The President Bola Ahmed Tinubu had listed Former governor of Kano state, Abdullahi Ganduje as one of the nominees for ministerial appointment but seems to have changed the assignment of the former governor.

VerseNews Nigeria gathered that because of Tnubu’s trust and confidence in the Ganduje, he has to change his mind and asked two governors (Governor Hope Uzodimma and the Kwara state governor) to persuade Ganduje into another assignment.

“The president also asked him (Ganduje) to nominate another person from Kano for the ministerial job. I can confirm to you that four serving governors of APC, including Imo and Kwara governors led the former governor Ganduje to a meeting with the President on Wednesday afternoon. The purpose of that meeting was for President Tinubu to brief Ganduje directly about the new assignment,” a source told our reporters.
