OSGF in a statement on Sunday state that the information is entirely false, misleading, and lack any basis in fact, as Mr. President has no any intention of doing so.

“The purported removal of the SGF from Office is only but a fabrication and a figment of the imagination of mischief makers who are out there to disinform and misinform the innocent public.

“President Tinubu reposes unwavering confidence on the capacity of the SGF to discharge his statutory obligation of formulating and implementing policies and programmes of the Renewed Hope Agenda of the administration.

“We urge the public, media organisations, and digital platforms to discountenance such rumours and to exercise caution as well as verify the authenticity of information before disseminating it as spreading unverified or intentionally false narratives not only undermines public trust but also poses a threat to the integrity of our institutions.

“Congruously, the previous press statement issued by the SA to Mr. President on Media and Strategy, Chief Bayo Onanuga resonates in no small measure the position of the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation on this matter. Therefore, Senator Dr. George Akume CON, remains the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.

The rumours began after the sudden resignation of the National Chairman of All Progressives Congress, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje.

Ganduje’s exit gave indication that the next suitable politician for the position was the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Senator George Akume.

Multiple sources also said Tinubu was considering Hadiza Bala Usman, ex-Managing Director of the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), as the next SGF.
