President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday surprised many ministers as he arrived for the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting 10 minutes earlier than the commencement time.
Buhari, who arrived the Council Chamber at 9:50am with his Aide-de-Camp for the meeting slated for 10:00am met only 19 ministers out of the 36 ministers when he got to the meeting venue.
The President, who noted that he came too early for the meeting, immediately called for the rendition of the National Anthem and also asked two cabinet members to say the Christian and Muslim prayer.
Shortly after, journalists were excused and the meeting went into closed session, some members including Vice President Yemi Osinbajo; Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari; National Security Adviser, Babagana Monguno; Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige; and Minister of State, Foreign Affairs, Khadija Bukar Abba; arrived.
They were however not late as they arrived at about 9.55am.
Many of them were seen checking their time and rushing into the chamber when they discovered that the meeting had started.
Some other ministers however arrived after the 10am scheduled take off time. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

A leader by example. He doesn't believe in the so called African time.Next time he will send them home or close the door, as Kofi Anan said his father used to do when he has a meeting and it is time,he close the door and no one can join again. That is why Kofi was brought up disciplined.
