Tinubu's ministerial list not yet ready – Alake 

The presidency has said that President Bola Tinubu‘s ministerial list is not ready.

The Special Adviser to the President on Special Duties, Communications and Strategy, Dele Alake who addressed journalists on Thursday, July 6, asked Nigerians to disregard rumours surrounding the awaited ministerial list.

Alake said;
