In a shocking turn of events, President Bola Tinubu has reversed his recent appointment of Olufemi Adekanmbi as Project Coordinator for the Hydrocarbon Pollution Remediation Project (HYPREP). Adekanmbi, a former Commissioner for Special Duties, Culture, and Tourism in Ondo State, was appointed just two days ago, on Saturday.
According to a statement from the Presidency on Monday, President Tinubu has reinstated Professor Nenibarini Zabbey as the Project Coordinator of HYPREP, effective immediately. The statement cited a performance review as the reason for the reversal, concluding that Professor Zabbey is fit to continue discharging his functions in accordance with the project’s regulations.
This sudden move has sparked speculation about power plays within the Aso Rock Villa, with many wondering what prompted the President’s swift change of heart.
