Tinubu to replace Chief of Staff, Gbajabiamila? - President breaks silence

President Bola Tinubu on Monday, October 30, played down reports doing the rounds that Femi Gbajabiamila may soon be replaced due to allegations of trading government appointments.

Some blogs have been reporting that an insider disclosed a reoccurring pattern that whenever Tinubu signs something, it will somehow be changed purportedly by his Chief of Staff (CoS).

The president requested that all “campaigns of calumny” against Gbajabiamila “must stop forthwith”.

Legit.ng reports that President Tinubu passed the vote of confidence on Gbajabiamila during the fourth Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting of his administration at the Council Chambers of the State House, Abuja.

He said:

“First of all, let me reiterate to all of you that I’ve heard the stories flying around. Mistakes will be made and perfection is only for God Almighty. I have 100% confidence in the integrity of my chief of staff.

"All campaigns of calumny against him must stop forthwith. If I make mistakes, I’m ready to own up to it.”
