According to Sani: “I will advise President Tinubu to becareful not to make the mistakes of President Buhari, and I believe he isexperienced to understand this.
“Under President Buhari, you have ministers that wereappointed into office for the whole of eight years; they were with him for thefirst tenure and the second tenure, and there was no cabinet reshuffle, noremoval.
“Even if there was a removal, it takes three to four monthsto replace a minister. That was the way the country was governed.
“Under Buhari, we have seen nepotism at its peak wherepeople were appointed into office and left there even if they did nothing.
“Service chiefs were retained in office despite theirfailures, and by retaining them, you destroyed the careers of those behindthem. For many years, many officers were retired to appoint one person.”
