Presidential spokesman Shehu Garba
has hinted that President Muhammadu Buhari might slash the number of ministries
in the country from 49 to 19.
The reduction of federal
ministries was part of the recommendation of the Alhaji Ahmed Joda transition
committee- Daily Trust.
Shehu stated that the President
believes the reduction would save cost of governance and ensure proper
coordination of duties and better service delivery.
He however assured that there would
be no job losses in the process of pruning the ministries, departments and
parastatals, explaining that the process would be a very “painstaking thing”
that would be done very carefully.
