I Will Sack Non-Performing Ministers — President Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu has vowed to relieve any non-performing cabinet member from his or her ministerial responsibilities.

The President, who did not specify when to wield the big stick, declared that he would continue to do his best for Nigeria.

“I thank the cabinet members for their efforts, but I will relieve any of them of their duties anytime I feel that they are failing Nigerians,” he said.

He also appealed to state governments to prioritize the needs of local communities by ensuring accountability and effectiveness in the administration of local government areas.

“I will appeal to you to summon the governors. I am doing my very best to enhance the country’s revenue base. They must equally be sympathetic and urgently consider the needs of the local people.

“People reside in the local communities. That is where they work, farm, and live. If the local governments are not effective in delivering services; as leaders, we must not hang on to the numbers.

“Maybe we should look at recalibrating. What was good four years ago may not be good today. When we want the votes, we go to the locals; when we get the votes, we move to and focus on Abuja,” he said.
