All reports on ministerial list mere fabrications – Alake

  • Says Tinubu will make it known when ready

From Juliana Taiwo-Obalonye, Abuja

The Special Adviser on Special Duties, Communications and Strategy, Dele Alake, Thursday described as mere fabrication reports in the media on the much anticipated ministerial list of President Bola Tinubu’s cabinet.

Responding to a question on the speculated list out in the media, Alake told State House Correspondents, that President Tinubu whose buck stops on his table will make the list of nominees known when he is good and ready.

He said: “About the ministerial list, the simple truth is that, you know, this is an executive presidency, we’re not running a parliamentary system. So the President, the buck stops on his table, and he decides when it’s fit and proper for him to make his cabinet list.

“So, we are not unaware of all the speculations, and innuendos and rumours, all kinds of things in the media. Now, I as a media man, I chuckled to myself that people just want to sell, so they just fabricate.

“I can tell you all of those things you’ve been reading in the media are mere fabrications. There is no iota of truth in all of those things. When the President is good and ready, you will be the first to know about his intentions.”
