The current minister of state for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo(SAN) in a valedictory event for the outgoing administration of president Muhammadu Buhari, told the Nigeria's president that the position of "minister of state", is an aberration of the Nigeria's constitution.
He said the position of the "minister of state " is subject to ratification by another minister. He added that a minister of a state is also accountable to another minister; hence, not responsible for important decision and policy making. According to him, a minister of state plays a second fiddle to another minister.
In his remark, he informed president Muhammadu Buhari that his opinion is not a gesture of ingratitude to have served as a minister of state in his administration but to correct the trend and add to the democratic advancement of the country.
