CABINET RESHUFFLE: Three Of Tinubu's Loyalist Makes President Buhari's New Ministerial List; Fashola Dropped! (SEE NAMES)

-

President Muhammadu Buhari is set to compensate loyalists of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu with ministerial positions.

A highly placed source in the APC revealed to Naija247news that Mr.Buhari is set to compensate Tinubu for the losses he incurred and suffered while supporting his associates in various positions both in the federal and state levels.

The source said Buhari will use the imminent change of some cabinet members to include some of Tinubu’s ‘boys’ in his government to placate the former Lagos state governor.

Tinubu’s loyalists who could make the new list of ministers are

1. Dr Olusegun Abraham (the APC candidate backed by Tinubu, who lost out in the Ondo polls)

2. Honourable James Faleke (A House of Representatives member who lost out to the power play in Kogi state) and

3. Mr Wale Edun ( a former commissioner of finance in Lagos state under Tinubu)



The source said: “Dr Olusegun Abraham will replace Professor Claudius Omoyele Daramola, who is from Ondo state and have been somewhat invincible in the Federal Executive Council. But he (Abraham) will be given a better portfolio.’’

Professor Daramola is the current minister of state for Niger Delta.

“Faleke will replace the late Ocholi as the Kogi state minister while Edun will replace Fashola, who Buhari is now considering to appoint as the SGF following the scandal Babachir Lawal is currently enmeshed in.”

Another source who confirmed the story, said: ‘’Baba (Buhari) knows Tinubu is an asset and he cannot toy with him politically.

Independent of the United Kingdom reported on Friday that researchers combined two innovative HIV vaccines with a drug usually used to treat cancer in the trial, conducted over three years at the IrsiCaixa Aids Research Institute in Barcelona. After receiving the treatment, the virus was undetectable in five out of 24 participants and its spread was stopped by their immune systems, reported the New Scientist. One of them has been drug-free for seven months. Around 18 million people – half of all those living with HIV around the world – take ART to slow the progression of the infection, according to the UN. But these drugs are expensive and can cause unpleasant side effects. Patients have to remember to take them every day, sometimes over their entire lives. Mitchell Warren, executive dire...

Nigeria's imediate past minister of Finance ,Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala has been indicted by the Nigerian senate over a N1.7t loss in revenue. According to the Senate Ad Hoc Committee on Alleged Misuse, Under-Remittance and Other Fraudulent Activities, revenue agencies short-changed the Federal Government to the tune of N1.7tn as unremitted revenue generated between 2012 and 2016. The panel blamed it on a memo by a former Minister of Finance, Mrs. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, who allegedly issued the memo to the agencies to remit 25 per cent of revenue they generated to the Federal Government and spend 75 per cent on their expenditures. An interim report by the committee chaired by Senator Olamilekan Adeola, details this. The panel said the amount to be remitted to the Federal Government during the period by 93 agencies it investigated was N21.5tn. It alleged that 25 of the 93 agencies covered defrauded the government of a total of N1,695,585,887,406.
