FG set to dissolve boards, managements of agencies 

President Bola Tinubu has directed the Secretary to the Government of the Federation George Akume to dissolve the boards of federal agencies and parastatals.

There are also indications that the planned dissolution will affect the managements of the agencies.

The development is said to be causing palpable fears among top government officials at many of the federal agencies

A report by Daily Trust quoted some senior government officials as saying that the dissolution would be announced soon.

One of the officials said the area of concern for them as civil servants was the ‘umbrella mode’ to be adopted in the dissolution, including those whose tenure are guaranteed by the enabling acts of their establishment.

Senior government officials said the dissolution would cut across all the MDAs and affect all political appointments made by the Buhari administration.

President Tinubu on June 14 ordered the indefinite suspension of AbdulRasheed Bawa as the chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to allow for proper investigation into his conduct while in office.
