 CHIEF OF STAFF GBAJABIAMILA NOT REPLACED BY MURI-OKUNOLA


The Presidency has dismissed reports that the Chief of Staff to the President has been replaced.

In a statement issued by the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, the Presidency described as false and misleading claims circulating on social media that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu had replaced his Chief of Staff, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, with his Principal Private Secretary, Hakeem Muri-Okunola.


There is absolutely no truth to this story. We advise Nigerians to disregard it entirely.


The Chief of Staff remains in his position. The Principal Private Secretary likewise remains in his role. Hakeem Muri-Okunola has not replaced Femi Gbajabiamila as Chief of Staff.


The viral claim is a fabrication by mischievous purveyors of fake news whose sole aim is to create disharmony within the government.


We reiterate that news media should always verify their information before publishing or sharing on social media.
