THE Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, today, shrugged off complaints that some of the newly sworn-in ministers are mismatched with their assigned portfolios, describing such criticisms as overblown.
“The notion that there has not been some sort of a link between some of the nominees and the various sectors they will now be overseeing, I think is a bit overblown,” Ngelale said.
“I think sometimes there is a tendency on the part of some public analysts to oversimplify the general backgrounds of some certain nominees.”
The comments come barely 24 hours after President Bola Tinubu inaugurated the 45 new ministers in a much-anticipated ceremony held at the State House.
