President Tinubu has reduced the travel expenses of government officials, both within the country and internationally, by 60 per cent.
Ajuri Ngelale, the presidential spokesperson, announced this to State House Correspondents at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Tuesday.
This decision was made as a cost-cutting measure for official travels and will also impact the travel expenses of the President, Vice President, First Lady, and ministers.
Ngelale stated that Tinubu has instructed that all state entourages be significantly reduced, emphasizing that this is not a request but a directive.
The directive will also affect the travel expenses of the President’s office, staff, and appointees, resulting in a 60 per cent reduction in official travel expenditures.
