President Bola Tinubu has been encouraged to nominate Chief Femi Fani-Kayode as a minister by Daniel Bwala, an adviser to Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate Alhaji Atiku Abubakar in the 2023 general election.
Bwala urged the president to nominate FFK in a post on X on Monday, saying that his background as a former minister will benefit his administration.
“I call on President Tinubu to take Femi Fani Kayode’s appointment as a minister of the republic into consideration,” he stated.
“Femi has put in adequate effort, just like every other appointee, but aside from that, he will have an influence on PBAT’s administration since he is a realistic individual with prior experience.
Fani-Kayode would ‘work far better’ than certain ministers, according to Bwala, who also expressed his confidence in him.
“I have never discussed this with FFK; in fact, we have only ever met twice in this life, once before he joined the APC and once at the SSS HQRs, where he was attending a fellowship. However, I am confident that FEMI will do far better than some current employees.
Fani-Kayode served as the Tinubu/Shettima Presidency Campaign Council’s Director of Special Media Projects, Operations, and New Media.
Remember that on August 21, President Tinubu swore in 45 ministers who had been approved by the Senate, surprising Nigerians who expected to see major names like Fani-Kayode, Faleke, Onanuga, and many others who were well-known for their significant contributions during the election campaign, absent from the list.
