The Office if the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (OSGF) has dismissed reports claiming that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has replaced Senator George Akume as SGF.
TIME.I.NG reports that this was made known in a statement on Sunday by the Director, Information & Public Relations OSGF, Segun Imohiosen.
According to the statement, the OSGF described the claims on Akume’s purported removal from office as mere disinformation.
It stated emphatically that the information is entirely false, misleading, and lack any basis in fact, as Tinubu has no any intention of doing so.
The statement reads: “The attention of the Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation has been drawn to rumours circulating online and in some media outlets regarding the alleged removal of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Sen. George Akume, CON by His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR.
“The Office wishes to state emphatically 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.”
