Just In : House Speaker, Gbajabiamila reacts to reports he’s lobbying to be Tinubu’s Chief of Staff
Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, has reacted to the viral claim that he is lobbying to be appointed as Chief of Staff to President-elect, Bola Tinubu.
The lawmaker, who gave the reaction during a chat with correspondents in Abuja on Monday, said there is no iota of truth in the speculation.
When quizzed on the rumour, the speaker said: “I don’t know anything about that chief of staff thing,” adding that it was some people that were assuming he must be in line for the office, thinking he doesn’t care about his mandate.
“I was in Lagos and I could not leave Lagos because I was campaigning for my party.
“It’ll interest you to know that I was not here four years ago to pick up my certificate because I couldn’t make it,” he added.
