He is better off with technocrats of repute than positioning himself for failure. Ministerial positions shouldn’t be the retirement plan of any politician.”
Speculations on Secretary to the Government of Federation Appointment
Rumors have been circulating regarding President Tinubu’s intention to appoint Senator George Akume, the immediate-past Minister of Special Duties and a former Governor of Benue State, as the new Secretary to the Government of Federation (SGF).

According to Western Post, Tinubu has chosen Senator Akume, a longtime ally, for the prominent position.
The official announcement of Akume’s appointment, along with other personal aides of the President, is expected to take place between Friday and Monday of the following week.
Unhappiness Over Speaker Position
