Already, four major candidates have emerged for the only ministerial slot allegedly alloted to Ekiti State, New Telegraph reported today.
According to the report, two former governors of the state – Segun Oni and Kayode Fayemi – are contending with a human rights activist, Mr. Femi Falana (SAN) and former Lagos State Commissioner, Mr. Dele Alake, for the slot.
Oni is the Deputy National Chairman (South) of the APC while Fayemi was the Director, Policy Directorate of the APC Presidential Campaign Council.
The renown Human Roghts activist, Chief Femi Falana is being tipped as the Attorney General of Federation and Minister of Justice.
In Lagos, the choice of the ministerial nominee is between Mr. Yemi Cardoso and Wale Edun. Both served as commissioners under the Bola Tinubu administration in Lagos State.
A source said Buhari might defer to Tinubu on who gets the Lagos ministerial slot. But the presidency has allayed fear of marginalsiation of party chiefs, as it said there was nothing to fear..
