Congratulations to all our newly sworn in ministers. And I also congratulate our able president for selecting these great Nigerians at this critical moment in our nation history. For a president who inherited the worse economy conditions, worse national security and the most terrible oil revenue because of continuous drop in the oil prices, getting it right is very crucial. It is my hope that these wonderful ministers will do whatever it takes to revive dying Nigeria from many years of stagnant, unproductive , mismanagement, setbacks, debt accumulation and corruption.
