Honourable
Mohammed Kurfi Danlami, has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to reshuffle his
cabinet as it had become obvious that his ministers were disloyal.
The APC
lawmaker representing Dutsin-ma/Kurfi Federal Constituency of Katsina State
stated this in reaction to the statements credited to Aisha Al-Hassan, the
minister of women affairs, where she pledged her support former vice president,
Atiku Abubakar, in 2019.
.
”With due
respect, I expect President Buhari to embark on urgent cabinet reshuffle, this
is necessary as it has become obvious that 80 percent of the serving ministers
are treacherous, disloyal to the president and also capable of becoming clogs
in the wheel of progress of this administration. In my own view Hajia Aishat
Alhassan should top the list of those that should be sacked by Mr president.
”Initially
we thought her statement was one of such fake news, but shockingly and without
remorse she came out in defense of her statement. Since her loyalty is for
Atiku, I don’t see any reason she should still remain in Buhari’s cabinet. I
think she should just pitch her tent with Atiku’s presidential bid. What amazed
me most is that the former VP has not declared yet, neither has the incumbent
President.”
“This means
even if Atiku dumps APC, she will as well follow him. I thought her BBC
interview should have been about the progress she recorded in her ministry or
innovation she has introduced thus far, but what she could only do was to
create unnecessary distraction and embarrass the government. This is ridiculous
and most unfortunate.”

Alhassan,
who lost the Taraba state governorship race to Darius Ishaku in 2015, was
appointed to President Buhari's cabinet in the same year..

According to
reports, Alhassan stated that even if President Buhari decides to re-contest in
2019, she would still support Atiku.
