Sack More Ministers, Ndume Tells Tinubu
Senator Ali Ndume, the lawmaker representing Borno South senatorial district, has urged President Bola Tinubu to sack more slacking ministers from his cabinet.
In a statement on Saturday in Abuja, Ndume said some other ministers who were not performing should be sacked.
The lawmaker applauded Tinubu’s recent cabinet restructuring, particularly the creation of the Ministry of Regional Development to oversee all regional commissions.
He said, “We saw President Tinubu’s cabinet reshuffle last week, which was a masterstroke.
“More needs to be done as some ministers are still ‘missing in action.
“I’m particularly pleased about establishing the Ministry of Regional Development to oversee regional commissions. The President’s decision to streamline ministries also exemplifies his commitment to reducing the cost of governance.”

He encouraged Tinubu to pursue his de-dollarisation policy further by positioning Nigeria to join BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa).
Ndume noted that the move would benefit Nigerian businesses, especially those importing from China, by reducing reliance on the dollar and easing pressure on the naira.
The senator also urged Tinubu to convene a national economic conference led by the Ministry of Budget and Economic Planning, the National Economic Adviser, and notable Nigerian economists to devise local solutions for the Federal Government.
