The National leader of the governing All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu, is disenthralled with President Muhammadu Buhari over the ministerial list submitted to the Senate last week, Daily Trust gathered.
Tinubu is said to be despondent with President Buhari for neglecting to consult him on the decision of chosen people from the South-West.
A source near Tinubu who talked with Daily Trust Sunday said his pity was predicated on the way that the President had earlier promised to consult him before picking nominees from his zone.
"To Tinubu's most prominent amazement, he was just sent a rundown's duplicate on the very day it was sent to the Senate President", the source said.
The ministerial nominees from the South-West are: Babatunde Fashola (Lagos); Dr. Kayode Fayemi (Ekiti); Barrister Adebayo Shittu (Oyo) and Mrs. Femi Adeoshun (Ogun).
It is trusted that Tinubu was not counseled before the candidates from his zone were chosen; a development that a few analysts believe is capable of putting President Buhari and Tinubu on a political collision course.
On the other hand, having understood the ramifications of such an advancement, the source said the presidency has approached Tinubu with a promise of placating him in the list that is expected to be released by the president subsequently.
The pioneer has been quiet subsequent to the list was made public.
