Amaechi, Buhari and Fashola
Ahead of the swearing in of the ministerial nominees following their successful screening and confirmation by the senate last week, the Presidency has denied releasing any list that assigned portfolios to them.
The denial followed the speculated list of portfolios which made the rounds especially on social media on Sunday.
