But for those who crave the enthronement of mediocrity to aid and abet the culture of incompetence or the regime of laissez faire in the management of the petroleum sector, the prospects of Jedy-Agba emerging as Buhari’s choice for the critical sector cannot resonate well with them. Regardless of the prognosis of possibilities or otherwise, Jedy-Agba is one of the few “technocrats” in a list that has been largely dubbed “political” by critics.

His administrative savoir faire and legerdemain had been writ-large in his pub

Following the ministerial list transmitted to the National Assembly by President Mohammadu Buhari on Tuesday and the ongoing screening, a Non -Governmental Organisation, Blossom Africa Initiative has urged the president to include more women in his cabinet.

PUBLIC DISCLAIMER!!! RE-NANS RECOMMENDS COMRADE CHINONSO OBASI AS SENIOR SPECIAL ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT ON YOUTHS AND STUDENTS MATTER.

The sponsor of the publication apart from being a renowned opposition to the government of President Muhammadu Buhari, former factional President of NANS (sponsored to divide NANS) also in 2019 served as a mobilizer for Atiku-Obi Presidential Campaign Council where he worked for the candidature of Atik
