The Federal Executive Council has set up a six man panel to visit Yar'Adua in saudi Arabia. Tax payers money in action!
Imagine, they have set up another team to go visit Yar'Adua in Saudi Arabia! This would not be the first team/delegation sent to Saudi Arabia to ascertain Yar'Adua's state of health. Governors, "close aides", delegation from the ruling party PDP, delegation from the House of Representatives and even the Sultan of Sokoto have all been to Saudi Arabia to see the ailing President. They all returned with the same message - they did not see the President! Members of this new team are:
1. The Secretary to the Government of the Federation - Yayale Ahmed
2. The Minister for Health - Babatunde Oshotimehin
3. Minister for Foreign Affairs - Ojo Maduekwe
4. Minister for Petroleum Resources - Rilwanu Lukman
5. Minister for Justice and Attorney General of the Federation - Adetokunbo Kayode (SAN)
6. Minister for Agriculture - Sayyadi Abba Ruma
Well, I wish them a safe trip to Saudi Arabia and back. If they return with a different report (ie that they were granted access to the President), then that will be a big plus. Read full story here.
More trouble seem to be brewing for the embattled erstwhile Attorney General of the Federation, Mr. Mike Aondoakaa. The purported apology letter he wrote to Prof. Akunyili has been rejected. Akunyili said the apology was not acceptable on the grounds that it was not clear. She wants him to clear all ambiguities contained in the said letter. Please read the full letter here.
