Muhamadu Buhari, having clinched power in March on an anti-graft ticket, is now coming under fire as to why ministers have yet to be named one month after he came into power.

Nigeria’s President may still not name a cabinet until September as he takes time to find credible ministers and build a government untainted by the corruption of the past, say senior officials and party sources, as reported by Reuters.

His defeat of incumbent Goodluck Jonathan was seen as a positive step for Africa’s top oil producer, given the corruption scandals that have blighted previous administrations.

But Nigeria’s financial markets are starting to suffer as the post-election euphoria fades and the lack of a cabinet leaves investors waiting in vain for policy direction on issues as important as the currency and petroleum investment.
