Doyin Okupe, a former Director-General of the Peter Obi 2023 presidential campaign council, has visited President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Okupe, a former presidential aide, met with Tinubu at the Presidential Villa on Thursday.
Details of the meeting between the duo have not been disclosed of the time of this report.
Meanwhile, Okupe has recently applauded President Tinubu’s recent cabinet reshuffle, particularly his decision to scrap what he termed “superfluous ministries.”
Speaking in an interview last Thursday in Lagos, Okupe highlighted the strategic role played by global auditing firm KPMG in the process that led to the dismissal of some ministers.
He said, “President Tinubu has done the needful by his mid-term rejig of his cabinet. Scrapping superfluous ministries is in line with removing waste and making government compact and effective. This is commendable.
“For the first time, removal of ministers from the cabinet has not been arbitrary or sentimental, apart from an in-house key performance index report.
“KPMG is also said to be involved in critical performance assessment of the ministers.”
According to the politician, Nigerians expect the president and his new cabinet to pull up their bootstrings and address the nation’s issues.
