The SAN also mentioned Kemi Adeosun, minister of finance and Rotimi Amaechi as others who are proficient in their various ministries.
Sagay said: “In my view, most of the ministers or shall I say a substantial members of his cabinet are doing very well. Take for example Babatunde Fashola, Minister of Power, Works and Housing. He is doing excellently well.
"It will be madness to change a man like that who is so much on top of the job and is really doing very well on all the arms of his ministry which are three.
“It will be a setback for this country if a man like that is taken to another ministry. He has to start learning afresh, learning the ropes afresh and to put another person in the Ministry of Power, Works and Housing to start learning afresh in such a critical ministry will be a grave mistake.
“Also, Kemi Adeosun the Minister of Finance is also doing extremely well. If you look at Rotimi Amaechi, Minister of Transport he is doing very well. I have just mentioned three and there are others who are also doing very well.
