Keyamo Makes Tinubu’s Revised Ministerial Nomination List; Femi Fani-Kayode Left Out

In a surprising development, Festus Keyamo, a prominent lawyer and former Minister of State for Labour and Employment, has secured a spot in President Bola Tinubu’s revised ministerial nomination list.

The inclusion came to light during the Senate plenary session when Senate President Godswill Akpabio read out a letter from President Tinubu. Notably, Keyamo was not among the initial nominees, but his efforts on social media and unwavering support for President Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC) seem to have played a pivotal role in earning him the nomination.

Keyamo’s active advocacy on social media platforms, particularly Twitter, where he has staunchly defended President Tinubu and the APC, appears to have caught the attention of the administration. His presence on the revised list garnered significant attention, leaving many political observers surprised and intrigued by the impact of digital advocacy in the nomination process.

Taking to Twitter to express his gratitude, Keyamo posted, “He’s a miracle-working God🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻. He’s a miracle-working God🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻 He’s the Alpha and Omega, 🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻🕺🏻He’s a miracle-working God!”

On the other hand, Femi Fani-Kayode, a notable figure and staunch supporter of President Tinubu, did not secure a place in the revised ministerial nomination list. Fani-Kayode, known for his vocal and unwavering loyalty to President Tinubu and the APC, was conspicuously left out, leaving room for speculation among political observers.

His absence from the list has sparked discussions about the decision-making process behind the nominations and the President’s criteria for selection. Fani-Kayode had previously expressed his support for President Tinubu’s political aspirations and publicly congratulated those who made it to the first list.

As the nomination process unfolds, the spotlight remains on the dynamics at play in finalizing the ministerial appointments. Nigerians are eagerly awaiting further updates and revisions to the list, as the Senate conducts the screening and confirmation process for the nominees.

The composition of the cabinet holds significant implications for the nation’s governance and policies in the coming years. The final lineup of ministers will undoubtedly shape the political landscape and the administration’s ability to address critical issues facing the country.

As the political scene continues to evolve, the public’s attention remains focused on the unfolding developments in the ministerial nomination process, with expectations running high for a government that represents the diverse interests of Nigerians. Keyamo’s inclusion and Fani-Kayode’s exclusion have added a layer of complexity to the selection process, and the choices made will undoubtedly have far-reaching consequences for the nation’s future.
