How Tinubu Will Reshuffle His Cabinet – Presidency

The presidency has given more insight into the cabinet reshuffle set to be done by President Bola Tinubu.

Speaking on Wednesday during a press briefing at the State House in Abuja, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Digital/New Media, O’Tega Ogra, said the decision by Tinubu to reshuffle his cabinet would be based on empirical evidence of the ministers’ performance.

He said the reshuffling would be based on the review of the periodic assessment carried out on each Minister’s performance.

“The President’s decision to reshuffle his cabinet is also based on empirical evidence. You know, he had said when he was speaking at the retreat for the ministers that they were going to have periodic reviews and the decisions that are extracted from these reviews will be used to make that final decision,” Ogra said.

Ogra also confirmed an earlier submission by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, of an imminent cabinet reshuffle.

He added that the timing of the reshuffle is strictly based on the prerogative of the President alone.

“I know he has gotten a couple of reports, and as Mr. Onanuga said, when he is ready to do that, he will,” Ogra added.
