President Bola Ahmed has made a U-turn and reinstated Sunday Adepoju as the Postmaster General of the Federation and Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Postal Service, NIPOST.
NIPOST disclosed this to DAILY POST in a statement on Friday.
“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has returned Rt. Honourable Adeyemi Sunday Adepoju as the Postmaster General of the Federation and Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST), citing Adepoju’s sterling leadership and excellent performance during his stay in office as the reason for his reinstatement”, a statement from NIPOST reads.
However, in a statement on Wednesday, Ajuri Ngelale announced Tola Odeyemi as the new Postmaster General/CEO.
When Kemi Filani News reached out to the Ministry of Communications, Innovations and Digital Economy for clarity, a top director who did not want to be mentioned said she could not confirm nor debunk the development.
Another deputy Director lamented how the federal government hires and sacks heads of agencies.
“It seemed like the country had turned into a banana republic. You sack the Head of an agency by mere press statement”, she stated.
