Ajuri Ngelale, the Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Media and Publicity, emphasized Tinubu’s commitment to ministerial success. Ngelale stated that Tinubu is willing to remove ineffective ministers to ensure his administration’s achievements. Since becoming President in February 2023, Tinubu has set performance benchmarks for various sectors, reflecting his proactive approach.
Ngelale highlighted Tinubu’s establishment of reform committees during the interim period before his May 29 inauguration. These committees aim to build upon the accomplishments of former President Muhammadu Buhari. The uniqueness of this approach lies in its time-based benchmarks, where each incoming minister understands their goals and performance expectations within specific timeframes.
Ngelale expressed that Tinubu’s willingness to take quick actions and enforce accountability sets a new precedent in Nigerian governance. The President’s determination to avoid failure reflects his resolve to be attributed only to successful governance rather than any ministerial shortcomings.
