state of
their ministries and then, I am sure at the fullness of time, the Ministers
will be appointed.”
