Real reasons Buhari moved Keyamo to Labour Ministry from Niger Delta Affairs

The anger, it was gathered was became very potent  after the ministerial announcements did not favour the state in any of the oil related ministries

It would be recalled  that President Muhammadu Buhari had initially announced Senator. Godswill Akpabio from Akwa Ibom State, as substantive Minister of Niger Delta Affairs and Festus Keyamo as Minister of State from Delta State.

From the recently released appointments into the NDDC board by President Buhari, Delta State also has the position of MD NDDC in the person of Bernard Okumagba.

However, after wide consultations with relevant stakeholders and to avoid what could gradually lead to a crisis, the president decided to assuage the cry of the Ondo oil bearing communities by reposting their son, Tayo Alasoadura from Labour to Niger Delta Ministry.
