From all indications it seems the president may have stepped on toes
On Thursday, August 27, across the country when the list of his latest appointment was released. The list which contained six new key appointees was criticized as being onesided. Responding to the widespread
outrage and criticisms over the appointment, APC national
chairman Chief John Oyegun in an interview with Thisday on
Saturday in Abuja said,
"It is too early and superficial to say the appointments
were lopsided; it is too early. We are just a little over two
months into the government. The appointments made so
far are personal staff members of the president. And it is
his prerogative to make the appointments."
The chairman added, "Even though we were marginally involved in
those appointments,the party will henceforth be fully involved in
the subsequent appointments; that is where the supremacy of the
party will come to bear. Nigerians should exercise a little
patience. There will be board appointments,ministerial positions
and a lot of other positions"
