Ex-Minister, Adebayo Shittu Warns Tinubu

Former Minister of Communications, Adebayo Shittu has cautioned President Bola Tinubu over the people he appoints as part of his cabinet.

He said: “You cannot trust anybody, even if you are talking of kitchen cabinet.”

“This will be the first time Tinubu would be recruiting people from all parts of the country most of whom he may never have met in life. But he may just be riding on the recommendation, perhaps, of interested power blocs within the party who would give information and sell their candidate for one reason or the other.”

“Mr President has an opportunity to decide what he wants. If you are not there and if he does not tell you exactly what he wants, it would be very difficult but I think one failing in our system in this country is that when people are appointed, or about to be appointed, we don’t have a kind of orientation exercise which perhaps will take a week or two weeks to school those to be given jobs to understand the priorities of their employer.”
