President Bola Tinubu, on Monday, October 30, expressed his
unreserved faith in his Chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila.
President Tinubu, who spoke just before the commencement of
the week’s Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting inside the Council Chambers,
State House, also set the ground rules for the attendance of the meeting.
The president spoke to issues he had observed and had not
been comfortable with, including unauthorized persons gaining access into the
Council Chambers of the State House.
He said: “First of all, let me reiterate to all of you the
fact that a lot of stories are going around about what is happening. I’ve told
everyone in this country that I can make mistakes, they’re bound to air them
out and correct them.
“Perfection is that of God Almighty. I have absolute confidence
in the integrity of my Chief of Staff. All campaigns of calumny and
insinuations should stop, the buck stops here.
“If I make a mistake
I’m ready to own up to it and we’re all joining hands to fight corruption and
we want to enforce the law along with you.”
Meanwhile, the Council gave a minute of silence for a former
member of FEC and one-time Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Alhaji
Adamu Fika, who died last week at the age of 90 years.
The Council is in progress with the Secretary to the
Government of the Federation (SGF), Senator George Akume; Head of the Civil
Service of the Federation, Dr Folasade Yemi-Esan; Chief of Staff to the President,
Honourable Gbajabiamila; National Security Adviser (NSA), Mallam Nuhu Ribadu;
and virtually all the ministers, in attendance.
