REVEALED! Why I Put 3 Ministries Under Fashola – Buhari

 President Muhammadu Buhari, has justified his allocation of three key ministries- Power, Works and Housing, to Mr. Babatunde Fashola (SAN).

Buhari said Fashola did well as Lagos State governor and that he was capable of delivering.

“The economic realities demanded that we merge ministries and we did,” Buhari told The Interview.

“Putting three critical ministries under one man was determined by the ability to perform.

“This is a man who had ruled a state excellently for eight years and as they say, the reward for hard work is more work,” Buhari stated.

The minister, who spoke at the inaugural ‘Buharimeter Town Hall Meeting’, pointed out that the ministries were not bigger than Lagos State which he successfully governed for eight years.

He said “what is different is that I am working with a team I have not worked with before but I had to use a reasonable period of time to study the terrain”.

Fashola assured Nigerians that he was performing and the he has a capable hand as minister of state in the ministry, an experienced permanent secretary and reliable members of staff.
