Kenneth Okonkwo, a leader in the Labour Party (LP), has criticized President Bola Tinubu’s administration for proposing 47 people for ministry posts.
Okonkwo questioned why the government was considering creating what he called “the most bloated bureaucracy in the world” when, in his opinion, the country is on track to become the poorest in the world.
The actor, a veteran of Nollywood, made this claim in a tweet on his Twitter account on Thursday.
According to him, the constitution only permits 37 ministers, not 47.

“What a regime? We are heading towards being the poorest country in the world, and this regime is considering setting up the most bloated bureaucracy in the world, which will lead to the highest cost of governance in the world. 47 Ministers when the government is only compelled to have 37.
“The money to be used to pay them will eventually be extorted from Nigerians through inordinate taxing and over-pricing of essential commodities and borrowing from outside sources because APC regimes produce nothing. I pity Nigerians under this clueless regime,” he tweeted.
