“I was a Minister 16 years ago and I know how tasking and challenging it can be” – Fani-Kayode to Tinubu’s Ministerial Nominees

Controversial chieftain of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode has finally reacted to the lists of ministerial nominees submitted to the Senate by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

You will recall that the president had last Thursday transmitted the list of the first batch to the upper chamber of the National Assembly for screening.

The final list containing 19 names was read at the floor of the house on Wednesday by the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio.

Members of opposition parties had mocked Fani-Kayode, the former Minister of Aviation over his absence in the lists.

FFK who was missing on the first list has, however, congratulated the nominees saying he wishes them the very best in their service to the nation.

In a tweet on Thursday morning, the former Minister declared that nominees are all excellent choices made by the president.

Congratulations to all those in both the first and second Ministerial lists of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu (@officialABAT).

They are all excellent choices and I wish them the very best in their service to our great nation.

I was a Minister 16 years ago and I know how taxing and challenging it can be.

We must remember them in our prayers and ask God to guide them in all their endeavours as they make difficult choices for our nation and assist Mr. President.

God will use them to take our great nation to a higher level.” FFK tweeted.
