Protest: Former SGF tells Tinubu to reshuffle cabinet


Babachir Lawal,  a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation has advised President Bola Tinubu to reshuffle his cabinet to include “a mix of technocrats and politicians”.

He gave this advice in a statement on Tuesday as youths prepare for nationwide protests against bad governance, hunger, and hardship.

The former SGF said politicians are more adept at communicating with the people and have more stake in the successes or failures of a government, Vanguard reports.

“These Lagos technocrats who now fill the MDAs lack knowledge of the workings of Nigeria. Majority of them are rude, inaccessible, clannish”, he said.

Lawal also asked Tinubu to immediately address the nation, outlining immediate and long-term measures out of the current economic quagmire, if indeed he is desirous of staving off the planned nationwide protests against his administration.

Lawal said Tinubu should in his address come up with persuasive arguments intended to placate the angry and hungry citizens.

“Under the current climate, Nigerians cannot be intimidated by this government nor do they respect it. So avoid the macho tough talk. In the proposed address to the nation, enumerate concrete and believable policies of government intended to address current challenges on an immediate, medium and long term basis”, he stated.
