- Dr Maryam Shetty…replaced
SHARE THIS
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has withdrawn the nomination of Dr Maryam Shetty as a Minister.
He replaced her with Dr Mairiga Mahmud from Kano without giving a reason for the action.
Though no reason was given for Maryam’s replacement, The State Online gathered it might not be unconnected with the way the young lady trended on social media, especially on Twitter, for her nomination on account of inexperience.
A Twitter user with the name, Hon. Red Pen @wizmuckie tweeted, “Nigeria is a country where connections can make Dr. Maryam Shetty a minister. You see those people you refer to as friends now, they are the people you and your children will refer to as connections in the nearest future…My unsolicited advice for you, find the right people now and include them into your circle, whatever it takes…”
Another user, identified as Sarki. @Waspapping noted “Banter aside, having both Kwankwaso and Elrufai as ministers under BAT would’ve benefited Nigerians and especially Northerners a lot. But for some reason, PBAT picked Maryam Shetty with no known achievements over Kwankwaso who both the poor and average Nigerians adore.”
