Full List: Presidency Replies Ndume, Releases All Tinubu’s Appointments Since 2023, With South East Having Least Appointments

 


The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Public Communication, Sunday Dare, has list all President Bola Ahmed Tinubu appointment since the beginning of his tenure.


Dare was reacting to Senator Ali Ndume’s latest statement accusing Tinubu of failing to adhere to the principle of federal character with his appointments.


In a statement on his 𝕏 handle, the presidential aide stated that Tinubu is a detribalised leader.


He said: “His antecedents before he even became president speak to this fact. As Lagos Governor, President Tinubu populated his government with competent hands both from within and outside Lagos not minding which tribe you come from.


“As President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu remains the same man who is not blinded by the cloak of tribe or religion. He understands that the mandate he won is from the six geopolitical zones of the country and therefore knows that he bears the responsibility to carry every section along to build a very strong nation.


“People tend to isolate new appointments so far made by the President to examine them with a tribal lens but it is too early to conclude that appointments are lopsided. Tinubu has barely completed two years in office yet, there are plenty more appointments still coming.”


Sunday Dare said a more expansive view of key federal appointments across major government institutions and agencies shows that the President is on the right track as far as Federal character is concerned.


According to the former Sports Minister, a glance at the list of 134 federal appointments he released shows that the Northern part of this country has a total of 71 appointments compared to 63 for the entire South.


He said: “When you break down the 63 positions given to the South, the South West leads marginally with 26 slots while the South South has 21 positions. The South East with five states has 16 positions.


“So, if we carry out an unbiased analysis, you’ll see that there is no cause for alarm.”
