Former Vice President and chieftain of All Progressives Congress (APC) Atiku Abubakar on Monday affirmed that President Muhammadu Buhari has made the right choices with the nominees in his incoming cabinet, expressing optimism that they will be agents of change who will place the country above all parochial interests.
Alhaji Muhammadu Sugar, Chairman, Atiku Loyalists Group, speaking in Kano against the backdrop of insinuations that Atiku was not happy with the list of ministers, was emphatic that his principal was happy with the list.
Sugar pointed out that the calibre of persons who were on the list made him hopeful that the country is on the right path.
Refuting media speculations that Atiku was among the big losers on the ministerial list, for not having a candidate, Alhaji Sugar stressed that in the first place, Atiku never sought for any of his supporters to be on the list.
According to him, the minister-nominee from his Adamawa home town, Musa Muhammad, is just like a son to Atiku.
He added emphatically that presently, the country needs the joint contributions of the teeming masses of the country, if the real change Nigerians were yearning for would be possible.
According to him, the populace must be ready to rally round President Buhari to effect the change.
