President Buhari May Swear In Ministers Wednesday

President Muhammadu Buhari is to assign portfolio and
administer the oath of office on his ministers “most likely on
Wednesday”, Daily Trust has learnt.
A source at the Presidency, who craved anonymity because he
was not authorized to speak on the issue, disclosed this to our
correspondent yesterday.

“The first major official assignment before Mr President in
November is the inauguration of his cabinet. Arrangements
have already been made for this and this [will] most likely
happen on Wednesday”, the source said.
In the same vein, an aide to one of the ministers-designate
also told our correspondent last night that his principal had
received a message from the Presidency that the inauguration
would take place on Wednesday.
“The inauguration is taking place Wednesday next week,
according to what I heard my boss saying this (yesterday)
afternoon,” the aide said.
But the Special Adviser to the President on Media and
Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina, said only the president would
communicate when he would inaugurate his cabinet.
Adesina, who said he could not confirm exactly when the
ministers-designate would be sworn in, added they would have
to notify their family members.
