‘Buhari Does Not Ask After His Ministers Unlike Tinubu’ – Former Minister

A former Minister of Communications, Adebayo Shittu has revealed the difference between the leadership style of ex-president, Muhammadu Buhari and President Bola Tinubu.

According to Shittu, Buhari does not ask his ministers to explain how they run their ministeries, unlike Tinubu does.

Shittu stated this during an interview on Channels TV, while reacting to the current retreat Tinubu’s ministers are attending.

He said, “Buhari did not give anybody any threat. As I said, Buhari is not Tinubu and Tinubu is not Buhari. What I know of Buhari with all due respect to him, he is a more reserved person. When he gives a job to somebody, he will never ask how they go about it.

“I have to say this for national interest so that the government who comes after him should do something about it. In the Buhari government, if you don’t go and meet him, probably in the next four years, he will not ask about you.

“People bring their memos, but in terms of supervision we really did have such things. Tnubu is trying to do things differently.

“In his statement today, Tinubu shows commitment that he is trying to do things differently. What I think he needs to add to it is to lead a transparent and quantifiable supervision of each ministry.”
