President Goodluck Jonathan has said he has no plans to change any of his ministers now.
Media reports over the last week have indicated that there are plans to change some of his ministers before May 29 when he would be one year in office.
Some of the reports said some names had already been submitted to the relevant security agencies for vetting, pending the submission of their names to the National Assembly.
In a statement issued by the special adviser to the president on media and publicity, Reuben Abati, the president said there is no truth whatsoever in the said reports.
"President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has implicit confidence in the ability of the current crop of ministers to deliver and has no plan to undertake any replacement at the moment. There is also no truth in the alleged tension among ministers as a result of the rumoured imminent cabinet change. This is a calculated attempt to cause disaffection within the cabinet and divert the attention of members of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) from their unwavering commitment to the implementation of the Transformation Agenda of the Jonathan Administration," the statement said.
