The cabinet arrangements of the Nigeria’s President Elect, Bola Tinubu has split the All Progressives Congress(APC) following allegation and counter allegation being attributed to choice of Chief of Staff, said to be a Muslim.
Penpushing reports that investigation showed that in the course of the countdown to Tinubu’s inauguration, several disturbing developments are already playing out, speculation has it that the President-elect has penciled down Femi Gbajabiamila, the current speaker of the House of Reps, for the position of Chief of Staff.
The findings showed that this is one out of the many controversial proposed cabinet members with argument that nothing can be more bewildering coming in the wake of the brouhaha generated by the Muslim-Muslim ticket of the incoming Tinubu presidency.
Penpushing further reports that sources said the complainant argued that if Gbajabiamila tale is true, it is that of the four topmost offices in the Presidency three had already gone to the Muslims, which include: President, Vice President, Secretary to the Government, and the Chief of Staff.
The source added that it is no more news that Tinubu, as at the time he was handed the All Progressives Congress (APC) ticket, did not have control over the faith of who became his party’s national chairman and while he might have little or no room to maneuver his way out of the arm twisting that led to picking a Muslim as running mate.
Penpushing also reports that the source declared that this one about Gbajabiamila, another Muslim, on the way to Chief of Staff seat, is too insulting, adding that it is a fact that opposition to the Tinubu – Shetima ticket erupted preponderantly among Christians of the nation who justifiably are scared of a Muslim-dominated government after Buhari.
“A Gbajabiamila as Chief of Staff will only ratify rather than allay the apprehensions of Christians. Does it mean Tinubu does not have a worthy Christian in the entire pool of his associates? Or is it hatred for Christianity as pushed in some quarters?”, the source added
Penpushing reports that the source argued that naturally, since the Secretary to the State Government should come from the Hausa/ Fulani North since the group hasn’t featured in any of the four positions and the Hausa/ Fulanis are Muslims preponderantly.
Meanwhile, the Director of the Presidential campaign council of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bayo Onanuga, as at the time of filing this report did not respond to phone calls put across, and did not reply messages sent to him for his reaction over the alleged development
