According to multiple reports, President Buhari is considering naming former Lagos Governor, Babatunde Fashola or former Ekiti state governor Kayode Fayemi as his Chief of Staff. Abubakar Mamu is also being considered for the position. There are indications that President Buhari might today reveal who the Secretary to the Government of the Federation will be as well as other aides.

Fashola should be Minister of Power!
If he is Minister of Power for sure we would have change there. Its a waste of resources and talent to have someone like Fashola at this critical point in Nigeria to be organizing people!
Fashola should be rotated around Government within a period of time of about 18 months.

chief of staff to the president...hmmmmm,thought it is an important position,it is below the class of fashola or fayemi,the job description is just like a principal secretary to the president,the position of SGF would be a perfect fit for them instead,these guys are former governors,surely they won't stoop low to accept such position of chief of staff.

Fashion will be next presidential candidate after Buhari. But first pls make him a minister NOT Fct, we want to feel his impact across the nation. Fct is way too little for Fash.

Please Buhari make Fashola Minister of Power oooo. Not chief of staff.

Fashola should be made a minister. Even fayemi. Give others chief of staff or you re going to fail.

Abeg I don't support Fashola as anything jor, please he is just a pretender. He surrounded himself with silly females that he was dating, giving them appointments so that he can spend a lot of time with them without people suspecting.
But its no secret within Lagos State Government Circle jare. He is as dirty as they come just wrapped nicely with a big bow on top. Abeg who are you fooling Babatunde Fashola?
I don't trust you and I believe you are a hypocrite, you and your wife sat on all the contracts left and right using your fronts to get all the jobs in the State.

In american politics, d chief of staff is more important dn any minister (secretary - is d US term) on d cabinet bcos he controls d cabinet (ministers report to him) and is d one dt sells and controls d presidents agenda on capitol hill (senators & reps), making sure votes are gotten 4 bills d administration wants. He basically runs d govt for the president. Dts why they give d position to their closest or a trusted advisor who is usually a no-nonsense person.

The VP is usually a figure head who's hardly in d white house, save for very important stuff (or d president just decides to put him in charge of sthn), he does ceremonies & campaign stuff on behalf of d president & obviously, a spare in case of d presidents death. Cheney was an exception.You should watch "The west wing".

I dont think fashola is confrontational or ruthless enough for those thugs (dogs dt jump fences, take bribes from d oil industry & share bags at d end of sessions) in our parliament. Except maybe they do what he says out of respect. But those guys are not honourable. Its best they make him minister of power or works. At least he can control subordinates.

I strongly believe fayemi has the personality to make a good chief of staff. Fashola should be made a minister in one of the core sectors of the economy.
