One of the key changes was the transfer of the Ministry of Sports Development’s responsibilities to the National Sports Commission. Additionally, Senator John Owan Enoh was reassigned from Minister of Sports Development to Minister of State for Trade and Investment, a move that has stirred debate among sports enthusiasts across the country.
Vincent Ayang praised Enoh’s tenure in sports, stating, “@OwanEnoh did very well as a sports minister and should have been left there instead of moving him to a minister of state. This is not fair to Cross River State.”
This sentiment was echoed by Abraham Opeyemi, who expressed disappointment about the change. “What pained me most is the Minister of Sports. The man has been doing fantastic in that ministry, @OwanEnoh…now the new minister of sports just can’t be like Mr. Enoh,” he wrote on X.
However, some critics, including Edidem Alexander, disagreed, as he simply wrote, “Someone like John Owan Enoh ought to be out as Minister.”
While some stakeholders, including Benedict Adeyemi and the Super Eagles fan page @Cybereagles, welcomed Dikko’s appointment with congratulatory messages, with others viewing the broader cabinet reshuffle with scepticism.
