President Muhammadu Buhari is set to head
the Ministry of Petroleum for 18 months before appointing a substantive
minister for the ministry.
The President said this while meeting
with some members of his political party, the All Progressives Congress,
in Abuja recently.
One of those at the meeting, who spoke on
condition of anonymity, told our correspondent in Abuja on Sunday, that
the President said he would use the one and a half years of heading the
sensitive ministry to reposition it.
According
to him, “At the meeting we had recently, we discussed the issues of
portfolios and other matters,” the President said he was going to handle
the Ministry of Petroleum himself for about 18 months.
“He said it was after this that he would
appoint a substantive minister for the ministry. He said he would only
personally handle the reorganisation of the much-important ministry.
