(BREAKING)NIPOST: Workers reject newly appointed CEO, shut down head office

Workers of the Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST) have shut down the head office of the service in Abuja, protesting against the appointment of Tola Odeyemi as Chief Executive Officer/Post Master General.

Chief Ajuri Ngelale, Presidential spokesman, had announced last week that President Bola Tinubu made some changes in the leadership of communication agencies, including NIPOST.

However, moments after the news of Tola Odeyemi’s appointment broke, there were reports that Adepoju, the sacked Post Master-General had been reinstated.

In a viral video, the sacked Adepoju was seen addressing some workers claiming President Tinubu had reappointed him. A development that caused a lot of confusion in NIPOST.

But on Monday, the protesting workers denied entry to the newly appointed NIPOST CEO, Tola Odeyemi, saying her appointment was against their wish.

The workers, who said they preferred Adepoju, chanted solidarity songs and wielded placards.
