As the All Progressive Congress (APC) primaries gets closer, the President Muhammadu Buhari has asked all members of his cabinet seeking elective office to resign on or before May 16.
The president’s order was made public by Tolu Ogunlesi, an aide to the president, in a tweet on Wednesday.
“Just in: All members of President Buhari’s cabinet vying for public office will have to resign on or before May 16, 2022,” he tweeted.
There have been public outcry over ministers who have declared their intention to run for public offices and have stayed put in their positions.
