A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Samuel Bello, has described the redeployment of Abubakar Momoh to the Ministry of Niger Delta as placing a square peg in a square hole.
Bello, House of Assembly APC candidate for Akoko-Edo North Constituency in the concluded 2023 general elections, claimed in his congratulatory message that the 62-year-old Edo politician possesses the virtues that will transform the region.
His congratulatory letter to the Minister read; “As an engineer, Momoh knows the challenges facing the region; as a politician and a former federal lawmaker, you know what the people of Niger Delta need to better the region.
“As a thorough breed and refined gentleman, we are assured that justice will be served. I trust you to make an impact through your visionary leadership towards meeting the needs of a region that bears the burden of the country,” Bello’s message read.
President Bola Tinubu had on Sunday approved the redeployment of Abubakar Momoh from the Federal Ministry of Youth to the Federal Ministry of Niger Delta Development.
The Presidency statement noted that the Federal Ministry of Youth is to be re-assigned to a minister-designate soon.
