America Has 15 Ministers' -Daniel Bwala Counters An APC Chieftain Who Said 45 Ministers Isn't Enough

Daniel Bwala, a PDP Chieftain, responded to an APC member’s claim that the appointment of 45 ministers by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is insufficient. The APC member, Aliyu Audu, argued on Channels TV in a video (Watch The Video From 50:55 Minutes) that with our population size, more ministers were needed to ensure effective governance.

However, Bwala disagreed with both the premise and conclusion of Audu’s statement. He stated, “I disagree with his argument that Nigeria’s population of over 200 million requires more ministers. The United States, with a population of over 300 million, has 15 ministers and 9 special assistants, totaling 24 cabinet members. Despite this, they are the world’s leading economy. The budget for New York’s fire service in 2003 surpassed Nigeria’s national budget, yet they maintained 15 ministers and still do.”

“I disagree with the emphasis on minister count; it seems his concern is more about politics than governance.”
