President Bola Ahmed Tinubu

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is expected to appoint Senator George Akume, the immediate-past Minister of Special Duties and former Governor of Benue State, as the new Secretary to the Government of Federation (SGF).

President Tinubu’s decision is intended to appease the North Central zone ahead of the race for 10th National Assembly leadership.

According to the Western Post, Tinubu has chosen Senator Akume, a long-time ally, to be his successor.

According to available information, the President is expected to formally announce Senator Akume’s appointment, along with that of other personal aides, between Friday and Monday next week.

WITHIN NIGERIA reports that members of the North-central zone and the All Progressives Congress are dissatisfied with their exclusion from consideration for the position of Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Since his inauguration as Nigeria’s 16th President on Monday, many political actors and Nigerians have been anticipating the appointment of personal aides to the President, sparking numerous speculations on social and mainstream media.

According to reports, President Tinubu has appointed the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, as his Chief of Staff.

Gbajabiamila, on the other hand, denied the appointment, urging Nigerians to ‘allow the system to work.’
