In a surprising move today, President Tinubu announced the immediate dismissal of the Education and Women Affairs Ministers, along with three other high-ranking officials in his administration.
The decision to sack these key members of the President's cabinet comes after weeks of speculation and rumors about their performance and effectiveness in their respective roles. President Tinubu stated that he was no longer satisfied with the progress being made in the education and women affairs sectors and felt that new leadership was needed to drive meaningful change.
"We cannot afford to wait any longer for results in these critical areas," President Tinubu said in a statement. "It is time for fresh perspectives and new ideas to move our country forward."
The President has not yet announced replacements for the vacant positions but has assured the public that the search for qualified candidates is already underway. In the meantime, interim leaders will be appointed to ensure that important government functions are not disrupted.
The news of the dismissals has sparked a mix of reactions from the public, with some praising President Tinubu for taking bold action to address issues in the education and women affairs ministries, while others express concern about the sudden shakeup in the government.
