Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, the Ag President, has eventually established a working cabinet inspite of the political uncertainty surrounding the Presidency.

I HAVE not personally encountered Professor Ruqayat Rufai, the new Minister for Education. It does not matter. What matters is that I have seen evidence of her abilities, and I think the person who recommended her to Acting President Goodluck Jonathan for posting to Education is a patriot.

I do not know when lawyers and journalists will be permitted to see our president. The clerics have seen him, both Muslim and Christian. They must be the ones at the top of the ladder of the holy. We here, on distant earth from heaven, call them the men of God.

If you are wondering what that palaver is all about, let me tell you; because if you are a parent or guardian, with a kid likely to be called for service, this concerns you.
