President Bola Tinubu has terminated the appointment of Fegho Umunubo, his Special Assistant on Digital and Creative Economy, with the dismissal effective immediately.
The statement reads, “Stakeholders and constituents of the digital and creative economy, at home and abroad, as well as the general public are hereby notified that Fegho John Umunubo, who hitherto had served as the Special Assistant to the President on Digital and Creative Economy (Office of the Vice President), has been disengaged with immediate effect.
“Kindly note that he no longer represents this administration in any capacity.
“Henceforth, anyone who interfaces with him in the name of President Tinubu’s administration does so at his or her own risk.
“We urge all stakeholders and constituents of the digital and creative economy to be so guided.”
The announcement, confirmed by the presidency on Monday, marks a notable shake-up in the administration’s digital engagement strategy. Further details about the decision or whether Umunubo had breached any protocols remain undisclosed.
