According to him, Tinubu had just begun "and he is doing his extensive consultation before coming up with his nominees for ministers." He said the nomination of the ministers would come first, adding that "They will go through their screening until they are pronounced after they have been submitted by Mr. President. And Mr President will formally appoint his Ministers and swear them in."
