UPDATE: AKUME RESUMES OFFICE AT ASO VILLA AS SGF
George Akume, a former minister of special duties and intergovernmental affairs, is now the government of the federation’s secretary.
In a meeting with the Progressive Governors Forum last Friday, President Bola Tinubu appointed Femi Gbajabiamila, Speaker of the House of Representatives, as his chief of staff and Akume as SGF.
The President, however, gave Akume the oath of office on Wednesday morning.
Akume then made his way to his office in Abuja’s Three Arms Zone.
He was welcomed in with a performance by a local band at precisely 3:30 p.m.
At the office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Akume was welcomed by the personnel, directors, and permanent secretaries.
