Cabinet Reshuffling: Rekindling the Renewed Hope Agenda Through Aggressive Impactful Performance
Nigerians are no strangers to cabinet reshuffling in government at all levels across the country. However, in the wake of very turbulent times the country has faced due to President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda which ushered in new policies and programmes particularly the Petroleum Subsidy removal, the unprecedented taxation which Nigerians never envisaged that has resulted in very trying times , citizens are wondering what difference the cabinet reshuffling will make.
It is very pertinent to note that President Tinubu has repeatedly demonstrated sufficient mettle to drive the vision of his administration’s agenda in a bid to actualizing them albeit with little regards for its current adverse effects on the citizens, always calling on Nigerians to bear patiently the cross of pain as there’s surely going to be light at the end of the tunnel.
Remarkably, the beacons of hope under this administration should be those I consider as the field marshals or lieutenants, that is the ministers who form the cabinet. There’s no gainsaying the fact that the success or failure of a government is dependent upon the calibre of technocrats and personnel within the government and rightly so, President Tinubu’s decision to reshuffle his cabinet for reasons of underperformance and under-delivery is commendable as it is a wake up call for those coming in to up their games to achieve the set goals.
Clearly, the body language of the President is that there’s no room for slacking or complacency. You have been appointed to serve the people and you must come to the table with something meaningful to offer. From his point of view, he is clearly saying gone are the days when political appointments are for mere political patronage. It is a call for service and it must be done with due diligence. It is not surprising that the likes of Nyesom Wike, FCT Minister, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, Interior Minister, Festus Keyamo, Aviation Minister, and Dave Umahi, Works Minister, were all returned having scored high marks by the performance indicator report conducted by Hadiza Bala Usman.
This step and efforts by the President to get rid of underperforming cabinet members is clearly an indication of a government driven by goals and prepared beyond mere promises to see its manifestations. It is on this note that whoever has made it to the new cabinet, both returning and newly appointed ministers, must embrace this call to service and give of their best to save our nation from further plunging into the dungeon of endless suffering and pains.
It is the belief of the Renewed Hope Agenda- The Way Forward Group that Nigerians are just about to experience a renewed strength and passion in public service as all efforts shall be geared towards restoring confidence and the hopes of Nigerians in the Tinubu’s led administration whose primary goal is to improve the living conditions of Nigerians.
The group commends the President for the bold steps he has taken so far , while calling on Nigeria to support the Renewed Hope Agenda of Mr President.
The future starts today
