Purported Akume’s Removal From Office Is Mere Disinformation – Says SGF Office 

Posted on June 29, 2025
The Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation said its attention 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.
Reacting to the rumours, Segun Imohiosen, Director, Information & Public Relations said, “The SGF 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.”
