The Presidency on Friday asked the public to disregard a trending list of ministers-designate and portfolios currently in circulation.

It added that President Muhammadu Buhari has yet to assign portfolios to the 43 ministers-designate who were confirmed by the Senate on Tuesday.

The President’s Personal Assistant on New Media, Bashir Ahmad, made this known in a message he posted on his Twitter handle.

Ahmad said Buhari would only announce portfolios after he must have inaugurated the cabinet members.

He wrote, “So someone decided to sit down and make a list of ministers-designate and also assigned portfolios to them?

“The assigned list is now being circulated and is trending on WhatsApp as usual.

“Disregard any list, please. Portfolios will be announced by Mr President after their inauguration as Ministers of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
