The Voice of Northern Youths Patriots (VNYP) has advised
President Bola Tinubu not to appoint three former governors from the north-west
to his cabinet.
The Kano state branch of the group gave the advice on Monday
during a press conference.
Mustapha Mai-Royal, leader of the group, listed the former
governors as Abdullahi Ganduje (Kano), Bello Matawalle (Zamfara), and Atiku
Bagudu (Kebbi).
Mai-Royal said the trio is under investigation for alleged
corruption cases.
He said appointing them as ministers would make the
president renege on his promise to give Nigeria the best leadership it needs.
“We are hereby calling on His Excellency, President Bola
Ahmad Tinubu not to appoint some three former governors from the north-west
region as ministers because of various cases of (alleged) corruption against
them,” he said.
“Mr President, you have stated that you would run an
all-inclusive government for the unification and betterment of the country, we
want to see that from the people you are going to appoint from our region.
“These former
governors from the north-west have not displayed such qualities as to deserve
being appointed in your government.
“We have seen the poor performance of some of these
governors in the fight against insecurity in their states and the roles they
have played.
“These weaknesses are enough for Mr President to consider
and not appoint them into his cabinet.”
