Special Adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on media and publicity, Femi Adesina has given assurance that the President will not neglect any part of the country in the current federal appointments.
Adesina, who reacted to a floury of ourcries over the Thursday appointment of key officers of the Buhari government made it clear that the President will eventually balance the federal appointments.
“Nobody can fault the fact that the persons appointed were appointed on merits. In terms of the spread, the President has prerogative to appoint and he knows there is federal character. I am sure that there will be balance in the future. These are still early days. At the end of the day, we will have a balance.”
Adesina said that by the time more appointments are made, it will balance out, adding that the President is trying to get the very best of Nigerians.
“The issue of key positions and no key positions should not be the issue. He gave a deadline of September for the appointment of ministers and he will keep to it.” [myad]
