Tinubu told offices he shouldn’t appoint politicians in his cabinet

President Bola Tinubu has been advised to be weary of appointing politicians into his cabinet.

A spokesman of the Atiku Abubakar 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Daniel Bwala, listed five offices Tinubu should not appoint politicians to occupy.

Bwala, in a tweet, wrote: “No 16th biggest test would the appointment of these:

1. National Security Adviser

2. Minister of the economy

3. Director General of SSS and NIA

4. Minister of Petroleum

5. Central Bank Governor

“He must not appoint a politician or quasi-politician for any of these roles, or else he will repeat history.”

Tinubu, who was inaugurated on May 29 in Abuja, is yet to unveil members of his cabinet.

He defeated Atiku, Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP), and Rabiu Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).

However, Atiku and Obi are contesting Tinubu’s victory in court because they claim the election was flawed.
