The Presidency has reacted to a viral report circulating on social media suggesting that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has replaced his Chief of Staff, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, with his Principal Private Secretary, Hakeem Muri-Okunola.

Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to the President (Information and Strategy), in a statement on Thursday, added that “there is absolutely no truth to this story,” advising Nigerians to disregard it entirely.

He continued: “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.”
