Paul Ibe, Spokesperson of Atiku
Abubakar, has reacted to President Muhammadu Buhari’s ministerial nomination
list sent to the Senate for approval.
Ibe accused Buhari of deflecting
the attention of the country from the clash between Shi’ite and police with the
release of the ministerial list.
He said Buhari used his 43-man
ministerial list to deflect the narrative of the ‘avoidable’ death of about 13
persons during a shiites protest against the continued detention of their
leader, Ibrahim El-Zakzaky.
“Buhari releases ministerial list
ostensibly to deflect the narrative of the avoidable deaths following the
Shiites protest of Monday,” Ibe tweeted.
The protest on Monday, July 22,
claimed the life of a deputy police commissioner, Umar Usman, who was in charge
of operations at the Federal Territory Police Command, a journalist with
Channels Television Precious Owolabi and about 11 Shiites.
President of the Senate, Ahmed
Lawan, had confirmed that Buhari sent list of Ministerial nominees to the
senate for approval.
He had confirmed the receipt of the
list during plenary session and went on to reel out the names.
Among the ministerial nominees,
Buhari listed former Ministers such as Chris Ngige, Hadi Sirika, Rotimi
Amaechi, Adamu Adamu, Mohammed Adamu, Babatunde Fashola and Lai Mohammed.
Others in the list are Uche Ogah,
Emeka Nwajuiba, Sadiya Farouk, Musa Bello, Godswill Akpabio, Sharon Ikeazor,

Also, Timipre Sylva, Adamu Adamu,
Shewuye (Borno), Isa Pantami, Gbemi Saraki, Ramatu Tijani, Clement Abam were
also declared as part of the nominees.

Mad man enraged. When Buhari had not submitted ministerial list, they criticized him for not; now hat he did, they said he is diverting attention. What exactly can Buhari do without critics?
