Fegho John Umunubo |
In a sudden move that has sent ripples through Nigeria's political circles, the State House announced the immediate disengagement of Fegho John Umunubo, a key media aide to Vice-President Kashim Shettima.
The announcement was made official on Monday via a statement signed by State House spokesperson, Abiodun Oladunjoye. The statement provided a clear and direct notification to the public and key stakeholders.
The government's communiqué explicitly warned that Umunubo "no longer represents this administration in any capacity." It further issued a stern caution, stating that anyone who interacts with him under the guise of the Tinubu administration does so "at his or her own risk."
Notably, the official statement did not disclose the specific reasons behind the sudden dismissal of the Special Assistant on Digital and Creative Economy. The lack of a cited reason is likely to fuel speculation regarding the circumstances leading to this decisive action from the Tinubu government.
