EDUCATION MINISTER, NWAJIUBA DON RESIGN APRIL 28; HE DON EARN BUHARI COMMENDATION.
Di Minister of State for Education, Emeka Nwajiuba, don tender his resignation even before President Muhammadu Buhari order all cabinet members interested wey dey contest for 2023 elections to quit im government.
In fact, finding don show say Nwajiuba, wey President Muhammadu Buhari commended for taking di initiative to go resign before his executive directive to ministers and political appointees, actually he resignon April 28.
Obviously to ill avoid litigations that might negatively impact on the chances of All Progressives Congress’ APC, candidates, Buhari had directed all members of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) interested in elective offices to resign on or before Monday, May 16.
He give di directive for Wednesday’s FEC meeting, wia he con single out Nwajiuba for commendation, adding say, “I expect make oda members of dis council seek to be President to resign with immediate effect.”
Implication
Di mplication of dis presidential directive na say di ministers and political appointees, wey no resign before now, may fit no dry not be cleared by the ANt screening committee as they have failed to comply with the Article 3(L) of the party’s guidelines which directs that all political appointees with political ambition resign their offices 30 days to the party primaries and national convention.
Confirming this development Mr. Paul Odili, Special Assistant to the former Minister of Education Nwajiuba, said: “That the Honourable Minister, on accepting the nomination form on the 27th of April bought for him by his supporters led by an umbrella group, Project Nigeria;
“Wrote the President on the 28th informing him that having accepted the nomination by his supporters to contest the office of the presidency on the party’s platform, that he would like to disengage from office to enable him concentrate on his campaign and to avoid any conflict of interest.
“I can tell you Mr. President immediately accepted his letter of resignation.”
So far it appears that Mr. Nwajiuba is the only Buhari appointee to have met that requirement set by the party.
It remains to be seen how the party’s screening committee will handle the issue.
