President Tinubu’s Ministers Are Incompetent, Not Knowledgeable – Senator Jimoh Ibrahim

By Adesina Soyooye

The Senator who represents Ondo South in the 10th Senate, Jimoh Ibrahim, has dismissed some Ministers in President Bola Tinubu’s Cabinet as incompetent. To him, the President does not have a Grade A Cabinet. He dismissed the Cabinet as “too cold”. And has, therefore, asked the him to dissolve his Cabinet snd save the strategies he has to move Nigeria forward.

Ibrahim made this appeal to the President when he appeared on Channels Television’s Politics Today.

Asked by the anchor, Seun Okinbaloye, what he thinks about the performance of the President who will be one year in office on May 29, 2024, Ibrahim pounced on the Ministers. “Dissolve your Cabinet”, he advised the President, and drop especially, those who have allegations of corruption against them so the President does not carry their burden.

Ibrahim, a Governorship Aspirant, who is in Court to  challenge the outcome of the just concluded All Progressives Congress, APC, Governorship Primary in Ondo State told the President: “You have to dissolve the Cabinet. You have to come up with knowledgeable people. The Cabinet is too cold.”

He said not only are the current crop of Ministers not good for the country, they are not knowledgeable, which is why, he explained, the economy is tottering a year after the President was sworn-in.

On the presence, in the President’s Cabinet, of some  Ministers accused, allegedly, of corruption, he said the President needs to drop them. “You need to drop them. If you fail to do that, you will be carrying their burdens and that will be terrible for our country”, he told the President.

He, however, acknowledged that President Tinubu has a “fantastic strategy” to lift the country, but said the strategy is on a faulty structure.

“The structure has arrested the strategy.  Do you think the current system can carry the strategy?”

President Tinubu was sworn into office on May 29, 2023.
