I certainly can understand Minister PeeJay's omission but I don't understand Ursular.Yes she acted arrogant sometimes and said things best kept private but she was one of the best performing Ministers in the first term. I would get rid of the Ministers for the following ministries.1.Lands and Minierals 2. Sports 3.Chieftaincy 4. Interior and Local government 5.IGP 6.Foreign Ministry 7. Jobs creation 8.Sanitation. These are the people dragging down the government.
