I GAVE UP MY FREEDOM WHEN I BECAME TINUBU’S CHIEF OF STAFF – GBAJABIAMILA
President Bola Tinubu’s Chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila, has admitted that he lost his freedom once he took on the role of CoS.
Gbajabiamila revealed that serving as Tinubu’s CoS has proven to be the most challenging task he has ever taken on, largely due to the president’s intense work ethic.
The former Speaker of the House of Representatives made this admission during a conversation, book reading, and signing event at the Capital Club in Victoria Island, Lagos.
He shared that Tinubu’s strength, expertise, and deep understanding of the work have made his role even more demanding.
According to Gbajabiamila: “Nothing in this world can prepare you for the role of Chief of Staff. First, you’d lose your freedom.
“As Speaker, you are your own boss, although you won’t be irresponsible with it. But as Speaker, I could travel to cool off anytime, just to return better and get the work done.
“Now, there’s a boss, one who is strong and knows his onions and even knows more than you. But it’s a welcome development. As Speaker, the buck stops on my table. But here, there is a boss.”
