President Bola Tinubu

The 48 ministers appointed by President Bola Tinubu faces the threat of dismissal if they fail to meet their assigned responsibilities and goals.

The president made this statement on Wednesday, November 1, at the opening of a three-day Cabinet Retreat at the State House Conference Center in Abuja.

"At the end of this retreat, you will sign a performance bond with me... I stand before you and I have claimed on several occasions and I am saying today again, as the president I can make a mistake, point it to me, I would resolve that conflict, that error. Perfection is of God almighty.

"But you are there to help me succeed and success I must achieve by all means necessary.

"If you are performing, nothing to fear, if you miss the objective we review, if you don't perform, you leave us... Don't be a clog in the wheel of Nigeria's progress.

"We can't complain and give excuses. It is our country. We have to give hope to the near hopeless, to the Nigerians in doubt whether our economic policies are the right way to success, he said.
