Buhari took the mantle of leadership from ex-President Goodluck Jonathan on May 29 following his victory at the March 28 presidential election.
He has been facing criticisms from Nigerians, especially the opposition parties for not making necessary appointments after two months in office.
Explaining reason for the delay, Buhari in the article noted that he needed to take his time to make the right choice(s).
Buhari justified his action by not appointing any minister by making reference to his United States counterpart, Barrack Obama who also for several months after taking oath of office did not have his full Cabinet.
According to him, “When cabinet ministers are appointed in September, it will be some months after I took the oath of office. It is worth noting that Obama himself did not have his full Cabinet in place for several months after first taking office; the United States did not cease to function in the interim.
“In Nigeria’s case, it would neither be prudent nor serve the interests of sound government to have made these appointments immediately on my elevation to the presidency; instead, Nigeria must first put new rules of conduct and good governance in place.
Buhari further acknowledged that Nigerians elected him because they needed change, adding that the change cannot be achieved overnight due to the rot in the system.
“I was elected on a platform of change. I know this is what the people of Nigeria desire more than anything else. I know they are impatient for action. I realize the world waits to see evidence that my administration will be different from all those that came before. Yet reforming my country after so many years of abuse cannot be achieved overnight.
“In our campaigns against both Boko Haram and corruption, we should remain steadfast and remember, as it is said: “Have patience. All things become difficult before they become easy,” part of the article read.
