Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, a former chief whip in the Senate, praised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the calibre of ministerial nominations forwarded to the Senate.
The former governor of Abia State claimed Tinubu has demonstrated a profound awareness of the complexities and difficulties of the country’s polity with the ministerial list in a video posted via his official Facebook page on Friday.
The recently revealed ministerial list, according to the Abia Senator, shows the president’s keen understanding of Nigeria’s socio-political environment.

Senator Kalu also stated that the president is laying out his strategy with the cabinet list and demonstrating that he is prepared to compete for office again in 2027.
He said: “For me, the President has demonstrated the capacity of understanding the diversity and geographical spread of Nigeria.
“I know many people will be complaining that some zones get more, and some did not get more, yes, it is in order, the constitution provides that every state must have one but I appeal that he should give south east one more to be able to have the sixth one that they used to have.
“To be honest with you, the ministerial list have shown that the president will understand the fundamental problems of Nigerians. Tinubu has shown an understanding of the rudiments of political processes.”
