Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinabjo has revealed that there would be no coordinating minister of the economy in the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.

The administration of former President, Goodluck Jonathan, introduced the designation of ‘coordinating Minister of the economy’.

Osinbajo revealed this on Wednesday, when the Australian High Commissioner to Nigeria, Jonathan Richardson, visited him in his office.

The Vice President noted that the economy was under his care.

“We are not going to have a system like where there was a coordinating minister. No, there would not be anything like that.”

“My role is to ensure that everyone that is involved in economic activities, that there is a way by which the President is fully apprised of what everyone is doing such that we are all on same page and to make it easier for the President to make decisions.”

“The Federal Government would be interested in exploring deeper relationship on economic cooperation as it is a major area in diversifying our economy.”
