Oyo State: Governor Makinde’s Potential Influence:
Sources suggest that Governor Seyi Makinde may have the opportunity to present his preferred candidates for ministerial positions in Oyo State.
However, this proposal faces resistance within the APC, as party officials believe they should reap the benefits of their efforts during Makinde’s re-election.
Ogun State: Uncertainty Surrounding Nominees:
It remains unclear who will be nominated from Ogun State, as former Governor Ibikunle Amosun and former Speaker of the House of Representatives Dimeji Bankole reportedly show interest in ministerial roles.
Anambra and Enugu States: Advocating for Genuine Party Members:
The Anambra State Chapter of the APC advocates for appointing genuine party members as ministers.
Dr. Valentine Oliobi, the state Publicity Secretary, believes this would boost morale among party members.
In Enugu State, Dr. Josef Onoh, former spokesman for Tinubu in the South-East, is considered a favorite due to his consistent defense of Tinubu in the region.
Conclusion:
As anticipation grows, the cabinet selections by President Tinubu will not only unveil his strategy but also provide insight into the political future of different regions in Nigeria.
