Jonathan Reshuffles Cabinet to fill Spaces Created by Exited Ministers

President Goodluck Jonathan has partially reshuffled his cabinet to fill the space created by the exit of seven ministers, who resigned to seek elective offices in different state.

The cabinet reshuffle was announced yesterday after the Federal Executive Council Meeting held in Abuja and presided over by President Jonathan.
Briefing reporters at the end of the meeting, the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Dr Nurudeen Mohammed, said he will now oversee the Ministry of Information.
Dr Mohammed said that the ministers appointed to supervise other ministries were to act in the capacity pending when substantive ministers would be named.
