One of the presidential spokespersons to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, Daniel Bwala, has said the new cabinet of President Bola Tinubu would not perform up to 15 percent.
He said most of the new ministers had no records of performance, as Tinubu chose them merely because of politics rather than governance.
Speaking on a television programme monitored in Abuja, Bwala stated that he didn’t expect much based on the people the president has appointed.
According to him, “I feel that when it comes to the number of ministers, he (Tinubu) was more particular about politics than governance. The number of governors in the cabinet and the portfolios assigned to some individuals were purely political.
“I don’t have an expectation of a performance that is going to be beyond 15 percent, looking at the cabinet members. This is because you have a cabinet that is full of people, whose track record betrays what we are expecting of them. A governor, who did not do much in a state where he had the resources and made executive decisions and nobody questioned him yet couldn’t do anything.

“There are others, maybe they have an idea, we don’t know, but their first speech with the Nigerian people is threatening fire and brimstone. To us, we felt that somebody who does that probably does not have a firm grasp of the role he is going to play or an idea of where he is going.
“Sometimes, even if you do, priority also matters. If you have too many issues, you know which one comes first, which one comes second.”
