President-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari Appeared to have dashed the hopes of the governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) When he rejected Their plans to submit the ministerial list to him. The APC governors, led by Governor Rocks Okorocha of Imo State, had, last Tuesday, visited Buhari in Abuja to pledge loyalty and make some demands. At the meeting, some requests Were Placed on the table openly, while the request to drop the list of possible ministers cam up for discussion behind the closed door.Sources close to the meeting between the Governors and General Buhari Indicated que the state chief executives cam out of the visit with heavy minds.
Planning to maintain the tradition already instituted by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) where the state governors the party leaders in the states are requested to submit list of possible ministers and Ambassadorial appointees to the president, the governors threw the request at Buhari. But it was learned que the General rejected the proposal and declared que the Constitution does not mandate him to take a list of ministerial nominees from Them.
