Group draws support for Lami Ahmed in Tinubu’s cabinet

From: Femi Oyelola, Kaduna

A group, under the auspices of the Concerned Citizens of Nigeria (CCN), has appealed to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to consider Lami Oyani Ahmed in his government.
The leader of the group, Sani Yero, requested while addressing journalists in Kaduna on Sunday, saying that the group finds it expedient to bring Mrs. Lami Oyani Ahmed to the fore considering her past achievements in the oil and gas sector.
The group said that the call became imperative, considering the role she played while in office as the Director of NNPC, North Central before her tenure was cut short, adding that she is a competent hand that the nation can not afford to miss in government, especially at a critical time like this when the president’s goal is to set the country’s economy on the right footing.
“It is no longer news that one of the factors that attracted both the youth and the old to the candidature of Tinubu/Shettima was the fact that they emphasized the inclusiveness of competence and corrupt free persons to be part of their government, and on this note, we are calling on the president and his vice to consider the qualities in Lami Oyani Ahmed.
“Record has it that amongst other Directors who served under the immediate past administration of Buhari, Mrs. Ahmed was the best, following her commitment and show of patriotism towards the nation building and reviving the sector.”
According to them, Mrs Ahmed had equally used her position to stabilize youth activities, and promoted peace and social justice, in all the geopolitical zones of Nigeria during her time in office.
“Mrs Ahmed is a woman of impeccable credentials and who enjoys a lot of goodwill from across the divides. Lami Onayi Ahmed has over 30 years of working experience in the entire value chain of the oil & gas industry.”
