President Bola Tinubu will preside over his first council of state meeting today (Tuesday).
The meeting usually takes place in the executive council
chamber of the presidential villa.
A sitting president chairs the meeting, with the
vice-president as deputy chair.
The council of state is an organ of the federal government
saddled with the responsibility of advising the executive on policy making.
Members of the council are former presidents or heads of
state, former chief justices of Nigeria, president of the senate, speaker of
the house of representatives, governors, and attorney-general of the federation
(AGF).
The agenda for Tuesday’s meeting, which would be held at
noon, is expected to revolve around pressing national issues like food
security, national security, and economic policies.
The meeting comes just days after youths took to streets
across the country to protest Nigeria’s worst cost of living crisis in decades.
Food inflation has ballooned across Nigeria since Tinubu
assumed the reins in 2023.
