Former
Minister of Communications, Adebayo Shittu from Oyo State says he was shocked
when his name was not included in President Muhammadu Buhari’s ministerial list,
which was sent to the National Assembly and was later approved, sworn in.
He disclosed this
in an exclusive interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja, where
he said that although he did not expect that he would not be reappointed, as a
Muslim, he took it as his fate and has taken it the way it came.
The list of
Ministers had 14 former ministers, 29 new names and seven females, 18
ex-ministers did not make the list, which included Adebayo Shittu who says that
“Of
course, I expected that I will be reappointed (as a minister) but when it
didn’t happen, as a Muslim, it didn’t take me five minutes before I accepted
that what has come, it’s the will of God.
“And I have also
found comfort in a Quranic verse when God promised that what is to come later
is better than what is with you now and so for me, it says we must accept that
there is always something better with God which he gives to his beloved, he
concluded.
