There had been rumours that President Tinubu would replace Gbajabiamila with ex-Lagos governor, Babatunde Fashola.
Johnson said he was ''shocked'' President Bola Tinubu did not dissolve his ministerial cabinet.
The analyst said:
“I think one of the biggest losers (of the speculated cabinet reshuffle) has been that man (Gbajabiamila), unfortunately.”
He added:
“He would have been the biggest loser. Why? With his kind of experience and the fact that he has been there for a while, I don’t think the president would not miss him so much.”
