Festus Keyamo can’t from SS

Make them run that guy DNA well he’s from SW

No one from SS behaves like that

This list means there's no longer secret in Government

A few days from now, the authentic list will be published.

So, what do people typically benefit from sharing FAKE NEWS?

I don't think I have gotten a reasonable answer to this question.

I don't share lies.

Fake for sure
It's not your fault,,, I mean the person that posted it, it's from the source you saw the the news

Judekenny:

This shouldn't be a secret.

Oh Lawd!!

From number 1 to 9 on this list are considered the "juciest" ministries in the Nigerian government. Notice how Tinubu carefully handpicked core loyalists for those ministerial roles..😂. You Nigerians are in for a world of looting.

Bellow Matawalle who failed to secure Zamfara state in his 8years as a Governor, is your Minister of State, Defence..😂. Nigerians, you better go and buy guns for yourselves.

Tinubu is already planning for 2027 elections. He doesn't want to hear that one nonsense FCT refused to give him 25% of votes again (this current experience is still stuck in his neck like a fish bone), so he has promoted Nyesom Wike from "Election Rigging Juggernaut" of Rivers state to the Federal level..😂. Dear Abuja residents, our special status dey end on or before 2027 o! Wike no dey take rubbish for elections, so either we change format and show Tinubu whose boss of the FCT, or we simply stay in our homes come the 2027 elections.

Abuja don finish be Dat.... Agbado too dull, you can't put goat and yam together haba.

Wike harvests land for a living... He closed down 2 of the biggest markets to portharcourt just so he could steal the land and succeeded in one while the community vehemently resisted him in the other one.

He takes people's land happily for a living. Minister of fct should someone that is economically focused and less corrupt

Thank God it's out.

Dele Alake is totally false

So what are you insinuating

You think Wike will not deliver

Yet the same people peddling fake news blame government for not performing

hisexcellency34:
Dele Alake is totally false

Dele Alake messed up with his " A Serious Government would nominate Ministers in 1 month" tripe. Only for him to come out at 1 month to say Tinubu has 60 days so Nigerians should stop speculating.

I don't even feel he should have been nominated.

Wow

The slayer of IPOB is truly the FCT minister

Minister of Budget and Financial Planning

Atiku Bagudu

😂😂😂😂

Minister of State for Defence

Bello Matawalle (Former Zamfara Governor)

🙈🙈🙈🙈

Minister of Petroluem

Ahmed Tinubu

(since no one was assigned the portfolio)

Tinubu was just duplicating ministries. I thought he has plans after submitting 48 ministers, the highest in our country ever.

A large and complex United States has only 12 secretaries with all their wealth. But a very poor Nigeria has 48, duplicating most of the responsibilities.

Tinubu will finish this country

Yoruba leads

it doesn't change the fact that tinubu is your president for the next 8yrs, and no igboman will rule Nigeria

Wale Edun's portfolio was a no-brainer.

aremubabs:
If this list is genuine, then I am disappointed.



Many square pegs in round holes.




What would Keyamo be doing in Ministry of Aviation and Aerospace Development?




What would Dele Alake do with Ministry of Mining...?

What was Kema Chikwe's qualification?

Same for Prof. Babalola Aborishade, and Femi Fani-Kayode who were all Aviation Ministers during Obasanjo's 8yrs regime?

What was the relevant qualification of Stella Oduah who was Aviation Minister during the regime of Jonathan?

If this list is genuine, then I am disappointed.



Many square pegs in round holes.




What would Keyamo be doing in Ministry of Aviation and Aerospace Development?




What would Dele Alake do with Ministry of Solid Minerals?

Tinubu is indeed going green; recycling ♻ of old politicians...













This is more like a political compensation, square pegs on round holes

I hope all southeast ministers are given the weakest portfolios

Moral of the story is, get out of your car once in a while to Toast a Girl !!!

Antoeni:
After dropping off his wife with his car. While waiting, a very beautiful young girl alighted from an UBER, a few meters away. The man got out of his car to get the girl's number. This is when the truck crashed into his car.

What's The Moral Lesson?

Lies

Why are you hurt by anything positive?

Why is your soul so black and consumed by a desire for anarchy and chaos?

If this list is correct as reported by Vanguard
Matawalle who's state was overan by bandits and he wan helpless so tey the people kicked him out is the minister of state for Defence.. A joke. A total complete joke

See Adebayo adelabu in power. I don't know what the heck that dude would do in power. Was expecting him in something like finance

All is just to prep him to chop money for 2027 so as to contest Oyo Govornship.

So if you are expecting stable power under Tinubu, just know you ain't getting nothing. It will be all a joke and a ruse

This list is not a list that can develope Nigeria
