BREAKING: Senate approves Tinubu’s request to appoint 20 special advisers

 The senate has approved a request from President Bola Tinubu
to appoint 20 special advisers.

 

Tinubu’s request was read by Senate President Ahmad Lawan on
the floor of the upper legislative chamber on Tuesday.

 

The president did not list the names of the prospective
special advisers.

 

After the letter was read, the upper legislative chamber
gave speedy approval to the request.

 

The senate president said it is of “utmost urgency” that the
president has a team to work with.

 

“Because there is no name for special advisers we will just
approve it from here,” Lawan said.

 

“We feel that that this is something of utmost urgency.”

 

The development came days after Tinubu announced the
appointment of Femi Gbajabiamila, the outgoing speaker of the house of
representatives, as his chief of staff.

 

George Akume, former minister of special duties, was named
the secretary to the government of the federation (SGF).

 

Ibrahim Hassan Hadejia, a former deputy governor of Jigawa
state, was appointed deputy chief of staff.
