In a dramatic power move, President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday sacked five ministers in a major cabinet reshuffle that has sent shockwaves through the nation’s political corridors.
The decision, sealed at a crucial Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting in Abuja, underscores Tinubu’s resolve to shake up his administration and refocus his government’s agenda.
Those shown the door include Barr. Uju-Ken Ohanenye, Minister of Women Affairs; Lola Ade-John, Minister of Tourism; Prof. Tahir Mamman, Minister of Education; Abdullahi Muhammad Gwarzo, Minister of State for Housing and Urban Development; and Dr. Jamila Bio Ibrahim, Minister of Youth Development. Their sudden exits mark a pivotal moment as Tinubu tightens his grip on governance.
In a parting message, Tinubu expressed gratitude to the ousted ministers for their service, offering his best wishes for their future endeavors.
