Bayo Omoboriowo, a photographer, has been retained in President Muhammadu Buhari’s new appointment of personal staff to aid him in carrying out domestic and official duties in his second term.
But what Nigerians are expecting is the announcement of the former military dictator’s ministerial list.
The list was released in a statement by Garba Shehu, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity.
