A former Minister of Aviation, Mr. Osita Chidoka has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to publish details of the independent review that led to sack of Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Mohammed Nanono and his power counterpart Power, Engr. Sale Mamman.

Chidoka said President Buhari’s assertion that the sack was based on, “independent and critical self-review” of sectoral performance and evaluation gave the impression that he evaluates the activities of his appointees through independent review and monitoring.

The former Corps Marshal of the Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC), who made his demand in a statement, also said it was imperative that the president publishes the rating of other sectors particularly security, education, health, road infrastructure, finance among other critical sectors as well as the criteria used.

“Mr. President is called out to immediately share with Nigerians the name(s) of the independent evaluators, the performance measurement criteria, the total result of the evaluation as well as the rating of other sectors particularly security, education, health, road infrastructure, finance among other critical sectors.

“Nigerians would like to know the outcome of the assessment of the security agencies, identifying the weaknesses and communicating the plans for strengthening the identified weak areas,” Chidoka added.

According to him, two of the nine priority areas of this administration were to expand access to quality education, affordable healthcare and productivity of Nigerians and “improve security for all.

“Nigerians would want to know what score the independent reviewers assigned to those responsible for growing the economy, expanding access to quality education and improving security in our country.

“They would want to know how education has improved with most schools in the Northwest closed and thousands of school children kidnapped as well as how our economy has improved with unaffordable costs of good and service and the fall of our naira to over N520 to the dollar.

“If Mr. President does not share these details, it would be safe to assume that the sack of Ministers is another perfunctory action couched in language to suggest that the evidently drifting country is under the control of an active pilot, when the reality on ground speaks the contrary, Chidoka said.
