President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has slashed travel expenses of the President, Vice President’s offices and all top government functionaries by 60 percent. The presidential spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale, disclosed this to State House Correspondents on Tuesday at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
He said the directive was issued as a cost-cutting measure on official travels.
Speaking further, Ngelale said It will also affect the offices of the President, Vice President, First Lady, and ministers.
“Tinubu has directed that all state entourages be drastically reduced, it is not a request but a directive”.
“The office of the president and staff will be affected. VP, appointees are affected. By this directive, there will be a slashing of expenditure on official travel by 60 per cent,” Ngelale said.
