Following the uproar that has trailed President Muhammadu Buhari’s latest appointments into key federal positions, the presidency, has assured that the appointments will spread round the country soon and it wouldn't be a Northern affair as speculated.
Presidential spokesman, Femi Adesina while answering questions on a live radio programme in Abuja yesterday, said
“No body can fault the fact that the persons appointed were appointed on merits. In terms of the spread, the President has the prerogative on appointment and he knows there is federal character. I’m sure there will be balance in the future”. These are still early days, at the end of the day we will have a balance. Don’t let’s forget that some of the positions are by election.”
“By the time more appointments are made, there will be balance, 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 assure
