Former Ekiti State Governor Kayode Fayemi has expressed shock at making the ministerial list
He spoke to the newsmen in Abuja on Tuesday
evening, Fayemi said:
"Well, to the extent that I was not told by the
President that I was going to be on his list, yes, it
came as a surprise. The President is a surprise
master, let me put it that way.
He did not tell anyone to the best of my knowledge
and I would have thought that I was in vantage
position to know more than others.
I was with him for five days before then, I was
with him in New York at the United Nation General
Assembly » and he never said a word about his
list to me nor to anyone else.
We came back to Nigeria together, I was with him
till 4:00pm on the evening he submitted the list to
the President of the Senate and I didn’t have any
clue of what is going to happen. So, to that extent I
was pleasantly surprised.”
The Senate has said screening of the ministerial
nominees will begin October 13
