today August 28th, Special Adviser to President
Buhari on media and publicity, Femi Adesina,
said President Buhari will balance his
appointments in future. Many Nigerians were
taken aback after Buhari announced key
appointments yesterday with majority of those
appointed from the Northern region of Nigeria.
"Nobody can fault the fact that the
persons appointed were appointed on
merits. In terms of the spread, the
President has prerogative to appoint and
he knows there is federal character. I am
sure that there will be balance in the
future.
These are still early days. At the end of the
day, we will have a balance. By the time
more appointments are made, it will
balance out. The President is trying to get
the very best of Nigerians. The issue of key
positions and no key positions should not
be the issue. He gave a deadline of
September for the appointment of
ministers and he will keep to it."he said
