Former military administrator of Lagos State, Maj. Gen. Mohammed Buba Marwa (retd.), has commended President Muhammadu Buhari’s recent appointments describing it as a plus to the entire nation.
In a statement issued by his media aide, Bello Zubairu, Marwa specifically praised the Babachir David Lawal as the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.
He said Lawal’s appointment “is not only a plus to his tribe or state or the North but the country as a whole.”
He described Lawal as an accomplished businessman and pastor whose military background will in no little way ensure high level of discipline and impact positively on his duties as SGF.
“He will no doubt bring new sense of direction into office and as an engine room of government, we are sure the President will get honest advice and as such policies will be well implemented and properly monitored.
“From every indication, the President has started well by putting merit and the nation ahead of any other considerations in these major decisions taken so far. He will however need the support of every citizen for these sincere efforts to yield fruitful manifestations that will benefit the citizenry,” Marwa added.
