The Nigerian Constitution obligates the President and State Governors to hold regular meetings with Ministers and Commissioners respectively for the purposes of determining the general direction of the domestic and foreign policies of the government; and co-ordinating the activities of the executive members at both state and federal levels in the discharge of their executive responsibilities. Hence the importance of the appointment of Ministers and Commissioners in Nigeria. In recent times the appointment of persons into these two offices has been highly contentious in the country despite the fact some of the previous constitutional amendments have addressed some of these knotty issues.
