Presidency debunks rumours of SGF Akume’s removal
The Presidency has dismissed circulating reports alleging that Senator George Akume has been replaced as Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), describing the claims as completely false and misleading.
In a statement released by Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, the Presidency reaffirmed that Senator Akume remains firmly in his position. “There has been no change in the status of His Excellency, Senator George Akume, as Secretary to the Government of the Federation,” the statement read.
The Presidency also clarified that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who is currently in Saint Lucia, has not made any new appointments. It described the rumour as the handiwork of mischief makers intent on misleading the public.
Nigerians have been advised to disregard what it termed “fake news,” warning against the spread of unverified reports capable of causing unnecessary tension in the country.
