At the meeting were Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun, the Minister of Budget and Economic Planning, Senator Atiku Bagudu, and the Minister of State for Petroleum (Gas), Ekperikpe Ekpo.
Also at the meeting were the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Yemi Cardoso and the Executive Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), Zacch Adedeji.
Although the agenda of the meeting was not made public, it was learnt that it was a routine meeting in which holders of sensitive positions brief the president on activities in their offices.

The FIRS boss is also expected to inform President Tinubu about the steps taken to ensure the successful implementation of the four tax bills recently signed into law.
