President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday, threatened to sack any
of his cabinet members who fail to deliver on the specific mandate of his or
her ministry as his administration settles down to the business of governance.
Tinubu handed down the threat while declaring the 2023
Cabinet Retreat for Ministers, Presidential Aides, Permanent Secretaries and
Top Government Functionaries open at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Speaking on the theme: “Delivering on the Renewed Hope
Agenda”, Tinubu said his administration was not oblivious to the challenges
ahead but there must be a clear-cut decision and action plan by all
stakeholders to wriggle out of the problems.
The President also stated that since becoming President, he had graciously accepted all challenges and liabilities thrown at him by his predecessor.
He said there would be no room for excuses, hence the reason
he took his time to assemble all the best brains in his cabinet, who can aid
the administration to meet the yearnings and aspirations of the citizens.
The President said he had directed the Special Adviser on
Policy Coordination, Bala Hadiza to head the Result and Delivery Unit, through
which key performance indicators of all ministerial appointees would be
monitored.
He said at the end of the retreat all ministers would sign a
bond of understanding to track those performing to expectation or not.
“If you are performing nothing to fear, if you miss the
objectives, we review, if you have no performance you leave us, no one is an
island because the buck stops on my desk,” Tinubu stated at the retreat.
Among the key priorities the Tinubu administration wants the
cabinet members to focus on are food security, ending poverty, economic growth
and job creation, access to capital, inclusivity: drawing on skill base,
security, fairness and rule of law and anti-corruption.
