Nigerians are eager to see who the new president, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, will appoint to his cabinet to help him run the affairs of the country for the next four years.

So far, President Tinubu has named some of his cabinet members, which include Femi Gbagabiamila as Chief oStaffff and George Akume as Secretary to the Government of the Federation.

President Tinubu is expected to announce the rest of the members of his cabinet within 60 days after he assumes office.

The cabinet members will work with the president to guide the affairs of the country for the next four years.

The president’s camp had promised that he would make his full appointments within 60 days after his inauguration, The Guardian reported.

This aligns with a bill assented to by the former president, Muhammad Buhari, which mandated the president and governors to submit the names of persons nominated as ministers or commissioners within 60 days of taking the oath of office for confirmation by the Senate or State House of Assembly, as reported by Daily Trust.

Although the confirmation of some of Tinubu’s appointments will be subject to the confirmation of the National Assembly, some do not need this approval.

Some of them are highlighted below;

1. National Security Adviser

The Office of the National Security Adviser (NSA) pulls together and encompasses different major professional capabilities, including those of the military, law enforcement, intelligence services, international relations, and financial controls, in addition to bilateral and multilateral engagements.

2. Special adviser on media and publicity to the president

A special adviser to the president is a supporting role in the executive arm of the government of Nigeria, whose duty is to assist the president of Nigeria in the performance of his functions.

The role is the official spokesperson of the president.

The last person to occupy that position was Femi Adesina.

3. Senior special assistant on media and publicity.

Anyone that occupies this role will play a strong role in promoting information sharing.

Garba Shehu, a former president of the Nigerian Guild of Editors (NGE), last held that post for eight years.

According to information, the newly inaugurated president appointed Ambassador Kunle Adeleke as the State Chief of Protocol (SCOP).
