In what appears to be a shake up in Nigeria’s ministries, President Muhammadu Buhari has sacked some permanent secretaries ahead of tomorrow’s swearing-in of ministers.

Buhari revealed their sack at a meeting with the Chief of Staff to the President, Abba Kyari, and the Head of Civil Service of the Federation, Mrs Winifred Oyo-Ita.

The sack is believed to affect at least 17 permanent secretaries.

It would be recalled that Buhari received reports from the permanent secretaries, using the opportunity to assess the performances of the PS.
