President Tinubu urged the ministers to place the well-being and interests of the entire nation as their top priority, urging them to transcend regional or state-based considerations. He also reminded the new ministers that the citizens of Nigeria expect nothing less than exemplary performance, asserting that any excuses for failure will not be tolerated.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is taking proactive steps to invigorate his administration, which has been in place for three months. During the inauguration ceremony of the ministers-designate in Abuja on Monday, August 21, he provided clear guidance.
He stressed the significance of focusing on national interests and cautioned against allowing regional or state-specific factors to influence their decisions.
According to The Guardian's report, President Tinubu directed the 45 newly sworn-in ministers to channel their efforts towards achieving the goals that underpin the renewed hope agenda of his administration.
At the State House Conference Centre in Abuja, where the new members of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) were sworn in, President Tinubu shared his perspective.
Addressing the ministers directly, he stated, "You are not a minister of a particular state, colony, region, or ethnic nationality; you are a minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria."
Furthermore, President Tinubu acknowledged that the selection of these ministers was a meticulous process, with their track record of excellence and accomplishments in both the public and private sectors serving as a basis for their appointments, as reported by Daily Trust.
