The new 36-member
Nigerian cabinet is being sworn in today, more than seven months after the
presidential election. It has been an extraordinary wait, but but finally the
cabinet is to start the job of governing. President Muhammadu Buhari vetted the
appointments to try to ensure the new ministers will not use their offices for
personal gain. As for the all-important oil ministry, which provides the
government with most of it revenue, the president has decided to oversee it
himself.
