We need a vibrant Minister – Benue elites beg Buhari

As politicking and lobbying for appointments continue to gather momentum around the Presidency, a group of Benue elites have advised President Muhammadu Buhari to appoint only vibrant and dynamic people in his cabinet.

The group, under the aegis of Benue Elites Development Network, said the idea of recycling old hands who have little or nothing to contribute to the socio-economic development of the society should be discouraged.

Comprising of lawyers, medical and media practitioners, engineers and successful business moguls, the group told newsmen in Abuja on Tuesday that Benue could no longer afford to bench her first eleven, while some old hands were being recycled.

Engr. Onoja Sunday Ugwu, who spoke on behalf of the forum, said arrangements were underway to lead a delegation to President Buhari, to register the decision of Benue people.
