On Thursday, October 24, Bashir Ahmad, the former media aide to the immediate past President Muhammadu Buhari, revealed that a possible second cabinet reshuffle by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is imminent.
Recall that Tinubu rejigged his cabinet on Wednesday, October 23. In the process, he sacked some ministers and made fresh appointments.
The president also made some significant changes to Nigeria’s ministerial structure. The Ministry of Niger Delta Development and the Ministry of Sports Development were scrapped.
This was announced at the latest Federal Executive Council meeting in Abuja. The development follows the presidency’s earlier indication of a possible cabinet reshuffle, as the ministers have been in their roles for over a year.
