Daniel Bwala, an aide to the 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has said only six of the 28 ministerial nominees forwarded to the National Assembly for screening can be trusted.
Speaking on the ministerial list during an interview on Channels TV’s Politics Today, Bwala said he expected the President would have carefully selected capable hands that would give confidence to the people.
Bwala stated that he could vouch for a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Lateef Fagbemi, and other ministerial nominees that are new to governance.
He said: “I honestly expected that Mr President would have carefully selected individuals that are capable of giving confidence to the people. I think you can’t trust more than six people on the list. I can vouch for Mr. Lateef Fagbemi, SAN. Then you have other new entrances, which, to be fair, you cannot judge them when they are not given an opportunity.
“How can somebody who was a minister then became a governor for two terms and go back to become a minister? When you finished part two and went for part three and ended up graduating, did you come back to your university?
“It is repugnant to natural justice, equity and good conscience for somebody who was a minister and a former two-term governor to come back to the ministry. There are people in his state.”
