Just In : Tinubu Set To Take Much Awaited Action On Monday Amid Calls For His Resignation Over Certificate Controversy (DETAILS)
On Monday, October 16, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is set to reconvene the Federal Executive Council (FEC), marking 32 days since the inaugural cabinet session held on August 28, as reported by Thisday on Sunday.
In contrast to previous administrations, including the immediate-past administration led by Muhammadu Buhari, which held weekly FEC meetings, President Tinubu’s approach differs.
As per the Ministers’ Statutory Powers and Duties Act, the FEC, chaired by the President, serves as an advisory body to the President, outlining its constitutional role.
Back on August 21, President Tinubu administered the oath of office and inaugurated 45 ministers, who subsequently attended the inaugural cabinet meeting at the Council Chamber of the Presidential Villa in Abuja on August 28.
In the meantime, the Senate has recently confirmed three ministers – Balarabe Abbas Lawal (Kaduna), Jamila Bio Ibrahim (Kwara), and Ayodele Olawande (Ondo), who are anticipated to be sworn in on Monday before the cabinet meeting.
