President Muhammadu Buhari on
Friday approved the constitution of the governing boards of agencies and
parastatals.
He has also appointed 209
chairmen and 1258 members to fill the board positions.
The development was communicated
in a statement released by Boss Mustapha, secretary to the government of the
federation.
However, it has been discovered
that three of the men on the list have since passed away.
Buhari appointed Rev. Christopher
Utov as a Member of Nigerian Institute of Social and Economic Research.
Rev Utov, the proprietor of Fidei
Polytechnic, Gboko passed away on March 17, 2017.
The president also appointed
Chief Donald Ugbaja as a Member of the Consumer Protection Council (CPC).
Chief Ugbaja, a former DIG of the
Nigerian Police, died on November 29, 2017.
The third man Senator Francis
Okpozo, was appointed as Chairman of the Nigerian Press Council.
But Okpozo, a Senator in the
Second Republic, died on December 16, 2016.
President Buhari issued a
statement mourning his death.
That shows that the list of the POLITICAL appointment was prepared long time ago but he (PMB) needed it not. So he waited for election time to implement the list.This is therefore an ELECTION appointment NOT a POLITICAL appointment. What he has simply done is an expansion of his foot soldiers towards rigging election for himself and his party
