President
Muhammadu Buhari may likely say goodbye to all the members of his cabinet
before he is sworn in for a second term.
According to Mr. Femi
Adesina, the Special Adviser, Media and Publicity to the President, Buhari will
likely dissolve his cabinet before his May 29 swearing-in for a second term.
Buhari’s
media aide noted that, “One thing about governance is that the first mandate
was for four years.
“That mandate lapses on May
29, and shortly before May 29, the President is likely going to officially dissolve
the government. That is the way it is usually done.
“He
says thank you to everybody that he has called to work with him and then he
dissolves that government officially.
“Then when he is inaugurated
for a second term, he now reconstitutes government; he appoints his personal
aides, he forms his cabinet, he appoints other people to fill other positions.”
Answering the question as to
whether it would take six months for him to constitute his cabinet as was the
case before, Adesina said the President said, “No, I wouldn’t take that long.”
