My nomination came as a surprise – Fayemi



A former governor of Ekiti State, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, said on Tuesday that his nomination as a minister by President Muhammadu Buhari came as a surprise.

The ex-governor said he didn’t anticipate his inclusion in the President’s ministerial list.



He told journalists at the All Progress Congress (APC) National Secretariat that although he was with President Buhari till about 4:00pm on the day the list was submitted to the Senate President, the President never mentioned it to him that he was being considered for appointment.

Fayemi, who was the Director of Research and Strategy of the APC Presidential Campaign Council, is one of the 21 ministerial nominees submitted to the Senate by President Buhari.

He said, “Well, to the extent that I was not told by the President that I was going to be on his list, yes, it came as a surprise. The President is a surprise master, let me put it that way.

  3. It should come as a surprise to Fayemi after making mockery of intelligence with 4 years of doing nothing in Ekiti state and making mockery of education by loosing in one of the most educated state in Nigeria to a school drop out. He should not be a part of the CHANGE we are talking about. I am more surprised than him.
