"The Ministerial list; The President embraced some Serpents with a known history of treachery and rewarded some vultures for playing the Judas.Appeasing a snake in a palace doesn’t spare the King."
Similarly, another Twitter user with the handle @Mykoladoo said:
"Ministerial position has become a compensation slot rather than been the list of technocrats who can make difference.
"List filled with Ex gov, Senators and Reps. Nothing for those who waited to be leaders of tomorrow."
@idmann_mit said:
"Elrufai was Minister 20yrs ago, Wike was Minister 12yrs ago. In batch 2 of the #Ministerial, you'll see Kwankwaso who rejected VP lobbying for Minister.
"They didn't identity young ns who can be Ministers but them bcos it's not about service delivery but political survival."
