If i do not name my ministers by September 30th, you can ask me questions - Buhari

At a joint press conference with the president of Ghana, John Mahama, in Accra Ghana yesterday, the president of Nigeria Muhammadu Buhari, insisted that members of his cabinet, would be made known to the public, on or before 30th of this month.

Speaking through his Senior Special adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, in a statement, the President as said, “After I was sworn-in, I said I will have my cabinet in September. I expect that Nigerians should ask me questions after the 30th of September if I do not do so,”

The President, spoke amid growing concern that he might not name his cabinet members at the end of the month, owing to the fact that the National Assembly, would only resume from it recess at the end of the month.

The President, also praised the effort of the Nigeria Military, in collaboration with The Multi - National Joint Task Force in combating crime in North - Eastern part of the country. Stating that ever since he assumed duty of the President of the federation, remarkable success have been achieved in the fight against the Islamic Sect Boko Haram.

He said, “The first thing I did after I came into office was to reorganise the military and clear orders were given to them in terms of retraining,
re-equipping and redeployment of troops.

“In the North-East, the military is gaining ground and Boko Haram has been limited to the Sambisa Forest.

“Internally Displaced Persons are gradually moving back home and they are being reintegrated into their respective communities.”
