Nigeria’s President, Bola Tinubu, has given his son-in-law a job as the leader of the Federal Housing Authority. This has made people worried about nepotism.
Oyetunde Oladimeji Ojo is married to Mr. Tinubu’s oldest daughter, Folashade.
This is the first time President Tinubu has chosen a family member to work for the federal government.
The presidency said Mr. Ojo has worked in housing and hospitality for more than 10 years.
He used to be a member of the House of Representatives.
But many people on social media are upset and saying that there were other people who were better and deserved the job more than Mr.
“Showing favoritism to family and friends is a bad quality in a leader. ” “The fact that Nigerian leaders don’t consider it a moral failure is sad,” someone wrote on X.
Some people support Mr. Ojo being named for the role and say that his connection to the president should not stop him from getting government jobs.
He was chosen by the president to help change how the housing ministry is run.
The FHA, managed by the government, helps to provide low-cost homes in Nigeria.
The government has not said anything yet about the complaints about the appointment.
