President Tinubu Chooses Gbajabiamila as Chief of Staff
President Bola Tinubu has chosen and appointed the current Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, as Chief of Staff.
The announcement of his new appointment was disclosed on Thursday morning, by his Chief of Staff, Olanrewaju Smart Wasiu, via his official Facebook page.
The statement read, “After extensive deliberations and consultations, President Bola Tinubu has made his first appointment, selecting the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, as the President’s Chief of Staff.”
According to the statement, the President’s decision to appoint Gbajabiamila came after thoroughly evaluating various potential candidates among his loyalists.
Recall, Gbajabiamila secured a 6th term as the representative of Surulere Federal Constituency in Lagos State.
It, however, seems that Gbajabiamila, who is yet to receive his certificate of return from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), will now forego his sixth term in the House of Representatives to join the executive branch of government.
