President Muhammad Buhari
At least 6, 000 appointments would be made by President Muhammadu Buhari.
In an interview with Sahara TV on Saturday, the Senior Special Assistant to the
President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, stated that Buhari would be fair
to all. He also called for patience reassuring Nigerians that there are more than
6,000 appointments the president is yet to make.

Buhari, who recently sacked the country’s service chiefs that served under ex-
President Goodluck Jonathan and dissolved the boards of many Federal
Government parastatals across the country, has been criticised for not
constituting his cabinet and appointing people into various boards of
parastatals.

The President is also being pilloried for allegedly favouring the North in the
appointment he had made so far. But, “I think President Muhammadu Buhari is
sensitive to the diversity of this country. He has more than 6,000 appointments
to make. Therefore, why would anybody use less than 10 appointments to judge
the President on this matter? Again, it boils down to the lack of patience. This
man is an experienced leader. Nigeria stands to gain from the accumulation of
wisdom that he has garnered over his long life on earth. He has sworn to an
oath that he’s a President of all.
“This government will make as many as 6,000 appointments. And he is bound,
even if he doesn’t wish it, by the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
to reflect federal character.”
