President Bola Tinubu has opened up on his decision not to shrink the size of his 48-man cabinet following critics who described his cabinet as bloated.
President Tinubu made his intention known while speaking at his first media chat at his Bourdillon residence in the Ikoyi area of Lagos State on Monday, December 23.
According to the President, he is not ready to reduce the size of his cabinet, arguing that efficiency has been at the core of his selection of ministers.
