Professor Pat Utomi, a political economist and ally of the Labour Party candidate, Peter Obi, has distanced himself from a circulating list of alleged new appointees and ministers to serve in President Bola Tinubu’s administration. The list, being circulated on social media, purports that he will serve as a minister in Tinubu’s government.
However, Utomi, through his media aide, Charles Odibo, released a statement urging Nigerians to disregard the list, according to Sahara Reporters. That he is only focused on completion of his books and has never had any discussion on government appointments.
