Adebayo Shittu Questions Tinubu’s Cabinet Reshuffle Logic
Adebayo Shittu, a former Minister of Communications in Nigeria, recently shared his views on President Bola Tinubu’s cabinet shake-up.
In his statement, Shittu suggested that the reshuffling of Tinubu’s cabinet was not necessarily driven by the aim of appointing superior minds to key positions.
He implied that other factors, such as political considerations, might have influenced the changes rather than a strict focus on selecting the most qualified or capable individuals.
Shittu’s comments come amid widespread discussions about the effectiveness and intentions behind the cabinet changes.
While some view the reshuffle as a strategic move to improve governance and ensure the success of Tinubu’s administration, others, like Shittu, have expressed skepticism, questioning whether it will truly bring about meaningful improvements in governance.
His critique touches on the broader concern in Nigerian politics, where cabinet appointments are sometimes seen as being based on political alliances, regional balance, and party loyalty rather than merit or expertise.
