President Muhammadu Buhari has dropped hints that his government would prune the number of ministries in the government bureaucracy because Nigeria is broke.

He also hinted that he appointed 36 ministers to fulfil the spirit of the constitution and that some of the ministers may not be assigned portfolios.

He said they would however sit at cabinet meetings.
