Acting President Yemi Osinbajo has sworn in two new Ministers during the Federal Executive Council meeting in Abuja.
They are Stephen Ocheni, from Kogi State and Suleiman Hassan, Gombe State.
Osinbajo urged the Ministers to pay attention to the administration’s economic plan and chart the course in their various Ministries.
“Time and time again we have continued to emphasize the need for ministers to pay particular attention to all the areas that we have highlighted in the economic plan.
“The President, Muhammadu Buhari decided to task ministers with specific functions and so we expect our new ministers to be part of this Herculean task in turning around the Nigerian economy and making life better for the citizens.
“Of course, you know that aside from the economy we have two key areas highlighted by the president during the course of the campaigns and have become center pieces of our administration Programme – security and the anti-corruption fight.
“We expect that members of the federal executive council will focus on these key areas as well. We have of course made tremendous progress in security, we have issues and challenges here and there, but they are, compared to where we are coming from, very minor indeed and we are tackling them on a day by day basis,” he said.
