President Buhari to become Minister of Petroleum


President Buhari has confirmed that he will be personally manning the petroleum ministry. His spokesman Femi Adesina confirmed this yesterday saying Buhari will be the minister of petroleum while a junior minister will take charge of the day to day affairs.

The former military ruler has vowed that corruption and the corrupt will have no place in his government and vetting of potential candidates has been seen as delaying his appointment of a senior ministerial team.
Buhari has made tackling the rot in the oil sector a priority, as he seeks to cut endemic graft and put the country's crippled, crude-dependent finances on a firmer footing. he is expected to release his ministerial list today.
