The Imminent Tinubu’s Cabinet Shake-up

Tinubu’s Cabinet Shake-up
Share on WhatsAppShare on FacebookShare on XTelegram

Buckle up, Nigeria. The wind of change is blowing through the corridors of power in Abuja, and it is carrying whispers of an imminent cabinet reshuffle.

President Bola Tinubu, 15 months into his tenure, is reportedly ready to play musical chairs with his ministers. The confirmation came straight from the horse’s mouth – or at least, from the mouth of Bayo Onanuga, the president’s special adviser on information and strategy.

Onanuga, in true Nigerian political fashion, left us with more questions than answers. Will it happen before October 1? Your guess is as good as mine, folks.

President Tinubu’s 48-minister cabinet is the highest we have had since 1999. Yet the ones that are working and visible are less than 10.

‘Expect Tinubu’s Cabinet Reshuffle Soon’

But here’s the million-naira question: Will this reshuffle actually change anything? Or is it just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic of Nigerian governance?

Let’s face it, we’ve seen this movie before. A new administration comes in, full of promises and bravado. A few months down the line, when the honeymoon phase wears off and the harsh realities of governing Nigeria set in, we get a cabinet reshuffle. It’s like changing the players mid-game and expecting a different score.

Tinubu’s senior special assistant on digital and new media, O’tega Ogra, claims the decision is based on “empirical evidence.”

But wait, there’s more! Apparently, Tinubu isn’t just reshuffling his cabinet; he’s also giving them a crash course in PR 101. The president has instructed his ministers to “go out there and publicise the administration’s successes.” Because nothing says “good governance” like ministers moonlighting as their own hype men, right?

Onanuga tells us that “many Nigerians believe the president isn’t doing much.”

But fear not, dear citizens! Our ministers are about to transform into walking, talking billboards for Tinubu’s achievements. Forget about actually solving problems – the real issue, apparently, is that they haven’t been bragging enough about their successes

The irony is palpable. We have ministers who are “hesitant to speak publicly” about their achievements, yet they’re being pushed to become cheerleaders for the administration. It’s like asking a mute person to sing karaoke – entertaining, perhaps, but ultimately futile.

So, what can we expect from this impending reshuffle? Will we see fresh faces with innovative ideas, ready to tackle Nigeria’s myriad of challenges? Or will it be the same old recycled politicians, playing musical chairs while the country watches in bemused frustration?

My prediction? We’ll see a mix of both. A few sacrificial lambs will be led to the slaughter, their political careers offered up on the altar of “change.” A handful of new faces will be brought in, their appointments heralded as the dawn of a new era. And the political merry-go-round will continue to spin.

Reshuffling the cabinet without addressing the fundamental issues plaguing our country is like changing your outfit to cure a fever. It might make you look different, but you’re still sick.

What Nigeria needs isn’t just new faces in old positions. We need a complete overhaul of our governance structure. We need leaders at all levels who understand that their job isn’t to accumulate wealth or power, but to serve the people. We need ministers who don’t need to be told to publicise their achievements because their work speaks for itself.

Needless to say, Nigerians want real change, tangible progress and leaders at all levels who put the nation’s interests above their own.

As for the rest of us, let’s not hold our breath waiting for this reshuffle to miraculously solve all our problems. Instead, let’s continue to hold our leaders accountable, demand transparency, and work towards building the Nigeria we deserve.

In the grand scheme of things, this cabinet reshuffle might just be another act in the long-running tragicomedy of Nigerian politics. But who knows? Maybe, just maybe, it’ll be the plot twist we’ve been waiting for. Either way, pass the popcorn. This show is far from over.
