Reactions:
@GbengaIroko: Congratulations sir. Your nomination as the minister of the federal republic of Nigeria is well deserved. I have no doubt that you will be best suited to occupy the office of the minister for labour and productivity at our President’s cabinet. Best wishes sir.
@Richmondtogo: I can imagine the amount of calls and lobbying you did, how are ur kneels feeling now?
@OlasupoJakes: There’s nothing miraculous here, Keyamo. Someone like you is only relevant in a fantastically corrupt country like Nigeria. Even the man who appointed you won’t get a job as a cleaner in a sane country with his drug forfeiture indictment.
@Mgbojikwe: You are dancing cos you have seen another avenue to steal more money to afford a house in Houston. Thieves.
@Darling88663948: A well deserved nomination for a man who will always walk the talk. A great achiever in his chosen profession, ever ready to do the hard and smart job required for great success. Congrats our amiable, indefatigable SAN
