Japheth Omojuwa, a Nigerian blogger and social media activist has revealed that President Muhammadu Buhari was expected to appoint Oby Ezekwesili as a member of his cabinet after the 2015 election.
The social media influencer made this known via a letter dated Wednesday, April 14, which was written by his lawyer, Boonyameen Lawal of Babalakin & Co Legal Practitioners in response to a lawsuit filed against him by the former minister of education.

Omojuwa who shared a copy of the letter on his official Twitter account said Ezekwesili played some role during the 2015 poll because of the expectation that she would be made a minister.
However, when the Nigerian leader assumed office he did not appoint the co-convener of the BringBackOurGirls movement as a member of his cabinet.
The blogger who said he has a 10-year relationship with the former minister beginning from 2012 described Ezekwesili as a benefactor
Omojuwa went on to note that his relationship with the BBOG co-convener has, however, deteriorated because he is no longer the “impressionable boy” who can be controlled to fight social media wars by proxy.
This development is coming after Ezekwesili threatened to sue Omojuwa for claiming she is a director of his company, Alpha Reach.
The former education minister had expressed shock saying she wasn't a director and demanded Omojuwa must produce a public apology.
Meanwhile, a presidential media aide, Bashir Ahmad, reacted to the development saying their client clearly wanted to be appointed as a cabinet member of President Buhari’s administration.

With thunder and lightening, fowl nyash don open. Something you should observe: Omojuwa said Madam Oby used him to fight proxy wars and perceived enemies. What does this tell you.
Prior to 2015, Omojuwa was used by her and Mallam to bring up lies against GEJ. Now he is a MAN!!!!

2. She and El'rufai were made directors of his company but removed in 2015 when she expected to be named a minister in PMB's cabinet.

We've always said it. That baldo, wanted desperately to be in Buhari's Gov't and inner circle. But alas, baba's jazz man saw through her facade. The pain she feels for being passed over is making her go medddd.
Earlier, Legit.ng reported that a policy advocacy group, Society for Watchdog on Non-Governmental Organization and Good Governance (SWOGG) has called on the police to launch an immediate investigation into an ongoing cyber offence and personality forgery.
According to the group, the allegation indicted a company linked to Omojuwa.
